12-year-old daughter. 1t was
not made clear how she had
angered the young man.
After police released the
youth on Saturday to his moth
er and advised them both to
appear in Juvenile Court today,
the little drama appeared end
ed. The boy decided to pull off
half a Romeo-and-Juliet, how
ever, according to police.
He grabbed a bottle of poison
and ran from his home, they
said. When police caught up
with him moments later, on the
grounds of the Old Soldiers
Home. the youth said he had
already quaffed a few driblets
from the bottle. He was rushed
to the Washington Hospital
Center, where his stomach was
pumped out.
Police said the boy is now in
the Receiving Home for Chill
dren, awaiting action by the
Juvenile Court.

A large-framed. white-haired
octogenarian bent over the lee
tern and repeated these lines
several times for his listeners.
Robert Frost, Consultant in
Poetry to the Library of Con-
greSs. was reading from his
works to an overflow audience
at the Library's Coolidge Audi
forum last night.
He has discovered, he said,
in life "the twoness within its
SOUL" This is why he has late
ly taken to writing couplets-"a
symbol of the metaphor, which
tries to put two things to-
gether."
Then. with knitting Of his
Gaelic brow, he read several of
his couplets. A prayer:
Forgive, o Lord, my Jokes on
Thee
And I'll forgive Thy great big
one on me.
An observation:
We dance around In q ring
and suppose
But the secret sits in the
middle and knobs.
Yet between his wry couplets
and humorous stanzas ran a
somber message to man having
to take Sides"
Before a backdrop of the
Berlin crisis. Quemoy and Mat
SUI and the cold war, the four
time Pulitzer Prize winner
warned against being too hasty
in taking sides.
Lets be careful that the is
sues are real Ones" he said.

are really worth dying for. "

He said he had no love for

EARTH" he said. sis to kill of
all who disagree.
The great achievement of the
Anglo-Saxon countries, he said,
is that we have "agreed to dis
agree and not to kill each other
out of Office"
But, he complained that often
people demanded that he take
sides needlessly. For example,
poetry VS.. science. He said he
could find no great conflict be-
tween the two.
Science" he said, ''is the
great enterprise of the human
race. Poetry looks on with en-
thuSiasm at the wonder.
1.-THE poetry is us and the
science is our enterprise"
Mr. Frost, who celebrated his
85th birthday last Thursday,
then read this couplet:

Chester Page. a young New
York pianist, bit of a little bit
more than he could comfortably
chew last night at the Phillips
Gallery.
Mr.. Pages formidable list in
cluded major works by the mod
ern American Norman Dello
Joio and the customary Bee
thoven sonata-this time, for
tunately. not the favorite Opus
100. which virtually every visi-
tor Git seems) has featured. but
the wonderful A fiat, Opus no
as we'll as smaller pieces by
Brahms, Ravel and Debussy.
The Dello Joio Sd Sonata,
something of a novelty, opened
the concert. 1t proved to be a
well-made piece, blandly dis
sonant and surprisingly remi-
niscent of Hindemith in his
milder, less inspired moments.
The recital suffered conSid-
erably from Mr.. Pages tech
nical deficiencies and his OBJ
viouS nervousness. The pianist's
fingers were hardly sure enough
to support the sort of program
he chose to offer, and as a con-
sequence, in the passages re-
quiring velocity, matters occa-
sionally got pretty rugged.
Perhaps even more unhappy
was Mr.. Pages consistently
faulty pedaling, which blurred
the outlines of virtually every
thing he played and made con-
centration more of a chore than
a pleasure. And matters were
not at all helped by a sentiment
talizing approach to the diff
cult Beethoven work.
AS a whole, the pianist sue
ceeded merely in giving the
audience a general approxima-
ton of the excellent music pro-
grammed. AS amateur playing,
it was good enough, but the
evening was not up to the pro-
fessional level usually demon
lstrated at the Phillips Gallery.

cara Doloukhanova. a Rus
sian mezzo soprano whose
American debut this month in
New York was well received by
the critics, came to Lisner Au-
ditorium last night. 1t may be
that the ideals Of vocal produc-
ton in Russia differ from those
in this country, although clas-
sic music is an international
art and I doubt that a Schubert
song or a Tchaikovsky aria
sounds much different when
sung according to the prevail
ing taste here or there.
At any rate, to my ear Miss
Doloukhanova leaves much to
be desired, both in her musical
interpretations and in how she
uses her voice. 1t is a light,
slightly pinched voice, now and
then a trifle rough in the low
est register. Smooth vocal le-
cato was lacking both in native
Russian works and in the
standard German repertoire
and for a stage singer. Miss
Doloukhanova certainly makes
no dramatic effort in her pres
entation.
The Tchiakovsky and Rach-
maninoff songs were choppy
and short-winded. The folk
songs were nothing out Of the
ordinary, and Schubert''

The Boys Club of Greater
Washington, comprised only of
white boys, was in effect asked
to integrate it's Eastern Branch
yesterday by the board of d.
rectors of the Health and We'll
fare Council of the National
Capital Area.
The board cut to one year
the two-year continued United
GiverS Fund support recon-
mended by its membership
committee for the Boys Club.
If the boards recommendation
is accepted by the HWC Trus-
tees Assembly at its April ID
meeting, the Boys Club will
again have to seek approval
for UGF support next year.
The boards decision was
based on its concern that the
Eastern Branch, located at 261
Seventeenth street Sc, should
be more responsive to the
needs of the immediate COM
munity in which it is situated"
Negro Increase
There has been ga great in
crease" in Negro population in
this area in the past few years,
the membership committee re-
ported to the board. adding
that there had been some loss
of membership in the branch.
The Boys Club of Greater
Washington receives about A
per cent of its 100000 yearly
budget from the Health and
Welfare Council. The latter,
which is the area-wide health
and welfare planning agency
gives UGF money to local
agencies.
Robert B. Riley. jr., vice
president of the Boys Club,
said yesterday that the ques-
ton of changing its policy in
the Eastern Branch lis under
study right now" Mr.. Riley
said the committee probably
will not report for several
months however.
He added. II can't speak for
the findings of the committee,
but I think we are going to
have to serve the residents of
this area.
Tentative Acceptance
In other action yesterday. the
board recommended conditional
acceptance Of the Homemaker
Service of the National Capital
Area for UGF support in 1860,
provided it can show broad
community support" The sgen-
cy hopes to demonstrate such
support through a drive for
$4,000 to be launched tomor-
row.
The agency provides trained
women to take over in homes
temporarily when emergencies
strike.
The board rejected the re-
quest for financial support of
the Foundation for Commu-
nifty Aid to Mental Patients.
It acted on the recommen-
dalton of the membership COM
mittee, which said its position
was mot to be construed as

ment year that ends next June 30.
 In 1861, he said, the govern ment should not only balance the budget but achieve a small sur plus to start repayment on the federal debt.
 U. s. Would Not Interfere
 On another issue, the President said the United States will never have positive political doctrine on whether its foreign aid funds should be used for birth control projects by the recipient nations.
 This government has no inten- ton of interfering in the internal affairs of other governments, he said, adding:
 ''If those governments want to do something about this admit tedly difficult and even explosive problem, that is their responsi- bility."
 The question was raised by reporter who recalled that study groups report on foreign aid ear Her this year suggested that this government, on request, might help in the formulation of plans to deal with population growth in countries whose resources could not keep up with the birth rate.
 The President said he could not imagine a subject which would be a less proper political or gov ernmental function or responsi- bility.
 The subject has the greatest re ligious significance to some de- nominations, Eisenhower said, and while he has no quarrel with the position of the Catholic Church on birth control, he believes it has nothing to do with this govern ment's contacts with other gov ernmentS.

MT. K. Chides 'Droolingg' Enemies of Communism

BUDAPEST, Hungary, R- So- viet Premier Khrushchev indi- cated today that he sent troops and tanks to put down the 1856 revolution in Hungary over the opposition of some of his Krem- lin comrades.
 "At the time of the counter revolution in 1956," he told a meeting of workers, i've thought in the Soviet Union on how we could help Hungary's working people against the. counterrevo- lutionary forces.
 Some Soviet comrades showed anxiety that any aid would be misconstrued. But we said that in time they would see we were right and we had to help the working class"
 Khrushchev declared that in 1856 "the saliva of the imperial ists was running in their mouths at the prospects of Hungary leav- ing the Socialist camp"
 "They thought that one by one they could sever the Socialist countries from their united base, 5 he added.
 The Soviet leader took time out from Hungary's Seventh Com munist Party Congress to address workers at Budapest's Ganz-Ma- way Engineering and Railroad Factory
 Khrushchev said the external forces of imperialism no longer constitute any danger to the Com munist bloc @
 "Our strength is greater than theirs. Our armamentS are better. Our rockets are on the moon. Theirs have fallen into the seq" " the Soviet leader said.
 KhruShchev said a relaxation in international tension was not due to ''imperialist efforts, but to ours. We will see that the warming up process continues"

SIT'KA, tR - A seepage of heavy, pungent gas at the new Alaska Lumber and Pulp Mill at Sitka sent six men to the hospital for checkups yesterday
 The gas, sulpher dioxide, spread into the mill yard and seeped into a building adjacent to production facilities where the chemical is used in turning out pulp.
 Mill Manager Tom Stein called the incident minor, and blamed the seepage on failure of a valve to close properly. Production at the big 60 million dollar mill be- gan just two weeks ago.
 Three of the six men affected by the fumes were admitted to te Sitka Community Hospital for observation.
