tumble Of mangrove islands in
Florida Bay. Even If you don't
get to Miami, you can take SINH
lar tours from Fort Lauderdale
and Okeechobee.
Anhinga Trail is a curious af-
fair winding away from a dirt
road into the heart of the Ever
glades mystery. 1t is largely a
wooden walkway elevated from
the water by piling. 1t gives
tourists a look at a variety of
wildlife, 'coons, alligators, a host
Of strange birds and countless
other assorted varmints. A guide
and the rangers of the Ever
glades National Park come along
to point out and explain the
curious creatures and to contain
the enthusiasm of novices.
Tiny, Shaded Conols
After leaving Anhinga Trail,
the tour continues to the other
worldly tangle and tumble of
Lake Ingraham and Cape Sable.
This country is accessible only
by boat and is the feeding and
nesting ground of white pelicans,
wood ibises, herons, egrets and
thousands Of shore and water
birds. The cruise is through
isolated bays and tiny canals,
arched over densely by jumbled
mangrove trees.

MIAMI, Fla.

Several times a week a small
group Of reasonably solid Ameri-
can citizens forsakes the comforts
of resort living and goes sloggina
through a watery wilderness
tramping through a trackless
expanse and boating through a
maze of unmapped islands. They
become bird watchers in the
Everglades.
Armed with cameras and field
glasses, mosquito dope and snake
bite kits, they scoot off into the
wilds to ooh and ah at an as
founding variety of birds. These
wilds, by the way, are only q
short drive from the modern and
glittering city of Miami.
This business Of making small
scale adventures out of other
wise comfortable folks can be
credited to the National Audubon
Society and the anonymous
genius who thought up the idea
of meeting wild creatures on their
home grounds.
Queue Up for Trip
The tours are a planned and
well-organized venture and, sur
prisingly, a standing line affair.
So anxious are people to take
the adventure that reservations
must be made well in advance.
You have choice of several
tours.
From Miami you can take a
one-day trip by station wagon
and power cruiser to such remote
spots as Lake Ingraham and
Cape Sable, with a stopoff at
the famous Anhinga Trail. Or,

have never heard in this SYM
phony before. (The fine engi:
neering deserves q word for
its part In making 1t audible.)
My regret - presumably it
will be widely shared-about
the next record to be men,
toned. is that it starts and
stops when it does. This is
the performance Of Act II of
Gluck's "Orfeo." which was
broadcast in November. 1852,
with Nan Merriman in the title
role.
There are many things that
could be said about "Orfeo,"
and wish there were room to
say them here. One thing must
be said. though, and that is
that it is far too seldom heard,
and then far too often inade-
quately. How inadequately. one
can Judge by hearing this ex-
cerpt and its available recorded
competition.
Brief Sompline :
Act II contains a fine sam:
pling Of this delicious music.
orief though Nit is, including.
substantial numbers for chorus
and the familiar ballet piece
with a solo flute. Miss Merri=
mans piece de resistance IS
the lovely aria "Che puro ciel,'e
which she sings we'll, although.
at points in the recording her
voice sounds slightly hard,
Barbara Gibson, the talented:
Despina of the recent Cost
fan lutte" here, does attrac%
lively with an air belonging to-
Eurydice. Anyone going to the
Metropolitan As years ago
could have heard Toscanint
conduct the whole thing, and
it's clearly too bad he didn't
again.
An almost forgotten oper&
Cat least hereabouts) by the
man who wrote the 1ibrettoS
for Verdi's two greatest,
"Otello" and 'Falstaff," Is the
source Of another excerpt. This
is the elaborate and potent
prologue from Boito's "Me-
fistofele," with chorus and
bass. Nicola Moscona is the
fine soloist. Verdi's "Te Deum"
is on the oversize. :.

Some songs seem to remain
In demand for years, being
recorded again and again and
enjoying several surges Of pop
ulaity. Just such q song Is
composer Ernesto Lecuona's
"Malaguena."
The tune was penned orig
tnally as o solo piano piece
many years ago, and was quite
popular as a eemi-classical
work in Lecuona's native Cuba.
In 1912 the tune was brought
to the attention Of the Amer
ican public via a popular adap-
tation of the melody. 1t was
retitled "At the Crossroads"
with lyrics supplied by the
composer himself, and the
song Immediately jumped into
the hit parade class due to
best-selling recordings by the
dance bands of Jimmy Dorsey
and Vaughn Monroe.
Five years later the famed
First Piano Quartet recorded
the original "Malaguena" for
RCA Victor's Red Seal divi-
sion, and the tune once more
became a best-seller, but this
time in the classical catalogue.
During the intervening years
many artists have waxed the
melody, and now in the last
three weeks a German Ian
guage recording by singer Cat
erina Valente on the Decca
label has gained coast-to-coast
attention.
Miss Valente's disc is the
348th recorded version Of the
tune.

perfect affair artistically. for
Beethoven was really no oper-

is understandably dated, and
most Of the spoken dialogue is

The opera Is, though, an
essential document. And Tos-

A Fiddler in AIfolfo
Isaac Stern, who plays the
beautiful Haydn concerto IN
C with the National Symphony
this week, and on the same
program joins Gregor Piati-
gorsky in the Brahms double
concerto, is quite at home in
the concert hall.
Two weeks ago. when the
Alfalfa Club held its annual
dinner in the Statler, he found
himself in the novel role Of
professional entertainer at a
stag party. While a thousand
men drank champagne and
puffed Corona -Coronas, Stern
played for them music by the
composer he said he had
learned is the favorite Of the
President of the United States.
President Eisenhower, who was
there. later thanked Mr..
Stern for his music-the fugue
from the unaccompanied vio-
lin sonata in G minor. by Bach.
The toastmaster Of the AL
falfa Club introduced Stern by
saying he was one Of the great
est violinists in the world, and
he would have to look far TO
find somebody who would take
issue with him.
Several years ago, when
Stern came to town to play
the Brahms concerto with the
National Symphony, Howard
Mitchell suggested that the
two run through the piece at
the conductors home, settling
points of Interpretation, and
thus saving time at the Or
cheStral rehearsal.
Stern. in his shirtsleeves,
was warming up in high fettle,
playing runs and arpeggios,
and cutting loose with various
fiddle gymnastics.
DR.. Mitchell's son Glen, aged
IL, came in the house, listened
to the stranger for q few
minutes in critical approval,
and then whispered to his
father: Pop, he's okay. I'd
sign him up, II I were you"

So many people go into
marriage with no real knowl-
edge of each other-or even
under false pretenses. At the
best, they have not talked
things out together enough to
agree on important matters.
A young man of my own &C.
quaintance married a very
wealthy girl. After the cere-
mony they were getting their
things together to start on the
honeymoon and she made a
reference to her maid.
YOU'RE certainly not taking
your maid on our honeymoon.
he cried.
II certainly am. or there
won't be any honeymoon" she
retorted. An argument fol-
lowed; he went away alone.
They were never again togeth-
err but got no divorce, and
when he was killed in an auto
mobile accident three years
afterward she was his legal
wife, who inherited his entire
estate-which she did not need
against the claims of his
own mother, who was in real
need.
You probably read in the
newspaper recently of another
bride suing for divorce. They
were together for only Is min
utes after the ceremony, she
alleged. After that, her hus-
band abandoned her. During
those 900 seconds "she was a
good and dutiful wife" she
