 Meanwhile, officials of the bat tered penitentiary harvested an- other crop-of dangerous weap- ons, broken glass, and damaged fixtures, toting up a bill that may run into six figures.

 Around them stood guards carrying guns and clubs, alert against any revival of the revolt which started Tuesday morning with the seizure of nine hostages and control of most of the prison.
 Meanwhile, officials ordered the B tough convicts who sparked the revolt into a section where cells are equipped with new lock ing devices. They will be kept there until they can be confined to a new maximum security building designed to minimize a repeti- tion of the rebellion.

Burmese Prime Minister Explains Troublesome
 Statement on Red China

DETROIT, R-Prime Minister U Nu of Burma explained yester- day how he got the impression in Washington "that most of the re- Sponsible people are not against" the admission of Red China to the United nations and that it was a matter of timing. U Nu said it was his own "view" and nothing that was said specifically by anyone.
 Announcing a policy of answer ing no more questions by news men during his stay in the United States, U Nu issued a prepared statement to explain his remark on Red China at a news confer epce in New York.
 His remarks in New York had stirred up a number of Congress and led to demand by Sen. Bridges (R-ND that the Prime Minister name the Ire sponsible officials" who gave him that impression.

THE GIGLI FAREWELL

Last year there was Marti-
nelli, this Wednesday we have
another farewell concert by
one of the great singers from
the golden era Of the Met.
Beniamino Gigli, who is max
ing a post-season appearance
under the banner Of the Hayes
Concert Bureau, sang here in
1888, when for many he was
still wearing the mantle Of
Caruso, the most widely &C
claimed Italian operatic tenor
of modern times.
That Signor Gigli will have
a voice still in its prime is too
much to expect, but that he
will use it as well as he has
ever done is not improbable.
If so, he will still be one of a
small class, for there are far
more good voices than there
are good singers.
TITO" ONCE MORE

will be at the Agriculture Au-
ditorium, with an $3.50 curtain.

however, a fact-an improve
ment of Benjamin Franklin's
set of glasses containing various
amounts of water which gave
each tumbler a definite pitch.
The later instrument was
played not by a finger rubbed
around the damp edge of the
glasses. but by a keyboard.
I have heard records Of the
instrument, but have never
seen one. A rumor that some
one in Washington has a glass
harmonica has been alive for
five or six years, but the
identity of the individual is
unknown. Perhaps he could
make his instrument available
for the not too infreque t per-
formances of Mozart's Adagio
and Rondo, K GIT, for harmon
lea. flute. oboe, viola and cello.
It is usually given with piano.

The season for formal mu-
steal concerts is drawing to q
close, and until the summer
festival opens in the Carter
Barron Amphitheater next
month, activity will have little
of its usual urgency for one
of the three principal groups
engaged in the art OF music
the listener.
The composer now has time
to write and the player to play.
but the local consumer, II ne is
still in the market, has little
more than the radio. the
photograph. and. If lucky, an
amiable friend who is a per-
former, to. satisfy his needs.
This listener is one OF the
most important factors OF to-
DAYS musical scene, and. what
is probably more surprising, ne
is a comparative newcomer.
In the known history OF mu-
sic which stretches back q
thousand years or more. we
find the listener among the
dramatis personae. for only
about a century and a half.
The performer came first
if you will bear with conjecture
the performer who was a
composer only at the moment
he sang or beat or blew.
The fully -fedged composer
followed hard upon. it is true.
but the listener who is neither
composer nor player is a
phenomenon of modern times.
Art music as opposed to folk
music was, in the early days,
written mainly for the church.
Ingenuity, care and artistry
were lavished upon 1t to a
degree never surpassed, but 1t
seems evident the composer
was looking for his audience IN
the singers who performed his
music, rather than in the con-
gregation.
Although in the great days
of polyphony secular melodies
were slyly woven into rellg-
ious music, it was a mixture
appreciated only by the con-
nolsseurs, not, it is safe to
say, by groundlings. To them
music was part of the service,
vaguely to be enjoyed, per-
haps, but not to be listened to
any more than the most adroit
movie score today is to be
listened to.

This haunting, evocative
music, is persuasively per-

don's disc. On my copy, un-
fortunately, the grooves in
these additional pieces aren't
able to reproduce smoothly
some of Dances more intense
upper tones, an old problem
I thought London had con-
quered by now.
Another matter is even less
Understandable. London's
jacket dutifully notes that
Ravel above all sought to suit
the music to his texts, in the
case of "Sheherazade" even
going to the length of causing
the poet to read his own words
aloud Yet the jacket then
blithely omits printing them.
How would Ravel react to this
treatment of his intentions?

composer has blended voice

Eleanor Steber.
For a composer much
maligned for his alleged addic-
ton to elephantine orchestra

hardly be found than in the
restrained accompaniments to
the six exquisite songs of this
cycle (of which Barzun says
Absence" is the gem, but
they are all gems). In an
other song on this disc-the
familiar LA Captive"-Berlioz
calls for two string bands, but
it is to achieve a pianiSsimo,
not the opposite. "Zaide," a
bolero, and lie Jeune Patre

I think Columbia's engineers,
who are inclined to give their
singers an advantage over the
accompaniment anyway, have
taken the modesty Of Berlioz'

One of the very few con-
sequential modern additions
to the repertoire, it is given
a sparkling rendition. The
old Szigeti- -Beecham version
remains a musical landmark.
but this is the first one to

The one respect in which
this record bellies the concert

practically outsounds its en-

sound merely its own size.
