BY DAY THORPE
Star Music Critic

At the first meeting of the
Citizens Committee to Save
Lafayette Square last week.
80 or 40 people gathered
together to effect their COM
mon purpose of forestalling
the destruction of the build
ings on the east side of the
front yard of the White
House. They were motivated
by sundry sentiments-nos-
talgia, distaste for govern
ment-gothic, the sense of
history and a desire for a
new operating theater in the
near future. Bills are now
before Congress to save the
Lafayette Square Opera
House later called the Be-
lasco Theater) and to re-
store it to the condition 1t
was in when purchased by
the Government in 1910.
To have strength, such a
movement should enjoy sin
gleness of purpose inspired
by a variety of incen-
tives. Fortunately, every
body wanted to save the old
block of buildings and there
was no common reason ad-
vanced why the rescue is
necessary. nor any universal
attestation to the beauty of
the street. Some found the
Belasco only potentially utili-
tartan, while to me it also is
beautiful. although obviously
not to be claSsed with our
temporary buildings on the
Mall, presently under no
sentence of destruction.
Doubts as to History
What was most curious to
me, however, was the doubt
whether the Belasco could be
rebuilt into. a f1rst-rate theater
whether in fact it had ever
been one. There was a gen.

called at the Belasco and con-
veyed word that the White
House would appreciate it if
Mr.. Rogers would eliminate
the joke. AS it was an inn
portant part of his routine
and got appreciatiye audience
response, Rogers refused"
Several months later when
Rogers was in town in anoth-
er Ziegfeld show he tried to
get an invitation to a White
House reception and was
politely informed none was
available" Whereupon, Rog-
ers added a few lines not in
the script to his next per-
formance. "All my life I have
been making humorous obSer-
vations and comments about
the great and the near-great.
Invariably, they have &C
cepted it in a spirit of fun
and with an appreciation
that no malice was intended.
l regret that 1 have offended
President Harding, but I can
also say he is the first prom
inent man to publicly object
to my stage liberties. / am
sorry he can't take a joke"
Later in his career, 1 sus-
pect, Rogers would either
have left it out or frightened
it up, but nevertheless the
incident is perhaps an indica-
ton that our Presidents,
among whom Harding. Will
son, Coolidge and Hoover
we're fans of the Belasco. do
not invariably find a theater
at the front door of the
White House an umitigated
blessing. I, for one, devoutly
hope that future Presidents
will have an opportunity to
give the Belasco another
chance!

Two Punumuniuns

Seven years ago 10 artists
of Panama had a group show
at the Pan American Union.
Two of them, Roser Mum
tanola and Giro Oduber, now
married, have a Joint show at
the Union through Tuesday,
the first extensive exhibition
either has had in the United
States. Both are still in
their 30s.
Mr.. Oduber's collection is
much the more interesting
work. He shows 36 large pen
and ink drawings, IA of them
a series. The Way of the
Cross" the others figure sub
jects. mostly workers, farm
ers and Indians. But Mr..
Oduber draws them in a
highly individual convention,
their figures, hands and feet
comparatively representa-
tional, their heads and necks
like goblets with high stems.
And all are wrapped" in
fine -meshed webs of lines.

naturaliStic interpretations,
looks as if she were strug-
Cling to escape from a net.
Miss Muntanola's IL oil
paintings are also devoted to
a convention of placing fig
ures that resemble heavy soft
rubber dolls with vestigial
limbs, in lattice patterns. Her
colors are blurred and grayed,
her edges soft. She also
likes watermelon, judging
from several large, luscious
slices depicted in two paint
tngs.

these contemporary Pana-
manians are reported in the

The Abstracts
In the opposite category,
abstract and non-objective,
I thought Maria Falloni's
Explosion" particularly ef-
fective, Carlo Hollesch's
Classic Event" admirable in
its suggestion of measured
movement, Silvio Loffredo's
Sea" a beautiful mass of
color, although it conveys the
impression of a garden or
flower bed: and Leonardo
Ricci's Molten Flow" aptly
titled, a rich mass of con-
trasting tones and colors.
In the large middle" ma
jority, some paintings closer
to naturalism, others to alb
straction, there is admirable
and interesting work. Paint
ings 1 liked best are Primo
Conti's large, reverent 'Pieta,"
its emotion expressed in the
poses and gestures of the at
tenuated figures; Guido Ber-
gianni's tapestry-like Feast
of the Ascension" Filippo de
PiSis' near monochromatic

"Florentine Houses" Lucio

Naturally. there are some
paintings which seem trivial,
or quite devoid of merit,
arousing wonder as to how
they came to be included.
But they are in a minority.

from traditional (13 paint

flgurative and "middle-of-
