Elaine Malbin, shapely and
talented young soprano who is
well known to TV audiences,
was heard last night at the
Roosevelt Center Auditorium in
a recital sponsored by the Dis
trict Of Columbia Recreation De-
partment.
1t was an evening Of sharp
contrasts and surprises.
Miss Malbin, who last week
scored a resounding success as
Violetta in MICS English Ian
guage version Of TIA Traviata, -
broke precedent by referring to
the cool reception the transla-
tion had received in the Wash
ington press.
She indicated that she was
just as happy with the original
italian, and asked the audience
to indicate in which language
they preferred her to sing the
"Ah, fors e. lui" aria. The
answer, surprisingly enough, was
"a resounding Italian" and the
singer proceeded to demonstrate
that she has a thorough mastery
Of the Italianate opera style,
whether sung in English or
Italian.
Miss Malbin's program was
one OF the oldest this reviewer
has seen in a long time. Some
one apparently slapped the
thing together with pieces of
string and Scotch tape in an
attempt to include something to
appeal to everyone.
The range was from a horren-
dous song out of ''Kismet," based
on a movement from the Borodin
string quartet. supposedly, to
Debussy's subtle and fragrant
I"Ariettes Oubliees." with chunks
Iof opera. typical conservatory
teaching" songs. and well-worn
lchestnuts in between.
There is no doubt that Miss
Malbin is lavishly endowed with
excellent vocal equipment. Her
opulent voice is admirably free
and powerful. and she can be
quite thrilling to hear. Unfor-
ltunately. however. she showed
very little evidence Of interpre-
tive maturity except in Italiar
opera and tcuriously enoughl
the Debussy songs.

sr Or. PETER j srtINceoHN

It was a great surprise to re-
ceive today from Washington,
d. c., q letter from this young
boy whose letter ] give you. It
arrived neatly typed:
Dear DR.. Steincrohn: What

Hm 6-and-a-half years of age,

ing cough and my father looks
from appearances as II ne has

Of whipping. cross my fingers,

Answer: Dear Ken: Please
show this column to your parents
and perhaps. in the future, you
will not need to be crossing your
fingers so much. / think they
can do more to get you out OF
that harmless habit than you
can: by giving up the threats Of
whipping and the whippings

old-fashioned and widespread
custom. I wouldn't. be surprised
that your own granddaddy used
to do likewise when he was a
boy--and even when fully grown

"rah-rah" are important to ma
ture persons because they de-
sire assurance of continuity.
It is not simple stubbornness
that makes his father press his
point so strongly, but love for
the boy who bears his name and
the desire for strong and mean
ingful ties with him. Peter
should give full and serious con-
sideration to his fathers wishes
in this matter.
On the other hand. Victor
should recognize that the tie Of

as compared with other factors.
1t is far more important for
Peter to 60 to the college he

Peter gives very good reason
for not wanting to go to his
college. He is not be-
ing simply contrary. His desire
for a home life should not be
thwarted. If Peter lives at home.
his father will be even better
able to share those college years
with him and to strengthen the
ties between them. There is so
much to be said for letting Peter
follow his own inclinations in
this matter that Victor should
not let a misplaced sentimental
ity obstruct the important issue

IT did this not long ago

arms as though they were pro-

line. Here are the pointers.
First pull your abdomen in

Reach straight forward with
each step. not to the side.
Place one foot in front Of the
other as though you were
walking a straight line. The

The habit of walking about
the room with a book on your
head is splendid practice for
improving your walk as well
