The concert will be at Med ford Senior high school, with piano, violin, cello and clarin et, they can present music writ ten for any one of fifteen dif ferent instrumentations: four different solo instruments, six duo combinations, four trids, and the quartet. Their program will feature music of well-known composers, from Corelli, Handel and Mozart to Beethoven," Rav el, Brahms, or Alec Templeton. The leader of this unique group is the vigorous and attrac tive Britisher, Reginald Kell, known here and abroad as the world's greatest living clarin etist. Mr. Kell started his career with violin lessons at the age of seven. He abandoned the violin, however, as a darned uncom fortable instrument to play," and at fourteen quit schoojl to work as a machinist making dust guards for train axles. "I felt there must be an easier way of making a living," he says, "so I took up the clarinet." By ELIZABETH TOOMEY United Press Correspondent New York U.R)-!- Only two thirds of the American women are willing to work hard to be beautiful, a. renowned authority said today. The rest may make frequent investments in self improve ment courses and beauty prod uces, but they neglect the daily upkeep. These are- harsh words, but they come from one of the most successful business . women in the world, who has made beauty her career and frankness a fa mous characteristic. "Women waste their money if they 'don't follow up special beauty treatments with daily care," Elizabeth Arden said. "It takes a stick-to-it quality to be beautifuL. I would say that only two-thirds of the 'American women are willing to work hard at it." Office Unexpectedly Small Miss Arden was - interviewed in her office, a narrow, green painted cubicle startingly un like the carpeted elegance visi tors expect to find. One wall was covered with photographs of race horses. The opposite wall was lined with sedate flower prints, and the desk was litter ed wtih lipstick tubes, new cos metic samples and stacks of business documents. ' "I'm not here very much, so I've just never bothered to fix up my office," Miss Arden ex plained. She is not in her office, her employees explain admiringly, because she insists on personal ly looking in on all departments of her vast beauty empire, which she built in the past 40 years from a few jars of cold cream, an idea and a loan of $3,000. She also likes to supervise the training of her race horses. She is likely to visit her sta bles at Belmont race track be fore breakfast in the morning, and whip up a new lipstick shade in her laboratory before noon. Under the name Mrs. Elizabeth Graham, the beauty expert owns the Maine Chance racing stables. She is an exact ing employer in her Fifth ave nue business office and a senti mental stable owner who calls her horses "my darlings." Should Look Natural . - ''It is much better to look na tural, whatever you. do," Miss Arden said, discussing the prog ress women have made in recent years in retaining youthful faces and figures. "But you . must spend some time on yourself each day. Some women think if they keep their bodies slender, that's enough. It isn't." At an age generally estimated past 70 years, Miss Arden for tunately is an excellent exam ple of her teachings. She looks at least 20 years younger. Her formula, she says, is 10 minutes of exercise each morn ing, 10 minutes devoted to her face each morning, including applying makeup, and removing makeup and applying proper creams each night before retir. tag. "And I've learned how to re lax," she added. "I average only about six hours sleep each night. But I have learned to drop off to sleep when I can during the day, even if it's only for 10 min utes in the tax." . STRONG THIEF SOUGHT : Omaha, Neb - (U.R) Police are searching today for a burg lar who knows his own strength. They, said the thief stole 200 pounds of brass and 300 pounds of copper from the Aaron Fer er and Sons Co., and a three- quarter ton air conditioner from the front porch of W.-.R. How ard. - Monday, Norembcr 29, 1954 and Clubs Some time later he became first clarinetist with Sir 'Thom as Beecham and the London Philharmonic orchestra, played under Toscanini in Switzerland, became distinguished as soloist with such major chamber groups as the Lener, Albeneri, and Fine Arts Quartets. At twenty-five he became a teacner, and later a fellow, at the Royal Academy of Music. "This was a fate," he says modestly, "which I thought reserved for only respectable musicians like an organist at St. Paul's Cathedral." ' New York music critics voted Mr. Kell's recording of the Moz art Clarinet quintet with the London Philharmonic quartet as the best chamber record ,of the year. The New York Times has commented, "Kell must be reck oned among the great Mozart interpreters of the time on any instrument." Since his American debut in 1948, Mr. Kell has become in creasingly enthusiastic about audiences in the United States and Canada, and has applied for American citizenship. "W hat the jazz boys have done with clarinet in the United States is colossal," he says. "They've made Americans clarinet-conscious." Many jazz players, in cluding the great Benny, Good man, for whom Kell has. high admiration, have taken lessons of Mr. Kell for improving their technique with the classics. . Associated with Mr. Kell are Joan Rowland,, Canadian pianist, Melvin Ritter, violinst, and Aaron Shapinsky, cellist. : Miss Rowland has 'been appearing with symphony orchestras as so loist since she was nine, and toured two seasons throughout Canada and the United States with the Columbia Canadian trio. She has also given recitals in many places including New York s Town hall, where her re cent performance was critically appraised as "remarkable for re finement and sensitivity," "ex quisitely performed," and "ex tremely musical." Melvin Ritter, who made his debut at fifteen as soloist with the Cleveland Civic orchestra, toured Europe for 18 months, with -a Special Service entertain ment unit in the U. S. Army, and has appeared: as sploist in the National Gallery, : the New York's Town hall and alsewhere. His rare violin was made - by Nicolo Gagliano of . Naples in 1772, maker of the violin with which Kreisler first established his concert career. This is Mr. Ritter's third season with the Kell Players. Aaron Shapinsky comes from a family of painters and musi cians, and plays a Guadagnini cello of 1734, a fine instrument which has been in the Shapinsky family for three "generations. Mr. Shapinsky has appeared with orchestras and I chamber groups from New York to Pitts burgh, New Oreleans to Dallas.
