private land titles.
If the government wanted a
specific site for a new street. store
or business building, the ex-
owner got nothing. If the gov
Iernment did not need his land
the former owner could get a
99-year lease and, subject to
finding the money and building
materials, reconstruct a private
dwelling. Qualifying this privi-
lege are rules against building
for rental profit or building any
single residence OF more than
five rooms.

OF
Til E P A S T
BY CAROLYN Lloyd

There was big news last week.
Winston Churchill stepped down
. Prime minister of England; an
er bomb test was made in New
Mexico; and a woman appeared at
a Washington reception in a dress
exactly like. the one Mrs. Eisen-
hover wore. The latter incident
got almost as much space in the
newspapers and news magazines
as did the other two events.
though it hardly seems to have
earth shaking significance. Per-
haps it was a relief to reporters
to have something light to write
about, or maybe they actually
thought that the women of the
world would be greatly concerned.
1t is true that all women readers
probably felt a pang of sympathy
for Mrs. Crane, the lady who wore
the duplicate dress; and at the
same time applauded the good
craftsmanship of the First Lady.
1t is probably true, as well, that
there was few well-bred smokers
among the ladies present at the
reception, for it is human nature
to be amused at the minor dis
comforts of others.
After looking at pictures of the
two ladies in the identical dresses,
have an idea that the general
reaction was, ooh, Mamie, what
are you doing in that dress any
how" The sad fact is that as far
as appearance is concerned, Mrs.
Eisenhower came out second best.
However gracious and charming
she may be, the truth is that she
is a bit plump for her height and
that the taffeta print emphasized
the fact. To make it worse, one
full-length picture showed that the
hem of her dress was liked up in
front. Poor Mrs. Eisenhower
every woman makes a mistake in
choosing a dress once in a while,
but she doesn't have to endure the
embarrassment of having the mis-
take advertised to the world. That
should be a lesson to any little
girl whose ambition might be to
become the First Lady of the
Land. She should know that other
women might get by with an oc-
casional shiny nose, sagging hem
line, or straggly curls; but run
in the stocking of the wife of the
President of the United States
makes headlines. So it has been
with every woman who ever oc-
cupied the White House, and it is
no wonder that most of them have
drawn signs of relief when they
babe it farewell. After all, by the
time woman's husband is elected
to the Presidency, she has passed
the first flush of youth and is no

SCHOOL OFFICIALS PAY
A VISIT TO OCRACOKE

Three state school officials
from Raleigh and the Hyde Coun-
ty elementary supervisor paid a
visit to the Ocracoke School last
week.
Homer Lassiter, member of the
division of Institutional service,
Miss Cora Bomar, state library
adviser, and Miss Helen Stewart,
adviser in physical education,
spent Monday and Tuesday work
ing with the Ocracoke students
and teachers. Miss Bette Swim
dell, supervisor from Engelhard,
remained throughout the week
and administered standard tests
in the school.
Periodically, these officials
make visits to all schools in Hyde
County; since it is not convenient
to visit Ocracoke as often, the
stay there is usually longer.

longer a glamor girl, if she ever
was one. At an age when most
women can relax and stop worry
ing about face and figure, she
must face the pitiless cameras
eye day after day.
Every now and then someone
speculates on the possibility of a
women's being elected President
of the United States. Should that
happen we might expect to see
newspaper headlines like this:
international Crisis Narrowly
Averted When President Appears
at the U. N. with Slip Showing.
Foreign Representatives Term 1t
Deliberate Affront."
My guess is that Mrs. Eisen-
hover will be glad to see the day
when she can put on just any old
thing and loaf around the house
without it's being reported to the
world. BY now she probably
agrees with Emily Dickinson's
lines:
"How dreary to be somebody
How public like a frog
To tell your name the livelong
day
To an sdmiring bog"

the three-tiered birthday cake
which was iced in white with

the table hors d'ouevres were
served by Mr.. Tillett and Mrs.

leading to. the nifnble- fingered
thief or thieves who took eight
tiny but priceless statuettes from

The case was a museum direc-
tors nightmare. The little silver
figures had been lent from eight
other collections for 3 special
exhibit called sculpture in Sill
yer From Islands Of Time"
Although police were not noti-
ned Of the theft until yesterday,
Museum Director Edgar C,
Schenck said it had been discov-
cred nearly "a hotirs earlier at
4:30 pm. Saturday. The delay
in calling police was to give nlu-
scum officials time to tell the
lending institutions Of the loss,
he explained.
Police started on the day-oid
trail yesterday by checking the
glass display cases for finger
prints. They announced they
would question museum en-
ployes closely today and would
comb the city's pawnshops and
curio stores.
Guard Outside in Hall
The theft occurred while the
museum was open. A guard was
stationed in the hall outside the
second-noor exhibit room. He
did not have the exhibit Of
statuettes in view all the time,
but checked them periodically.
The missing figures were
among 80 on display and were
enclosed In four separate cases.
The cases were not damaged.

da Requiem These are at
opposite poles. The Oliver
sions," a theme and variations
with the piano part restricted
to left hand. suggests at times
Shostakovich. at other times
D'Indy and at still others
merely a Delius-sort Of quiet
English countryside. There is
even a melody suggesting Cop
land. which isn't odd since the
piece was written when Brit.
ten was in Maine in 1910.
The Requiem, by contrast. is
almost starkly somber, at
times even bordering on the
grotesque. and at the moment
my own feeling about it is not
quite decided. In places, how
ever. it is very effectively done.
Whatever else may be said,
Britten Is at least interesting.
The composer is at the helm
in this London coupling, with

ing the keyboard requirements.
The acoustical qualifications
of the piano piece almost put

TURNTABLE TALK
BY JAMES G. DEANE

Angels penchant for turn
ing out attractive vocal records
has produced as its latest fruit
Q pair Of collections, one
French, the other Spanish,
sung by Nan Merriman.
I don't know whether or not
the Merriman family tree in
cludes any forbears of either
Of the two nationalities repre-
sented, but If not the evidence
proves that it is irrelevant.
Merriman for some time has
seemed one of the most vocally
reliable mezzos around, and
these discs show her to be one
Of the more versatile.
In the engaging Spanish
repertoire, which ranges
through pieces by Mompou.
Pittaluga. Turina, Ohradors
and Falla, the singing shifts
from romantic melancholy to
vivid energy and back again
with no apparent effort. I re-
call de los Angeles on an ear
lier disc producing sometimes
o prettier sound. but that is
q high standard, and Merri-
man sings with perhaps even
more particular zest.
II my own preference runs
to the French disc. it is be-
cause Of a special inclination
to the Debussy items filling
one side, the "Chansons de
Bilitis." "Fetes q alantes,
''Mandoline," lie Jet d'Eau"
and "Ballade des Femmes de

ment of the wares oh the other

this idea. You can't help
thinking Britten must be quite
q droll fellow, whatever his
ultimate destiny.
Next at hand is the set of
variations and a fugue which
Britten based on a theme by.
and dedicated to, Frank
Bridge, his music teacher for
many years. Here one is re-
minded Of Elgar's habit of de-
picting friends in music, for
the variations make an appeal
ing character portrait, some
times whimsical and at others
quite serious. 1t is very deftly
done.

that with the exceptional
