Probably the most impor-
tant cultural dinner ever held
in Washington will take place
at the Statler on May 25.
To be followed by IAN
Evening With the Perform
ing Arts" the brilliant affair
will be the first formal gath
ering held by the National
Cultural Center which sent
out the invitations this week
end.
Everybody who's anybody
in the cultural life of the
Capital will be there in
person or in spirit. Obviously
those people who have only
been talking about culture for
years can't afford to be
absent, and those who are
truly interested are not likely
to miss the first opportunity
to rally behind the city's
greatest artistic undertaking.
VICE PRESIDENT NIXON
who hopes to attend, has
already donated $4,000 to the
cultural center. this writer
has discovered. Considering
he is not a man of great
wealth and he is running for
President this year, this is
all the more impressive.
If the Vice President can
give $4,000 to the great center
that will cost in the neigh
borhood of SIS million and
will provide Washington with
the means of rivalling the
cultural capitals of the world,
one suspects the list of
Washingtonians who can give
that much or more is easily
a yard long, small print,

controlled a 3,000-acre blaze
that had been raging since

The worst of the fires were
along the eastern slope of the
Sierra, in Northen California,
where more than 10000 acres
of woodland were destroyed,
much of it valuable ponderosa
pine.
Burned were nearly 100 mil
lion board feet of lumber
enough to build $500 average
sized homes-valued at more
than 81 million.
The best news from the
Sierra was word of reduced
winds and increased humidity.
Hundreds of deer and other
wildlife periShed in the Sierra
blazes. Conservationists were
planning immediate reforesta-
ton to restore devastated
watersheds.
While men were still battling
the flames, others dropped
mustard and rye seed from
planes and helicopters, hoping
the seed would quickly root and
hold the soil before fall rains
bring floods and erosion.
In Nebraska, rangers kept a
close watch on Sowbelly Can
yon, a rugged pine ridge area
west of Chadron. Flames broke
out of the canyon for a while
yesterday but were quickly
contained.
In addition to the three
