In the background is an or
der from Federal District Judge
Oren r. Lewis which says Vir-
ginia may not operate public
schools elsewhere in the State
as long as those in Prince Ed
ward County remain closed.
An appeal of this order is
scheduled to be heard in Alex
andria on January 9 before the
Fourth Circuit Court of APP
peals.
Appeal Expected
Judge Lewis, as well as other
Federal jurists, had indicated
they preferred to abstain from
passing on the issues until aft
er State courts had ruled. The
decision of the Richmond Cir
cult Court, regardless of what
it may be, is expected to be
appealed to the State Supreme
Court.
The State is expected to use
this argument in asking the
Federal Court on January 9 to
stay any further action on
Judge Lewis order.
Judge John Wingo Knowles
of Richmond Circuit Court took
the case under advisement at
the end of the testimony. He
gave no indication when he
would hand down his decision,

The Bowers family left the
church before their identity

After two years of anony-

neighbors joined the gift-giving
project and started what was

Last night, the Statler's

Her daughters, Mrs. James

s. w. Tucker admitted he is I'M

Mr.. Tucker said he believes
that the Virginia General AS

for public schools. He cited
State Constitution requirement
that public schools shall be
maintained throughout Vir-

The Prince Edward County
Supervisors in 1858 shut off
funds for the operation of
schools after a Federal court
ordered desegregation there.
In court yesterday, the school
board, through its attorney,
Collins Denney, jr., admitted it
has a duty to reopen public
schools but said it is powerless
to act without funds from the

Mr.. Denney argued that I'M

BroyhiII Criticizes
Year 1000 Agency
'Cruckpot' Idea,
Legislator Says
Of Recent Plan
BY LEE FLOR
Star Staff Writer

Representative Broyhill today
said that a proposal to create
a super-agency to carry out the
Year 1000 Plan is a crackpot
idea"
Mr.. Broyhill. Republican Of
Virginia, said he was referring
to recent proposals to give the
National Capital Regional
Planning Council control over
regional development.
Representative Reuss, Demo-
crat of Wisconsin, and a his
toric opponent of Mr.. Broyhill,
yesterday proposed enlarging
the responsibilities of the Re-
gional Planning Council, giving
it responsibility for a long
range master plan modelled
after the Year 1000 Plan.
Mr.. Reuss is constantly COM
ing UP with new ideas for legis-
lation, and this is why other
Congressman do not put great
reliance on his proposals, Mr..
Broyhill said. ~
Recalls Agency Plan
Some time ago he came UP
with the idea of moving Federal
agencies away from Washing
ton." a proposal which would
seem to be opposed to the ideas
in the Year 1000 plan, Mr.. Broy-
hill said.
Then Mr.. Reuss proposed a
bill that would give the National
Capital Planning Commission
power to veto coming by local
governments for land along the
Potomac River. Mr.. Broyhill
said.
Any legislation proposed by
Mr.. Reuss would be referred to
the House District Committee,
and Mr.. Reuss is not a member
of that committee. Mr.. Broyhill
is on the District Committee.
Mr.. Broyhill said he would
support any legislation to
strengthen co-ordinating pro-
cedures used by the Metropoli-
tan Washington Council Of Gov
ernments and by the Regional
Planning Council.
Plan Support Mentioned
Mr.. Broyhill also pointed cut
that he and other members of
the Joint Committee on Metro
politan Washington Problems
(the Bible Committee} had
supported a law to coordinate
development of the National
Capital Region. The measure.
is titled washington Metro
politan Region Development
Act" and calls, for the "solu-
ton of the community develop
ment problems of the Wash
ington Metropolitan region on
a unified metropolitan basis"
The law does not mention
the Year 1000 plan, which was
made public after the measure
was passed by Congress and
signed by President Eisenhower.

The sponsoring Institute of
Contemporary Arts found its
name justified in the program
OF this brief recital-nothing
on the bill was written more
than two decades ago. There
was another unifying factor in
the program, education.
Education supplied the mott
vation for local composer Rob-
ert Evett's set of six etudes,
heard for the first time on this
occasion. The titles are tech
nical and self-explanatory; Re-
peated Notes; Double Notes;
Staccato; Thirds; Broken In

their mission with energy, re-
sourcefulness and grateful
brevity, they aim at and reach
no great musical heights.

Hindemith is a much more
ambitious affair, and a good
deal longer in the hearing, too,

Last nights audience at the
Library of Congress rose to its
feet at the conclusion of the E
minor quartet of Beethoven to
give a prolonged, standing ova-
ton to the four men, playing
as one, who for % seasons have
made the Coolidge Auditorium
one of the great world centers
of chamber music.
There was something special
in the air of the hall, for this
program (to be repeated for a
different audience this eve
ning) marks the end of the
Budapest Quartet's long tenure
as quartet in residence at the
Library of Congress under the
auspices of the Gertrude Clark
Whittall Foundation.
There, for a generation, they
have played the splendid Stra-
dwarf instruments given by the
same generous honor to the
library in programs that have
covered virtually the entire
quartet and quintet literature.
There were persons in the
audience who were at the first
of these concerts. There were
others. now capable quartet
players themselves, who were
not yet born when the series
started.
Appropriately, the quartet
played Beethoven. This is the
music they have made peculi-
arly their own. They selected
an early quartet, one of the
great middle-period works ded-
icated to Count Rasoumowsky,
and the last one.
TO each OF these works they
brought the vision that has al
ways been theirs: The vigor,
the boldnesS of attack that
brings into relief the titanic
struggle of the first movement
of the c minor quartet; the
puckish humor of the scherzi;
and the mystic exaltation of
the slow movements. And in
everything, they project more
than they actually say, so that
the small group of four strings
encompasses the heights and
depths of human emotion and
human thought.
Godspeed to the Budapest
quartet. May they play to-
gether long and happily, and
pass to the next generation of
players their dauntless spirit
and love of great music And
may they often return to their
friends in Washington.
