(The show was seen here,
WTTG-5, on Wednesday,
. Nothing in next seasons
network schedules-which are
regarded as promising by many
has anything even remotely
resembling a series Of this type.
Wouldn't it be wonderful
(please) If Standard Oil could

o That the concluding show
(which will be repeated Sun

of some pride to WTOP locally,

who is now with ABC. and the
Catholic University players

The same bright imagination
that went into one was in the
other.
The WTOP essay. in fact,
could have served as a prelude
to the Festival since the selec-
tions were more general and
Michael Langham, the artistic
director of the Canadian en-
semble, was interested in the
Bard in his light-hearted atti-
tudes toward love. (The WTOP
show, for example, included a
deep and lovely scene in Julius
Caesar" between Brutus and his
wife,

more distracting than I
thought I would. But no mat
ter. The words were wonderful
and the ensemble acting first
rate.
Note: The Festival received
it's happiest accolade from the
White House yesterday. Mrs.
Kennedy is sponsoring a Spe-
cial presentation of the major
part of three Festival shows "a
total of 80 minuteS) at the
Watergate on June II for high
school, college and graduate
students in the Washington
area.
OF the three programs choS-
en-, two were from last seasons
list: the poetry and drama
readings by actor Paul Scofield
and his wife, Joy Parker and
the show featuring Pablo Cas-
ais with Alexander Schneider
and Mieczyslaw Horszowski.
This seasons entry is the open
ing concert by Yehudi Menuhin
and his sister. Hepzibah.
My favorite this season. in

lowed by Joyce Grenfell's. Zero
Mostel's was the most disap-
pointing.

not let the plants sit in saucers

The pruning Of both shrubs
and trees should be well along,
although the weather has not
been too favorable for out-of-
door work so far. The pruning
Of roses might well wait for
another week or two-we do
have severe freezes late in the
spring in this area-and the
bushes might be frozen back a
bit further than we like if
pruned too early.

Save Young Tree
From Bark Split

Many young trees with tender
bark suffer from sudden
changes Of temperatures. When
q nice mild day comes along
after q spell Of very cold wealth
er, the sun hitting the trunk Of
q young tree may thaw out and
expand faster the inner bark
and the tension between the two
may cause o split in the bark.
This provides an opening for
insects and disease organisms
and threatens the health Of
the tree.
This condition may not be
noticeable until the spring and
summer when the homeowner
will suddenly notice that his
prize young tree Is beginning TO
look sickly and Is not putting
out the new leaves 1t
should.
One method TO prevent SUI
scald or splitting Of the bark Is
TO wrap the trunk Of the tree
with burlap or heavy paper.
This helps to provide a more
uniform temperature and more
gradual warming UP Of the In
nef and outer bark.

Waters and the Florida palm
garden with its alligator. And,
of course, there will be other
SO styles or versions such as the
rose gardens and the camellia
display garden. And there will
be lots Of new things for the
gardener to see.
One Of the highlights Of the
show will be q bed of forced
lilies - mid-century hybrids.
Last year a few were tried out
experimentally and they
worked. This year there will
be a big bed Of them.
This year there will be a
camellia show in the Armory.
Saturday and Sunday, the Ca
mellia Society Of the Potomac
