the State of Maryland, since
June IL when its new regula-
tory law went into effect, have
been after-hoping to put in Or
der an industry which many
felt had slid during the last
several years.
Reno of the Industry
It got a dubious reputation,
State officials said, because
there was virtually no regula-
tion once some of these firms
began operating. A national
business magazine described
the State as "the Reno of the
savings and loan industry"
The first step in the clamp
down was to clear out the dead
wood in the industry-revoca-
ton of 257 association charters,
mainly because they were not
actively engaged in business
This brought the number OF
State-authorized home loan
firms down to 425.
At the same time an audit of
other firms got under way by
the Department of Assessments
and Taxation, headed by Albert
w. Ward. So far, as a result OF
the audit, two firms have been
placed under conservators and
three others are being managed
by court-appointed receivers.
Salvage Is Aim
A conservatorship is less
drastic than a receivership. The
former is ordered by a court
when it appears that a firm
may be salvaged by being re-
organized.
Under receivership, a COM
pany is usually. although not
necessarily. liquidated-asset:

The
Rambler
Wishes You
A Merry Christmas
BY GEORGE KENNEDY

Thoughts on the impor-
tance of this day after a tour
of the Kress and Mellon and
other collections of old mas
tiers in the National Gallery:
The Rambler made such a
pilgrimage last week with DR..
Raymond Sites, head of the
Gallery's educational work.
Here is a pageant of TOO
years of the ChriStianization
OF Europe.
We started at two 18th
century panels of the Virgin
side by side, one Gothic Tor
WeStern), the other Byzan-
tine from what was then the
greatest city of Europe, Con-
Stantinople.
1t is said that the one sur
vival of Gothic art is the
Jack, Queen and the King on
the playing cards. But Mary,
in both the Gothic and the
Byzantine paintings is ele-
waited far above mere royalty.
Although stylized and severe,
she is more divine than hu-
man. In the Gothic picture
she is seated in flowing robes
on a throne or a pedestal, as
it were, holding a baby. In
the Byzantine painting she is
sitting in an elaborate i'm
perial throne of gold. She is
holding her Son in her arms,
a little man with a beautiful
head of hair backed by a
golden halo with three red
wedges, for the Holy Trinity.
In his Mont st. Michel
and Chartres," Henry Adams
places the spread of the cult
of Mary between the con-
struction of the. 11th CEN
tury Benedictine abbey to
the Archangel on the Nor
mandy coast and the 18th
century cathedral to Our
Lady at ChartreS on the
plains south of Paris.
Evening star., 1961-12-25

1T WAS THEN that her
influence on civilizing Europe
had its real beginnings. That
Woman's position in Chris
tian culture is superior to
that of women IN other cul-
lures is due in great measure
to the influence of this per-
sonification of chastity, COM
passion and all the goodness
summed up in the word
Mother.
Now we will see how she
became more and more hu-
man in appearance as paint
ing progressed" said DR..
Sites.
He placed the change from
the stylized Semi-divinity to
the emergence of a lovely
young Italian girl in the ma
donnas through a Duccio di
BuoninSegna, painted in
Siena about 1900; and Ale
bretto Nugi, painted at Fa-
briano in Eastern Italy about
1850; a Massacio painted in
Florence about 1920; a ma
donna painted by Botticelli,
a Florentine, about 1470 and
an Alteration of the Magi by
the same artist circa 1882.
And then we came to one
of the worlds great paintings,
the huge circular Alteration
of the Magi, begun in Flor
ence by a Dominican monk,
Fra Angelica, and finished
about 80 years later by Fra
Lippo Lippi, a Carmelite
monk.
Which artist painted which
figures can only be conjec-
tured. But it is nice to think
that the girliSh blond mother
and her plump baby were
painted by Angelica whose
child-like piety is so evident
in his very simple painting of
the Visitation in the Uffizzi
at Florence, a picture that is
in every book on the history
of art.
And it is natural to think
that the gorgeous peacock
perched atop the humble
stable where a COW and a
donkey are feeding from the
manger, was done later by
Lippi who was a worldly
monk.

One of the surest danger signs Of tense
ness is a roomful of silent players. When
silence sets in, it means we're much too
bound up with our secret thoughts. I'm
worried about hundred technical details.
Each player fears he won't perform well.
When that happens, we're in for defeat.
I'll 60 to any lengths to keep my players

One night in the St. Louis auditorium,
my team was dressed, ready to meet the
hot-shot Billikens of St. Louis u. l could
feel the boys fighting their hopped-up
nerves. The auditorium has two main halls
- one for basketball, the other for SYM
phonic concerts Just then the door opened
and lady hustled in, carrying cello.
She was portly and had quite a struggle
with the cello and then she saw IL gentle
men sitting around in short pants. "Eeek!''
she screamed. This isn't the right place!'
When she wrestled her cello out, blush
ing, the boys broke up in laughter.
Nicely loosened up, they played great
and winning game against the Billikens.

Some organization heads I've known

side of things, but it's great help. Espe-
cially when you're dealing with critics -
