Few people who live here are
aware of it, but everything of
consequence that happens in
their little hamlet is watched
and tabulated thousands of
miles away in clasSrooms
at the University of Massachu-
sets.
Students and professors at the
University know which families
own television sets, which ones
farm and which own shops, how
much money is in the local
banks and what the mayor is
planning to do next week.
Stefanaconi is a village Of
less than $500 population down
south near the toe of the Ital-
ian boot. 1t is one of many
places in the south that have
been losing population in recent
years and that, for more than
one reason, is why it is getting
so much attention in MaSsachu-
sets.
Among those who left here
were a couple named Loprea-
to, whose 15-year-old son Joseph
grew up to be a sociology pro-
lessor at the University of
Massachusetts. After coming
back here on a vacation one
year, he selected Stefanaconi as
a typical town for studying I'm
derdevelopment in the Mediter-
ranean area.
Plays Cards
When he comes here now, he.
spends long hours playing cards
with the villagers, talking with
childhood friends, walking
about the village and question
ing farmhands. They all think
he's just seeking diversion from
the cares Of a PROFESSIONAL life.
But Lopreato is gathering re-
search material on his home
town and he already has pub
lished a number of articles
about it in sociological journals.
Stefanaconi has been undergo
ing some import changes since
Lopreato began studying it.

The world mourned President
Kennedy Monday, expressing its
grief in many different Ian

munist China treated his death
with Scorn.
The leaders and the people of
nations on both sides Of the
Iron Curtain joined in spirit
with Americans to honor the
President. From snowy Moscow
to the heat of Africa, prayers
were said, eulogies delivered,
and tears shed.
But Communist China did not
let up in its attacks on Ken

funeral. 1t called him a war
monger and said the same Of
his successor, President John

in honor bound to await the
opening the producer names as
the formal one, even though no
special price concession is made
for the warm-up performances.
This, incidentally, varies. In
the case Of who's Afraid Of
Virginia Woolf?" 1t had three
weeks Of previews at q scale of
50 and SO. On the other hand,
Strange Interlude," the first
play production by Actors
Studio, went standard scale
from the first preview. Both
did well at the boxoffice, well
enough to encourage producers
to think seriously Of extending
the practice.
NOW, TAKE HOT SPOT:
The probable all-time paid pre-
view champion has been estab-
liShed during the current sea-
son. This one is "Hot Spot"
which spent weeks and weeks
on the road and finally crept
into New York in a still unfin-
ished, more accurately "un-
ready" state. BY the time it
opens formally next Friday
night, 1t will have had SO paid
New York previews.
The musical starring Judy
Holiday will be remembered as
having started in Washington.
Apparently since its opening
here, everything has been
changed except the title and
Miss Holiday.
The changes have not been
sufficient to give the heads of
the project complete confid-
ence. This is reflected in their
intention to open on a Friday
night, known in the trade as
the canniest night in the week
in that it sets the reviews for
Saturdays papers when every
one Is assumed to be out of
town.
The musicals experience,
when the final reports are in,
could have a profound influ-
ence upon the extention, or
otherwise, Of the paid preview
practice.

of play and musical produc-
tions. Mr.. Taubman was writ
ing like a critic who welcomed
a chance to be objective about
something. AS between OPEN
ings in town and out, he did
not take sides. He merely re-
ported that in-town seemed to
be winning at present.
Whether the situation con-
tinued, Mr.. Taubman did not
have to care; one OF jour-
nalism's rare but happiest mo-
ments.
A Washingtonian, anxious
for his city's cultural future,
finished the piece with a feel
ing that he didn't have to
worry either. Nor, he concluded,
do those other historic CEN
ters of excellent taste, Boston
and Philadelphia.
All three are close enough to

that they will continue to get
pre- Broadway exhibits. There
may not be as many Of these,
vet who is to say this represents
a loss, say "West Side Story"
or a gain, say Natural Affec-
tion," to Washingtonians.
Indeed, as compared with
Boston and Philadelphia,
Washington is in the safest po-
sition. With but one full-size
retail outlet for the product OF
Broadway's creative minds, the
National theater. at least the
fret of competition is comfort
ingly diminished.
Another thing in Washing
tons favor, If that is the word,
in the prospective increase in
stay-at-home previews is the
type of memory common
among producers. They may
forget the name Of the actor
who worked for them yesterday
but they will remember the
profits they made years and
years ago on Washington open
ings.
This year, for instance, there
was Beyond the Fringe" a
sell-out from the day the re-
views appeared. And, down
through time, what money was
made and excitement created
by "West Side Story" Tea and
Sympathy" Carnival" and so
many others. There have been
enough Of these to create a
superstition in certain producer
type minds that it is defying
fate to open anywhere but
Washington.

Broadway phenomenon. 1t Il
