Sometimes some Of the most
stimulating programs Of sacred
music In the area are achieved
by the slender resources Of
small churches led by musicians
Of taste and vision, supported
by the clergy and membership.
/ had the good fortune to be
present at such an occasion last
evening when the Episcopal
Church Of Saint Clement In Alex
andria presented a program
made up entirely Of representa-
tive works by Heinrich Schuetz,
a German master born q cen
fury before Bach, the best of
whose music is one Of the great
glories of the church.
Highight Of Concert
The finest music Of the eve
ming, to my mind, was the feStal
setting Of the SOth Psalm, which
joined the choir to the soloists.
The Magnificent was sung by the
solo quartet, and most Of the
rest Of the program was typical
Schuetz-one or two solo voices
accompanied by a pair Of violins
and basso continue.
The voices were adequate, and
sang with good understanding Of
the music. tempt and styhstic
matters were handled well, and
I was especially pleased with
the harpsichord playing Of vii
son Townsend.
Maybe a whole evening of
Schuetz Is a little too much. |
found my attention tagging by
the time the love poetry from
the Song Of Solomon arrived.

makes Leonard de Paur's eco
nomical conducting style seem
even less assertive than it Is.
Noteworthy IN the group is q
section Of tenors which produces
comtertenor effects with admir-
able security. The splendid and
splenddly controlled sound Of
the chorus was considerably i'm
proved during the second half Of
the program, when the men were

Dedicated to Memory"
Music-lovers at Constitution
Hall yesterday found an extra
leaf tipped into their programs,
bearing the following words by
Mr.. Arrau:
Nothing exempHfies so
much the sufferings Of man,
his struggles, and his ultimate
victory Of spirit, as does the
music Of Beethoven. So, fitting
ly, this al-Beethoven program
is dedicated to the memory Of
our late President"
As Mr.. Arrau walked to the
center Of the stage In somber,
formal afternoon wear, there
was a noticeably subdued air
about the audience. Looking
around the hall during the
music, l could see heads turn
ing in the direction of Box Is,
traditionally occupied by the
President Of the United States.
It was evident that Wash
ington still has not recovered
from the shock of November q.
/ was not at the ''Image of
Chile" recital myself; l was
at the Philadelphia 0rchestra's
season-opener in Constitution
Hall (Which took place at the
same time), having planned to
hear Mr.. Arrau's Beethoven
yesterday. l therefore cannot
compare the two sets Of read
ings from personal experience.
However, both press and public
agreed that on September so,
Mr.. Arrau's op. Ill was a
magnificent achievement-late
Beethoven Of transcendentaI
eloquence.

Upholstery Class Has Final Meeting Tonight

The upholstery class being taught by Mrs. Jean Burand, Dis trict Home Demonstration Agent, and Mrs. Donald Lyle holds it's final meeting tonight. Some ex- ceptionally nice pieces have been completed at the Lutheran Church, where the sessions have been held.
 The home of MT. and Mrs. Fred Greene is blossoming with rich, chocolate brown frieze davenport, which matches exactly a daveno in the Dan Walsh home a few blocks away. The brown brocade daveno of the Bob HarWood's il- lustrates the influence of fabrics as their daveno has much the same lines as the Walsh furniture
 The Bill Ullrich family is justly proud of their pale green satin brocade sectional, which would blend nicely with the lovely deep brown sectional in the Barrow Morgan residence.
 Mrs. Don Perkins and Mrs. Bob Scott reclaimed a chair that had been in fire, and their work is most rewarding. From chars, to rich, hubby tweed, comfortable as well as luxurious - is delightful path to take. Mrs. Helen Eager strom restyled her chair in yellow and brown, a welcome for spring and a fitting setting for her sunny personality.
 The Amundsen's not only have a brilliant daughter, but also a new set of kitchen chairs, most expert ly "re-seated" by Mrs. Amundsen.
 The question heard most often is - when will we start next year? Can I do two pieces next time? What are you going to do?

Chenn in output per shift.
 The disinclination to accept fa- vors from foreigners is accounted for to some extent by the sheer unfamiliarity with foreigners. The traveller in China is soon aware that he is a rarity Once he goes more than ten yards from his hotel he is unlikely to see a Western face.
 He is stared at in frank curio- sity. If he stops to buy something he is immediately Wedged against the counter by curious crowd. They stare and often they laugh. The chances are they're not being rude by their lights. Laughter it. self can mean embarrassment. If you greet them with universal 'sNi Hao" - hello - they ni-hao back with enthusiasm and laugh even louder. On festive occasions, they are likely to fall back into orderly lines and applaud. The traveller claps back, Russian style.
 The crowds, though curious, are neither suspicious nor hostile These are our Western friends, they seem to say; if they were not our friends they would not have come to see us. Next: The Gap.

Two Swedes Complete
 Hop Over Polar Route

STOCKHOLM, Sweden R - Two Swedes returned to Stock holm early today from Anchorage, as the first pilots ever to cross the North Pole in a single-engine plane.
 The fliers, 45-year-old Stockholm businessman Sigurd Hallstroem and his pilot-flying navigator, Olof Ringstrand, 21, were in excel lent condition despite 30 hours in the air, starting from Anchorage Wednesday. Hallstroem owns the Piper Commanche plane.
 They crossed the North Pole last weekend flying from Stockholm via Bodoe in northern Norway to Anchorage, where Hallstroem had business appointments. On the re- turn trip they had to fly south of the Pole because of bad weather in the area.
 During the return flight they landed at the Canadian Weather Station "Isaksen" to get weather information because they had trouble with the radio contact. They also made refueling stop at Be- doe.
 "We indeed had a fine trip," Ringstrand said at the airport, ''sometimes we used the auto-pilot so we could read a little or take a nap"
 Ringstrand received tumutous welcome in January, 1862, when he flew the same single-engined plane from the United States to Europe, the youngest flier ever to make the solo flight.

Red China Report:
 CONTRASTS

Editors Note How do the Red Chinese look on Soviet Rus Sia in the midst of today's in tense theological split between
 the two countries? Here in the
 second of series of articles, is
 a report which provides some
 answers by a British author a
 who just toured Red China for
 three weeks.
 By RICHARD P. LISTER
 PEKING R-To go to China, you stop in Moscow on the way and again on the way back. It's a good chance to look at the Red giants, old and new.
 Every major city in China has it's Sino-Soviet Hall of Friendship. The halls remain, but where is the friendship? Ivan, carved in stone, stands shoulder to shoulder with Chang outside, but flesh-and- blood Ivan, if he is in China at all, is not readily to be seen.
 The Chinese look on Soviet Russia as a loved and respected teacher who has gone astray. They're sad about it but they're not going to budge an inch in their views. The Chinese simply know that they have the right answer.
 It is the Russians who erred.
 The difference in atmosphere between Moscow and Peking is sensed immediately. China is still in the first stages of it's revolu- ton. Everyone must have enough to eat and enough to wear, but there is little room for luxury.
 And yet, where Russia may often seem grim or hostile, China as often seems friendly and gay.
 Russia has transformed its drab scene with consumer goods in re- cent years. The contrast in China is striking. There are plenty of things in the Chinese shop win dows but the monotony is oppres- sive.
 In contrast to this austerity, the scene in Moscow looks more and more like the luxurious West. Is it the slackening of pure Com munist standards, or merely sign of the national character?
 There's another striking differ ence Chinese "face" seems more important than Russian "face." A Chinese waiter or porter will not accept a tip any more than a child a piece of candy. He is unwilling to consent to anything that puts him in an inferior position.
 In the West, the Smiths must keep up with the Joneses on motor cars, TV sets, washing machines; in China what worries Chang is that he may fall too far behind

DORIS FLEESON

Lyndon johnson aspired to
the Democratic nomination
for President in 1860 as the
Mr.. Can Do" of the United
States Senate. He does not
have much time to can do"
before the next Democratic
national convention meets.
Yet he has no choice but
to bring to bear his powerful
drive. his legislative skills
and his acute sense of the
uses of power upon the ur-
gent problem of impressing
the country. He will not be
free, as was the young John
Kennedy. to campaign inten-
sively while others are bear
ing the executive responsible
ity.
He Is the President and
charged with direction of
foreign policy. In this area
the watchers at the gates
can help much but other
heads of state are already
pressing for better acquaint-
ance. Besides world affairs
have their own great allure
and, the temptation is there
to lean back on peace and
prosperity"
Only short days ago, Presi-
dent Kennedy had a great
deal going for him besides
