Beckett performances in last
seasons Beckett"
Laid back-to-back this way,
the two English free-style per-
formances might stir an agnos-
tic impulse among the Method
Acting congregation in this
country. These towering artistic
achievements, however, can be
rationalized. After all, look at
the characters Scofield has, and
Olivier had, to play. Remote,
these, and full of majesty or
saintliness. AS against what?
The drunken, unfrocked, nym-
phet-obsessed cleric Patrick
O'Neal plays in Tennessee Will
liams' Night of the Iguana?"
Or the characterized, dim
pied opportunist hero portrayed
by Robert Morse in How to
Succeed in Business Without
Really Trying"
Part of the difference may be
explained, the reasoning goes,
by the difference in English and
French C"Becket~ playwriting
and that of this country. The
latter is real, the former earnest
and who, in his right mind,
could doubt the advantage of
the latter to an actor?
These things, you see, can be
rationalized.
Not altogether comfortably,
however, when one moves into
the area of distaff acting.
The competition among ac-
tresses will be sturdier but the
general conclusion is that Mar
garet Leighton of England is
the years outstanding feminine
performer. This. the more re-
markably, in a play as natural
istic as Tennessee Williams
Night Of the Iguana."
Nof if English acting is to
make a sweep in both styles of
playwriting - even against a
glittering performance by Julie
Harris in an adaptation of a
French comedy-what happens
to Method?
Nothing really, except posi-
bly, a momentary embarraSs-
ment. And the need to remain
poised and cool while waiting
for Jason Robards, jr., or some
other American performer of
stature to get a role competitive
With their English equivalents
in reputation.
Among those deciding, or
long ago decided, that Mr.. SEQ
field and Miss Leighton are
the years outstanding per-
formers, many will notice a
piquant speech effect. This has
nothing to do with voice pro-
lection, one Of the first things
learned and never forgotten by
English professionals in the
theater.
It is the accommodation of
both Miss Leighton and Mr..
Scofield to an easy and al
together attractive blending of
their native and American
speech rhythms, as distinct
from accent. Sir Laurence is

old mother Of President Ken

been troubled by a pelvic
hernia. She has been I'M

NEW DELHI, India, Mar.
14.-Mrs. Jacqueline Ken
nedy mounted a dark bay
mare and, in perfect style,
took the jumps with the
bodyguard of President
Rajendra Prasad on their
riding grounds today.
A seasoned horsewoman,
the First Lady welcomed the
diversion to top off a busy
day in which, among other
things, she fed a baby ele-
plant and presented a port
able playroom and art studio
to the children OF India.
The presidential guard lent
Mrs. Kennedy the mare,
named Shahzadi. That means
princess. Ten men of the
guard rode with her.
Praises Mount
They watched with ad-
miration as, in hunting cap
and jodphurs, she took the
mare over the standard
jumping course without fault.
And Mrs. Kennedy praised
the borrowed mount as one
Of the best she had ever
ridden.
"She jumped like a bird"
she said.
The details of Mrs. Ken
nedy'S unexpected outing
were delivered to reporters
by United States Ambassador
John Kenneth Galbraith.
In presenting the portable
playroom and art studio, the
art-loving mistress of the
White House said 1.-THE art of
children is really the same
the world over"
Presents Dolls
Mrs. Gandhi gave Mrs.
Kennedy five dolls dressed in
Indian regional costumes and
IL water color paintings
which won the New Delhi
school children's art contest
last week. These were pre-
sented to the First Lady on
behalf Of Indian children.
The ceremony was held in
Mr.. Nehru's flower garden
amid a group of Indian art
lists, musicians and theater
people.
But first Mrs. Kennedy was
introduced to Mr.. Nehru's
Compound baby elephant, an
11-month-old female called
Urvashi (fairy). The infant
trumpeted in excitement and
took milk from a bottle and
tidbitS of sugar came, carrots
and bananas from Mrs. Ken
nedy's hand.
This is what she likes"
Mrs. Kennedy said as she
proffered another piece Of
banana.
A gladiola garland that
she placed around the ele-
plants head was quickly
added to the menu.

it,"
When the frivolity was
over, the First Lady faced
a battery of microphones and
delivered her brief, memo
rized message. She could
hardly be heard. and she
gave it a second time.
After lunch with Mr..
Nehru, Mrs. Kennedy was
taken on a drive through
the old Delhi. She passed the
300-year-old red sandstone
fort Of India's mogul emper-
ors and other reminders of
Delhi's history.
Sees Fashion Show
At the store Mrs. Kennedy
slipped tea and watched a
fashion show staged by Indian
women and American resi-
dents of New Delhi. The
latest Indian fashions and
Western style dresses made
with Indian fabrics were dis
played.
Mrs. Kennedy walked
around the store, showing
particular interest in a 81
paper mache lacquered box
and a $4,000 gold and enamel
parrot statuette.
The store gave Mrs. Ken
nedy a blue cotton skirt and
blouse outfit with little mir
rors inlaid in white embroi-
derry as a gift.

Indian Women Note Fashions

fashion pace-setter in Europe
and America.
The sari Is the basic Indian
dress. : 1t is a rectangular
piece of cloth about 6 yards
long and 3 feet wide. Indian
women gracefully wrap it
around their bodies, gather
ing it at the waist and letting
the loose end dangle over
one shoulder. With the sari
they wear an abbreviated
blouse called a choli.
If Paris, Rome, London and
New York couturiers empha-
size a particular fabric, such
as chiffon, it may start show
ing up at parties in Bombay,
New Delhi and Calcutta. The
same goes for colors, espe-
cially pastel shades.
Upper-class Indian women
closely watch Western blouses
and necklines because their
blouse like choli gives them
the biggest chance of vary
ing their fashions.
Cholis can have high or
low necklines, long sleeves or
short.
Over the past 10 years
more and more Western
women have been buying
Saris to use in elegant West
ern-style cocktail and eve
ming dresses. The Indian
government has also been
tremendously successful in
promoting the use of Indian
