The celebrated sound of the
Philadelphia Orchestra under
Eugene Ormandy was on dis
play at Constitution Hall last
night, and the novelty of the
program was a new symphony
by Richard Yardumian, a COM
poser whose work the orchestra
has championed.
The new piece turned out to
be most conservative in style.
which was no great surprise and
is certainly no great evil. The
trouble, I think, is that ] found
myself constantly looking up
at the movie the symphony is
obviously supposed to accom-
pany-and there was no movie.
The festivities began with a
reading of the Haydn CLOCK"
symphony. Everything was pol
ished, beautiful and uniform
ly soggy. The trouble seems to
lie with this narcissistic pre-
occupation with the sound for
its own sake. While everybody
is polishing up the tone, the
humor and architecture are
left TO take care of themselves
as best they can.
In the case of Haydn, they
do not take care of themselves
very well. If such things as the
amusing aSymmetry of the i'm
itations in the last part of the
minuet are to have an effect,
the conductor and the players
must give at least some indica-
ton that they are aware of
what sly old Haydn is about.
The Hindemith is another
matter. This solid master is
rarely thought of as one of the
funny men of serious music,
but the Metamorphoses are
good clean fun even in a lush
and solemn performance.
The Roussel suite brought
the evenings best playing. The
exquisite sound of the orches-
tra's strings is not merely i'm
posed on the andantino. it is

means of its realization.

Demo Women's Head
SIops Boffin On
His Housing Vote

CONRAD-"The recent vote of
Rep. James Battin Republican
Second District) against President
Kennedy's program for better hous-
ing for Americans is particularly
shocking in view of new figures
on housing conditions just released
by the Bureau of the Census" said
Mrs. Norma Keil, president of the
Montana Democratic Women's
Club, this week.
These figures show that in 1860
in Rep. Battin's own district" Mrs.
Keil continued, that "out of total
of 1922 housing units 23,736
were in deteriorating condition,
and an additional 3,268 were al
ready classified as sdelapidated'.
These figures also show that 1908
of these units were so crowded that
there was not even one room per
person living in them.
This may be the kind of hous-
ing that Rep. Battin thinks is good
enough for the people of his dis
trict, but am sure almost every
one else here feels it just isn't good
enough and that Rep. Battin let
the district down when he voted
against President Kennedy's pro-
gram to do something about these
conditions. Luckily, the program
passed in spite of Rep. Battin's
opposition" Mrs. Keil concluded.
