In last nights wet weather,
nothing held its tune; not the
Phillips Gallery's piano, not
Mr.. Ritter's violin and at
first-not my equable temper
ament.
For Mr.. Ritter, assistant
concertmaSter Of the st. Louis
Orchestra, and his wife, Miss
Allen, began their recital with
an alleged Mendelssohn violin
sonata discovered" in the
German State Library (where
it has been in the catalogue for
about 100 years. and recently
published by Yehudi Menuhin.
The handwriting Of the
manuscript makes absolutely
clear that the sonata is a draft,
not a finished composition, and
a moments attention to the
music compelS one to congrat-
ulate Mendelssohn for not hav-
ing wasted time trying to rear
this wayward child. The piece
should never have been printed,
and it certainly must not be
played in public.
Mr.. Ritter next turned his
attention to two Bach move
ments which, if my memory is
not playing petty tricks, are
from the A minor unaccom-
panied violin sonata. The play
ing was in the late 10Th CEN
tury tradition, complete with
trills started on the principal
note. Granted the tradition,
there was some fine playing
here. The episodes in the fugue
have a way of driving ever
harder toward the expositions.
Mr.. Ritter sensed this and
brought the structure Of the
piece to life in an intensely
musical fashion.

sayed the Prokofieff thirc

work, the piano had arrived
at the point where what passed

and perhaps the dentures OF
others. The tender sections Of
the piece were successful; the
driving ones less so. But under
the circumstances, it is hardly
fair to pass even the most
tentative judgment on Miss
Aliens solo playing.
The long and atavistically
passionate Bloch sonata was
the high point of the evening
The piece wears it's 40 years
lightly, and there is no deny
ing that Mr.. Ritter and Miss
Allen have a superb feeling for
its style. There are many diff
ficulties in the piece, technical
difficulties for each player and
problems of coordination be-
tween the two, and all were
mastered.
The playing was as convinc-
ing as it was skilled. The end Of
the sonata with its Strikingly
peaceful, major close received
a performance that deserves
to be called enlightening.

upon information that ap-
pears in PATTERNS Of DIS
EASE on diseases Of the eye.
These statistics will explain
why it is so important to
guard against losing your
precious vision.
WOMEN HAVE weaker
eyes than men. In the 30-34
age group, 48 per cent Of
women have defective vision
as compared to ~ per cent
of men. In the 1880 age
group the percentage is even
greater: 81 per cent of men
compared with SO per cent
of women.
Every other person in the
United States wears either
eyeglasses or contact lenses.
The estimates are IT million
and 6.5 million respectively.
Only about 43 per cent Of
people have normal vision.
There are 100000 blind
perSons in the United States.
Also about 2 million with
serious visual impairiments.
In fact, poor vision and
blindness rank fourth in the
list of disabilities we suffer
in this country-outranked
only by impairments of hear
ing; of the limbs. back. and
trunk; and of the lower
extremities.
Each year nearly 10000
Americans become blin d.
