Excursion Boat
Stop Proposed
In Alexandra

Alexandria once more may
become q port Of call for Po-
tomac River excursion boats
this fall If plans by city off,
cials work out.
Charles B. Deggs, director of
the Alexandria Tourist Council,
said today he is calling a meet
ing Of interested persons on
August 16 to discuss the plans.
The topic of discussion will
be the feasibility Of asking the
Government for permission to
use the docks behind the two
FEDERAL Records buildings for
the Wilson Lines excursion
boats.
Among those to be invited are
Joseph I. Goldstein, president
Of Wilson Lines; Representa-
tive Broyhill, Republican Of
Virginia; Alexandria City Man.
ager Albert M. Hair. jr., and
Chisman Hanes, chairman of
the Alexandria Port Develop
ment Committee.
Alexandria has not been q
regular stop for excursion boats
since the Norfolk Washington
Line docked there about 10
years ago. The Washington
Baltimore Line used an Alex
Andria dock until about 80
years ago.
The Wilson Line never has
made Alexandria a regular stop,
but one of its special charter
boats occasionally has locked
behind one of the Federal Rec
ords buildings.
II the city succeeds in getting
Federal permission, the Alex
Andria docks could be a regular
stopping point for the Marshall
Hall or the Mount Vernon ex-
cursion or both, he said.
The records buildings are
scheduled to be evacuated In
about three years, but Mr..
Deggs said that with Federal
permission the trips could start
next fall.

Shift Urged
In School
reutment

BALTIMORE, Aug. 7 (AP)-I
A National Urban League off,
cial said yesterday preferential
treatment in public schools
should be given to Negro and
slum children.
Otis E. Finley, associate d.
rector for education and youth
incentives for the Urban League
said white citizens have re-
ceived preferential treatment
for more than 800 years and
that Negroes should now re-
ceive the special treatment.
Mr.. Finley was a speaker at
a meeting Of school superin-
tendents, indignation leaders
and Federal officials who are
participating in a three-day
conference sponsored by the
Ford Foundation to discuss
school desegregation.
He expressed his views to
newsmen In advance Of yester-
days session. The meeting Is
closed TO the press.
THE Stun schools ought TO be
Just as good If not better than
the suburban schools" Mr.. Fin
ley said.
Instead, they are woefully
inadequate. The education sys-
TEN has been too long geared
to the middle class"
Mr.. Finley suggested a mas
sive Marshall Plan effort to
improve the quality Of our ed
ucation, especially for the dis
advantaged."
He said the intercultural ex-
periences would benefit both
white and Negro children.
Miss June Shagaloff, Of the
National Association for the Ad-
vancement OF Colored People,
said I'VE will intensity our pro-
test demonstrations and per-
haps file lawsuits unless affirm
alive policie TO end desegrega-
ton are adopted.

Court Asked
To Dismiss
Kern Protest

Arlington County has moved
to dismiss an apartment de-
veloper's legal challenge Of the
County Boards authority to
block high-rise apartments on
the Kern tract near Seven Cor
ners.
Seth Horne, Of Phoenix, Ariz.,
the developer, filed q petition
In Arlington Circuit Court July
IL for an injunction that would
have the effect Of forcing the
board to approve his rezoning
application.
On behalf Of the board, Com
monwealth's Attorney William
]. Hassan filed papers Monday
asking the court to dismiss the
Injunction plea on grounds
Mr.. Horne has neither legal
nor equitable title to the prop
erty."
The Arizona developer holds
options on the 23-acre tract
now owned by Mrs. Ann Lee
Kern. He sought board approx
al in June to build 12-story
apartment buildings on the
tract at a cost of $14 million.
The Commemorative Attor-
ney sought to have the court
strike Mr.. Horne's contention
that the County Board exceeded
its constitutional authority by
considering attractive planning
goals instead of protection OF
the public welfare in the zon-
ing decision.
The apartment proposal
aroused considerable opposition
from county citizens, as well as
from the county manager
planning commission and PLAN
ming staff.

Of the art OF Pablo Picasso.
This truth OF our time may
be tested and enjoyed right
now at the Jewish Commu-
nifty Center. where a repre-
sentative selection Of his
prints is on view.
The show at the center has
26 etchings, woodcuts and
Autographs from the National
Gallery's Lessing j. Rosen-
wald Collection. selected by
Curator Elizabeth Mongan TO
cover the career from 1905
through l947.
There is what Stuart Davis
once called an amazing con-
tinuity" In the work thus
spread over four decades.
Among other things. the show
demonstrates very vividly
that, for all his Great Divide
kind Of innovations, Picasso
has never really been an "in-
novator" In the sense the
term has lately acquired. He
concerned himself only very
briefly with technical change
as a thing fascinated in it.

Adams. He has some spirit
ually accurate water colors
Of bright air and bright water
along the Maine coast. The
larger works, in oil, trans
late nature observed into
simplified planes in muted
colors. Several pictures Of the
look of things at Great Falls
are especially effective. The
outstanding work and the one
that shows the most promise
of what Mr.. McAdams may
become is called THE Month
of March" and traces the
slow coming of color to the
world across cloud-dappled
fields to infinity.

Corcorun

Elsewhere in the Corcoran
is the latest one-man show
for a Washington area artist.
Clare Ferriter.
Mrs. Ferriter, represented
locally in the Artists Mart,
has developed an abstract
idiom of her own which lends
itself TO collage as readily as
to her carefully painted but
spontaneous appearing oil
paintings. A major preoccu-
patton. as II must be for all
OF us, has been the turn Of
the seasons and Mrs. Ferriter
does very evocative things
with color and light 10 sug-
gest autumn and the rest.
Stronger than the seasons
IN her work Is a series Of
Warrior" paintings. I'm which
archaic soldiers, equipped
with shields and spears, are
seen dimly and variously in
ranks, in combat and In chaos.
Impressive individually, the
pictures are even more so in
sequence.

Jefferson Place

The jefferson Place
Gallery has produced yet an
other variant of the artist
obSesSed with a rather simple
minded theme. The artist is
Washington's E. r. Rankine
and the theme is the oval,
painted big, usually slightly
squashed and always in the
company Of one, two or three
fellow ovals. If you need
two or three ovals in a
vertical row, this is the place
to get them. One note of
caution: Last year the New
York Times, as quoted by the
gallery, opined that there was
a tension created between
the shapes" and that they
were painted in "caressingly
sensuous ways" the Times
has had to suspend publica-
ton.

B'nui Birth

The paintings Of the late
Lisa Shapiro are on view at

worked in the tradition of
social protest, but the protest
was a general one, directed
against mechanization, the
urban jungle, the impersonal
style of modern work and
life, She remained more a
draughtsman than a painter
and is often very moving,
occasionally suggesting Rou-
ault and Kollwitz.

jean COCJedu, playWTlBnI,
film producer, poet. painter,
parsonage and official i'm
mortal, has for decades been
a Golden Child for whom
nothing could go wrong,
whose every touch was magic.
Like many a lesser man. he
reached the end Of his luck
in Washington.
In connection with the
American premiere Of his
"Orpheus," a theme Cocteau
has worked and reworked
many times, the Frenchman
assented to an exhibition of
drawings on the theme. The
Institute Of Contemporary
Arts undertook to sponsor the
show, which includes 46 draw
ings. some Of them created
especially for the exhibition.
Bad luck plagued the project.
In the first place, the ICA's
hopeful exhibition space Of
last year has not panned out.
Installed in the Corcoran. the
show was put off because Of
the Mona-mania sweeping
town when 1t was supposed
to open. When it did open
1t got lost in the shuttle Of
the biennial in the same
building. And now the worst
has happened. The show is
in the same town at the same
time with an exhibition Of
Picasso prints. The drawings
demonstrate anew that what
ever Cocteau has as a
draughtsman, he got from
Picasso, but. helas, he never
took quite enough.

PennelPS Own
Almost 100 prints give a
generous look at Pennell's
own work and at what was
being done by others as he
grew to manhood and
throughout his life. Winslow
Homer is the biggest of the
early names and his three
etchings are powerful but
technically limited. The
whole effort was clearly to
mass produce the subjects of
Homer paintings, most no.

sensitive etching drypoints
of the Isle Of Man take on
an air Of mystery and sad
ness that can only come from
the line itself.
Things get jolly with the
Eight" and the junior part
ner who made them nine,
George Bellows. There's a
breezy John Sloan saloon in
terror and a Bellows litho-
graph Of swimming in the
East River that relates close
ly to the Corcoran's exuber-
ant "42 Kids"
Americans Abroad
The general field Of Amer
leans abroad is represented
by practically everyone IN
the show. For reasons still
not understood and perhaps
related to the run of salmon
up the Columbia River, all
printmakers manage to get
to Venice and to belt out q
few etchings. The Venice
prints on view are immense
ly varied and are enough to
convince any printmaker that
there's a gondola in his fu-
ture.
More particularly, the show
has fine prints by Mary Cas-
satt-Philadelphia to Paris
and James Whistler-West
Point to London. Cassatt's
prints are not invariably per-
feet, but these include a dry
point of a pair of girls study
ing that precisely moves the
celebrated CaSsatt tenderness
from color to line. Whistler
has a sensitive portrait. some
first rate views of low-life
along the Thames and one Of
his little jewels Of tone, a
water-music "Nocturne."
Scenes of Power
Pennell was devoted to
Whistler and apparently
thought Of himself as follow
ing the masters steps. Almost
no connection is visible in
the show except a shared SER
iousness about prints and a
belief in their potential.
Whistler called himself the
Butterfly; Pennell aspired
more to be an eagle. He was
drawn to power, whether that
Of nature or that Of man in
struggle with nature. He has
some nice, quiet views of the
city, but he is at his best
in scenes Of power: The build
ing of the Panama Canal,
the bridges over the East
River. or the Grand Canyon.
Joseph Pennell, as far as
we can see now, was not a
print master, though he would
have given more than the
fortune he did give to be-
come one. But 1t is good to
see his personal contribution
in the company Of his peers
whose profession he has en-
hanced.
