Aim of the group is to i'm
prove, through area cooperation,
the economic position of the
seven southeastern counties.
One question that is expected
to come before the group will be
a contest to find a livelier name
for the organization, and also
to generate general public in
terest in it and in its work.
Were seriously thinking of
carrying on a contest, using all
media. and offering IA good prize
for the best name. The one used
now is rather long and possibly
little drab." Carter said.
To attend the meeting will be

is due lot of credit for the

brief new members on detectives
of the board. Also reports from
the Industry division, by Carter

The singing of the Londoners
is curiously uneven. The French

and crisp and exquisitely senti-
mental--but in the English
groups the five musicians
seemed to be unmatched soloists
somewhat lacking in unity Of
conception and total balance.
Dramatically these madrigalS
were jumpy and metrically un-
even. The voices did not blend

was quite capable.
AS for the music, how can
one praise these miracles of
melody and expression? They
are the most happy marriage of
words and music that the art of

these 10Th Century madrigals

star last night. Top billing was
shared with the new Aeolian-
Skinner organ, recently installed
at the Temple. At this recital 1t
received its official unwilling.
The program was divided into
three sections. one devoted to
Baroque composers. one to con-
Temporary Jewish composers,
and one to miscellany entitled
THE Colors of the Organ"
This last gave the audience an
opportunity to hear the instru-
Iment without being bothered by
musical content.
The organ was shown to be
well balanced, with mixtures
which color but never dominate,
and a rather mellow trumpet
which serves well as solo stop,
but which isn't too strident to be
used effectively with other stops
The instrument is versatile
enough to be at home with a
wide range of musical styles and
uses.
The most impressive music Of
the evening came first, with the
works by Handel, Buxtehude
and Bach. Siegfried Karg-
Elert's less than tasteful ar
rangements of two Rameau
clavecin pieces served as a con-
Itrasting interlude. Mr.. Bakers

the Chaconne and the Bach
Fugue captured the grand sweep
of this music in exemplary
fashion.
The Prelude from Milhaud's
Sacred Service is a simple but
most effective work in three
part form, using vigorous sound
ing, massive chords over a
descending pedal figure in con-
trast to a short section for soft
strings and flutes. 1t proved
to be the best music in the second
group.

Cowell revealed an extraor-
dinarily eclectic palette here,
borrowing from sources as
diverse as Stravinsky, Celtic folk
song, and the Balinese gamelan,
but he nevertheless succeeded in
welding all disparate elements
into a recognizably individual
istic idiom.
He achieved some astonishing
orchestral effects with virtuoSo

some eerie-sounding glisSandi on

All in all, the piece held the
