The Pagani niString Quartet. At
Library Of CongresS. Program: Quar-;
tet in G; Opus TO- No. 2, HAYDN;
tet, Claude Debussy.
The Paganini String Quartet,
heard here the last several sea-
sons at the Corcoran Gallery,
moved to the Library of Con-
gress last night for a recital of
three very interesting works.
The Emperor Quartet of Haydn
is one of the composers most
popular pieces. 1t is no finer in
condition and execution than
so or go others by Haydn, but
it enjoys the distinct advantage
of a movement that varies one
of the greatest and most nearly
universally known hymns-the
tune we know as Glorious
Things of Thee Are Spoken. ="
Haydn's four or five variations
are simple and direct and of an
overwhelming cumulative pow
er.
The recital concluded with
the Debussy Quartet, an early
work of such perfection that
Debussy either never felt the
incentive or never dared to
write another.
There remains the evenings
novelty-the second quartet of
Burrill Phillips, which had its
world premiere last night, hav-
ing been commissioned by the

Hoffo, LocuI Sue
Bank President
For $40 Million

MIAMI, Fla, Jan. 80 (AP).-
James Hoffa, president of the
TeamsterS Union, and his De-
troit local today sued a bank
president for $40 million in two
separate Slander actions.
The suits were brought
against Omar P. Hewitt, jr.,
president of the Florida Ma
tional Bank in Orlando. Mr..
Hoffa sued in United States
District Court for $40 million.
Local 299 sued in Dade County
(MiamD Circuit Court for $50
million.
The suits allege Mr.. Hewitt
falsely told the United States
Senate Rackets Committee that
Sun Valley, Inc, and the
Teamsters had interlocking di-
rectorates.
They charged that Mr.. Hew-
lit slandered Mr.. Hoffa by i'm
plying he pledged Detroit union
funds to Sun Valley, a project
near Titusville, Fla. They also
alleged the bank attempted to
keep the Teamsters funds on
deposit for itself.
Mr.. Hewitt's testimony, the
suits allege. was an attempt to
accuse Mr.. Hoffa of unethical
conduct in connection with
bank loans.
At Orlando, Mr.. Hewitt said
he had not seen the charges.
However. he said, "On the face
Of what I have heard, the entire
action is ridiculous, totally un-
warranted and not based on
fact"

A Romanian refugee said
yesterday the West is losing
the Cold War"
1T is losing it not because
it lacks the power to compete,
but because it refuses to face
up to reality" Secretary Cen
eral BrutuS Coste of the As
sembly of Captive Nations told
the American Legion's National
Security Commission, which
concludes a three-day session
here today.
Il believe that if the West
cannot somehow reverse its
cold war posture if it cannot
somehow go over to the often
sive instead of fighting on the
defensive, within the next sew
eral years we shall find our
selves confronted with the ter
rible choice of an all-out
nuclear war or capitulation,"
he said.
But Col. Paul Black Of Amer
lean University challenged this
view.
1--WE are not losing the cold
war" he said, but we are not
winning it either"
Mr.. Coste replied it was all q
matter of semantics.
Col. Black said this country's
biggest victory after World
War II was saving Western
Europe from communism.
Mr.. Coste said communism
had gained little ground in the
last decade by subversive and
deceptive operations.
1T has advanced and is dan
gerous because it conducts a
successful foreign policy and
equally effective diplomacy and
propaganda; because it has
been effectively inhibiting the
West in their years of superior
strength and because it is sue
cessfully projecting to the
world, not the image Of a bet
ter system of Government but
the image of a powerful, ire
sistibly winning movement" he
said.
Frank Mcnamara of the
House Un-American Activities
Committee, said the defeat of
freedom in Hungary was a ter
rife loss for the United States.
He added that Soviet success
with space satellites and moon
shots had had a tremendous
psychological effect "of fear"
on all America.

Miss Washington 1860

the local contest was de-
scribed by officials at
Station WWDC - Spon-
sor of annual run-off-
as "the toughest in
years." Ruth, neverthe-
less, won handily. She
vowed the judges-five
of whom were from New
York City-with her
beautiful face and strik-
ing 36-24-36 figure. But
she clinched it with her
talents as a singer.
Drawing on her lead
role as the fabulous Lola
in bees production
last spring of Damn
Yankees" the 18-year-
old beauty won them
over with her seXy but
sophisticated interpre-
tation of "A Little
BrainS-A Little Tai
ent." Since so per cent of
the ratings at Atlantic
City will be based on tai
ent, the judges, Monday
night, were sold, and

eve figured it was just
a beauty contest" they
explain. Ruth is senSi-
tive and show business
is tough" But Ruth per-
sisted and they gave in.
According to friends
of the family, Ruth-an
only child-comes by
her stage talents natu-
rally. Mrs. Rea, while
never a professional, was
a dancer in her early
years, and can often be
found assisting in the
production and direc-
ton of plays and extra
VaSanZaS IN and around
Chevy Chase, including
the productions at B-CC.
She also is a favorite of
the Chevy Chase teen set
as a chaperone.
Does she want to see
Ruth become an &C.
tress?
"Only if that's what
she really wants." Mrs.
Rea answers. "She is
planning to study child
education at Maryland
University, and I'd just
as soon see her do that,
if that's what she
wants." she says.
In addition to her
stage activities at B-CC,
Ruth also was editor of
the school newspaper.
She dates, but has no
steady boy friend. "The
last thing I want to do is
get married." she says.
"There are so many
things I want to do
first"
Likes Yellow
Ruth is S feet, 6 inches
tall and weight 118. Her
favorite color is yellow.
In sports she prefers
water skiing, but admits
she's still learning how
to do it. She's a fan of
rock and role but doesn't
have a favorite singer.
She often prefers the
tunes from musical COM
edieS such as Damn
Yankees" and "Guys and
Dolls.
In the three weeks re-
naming before she'll
leave the District for At
lantic City, Ruth says
she's got lots to do.
"You can never let up
on practice" she says,
$50 I'll be singing as
often as possible" She'll
also be meeting with Vir-
ginia Pailes, Miss Wash
ington of 1859, for brief
ings on the Atlantic City
pageant.
Asked Monday night if
she has a formula for
success, the new Miss
Washington never got a
chance to reply. A voice
in the crowd answered
for her:

D. c. Native

Though she lives in
Maryland, Ruth is one of
those allegedly rare crea-
tures-a native Wash
ingtonian. She was born
in Columbia Hospital on
June 7, 1912.
Now enrolled at the
University of Maryland
as a freshman, Ruth
first went to school at
Chevy Chase Elemen-
tary. From there she
went to Leland Junior
High and then to B-CC.
Her mother, Mrs. Courts
D. Rea, describes her as
slightly above average"
in classwork.
"But she's always been
interested in taking part
in plays and things like
that" Mrs. Rea adds.
At the ace 0f nine
Ruth began dancing les
sons and is now consid-
cred a promising bal
lerina.
How is it, then, that
she chose singing in
stead of dancing in the
Miss Washington con-
test?
"She's never had a
singing lesson in her
life," her mother ex-
plains, "but when we
saw her as Lola at
B-CC, particularly her
singing of "A Little
Brains-A Little Tai
ent," we came to the
conclusion that she was
showing promise as an
actress"
The B-CC production,
partly because of Ruth,
was a big success and at
tracted theater goers
from all sections of Met
ropolitan Washington.
1t even got reviews in
area newspapers.
