The former, Diane Jergens,

REVIVED STANDARD

When note was taken of
the new Angel reissue series
called Great Recordings of
the Century" one item in the
first release had not arrived.
This was a Fritz Kreisler re-
cording of the Beethoven
concerto.
1t is now at hand, and as
one could have predicted it
makes a notable listening ex-
perience. AS all but the
youngest concertgoers and
record collectors know, the
Beethoven concerto and the
name Kreisler long were in
separable, and with good
reasons. For at least one or
two generations the Kreisler
renditions set the standard.
This performance. recorded
with the London Philhar-
monte under John Barbirolli
in 1886. may well suggest
that this condition still OBJ
tains. In any case. it is an
example of uncommon elo-
quence in the art of violin
playing, which the engineers
Of England's Gramophone
Co. have managed to trans
fer to modern long-playing
form with a remarkably close
approximation of modern
sound.

gular sort. Some of them
have been musical. But the
special Cook interest has ap-
parently been in sound as
such, whether musical or
not.
Three sample Cook discs
recently arrived. One of them.
Rail Dynamics," has been
famous since 1852. The con-
tent is a succession of sounds
of the New York Central
Railroad. The second disc
has to do with thunder
storms, and the third, called
voices of the Sky" re-
cords F-86 jets, does and
turbo-prop airliners.
A good part of Voice of
the Storm" is taken up with
wind, rain and a not en-
tirely explained interlude
with fire engines, but the
thunderclaps are resound-
ingly real. The airplane noise,
to be frank about it, to me
is rather dull. But Rail
Dynamics" is a masterpiece.
1t is required repertoire for
any railroad fan.

PurceII's Music

Alfred Deller, the English
counter-tenor, has been repd-
ering valuable service in
bringing TO records much Of
the choicest old-English vocal
music.
One of his latest ventures
is an album devoted to Pur-
cell. 1t is a welcome one.
Purcell Is still underappreci-
ated. and the list of catalog
entries is not growing very
rapidly. despite the approach
of next years Purcell tercen-

which should give Purcell
admirers great pleasure.
Those intrigued by the
Deller alto voice should also
Investigate other Bach
Guild-Vanguard releases. A
pair of discs is devoted to
English madrigaliSts, and one
is devoted to songs of Dow
land and others. Another
pair (labeled 1.-THE Wraggle

Three Ravens" respectively
offers some delightful folk
songs. A disc labeled 1.-THE
Cries Of London" offers mu-

uresque language used by
18th and 18th century

One of the best of the
Deller discs is a Bach Guild
issue of Purcell's lode for
st. Cecilia'S Day." Deller also
can be heard in an Angel
collection of songs mentioned
or used by Shakespeare.
Angel has just performed
a good deed for Purcell low
erS by providing a recording
of music of his own COM
posing which was heard at
the great EngliShman's flu
neral.
The music consists of a
march, a canzona and two
anthems. They make an elo-
quent musical epitaph. A
first-rate performance of
Bach'S Magnificent occupies
the m ajor portion of the

Very much worth noting,
also, is an Angel disc by the

1t had ever been heard here
before.

after its premiere at La Scala,
and the piece was not yet

SIC" Could very well have
actually been enjoyed by us
Washingtonians. The Met
brings the latest musical
comedy to town.
Hoping to reconstruct the
gala occasion, I searched the
old files of The Star diligently
but not too professionally,
for I am a scholar of very
short-lived singleness of pur-
pose. In the issues of Satur-
day, March 7, and Monday,
March 8 1--WE had no Sunday
issue in those days., there
was scarcely a column that
didn't beguile my interest and
attention, whether the sub
ject was "Falstaff" or not.
Played at Allen HOues
Verdi's "Falstaff" was very
much there, also, in those
old issues of The Star. Its
performance wound up the
seasons visit Of the Metro
politan Opera at the Allen
Opera House, the exact loca-
ton of which I couldn't
ascertain, although the ads
requested gallery patrons to
enter by the Pennsylvania
avenue door. Prior to this
finale, on Thursday, Gar

Emma Calve on the stage
and President and Mrs.
Cleveland in the audience.
Fridays show was Romeo

flying cast of both the

Saturday aft emo O.
brough Aida" with Nordica
and Plancon, and in the eve
ming came the local premiere
of "Falstaff" by our most
eminent living composer
Singing in it were Saville,
Lola Beeth, Kitza, Scalchi,
Cremonini, Campanari, Ari-
mondi, Vanni, Rinaldini and
as Falstaf, Victor Maurel,
for whom Verdi had written
the role. Tickets were not
cheap; in fact at SIS to So, in
comparison to whisky and
real estate, they were in
comparably more expensive
than those of the Metro
politan today.
The anonymous Star critic
was greatly pleased both with
the new opera and with
Maurel, although he noticed,
in some CONSERVATION, that
neither "Falstaff" nor Aida"
drew the crowds that came
to Romeo" and Carmen"

had sung Iago in Verdi's
"Othello" in Washington the
year before. Quite a town for
music in those days, don't you
think?
Met Not Named
1t is curious to note that al
though the opera troupe is
clearly called the Metropoli-
tan Opera in the ads it is
never spoken of by name in
the reviewers or news stories.
Then as now the Met was q
world-famous organization;
so to hide its identity can
only have been the result of a
civic pride which was unwill-
ing to allow New York its
fair share of Washington's
opera triumph.
Let us now look at what
other theatrical entertain
ment Washington enjoyed at
the time of "Falstaff." Magic
was discredited. for The Star
had printed a daring expose
under the caption Occult
Hocuspocus! Mysteries of the
Basket Trick of India Laid
Bare. Magic Without Ma
hatmas." However Sarah
Bernhardt was in town in a
week of repertory at the New
National. She had followed
De Wolfe Hopper and his
Merry Company in a produc-
ton by the name of Wang"
my own earliest memories of
the Washington theater,
which date, I imagine, from
about 1920, include those of
Hopper. a man whose mouth
would make Joe E. Browns
seem like that of a perch by
comparison. No matter what
part he played, in no matter
what show, he would always
give a dramatic reading of

Then there was Andrew
Mack, at the Academy Thea

drama, 'MyleS Aroon.' It

time, and in the ad extolling

Aid for Roads

The District could receive Sc
million to 81 million in addi-
tional Federal highway funds
if Congress decides to write
some already completed prof.
ectS into the new highway pro-
gram, officials said today.
But the possible financial
boost depends partly on a rec
ommendation still to be made
by Federal administrators.
Highway Director John N.
Robertson listed four projects
on which he said the city
might receive extra Federal
funds if the reimbursement
proposal goes through.
These were the Whitehurst
freeway, the northbound High
way Bridge at Fourteenth
street, the Kenilworth express.
way and the recent extension
of New York avenue. There
may also be some others, hi
said.
Congress in a resolution has
asked the Commerce Depart.
ment to recommend whether
to carry out the reimbursement
move, which has been esti.
mated to carry a cost of some
SIS billion.
Some sources in the highway
industry have expressed doubt
that the department will come
up with a p favorable recon-
mendation.

City's All Shook Up About a Sign

A big sign with a cheerful
but ungrammatical message
was transported to Municipal
Court today by a Georgetown
businessman after the city
ordered him to remove it.
The 60-square foot billboard
spent the morning just outside
the corporation counsel's Office,
where its owner, Lad Mills, had
been ordered to appear on a
charge of violating the Dis
trict's sign regulations.
Its size and message. "We're
All Shook Up But You're We'll
come as Always" was judged
improper for the service sta
ton at Wisconsin avenue and
@ street NV. by the Fine Arts
Commission. Instead, the COM
mission advised Mr.. Mills last
August 10 to put up a sign less
than half its size and at the
same time suggested a more
sober message: Business as
Usual During Alterations"
TIL same day, Mr.. Mills was
instructed by the District to
remove the sign within "a hours.
But, he related. he decided to
leave it standing.
However, Assistant Corpora
ton Counsel Clark King took a
look and concluded it violated
the Districts sign law, and
scheduled another hearing FRI
day. Mr.. Mills attorney, Ar
thur Carroll, said he will file a
suit in District Court this week
to compel the District to give
his client q sign permit.

He urged the teachers to be
ready with a program of in
struction which will be factual,
will teach the reproductive
processes" and will develop a
moral background.
It was his hope, he said, that
if some purpose to the business
of living" could be instilled in
youngsters, sexual problems
would be reduced.
He said he hoped the new
type of instruction will also
develop a feeling that there
is nothing so important as
being a member of a family. =
He said instruction should seek
to restore the family to its
proper position in hfe."
