HOLLYWOOD.-We were
having one Of our January
heat waves when I visited
with Janet Leigh in her
beautiful new home on q
knoll above Beverly Hills. She
was wearing a pink play suit
and her figure looked more
like a teen-ager's than that
of a mother of two.
You have never looked
better" I said, admiring her
new hairstyle and her clear,
tanned skin.
Janet smiled. Never, never
in my whole life have I been
given as many compliments

Janet paused thoughtfully
before she said, II think 1t

"When you are disturbed.

problems, people notice it
without you realizing it."

I've been happy about it."

II think a person should
change. You should not wear

did at 18. But Just to adopt a
fashion because it is new! I
don't believe in this kind of
change. It doesn't mean a
thing unless you feel that it
is yours. But the only way
you can discover what suits
you best is to experiment.

Richmond National Battle
field Park is a far easier objec-

Washington than it was for the
Army Of the Potomac during
the Civil War.
It took the Union forces
seven campaigns. four major
battles and a siege to topple
the capital of the Confederacy.
But its fall brought a speedy
end to the war.
Many of the sites of these
frustrating Federal attacks are
well preserved today as part of
the 800-acre Battlefield Park.
1t is a 110-mile drive south
from Washington along Shirley
highway and U. s. Route /.
The park is split into 10 Sec
tions in and around Richmond,
To take in all of the battlefields
requires a trip of 81 miles from
the starting point in Chin
borazo Park on East Broad
street.
The National Park Service
holds a 6-acre parcel of this
city park, which was the site
of the Chimborazo Hospital
during the war. The main
visitor center for the Battle

information about a battlefield
tour is available.

but 1t was the Bartok that will
linger in the memory.
Bernstein's is, it seems to
me, one of the great readings
Of the Concerto for Orchestra.
This unbearably poignant piece
composed by a gentled Bartok
who was looking forward to the
cold landscape of death and
looking backward to the warm
pulse of life, demands the ut
most degree of technical mas
terry on the part of all con-
cerned with its recreation.
This Bernstein and the Phil
harmonic have.
Perhaps Bernstein does nuGl
quite achieve the Olympian Sc
renity of Reiner and his Chi
cagoans. To my mind, he
makes up for this by a pas
sionate personal involvement in
the score, and the fierce elo-
quence of the lines he wrenches
from his men is something un-
forgettable.
Drama and contrast are
BernStein's forte. Who sets
forward the unearthly beauty
of Bartok's strings after the
grinning blare of the Shostako-
vich interruption with greater
effect? This, and many other
touches, revealed the uniquely
penetrating musicianship of the

Well, the New York Philhar-

the worlds great orchestras.
This was plain even in the first
few minutes of yesterday after
moons concert at Constitution
Hall from the electric sound of
the ensemble, but it became
palmer with the simply mag
niflcent reading of the Bartok
Concerto for Orchestra with
which Leonard Bernstein
brought the affair to a brilliant
conclusion.
It was not always thus. Be-
fore Bernstein. the New York
Philharmonic had fallen on
evil days, and the once-proud
orchestra of ToScanini was a
sorry thing to hear. Those
days are now gone. however,
and 1t would seem that a new
golden age is about to begin.
AS everybody knows, Bern

dancer and consummate artist
all rolled up into one. Oh. yes
he also is a flrst-rate con-
ductor, and the orchestra he
heads is now beginning to re-
feet accurately his complex
and intense personality.
The program was ideally
suited to Bernstein's gifts. His
own bubbling overture to Can
dide was brash and jaunty as
a New York cab driver; the Roy
Harris third symphony recalled
this composers once-great
promise never. unfortunately,
quite realized; Ell Salon Mex
leo gave the conductor an OPP
portunity to put on a virtuoso
display as premier danseur.
