WERNER Last night's concert by the Vienna Choir boys demonstrated decisively that there need be no equivocation with mediocrity when children come to grips Margaret Sits Out Dances at Jamaica Kingston, Jamaica U.R) Princess Margaret, wearing a strapless gown of pink silk tulle and satin, sat out every dance at an open air ball here last night. She left the party at midnight without having danced even once. The woman's Sunday-Mirror, a London tabloid newspaper, raised the question over the weekend of whether Margaret's necklines have plunged too low during her current Caribbean tour. Another problem, apparently, has been management . of her flaring skirts in the Caribbean trade winds. Today Lord Beaverbrook's Daily Express printed a photograph taken at Bridgetown, Barbados, showing Margaret's skirt flared like a parachute and whipped up high behind. She is shown standing on a dias reviewing marching troops. Behind her mounted officers in starched uniforms sit ramrod stiff. Rescuers Return In Search For Bodies Albuquerque, N. M. . (U.P.)

So often' one hears of chil dren's musical performances "It was . good for little ones" or "junior high students" or even "high school students" . . . or what have you. This is a fallacy which we hope will soon be laid to rest with so many others. Performed With Honor With a tradition of nearly 500 years behind them, a tradition based on perfection, the boys performed with honor. The Eu ropeans definitely have some thing Americans lack when it comes to the arts. The precision, discipline, attack and release, perfect entrances, ability to fol low a director's beat of time instead of syllables of - words and instant response to nuance were of delight. And all this requires much attention to de tail and hours of practice. - Of course, these boys do not have to go to school while in the choir, but after their voices change at about the age of 13 or so they are given a formal education and preparation, whenever possible, for " their chosen place in life. At a recent reunion of former choir boys, 37 of those attending held doctor's degrees. ' . The serious study of music de velops an exactitude of mind and self discipline that prepares one for a life of honest conscien tious endeavor that recognizes authority and its need and place in the scheme of life. It also develops personality and throt tles that great inhibitor "con formity." Songs Beautifully Done As was expected of a choir organized to "participate in the performance of religious music in the court chapel," the first group of songs was of that na ture. All beautifully done with that white, all-overtone quality typical of the untrained imma ture voice. Wisely these were followed by a short, light opera in one act titled "Schubert's Practical Jokes" with an amusing plot of impersonations arranged by Franz Krieg in which music by Schubert -was used. The boys demonstrated some rather good histrionic ability and it was good entertainment. The concert closed . with a group of songs allowing .. for seme individual solos, all very nice. There were several en cores, an especially fetching one being the musical recitation, in German, of the alphabet direct ed by the smallest member of the choir." Director Gerhard Track is to ba applauded for his expert han dling of the boys and consider ate use of tempi. - All in all, a ically "pleasurable" evening. LV.POKTIAND A.
