Dogs Note:
Don + Bite
The MuiImen

Postmaster Joseph S. Frantz
of the Cleveland Post Office
today issued instructions to all
supervisors to alert mail car
riers at their units to the dan
ger of dog bites. Frantz pointed
out that this warning is espec-
tally important now that the
"dog days" are here again with
the danger of rabies infection.
Instructions are being posted
on the proper way to approach
dogs so as to overcome their
natural reaction to people un-
familiar to them.
The mail carriers are also
told how best to defend them
selves if a dog should attack
them. These warnings are nee
essary because Of the high in
cidence of dog bite injuries to
mailmen in the Cleveland area.
Micheael K. Noga, superint-
endent of the East Cleveland
Branch Post Office, is familiar
with this problem because Carl
Tirbasso, mail carrier at his
office, was a recent victim of
an unfriendly dog on his route.
Noga said that the public
could do much to relieve this
situation by keeping their dogs
on leash or confined at times
of mail delivery. Postmaster
Frantz noted that according to
law, dog owners are liable for
uniform damage as well as for
medical and doctor bills if their
dog bites a mail carrier.

Johann Sebastian Bach. the
king Of counterpoint. was the
center of interest at the Ma
tional Presbyterian Church yes
terday afternoon. Clarence Led
better's all-Bach program was
cleverly designed to offer some
of the masters most profound
and difficult works, and at the
same time to offer his listeners.
If not himself, a breather in
the fiery A minor Concerto
After Vivaldi.
Mr.. Ledbetter belongs to the
loud and-clear-and- no-molaS-
ses school of organists. His reg
iStrations are vivid; too few
organists will blend q mixture
with a solo stop as he did in
the prelude from the Orgel-
buechlein. His tempoS are gen.
orally quite fast, occasionally q
bit faster than I would like,
and once. in the first movement
Of the Concerto. After Vivaldi,
faster than was healthy. His
rhythmic sense is incisive. The
dotted rhythms in the E fiat
prelude were just right, that is
a little crisper than written,
for here as so often in Baroque
music, literal adherence to
what the notes seem to say is
a violation Of the style.
Mr.. Ledbetter does not en-
ploy that dreadful, smeared le-
cato so dear to the hearts of
most organists. Yet, he could
profitably move still further in
the direction Of breaking
phrases into smaller units. I felt
that the fugal sections Of the 3
minor prelude were especially
in need Of detached shaping.
On balance, it was an excit-
ing afternoon Of great music
played by an uncommonly fine
young organist.

Robert Guralnik, q young
American pianist Of no mean
proficiency. entertained the
National Gallery audience last
night with o program unique
in arrangement, II not in con-
tent. The Bach opened the Sec
ond half. and the big work Of
the evening closed the concert,
leaving the odds-and-ends
groups for the second spot. Not
that I object. I get tired Of
hearing programs arranged by
the calendar.
Mr.. Guralnik put off the
army's uniform just three days
ago. For the last three years
he has been piano soloist with
the West Point Band. Before
that. he had time to graduate
from Manhattan School Of
Music and to make some sue
cessful appearances in and
about New York.
His playing showed to best
advantage in the challenging
Barber sonata, which he played
with brilliance and with COM
plete authority in handling the
dynamic shape of the work. He
was also deft and brilliant in
that conservatory recital work.

The rest Of the program
showed less understanding. AL
lowing for some initial nerves,
the opening Mozart sonata took
a whole movement to get going.
Several passages dropped out
entirely; the forte was too
rough for Mozart, and even the
last movement, which was
played at the requisite speed.
was here and there indistinct.
The Brahms Capriccio was
heavy-handed Cor far too soft
and never exhibited the Puck
ish humor that is in the piece.
The Chopin was afflicted by a
broad-brush rubato. The Bach
was full Of stray, conventional
romantic swells. and had the
appoggiaturas all wrong. "
Nevertheless, this is a pia-
mist to watch. He is attuned to
the music Of his time, and can
learn the styles Of older music
with proper attention to rea-
sonably available sources Of in
formation. He has enough tech
nique, and control enough to

Retarded
Child Gets
Guidance
BY MRS. ALMA DENNY
THE PROBLEM

THE PROBLEM
Mrs. A. YIN afraid Rod
will have o relapse. His step
father is too stern.
James R.-Rod and / get
along fine. He knows I'm
absolutely fair.
THE DETAILS
Mrs. A. Y.-As Rods
grandmother. I've been
watching q distressful situ-
alton SNOWFALL.
The boy is IL. His par
ents, my daughter and her
first husband, were divorced
when Rod was q baby. When
the child failed to develop
normally. our pediatrician
pronounced him retarded"
and arranged for his amis-
sion to q special center. AZ
ter many tests, however, Rod
was found to be q bright
youngster, but emotionally
disturbed"
We transferred him to an
expensive residential school.
Gradually he crept out Of
his shell. My daughters new
husband. Jim, is a high
school teacher and q basket
ball coach. He says he'll
make a man of Rod. but /
think he'll break the boy.
When I visited over the
holidays. Jim made Rod go
out and clean up the yard
in freezing weather. Then
he made Rod stay in his
room the rest of the day for
missing a few papers.
James R.-When I mar
ried Ella. ! did so with my
eyes open. I knew all about
Rod, and had visited him
with her several times at the
boarding school.
Rods a good kid. All he
needs is some firm direction.
He's had too much hand
wringing and Mysteries all
his life, between his mother
and his grandmother. It
would get any kid mixed-up
and scared.
I've handled hundreds Of
boys. Rod is q special chal-
lenge to me. His grand
mother means well but she
is obseSsed by old memories
of Rods former condition.
Rod knows we each have
chores according to our cap
abilities. His mother and /
don't lie down on our jobs.
He must learn he can't pass
the buck either.
THE COUNCILS VIEW
The best course here. for
all concerned. would be to
defer to the opinion Of the
school personnel at the spe-
cial institution attended by
Rod.
Evidently Jim is guided by
two potent facts: First, that
the educators considered Rod
well enough to be rams
ferred to q regular school
with its unsheltered, unpre-
dictable rough-and-t tumble
exposure; second. that Rods
mother was getting no
where" with him in so far
as preparing and fortifying
him for normal contacts.

boys special blocks and SEN
sitivities, and the full back
