In Miniature

Most of his works are tiny
some 5 inches square,
matted against wide white
borders. The medium is oil,
but on paper rather than
canvas. All are sunny por-
tions Of an impressionistic
painting. with mnted blues
and green's and oranges, like
bits Of a Monet lake. Each
is topped with a delicate de-
sign, a laughing child-like
box or circle. Charming is

high school senior this fall,
and is thinking of college. We
want her to go to a girls col
lege, but she insists that q coed
school will be better for her.
Maybe I'm an old-fashioned
mother, but doesn't 1t stand
to reason that when boys and
girls are thrown together on
the same campus. that they'll
be distracted and do little
studying? I've read a lot about
dating that goes on at colleges,
and the wild parties they have.
My daughter is too young for
that. But she insists that she's
old enough to take care of her
self at a coed school. What
do you advise?
A. This time I'll have to
side with your daughter. l be-
lieve in coeducational colleges.
I think its healthy and whole
some to have boys and girls
together on the same campus,
working together, studying to-
gether and getting to know
each other. OF course, there
are some students who prefer
the quiet atmosphere of an
all-girl. or an all-men's in
stitution. That's O matter Of
taste. But If your daughter
wants to go to q mixed cam
pus, by all means let her do
so.
Actually, you can find dat
ing and wild parties, as you
call them, on any campus,
whether mixed or all girls,
Usually dating takes place on
week ends. anyway, at all col
leges. I guess 1 can talk from
personal experience: One of my
daughters attended an all-girl
college (Smith) last year. and
the other q coed university
Of Rhode 1sland. They both
did well, as far as their study
ing was concerned. And both
had their share of dates and
parties. AS I said before, it's
a matter of taste. I'd ask. not
is this a coed or all girls col
lege, but "how good is it,"
That. really, is the key ques-
ton to answer.
@. AS a mother of teen-age
boys, I am quite unhappy al
the inadequate educational ia
cilities available locally. Much
of my children's free time is
spent in being tutored in sub
jects which they take in public
school and can't pass. What's
wrong with our teachers these
days? My question is this:
Would you advise me to take
the two boys out of public
school and put them into
private schools where they
would learn study habits? Be-
sides, they'd have a better
chance at a good college,
wouldn't they? What's wrong
with our public schools?
A. Nothing, really. to an
swer your last question first.
The more 1 see schools in
other countries of the world,
the more I am convinced that
basically we have a sound,
democratic public school sys-
tenn. You blame the teachers
on the fact that your boys are
doing poorly in school. Per-
haps they are to blame. But
I wouldn't jump at such a
conclusion too rapidly. How do
you know. they will do better
in a private school?
I wouldn't advise you to take
your boys out Of public school
and send them to a private
school until you have made q
thorough study Of why they
are doing so poorly. Check
with your teachers and princi-
pals. You might even need to
call in a professional psyche
logist to determine whether
there are basic problems with
in the boys themselves. Private
schools serve a useful function

man show of New York art
lists, to run through August
%.
Jumbled together In the
back two rooms of the gal

Wigder Gallery

Paintings, Autographs and
drawings by Felipe Orlando.
a Cuban artist long resident
in Mexico, are on exhibition
through September 4 at the
Wigder Gallery of Modern
Art.
Mr.. Orlando, now so, is
about 20 years older than
most of the contemporary
Latin American painters
shown at the Pan American
Union. His work is q well
come reminder that in Latin
America as elsewhere a great
many artists concerned with
meaning did not either die or
convert when the new Amer
ican non-objectivity was
taken up by those who make
the mode. The paintings on
view at the Wigder offer suf-
ficient reason for all Of us
to be grateful that they did
not.
Formally, the Orlando
works relate to middle period
Cubism, with simplification,
distortion and rearrange-
ment of the human body
and Of its milieu going on
all over the place. Spiritu-
ally, they are closer, often,
to Max Weber; where Weber
gets a wry comment on the
human condition out of an
arced line, Mr.. Orlando gets
the same effect through his
personal variation on Cubist
distortion. Thus Homage to
Vivaldi," sees the same kind
of omic-pathetic concentra-
ton in a flute player that
Weber once did in a memoir
able painting. But Weber
did most Of it in pure line,
set in great blue planes, Mr..
Orlando contrasts sharply
the slim, straight hardness
of the instrument with the
contorted, soft, almost alb
domenal feeling Of the figure.
Pure Form
In this happy blend Of
manner and matter, the art
list sometimes comes down
on the side of pure form,
as in several paintings of
cities, in which the cubes
or near cubes Of buildings.
done in a narrow range of
related quiet colors, compose
the painting as the originals
do the city; sometimes,
again, he comes down on
the side of an almost sur
realist suggestion Of mystery
beneath the simplicity of ap-
pearence. Thus Watching
Sleeper" 1.-TWO Women" and
Fishermen" In each of
these three a fairly ordinary
event becomes touched with
mystery through the felt in
tenSity of the people. an in
tensity which communicates
itself largely through the
distortions of form chosen
by the artist.
In other paintings, notably
Encounter" the strangeness
becomes explicit: A woman,
lighted match in hand, stops
before a sprawied body on
the forest floor. Yet again,
the strangeness becomes more
subtle in the soft geometrical
construction of Bishop" and
the soft geometrical con-
structions of Bishop" and
Singer" All in all, an artist
capable of seeing curious
visions and tee mic ally
equipped to pass them along.

Fare Boost for
AB&W Buses

A requested az cent increase
in AB&W Transit Co. bus fares
for passengers who cross the
Virginia and District lines was
under consideration today by
the Metropolitan Area Transit
Commission after two days of
hearings. One more witness
will be heard Friday.
Charles E. Hammond, execu-
tive assistant to the Arlington

mission, suggested at yester-
days session that it might
be better for AB&W to elm
mate tokens for it's inter-
state passengers. He said the

be retained, meaning the only
fare increase would be a slight

the tokens. Mr.. Hammond sug-
gested that MATS study that
possibility.
The Arlington official ex-
planned that such a plan would
increase the bus company's
gross interstate revenues by
$4,000 a year.
Mr.. Hammond added that it
was his. opinion that the COM
pany oVerestimates it's opera

$95,000. He also added that the

by the company would earn it

can appeal to only one. If
Fairfax County had its pro-
portionate share. it would have
seven delegates"
The creation of new State
legislative districts, each rep
resented by only one delegate
or one State senator, would
eliminate this inequity, in Mr..
Lynch's view.
Basically, the Republican plan
offered by Mr.. Gerber would
allot representation on the
basis of population, but it would
continue the present system
of giving some areas several
members of each house.
For example, the Fairfax
Falls Church delegate strength
would be raised from two to
seven and its Senate represen-
tation from one to three. Both
Arlington and Alexandria would
retain one senator each, as at
present, but Arlington's dele
gates would be increased from
