Pianist Andrews Shows
Power and BriIIionce
By IRVING LOWENs

! Mitchell Andrews. piano. At Phillips
Gallery, Program: Fantastic No. . in
minor, Telemann; Minuet In D. X ass.
| Mozart; Sonata in E nat. Opus Sla.
Beethoven; Piano Variations, COPELAND:
polonaise In 4 nat. Opus 81. Chopin:
Joyeuse. Debussy.
Mitchell Andrews. a brilliant
and powerful pianist, was heard
last night at the Phillips Gallery
ins an impressive recital, fea-
tured by an overwhelming read
ing of Aaron Copland's violent
Piano Variations" now rarely
encountered in concert halls.
Mr.. Andrews is gifted with an
admirable command over the re-
sources Of the piano. keen mu-
steal intelligence and extra
ordinarily strong fingers.
From the opening moments of
the recital, in which two fresh
and quite lovely Telemann Fan
taisies" were set forth with a
chiseled grace and clarity of line
as rare as it is satisfying feat
repeated with the delightfully."-
Gallo Movements Perpetuels"
OF Poulenc - it was clear that
here was an artist who knew
what he was doing and who had
the technical equipment to
project his ideas.
The unusual nature of Mr..
Andrews musicianship was
Strikingly revealed in the tiny
Mozart minuet which preceded
the first big effort Of the eve
ming His was a romantic Mozart.
but a most convincing one,
played at a deliberate tempo
which gave everyone a chance to
SAVIOR to the utmost the great
composers startlingly modern
use Of diSsonance. And as the
Mozart was romantic, SO was the
CT opin "Fantasy-Polonaise"
classic and restrained in con-
ception.
With the Beethoven Les
Adieux" sonata and the COPELAND
variations. the recital reached its
climax. Except in its closing
pages. where Mr.. Andrews al
lowed himself to pound the piano
for the only time during the
evening. the Beethoven was a
model Of lucidity, precision and
impetuous ardor. Its long lines
were lovingly shaped with dignity
and expansive tenderness in a
beautifully controlled perform
ance.
The transcendentally ugly but
strangely moving piano varia-
tons by COPELAND. with its smash
mig dissonances and wildly wild
fioritura. was veritable tour de
force. Mr.. Andrews agile fingers
made child's play of its tremen-
dous technical difficulties, and
forced its angularities into the
Grabbed yet eloquent patterns
envisioned by the young COPELAND.
His later works are tame by
comparison-the variations will
always remain a Shocker.
The evening closed with an
other demonstration of Mr..
Andrews virtuosity. as Debussy's
shimmering "L'Isle JoyeuSe"
came from his fingers.

Dim VieiU Taken BY Teeners
Of Nighttime DriUing Ban

More than one violation or acts OF delinq-
uency should automatically revoke drivers
license" said Reid. This recommendation was
also made by John McGraw, president of Cath
ersburgs senior class.
The majority of those contacted agreed with
Cynthia Heisler, Gaithersburg High year book
editorin.chief who said that such restrictions
would be furnishing the majority of teenagers
for the faults of few"
Talked to Group
In his luncheon address at the 7th annual
Traffic Safety Conference last Wednesday, Judge
Noyes said that almost invariably we find that
when delinquent acts are committed by boys at
the age of IS and II at night, an automobile is
found to be the mode of transportation"
The teens reply to this, in the words of
Jerry Hyatt, president of Damascus High Stu
dent Council is that the 16 II year old looking
for trouble will find 10 year old friend to
drive or go on foot"
Wheaton's Student Council president, Jim
Harris, repeated this argument and added that
IF parent is necessary to supervise night driv.
ing, the age limit might well be put up to - 4"
The reason behind this strong opposition to
adult supervision is evidently directed against
chaperones on dates
AS Richard Montgomery Senior, Jim Lee,
editor of his school paper says, WHO wants an
adult along on a date2'
This was echoed by his friend young Reid,
who said that the restriction would definitely
limit dating" Continued on Page 81

Long Memory Spares
Deer During Hunt

A memory saved a life last
week.
Garrett and Samuel Umberg-
err, brothers, of Germantown,
were out hunting deer with
bow and arrow in Frederick
County Both are powerful
men, over six feet tall and
about 275 pounds each.
II was their second day with
out a sign of deer. Then Sam
uel flushed a perfect doe
which walked slowly in front of
Garnett.
He raised his bow, fitted an
arrow and drew. II must have
happened then.
More than 10 years ago, with
the Army in Germany, Garrett
shot and wounded a deer. 1t
disappeared before he could kill
il. Someone else finished 1t off.
But before the end, Il cried
like a baby.
Umberger remembered and
lowered his bow. The doe
walked on.

School Aides Hoping
For Little Snow

School officials are hoping it
doesn't snow much this winter
Under State law, in order to
qualify for aid, they must hold
school at least $50 days a year
And the school year has been
scheduled for exactly 100 days.
So, for every day school is
closed this winter because of
snow, they'll have to tack an UNI
scheduled day on the end of the
school year next June. And you
know how popular this is with
the kids and the parents.
Incidentally, kids, here's the
day you're probably waiting
for, the scheduled end of
school: it's June II, 1858, of
course.

Underlings
Know THEY'LL
Go to Jail

Montgomery County, a look
at the record reveals, is an un-
healthy place for gamblers.
Only nine numbers defendant;
or bookle suspects were arrested
during the first nine months of
this year, Last year for the en-
tire year there were only three
such arrests.
BY comparison to Montgomery
County's nine gambling arrests
Prince Georges County during the
first nine months of this year

sons for gambling activities.
Does this mean gambling ac-
tivity is going on in Montgomery
county and police are not catch
ing up with it? Emphatically not.
Historically, the gamblers have
skirted Montgomery County for
two reasons: CD the police are
honest and rigidIy enforce the
anti-gambling laws, and (2) the
Judges are tough on gamblers.
The underlings of the gambling
world and their bosses know that
gamblers arrested in Montgomery
County will ID almost certainly

tainly serve time instead of get
ting off by paying fines.
The maximum gambling penal
ty is one year in Jail and a fine
of $1,000. The maximum is usual
ly handed out,
The get tough" policy for gam
blers was developed by former
Chief Judge of Circuit Court,
Charles w. Woodward and the
then Associate Judge Stedman
Prescott, who now is Judge on
the Maryland Court of Appeals.
In addition to giving maximum
sentences, Judges Woodward and
Prescott became well known for
their tongue Iashings.
The policy of showing little
mercy to gamblers has been mill
family carried on by the present
Judges Thomas M. Anderson,
Kathryn J. Lawlor, and John r.
Reeves.
Both present and past judges
believe that gambling, if it gets
very far, can corrupt an entire
community. Accordingly, they try
