BY ALENE (PEG) PHILLIPS
row, as are Mr. and Mrs. Dean Pape and
Mr. and Mrs. Ehrman Glustina. all of Fu
gene. The latter four have been in New
York for the convention of the Association of
Equipment Dealers, and Mr. Riggs is here for
the annual meeting of the American Phar
maceutical Association. So goes the roll
call from home.
A special treat this week was the concert
of Anna Russell, Canadian singer, trained in
the Royal College of Music in London, who
has put her excellent voice and lively per
sonality to use as a comedienne nf song. Her
interpretations of the mannerisms nf other
concert singers, whether French. Spanish,
British or German, were devastating. One
wondered how other singers must feel about
her humorous .satire of their typical pro
grams. The "music appreciation" number
was a recounting of "The Ring of the Nihe
lungs" and she told the story of the Wag
nerian opera nnd sang the briefest of lines
to illustrate the development of the plot.
Huge Constitution Hall was packed and the
place echoed and reechoed with laughter
from beginning to end of her program.
The T. S. Eliot comedy. "The Confidential
Clerk." evoked the usual mixed reactions of
an Eliot play, but with Ina Claire, Claude
Rains, Aline MacMnhon, and the clever young
English actress, Joan Greenwood, it was
beautifully done and as far as I was con
cerned, a most worthwhile evening. Particu
larly appreciated was Ina Claire, after her
seven-year retirement from the stage.
In addition to the concert, the play, and
the Turkish luncheon, I managed to includo
an Alpha Phi buffet, a dinner of a federal
personnel management organization, a busi
ness dinner, meeting of the American News
paper Women's Cluh, and an evening of
dinner dancing at the Shnreham with Ore
gonians, which certainly rounded out the
week with considerable variety, to put it
mildly And it has been wonderful weather,
too, I must report, as your Washington cor
respondent. PEG,
