Dentist Cleared
In Assault Trial

A Washington dentist yes
terday was acquitted of a
charge Of assaulting the oper-
ator of a Pennsylvania avenue
tailoring and cleaning shop.
Municipal Court Judge Aus
tin Tickling said he found the

FAMOUS FABLES
BY E. E. EDGAR

EXPENSIVE: Like many
another ballplayer former
Star Outflelder Joe Medwick
of the st. Louis Cardinals
believed in good-luck signs.
One afternoon when Med
wick was in a batting slump
he popped a foul into the
air above home plate. The
catcher dropped his mask
and got into position for the
easy out. Medwick. angry
with himself, whacked the
mask with his bat, making
a stable dent. Then, as the
ball landed in the catcher's
mitt, he strobe back to the
dugout.
The next time he came to
bat Medwick connected with
the first pitch for a clean
hit. Convinced that he had
changed his luck by denting
the mask, he was all for con-
tinuing the routine.
The next afternoon when
he came up for his first turn
at bat he waited hopefully
for the catcher to drop his
mask. Finally the latter did
so. and Medwick lifted his
bat with eager anticipation,

The Claremont Quartet, one
Of the best of the younger cham
Der music groups, was heard last
night at the Library Of Con-
gress in a fine concert, climaxed
by the world premiere of a new
piano quintet by Mel Powell
with the composer assisting at
the keyboard.
The star of the youthful Mr..
Powell-he is just 35-has been
rising rapidly. After achieving
a position of eminence as a jazz
pianist, he invaded the strong
holds Of serious music with con-
siderable success. In the last
few years each of his works has
been greeted with respectful at
tention and, at times, with gen.
uine enthusiasm.
I found the three-move-
lment quintet a difficult nut to
crack, The opening movement,
which Mr.. Powell calls fan
tasia, has little sustained line,
consisting primarily Of a series
of brief interludes of varying
tempt in a sharply dissonant
idiom. Throughout this move
ment, the piano interjects vio-
lent, punctuating chords which
are echoed by pizzicato strings.
Middle Movement Stands Out
To my mind the middle
movement was the most salts
flying of the three. Broad,
arching lyricism appears in the
first cantilena-a welcome relief
from the nervous compulsion Of
the preceding fantasia - and
the persuasive piano falls silent.
The keyboard instrument dom.
mates the middle section in
scherzo mood, while the second
cantilena combines the melodic
and kinetic elements of the
first two sections.
The closing allegro begins
promisingly with an urgently
sung melody in the viola, taken
up in turn by piano, cello and
violin, but dissolves incon-
clusively in what semms to be
fussy complexities. (
This is not the kind Of music
which audienceS-or critics
can take to their hearts after
a single hearing, and it is quite
possible that greater familiarity
with its unfamiliar patterns will
reveal unsupported beauties.
But I have a bunch that as he
writes more, Mr.. Powell will
tend to simplify his idiom to the
,, point where it is less medicinal
: in flavor.
!, Start With Arriaga
> Instead of beginning the
evening with the customary
! Haydn or Mozart, the Messrs.
Gottlieb, Weisman, Schoen and
Klein turned to the music of
: the little-known Spanish COM
!. poser, Juan Crisostomo de
Arriaga. The quartet per-
formed comes from Arriaga's
10th year, and it was quite
plain that the world of music
suffered a great loss when this
Enthusiastically gifted younger
contemporary of Beethoven
died at the age of 20. In this
a very pleasant work, Arriaga
: demonstrated that the name by
o which he is sometimes known,
that of the Spanish Mozart"
is not undeserved.
o The Claremont plays with
great strength and superb
;. musicianship. What it lacks
! in subtlety, it makes up in pas
: sion. These qualities were ex-
hibited in the familiar Opus SO,
No. 3, of Beethoven, which
brought the concert to an ex-
citing close, as we'll as in the
rest of the evenings music.

DIR. Lazzeri Cites
New Demands For
Hospital Growth

Edward S. Wilson, Jr., past
president of the Smyrna Rotary
Club, presented DR.. John ]. Laz-
zeri who spoke on the Kent
General Hospital building fund.
He told of the necessity for
more space to accommodate the
growing needs of the commun-
ity. A financial campaign is now
being conducted to raise the ne
cessary funds for the enlarge
ment of the hospital, he said.
According to the speaker, the
hospital is now fully organized
to care for the many types of
medical and surgical cases in
the fast growing area. The goal
is for 100000 or more to ac-
complish the success which the
hospital directors think neces-
sary. David Rash is general
chairman of the financial COM
mittee, and he stated that the
overall cost will be $600,000.
The response was given by DR..
|C. ]. Prickett, who urged the
Rotarians to wholly support the
drive for funds. Clarence Collins
was program chairman. Rex Gil
more presided and birthday
greetings were extended to DR..
Fred Englert. Visitors included
Russell Wilson, Dover; Alexan-
der P. Marshall, Selinsgrove,
