Get BIG Welcome

MOSCOW, June % (AP).-
The Bolshoi ballet troupe re-
turned to a triumphal welcome
last night after a tour of the
United States and Canada. Fell
low artists turned out at Mos
cows Vnukovo Airport and
showered them with bouquets.
Bolshoi Director G. A. Vor-
vid told welcomers:
I'VE are happy we fulfilled
a task for our country by carry
ing the banners of Socialist
(Communist) art far abroad.
Letters from Canadians and
Americans told us we had won
their souls. These expressions
referred not only to our art
but to our homeland, proving

The ballet troup is to take
several weeks holiday and then
begin rehearsing for a tour Of

There are comparatively few
contralto singers: fewer good
ones. Ruth Brazil, who gave q
recital at the Phillips Gallery
last night, is one Of them. Her
voice is rich and smooth, her
delivery straightforward and
affecting, and her style in the
several different types of song
she put on her program was al
ways unusually musicianly.
The highlight Of the program
was the cycle of three songs
Schubert drew from SCOTS

too well known. perhaps, for the
song has been abused by many

for almost as long assthe trem-

Brazil or Dorothy Maynor sing
it, the simple and devoted ap-
peal to the Virgin Mary is one
of the finest melodies of Schu-
bert. The two other songs Of
the cycle are almost entirely
unknown to the recital audi
ence. but each of them is COM
parable to the best of the stro-
phic songs of its composer.
The recital opened with three
fine sacred songs by C..P. E.

Court Hearing

For Gov. Long

BATON ROUGE, Ia, June
% (AP).-Claiming fraud and
his own sanity, Gov. Earl X.
Long Of Louisiana went TO
court last night in an effort
TO free himself from a mental
Ihospital---his second such at
tempt in rs days.
Through counsel, the So
year-old Governor asked the
States 22d Judicial Court to
approve his petition for q writ
of habeas corpus. Judge Rob-
Iert Jones responded by setting
o hearing for Friday at 10 am.
l(CST).
Attorney Joe Arthur Sims
based his petition for the writ

uniting Long to the Southeast

was obtained through fraud.

opinion saying 1t. Gov. Lether
Frazar had to assume the post
Of acting Governor.
But the 54-year-old Frazar
ignored the opinion, contended
he was only the Lieutenant
Governor. That left the State
leaderless.
Secretary ReIents
Mr.. Frazar's reluctance was
due in part to a challenge from
Secretary Of State Wade o.
Martin, jr., who said he would
recognize no one but Mr.. Long
as Governor. However, Mr..
Martin relented later in the
day and said he would accept
Mr.. Frazar as acting Cover
nor.
Gov. Long won a petition
for a writ Of habeas corpus
hearing in Galveston, Tex,
June is, claiming he was re-
moved from his mansion at
Baton Rouge to a psychiatric
clinic at John Sealy Hospital
at Galveston by force.
Before Texas District Judge
L. D. GODDARD had an oppor-
tunity to rule, Gov. Long agreed
to voluntary treatment at a
New Orleans hospital and re-
turned home from Galveston
last Wednesday.
But Gov. Long skipped out

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. June
% (AP) "A Negro leader be-
lieves that decisions in the
Tallahassee and Mariana rape
cases viii have a wide effect on
racial justice in Southern
courtrooms.
The Rev. David H. Brooks
commented on life sentences
handed out here to four white
youths for raping a Negro coed
and to a l6-year-old Negro at
Mariana for raping a white
woman.
The sentences were imposed
two hours apart yesterday in
cases which have attracted
wide attention. Mariana is
so miles west of Tallahassee.
Mr.. Brooks, who is an Epis-
copal church pastor and presi-
dent of the Tallahassee chap
ter of the National Association
for the Advancement of Colored
People, said that on the basis Of
these actions, Florida has taken
the lead in the South ain efforts
to erase the double standard Of
justice"
Regional Precedent
In New York City, Roy VIII
kins, executive secretary Of the
NAACP, said in a statement
that the life sentences imposed
here "set a regional precedent
which we hope other Southern
juristS will emulate"
Mr.. wilkins said the Judge
"vindicated those Southern
whites who believe that justice
must be color blind, and he re-
newed the hope of Negroes that
justice is an attainable goal. !"
Mr.. wilkins, who took note
that the life sentences we're the
maximum possible in view Of
the jury's recommendation for
mercy, also said:
There remains the dis
crepancy between the death
sentence invariably imposed
upon Negroes convicted of rape
of a white woman and the SEN
fences melted out in Tallahas-
see -"
An Associated Press poll
showed that no white man. has
paid the death penalty in any
State for rape Of a Negro. Be-
cause Florida and some other
States have sent Negroes to the
electric chair for raping white
women. some Negro leaders
have claimed a double stand
ard of justice operated in the
South.

1t was present to the bowl
the opening of Jerry Lewis
week. This gives the comic. a
refugee from Hollywood, the
distinction of having picked up
where Harry Bellafonte left of.
AS distinctions go, this one
could imperil Lewis humility,
which of course is a matter
between the performer and his
conscience or his psychiatriSt.
Lewis in the flesh is new
to this correspondent and a
pleasant surprise as compared
with the overwrought Speci-
men on the screen, including
the small television one. His
newneSS is due to the fact
that on his previous appear
ances here, we have always
been in Europe, California,
everywhere but outer space.

This, in all honesty, is not
as good an idea as it always
seemed at the time. The in
person Lewis, on a non-com-
petitive stage, is a comedian
who has intelligently provided
himself with a sound basic act
and is more aware than anyone
else that being funny today is
a triumph of style over mate
rial.
He behaves as a performer
who knows that all the jokes
are dead and that the unwary
comic can join them at a mo-
ment's notice. This is smart
