Andre Watts, the 16-year-
old pianist praised by Conduc-
tor Leonard Bernstein and
New York critics ever since he
pinch-hit for Glenn Gould last
January, was giving a concert
yesterday for an audience
composed primarily Of q hand
full of pianos.
Andre was in the Campbell
Music Company's warehouse.
picking out his Steinway. He
was like a sports car driver
choosing between two Ferraris.
or a woman deciding between
two mink coats. The slim boy
played a few laundering bars
then a lyrical passage. then
jumped up and tried another
piano.
That's number 245. the one
Van uses" said a Van Cilburn
follower. After trying the pi-
amos several times Andre said
he had not made up his mind
and was going to try the
one presently on stage at Con-
stitution Hall where he will
perform Sunday under the di-
rection Of Mr.. Bernstein.
Andre possesses none OF the
arkwardness OF teen-agers and
there is a cool poise beyond
his years. When other boys
we're playing ball in the streets
of Philadelphia. 9-year-old An
DIRE was making his debut with
the Philadelphia orchestra.
Born in Nurnberg. Germany,
the son OF an American GI
and his Hungarian war bride,
Andre started playing the pi-
ano and violin at the age Of
6. but he said yesterday that
"the violin didn't take" He
lived in Germany until he was
8, then moved to Philadelphia
where he now lives with his
mother.

from Commemorative Attor-
ny Ralph Louk a ruling on

Alan Weber, father of a Sec

School, told the board he
would not pay the fee until Mr..
Louk ruled that it was legal
and the board "affirms the
legality"

CONCERT OF PIANOS
Performer, Is, Tests for Key Notes

Yesterday Andre said when
they called me I was shocked
at first. I thought. my God,
why me?' but after that /
wasn't particularly scared. I
was just as nervous as I am
with any other concert"
Andre, who finished high
school in an accelerated course
last year hopes to go to COL
lege next spring. He writes
poetry and short stories and
wants to learn Russian and
French.
He feels as a pianist he has
much TO learn" and says "I
am not pushing it. I have only
five or six performances a
year"
Unlike some performers, An
Dire says he is always aware
Of his audience. Otherwise,
what is to stop me from all
Of a sudden trailing off and.
say, chewing my finger nails?
But Of course you shouldn't be
so aware that you begin show
ing off for their benefit"
1t is a certain thing the
audience will be aware OF An
DIRE. Quickly signed up by Co.
lumbia records. Andre reports
the first record already is do
ing well. There will be more
concerts and more television
appearances.
But yesterday, In his crew
neck sweater, Andre seemed
unconcerned with all that. He
Just wanted TO get back to
testing his pianos. II looked
like Van Cilburns piano might
finish last.
II like a singing tone and
, a brilliant piano. When I first
went over this piano, thought
II would be the one" he said
touching 245. 1T sings nicely
but II sings a little muffled.
This one over here ripples
more. 1t sounds watery."

Mr.. Jones said. that Mrs. Jones
would die without a transfu-
sion. But, he said. you don't
break principles you must
obey Gods rule instead of
mans"
The hospital and the judge,
he said, could be out on a
limb-they broke a principle
they we're meddling."
In scores of cases here, in
other parts of the United States,
in England and Canada, paral-
lei legal battles have been
fought over the refusal of indi-
vidual Jehovah's Witnesses to
permit blood transfuSionS to be
given to members of the sect.
Their belief, sect members
have stated, is based on several
passages in the Bible, including
one in Leviticus (17:14), which
reads, in part: "The life of
every creature is its blood;
whoever eats it shall be cut
off"
witnesses interpret these
passages as meaning that a
person who agrees to accept a
blood TRANSMISSION may be de-
MED eternal life.
In most of the court cases
involving children, judges have
signed the life-saving order.
Attorneys connected with the
case said they could not recall
any prior TRANSMISSION order in
volving an adult in the WASH
ington area.

Power Line Plan Draws
Montgomery Protests

The transmission line Is
sought to meet demands during
such periods as prolonged heat
waves, which spur the use Of
air conditioning and refrigerat-
ing equipment, according to
Rowland L. Bortner. manager
Of PEPCO's real estate division.
Last summer we were only
$4,000 kilowattS short Of run
ming at full capacity" Mr.. Bort
ner said.
The new line would enable
PEPCO to draw power from
VEPCO stations during an
emergency and vice versa.
An Argument
However. protesting residents
charged that both the Mary
land and Virginia areas are so
similar that emergencies would
occur on both sides of the
Potomac at the same time.
James r. Miller, jr.. attorney
for a group of Montgomery land
owners, said the transmission
line would interfere with radio
and television reception within
a half-mile radius. PEPCO
SpokeSmen denied such inter-
ferance would result.

Fine Arts Unit Gets
Wotergote Briefing
BY ROBERT ]. LEWIS
Star Staff Writer

A touch of old-world politesse
marked today's meeting of the
Fine Arts Commission as it
heard Prof. Luigi Moretti ex-
plain his design for the $50
million Watergate development.
In rapid Italian, the distin-
guished professor Of architec-
ture from the University of
Rome apologized for not speak
ing English.
The comission's chairman,
william Walton, quickly replied:
I'VE apologize to you, sir,
for not speaking Italian"
From that beginning. it was
clear sailing almost all the way
for Signor Moretti, the rotund.
talented and eloquent chief
architect for the Foggy Bottom
apartment, hotel and office
building development. His de-
sign was castigated bitterly by
a previous commission as too
dramatic for Washington"
Model On Table
The Italian architect contin-
ued TO speak during the meeting
In italian. His words were trans
lated into English by Gabor
Acs. an associate from Rome.
With a model of the project
resting on a big table. the mem
bers Of the reshuffled Fine Arts
agency looked and listened,
They made a few polite and
interesting coments but we're
notably reticent in expressing
opinions on the design.
Today's session was the final
one at which David z. Finley,
former chairman. will serve.
Mr.. Finley's successor, Cor
don Bunshaft Of New York.
was named yesterday by Presi-
dent Kennedy.

New BUILDINGS
'GruceIess'

A prominent Washington
architect today attacked many
newly constructed Washington
office and Government build
ings as fiat, graceleSs forms
tightly clad in Store-bought
SUITS" singing out new Gov
ernment buildings near the
Mall as victims Of "elephan-
tiasis."
Francis d. Lephbridge, a
partner in the firm Of Keyes,
Lephbridge g. Condor and a
winner of a number Of archi-
tectural awards for good design,
said the wide local use Of
some of the more highly in
dustrialized components Of the
building products industry" had
failed to produce good build
ings.
Speaking at the opening ses-
sion Of the 42d annual meeting
Of the Producers Council at the
Shoreham, Mr.. Lephbridge said
a critical look at recently con-
structed Washington office
buildings showed that the ma
jority Of them appeared to
lack any serious purpose other
than individual economic gains" /"
There are many buildings
here in Washington, completed
or under construction" he
said, that are simply a literal
transcription Of the maximum
coverage allowed by law, fat,
graceless forms tightly clad in
store-bought suits-more likely
than not a dark gray pinstripe
or a bowling check.
They have much more in
common with one another than
they have with the earlier res
idents Of the street. Frequent
ly. part Of the problem is sheer
size alone. a chronic elephan-
tiasis that may be seen in some
Of the mammoth new Govern
mnet office buildings near the
Mall. a grossness that goes
hand In hand with monotony.'

MAYBE THE MAN has
something. If the United
States stops drinking coffee
there would be serious con-
sequences -.
South America would go
broke and Communist.
obstetricians would be un-
able to stay awake.
In place Of coffee, work.
ers might begin having gin
breaks.
Most people would go back
to bed in the morning and
never get to work.
Ships of the Navy would
run aground with everyone
on board sound asleep.
There would be those who
would stay unpleasantly
tight much longer.
Congress would never ad-
journ.
Juries would be unable to
come to any decision.
Doughnuts would taste
terrible.
SO would cigarettes.
Police and Fire Depart
ments would be unable TO
operate, as would state and
local governments.
Well, as Senator Fulbright

thing. And the coffee people

Hears
A Warning
BY JOHN McKELWAY

Nearly every day some
new crisis arises to threaten
the tranquility and serenity
of our Society"-Senator Full
bright.
Came across one the other
day in the mail. Don't re-
m IN ber seeing anything
about it, or reading about it,
but it sounds pretty serious.
1t may be all over for South
America and that great
American tradition, gulping
coffee.
There is a man up in New
York named Andres Uribe
who appears to be desper-
ately trying to sound an
alarm. Mr.. Uribe is described
as the United States rep
resentative of the National
Federation of Coffee Growers
Of Colombia and he has
spotted dangerous indica-
tions of decline" in United
States coffee consumption.
He wants to launch a "con-
sumption expansion pro-
gram" before its too late.
This could be accom-
plished, Mr.. Uribe has an
nounced, if coffee producers
would contribute 81, for each
bag of coffee exported, to
what he calls a war chest"
"The 81 coffee-defenSe con-
tribution," he goes on to say,
would provide about $25
million for promotional pro-
grams"
He has come up with some
statistics which could scare
the pants off Juan Valdez
and anybody else who makes
a living from coffee:
There has been a decrease
in per capita daily coffee
consumption during the win
ter months, especially in the
youth population groups so
vital to the future of coffee"

cups per day, or IL cups per
person per day less than In
1862.
And, in 1868 (Mr. Uribe
apparently is talking about

that the rate per coffee
drinker was 4.12 cups as
against AIT cups in 1862,
He was also able to find

ers drinking coffee at cof-
fee breaks has dropped off
2 percentage points, this year
compared to last.
These are startling statis-
TICS" Mr.. Uribe has stated,
land should be startling
enough to shock the coffee
producing nations of the
world into urgent action" :
It is estimated that 73 per
cent of the population of the
United States drinks coffee.
But still Mr.. Uribe does not
feel comfortable. He has
warned coffee producers
that Coca Cola has an
nounced its goal of capturing
7 per cent of the coffee mar
ket." Watch out, too, he says,
for Pepsi Cola and milk and
fruit juices and frozen juices.
Quite disturbing, on top OF
all this, the Department OF
Agriculture has estimated
coffee consumption will de-
crease II per cent this year
while tea consumption will
increase by IT per cent.
This could cost coffee ex-
porting countries up to $96
million, Mr.. Uribe claims.
Still, coffee producers have
yet to move into a big pro-
motion campaign and Mr..
Uribe is beside himself. I'VE
must act now" he has said.
