By Werner By RICHARD WERNER The American Piano trio, in the persons of Naomi Weiss, Esther Fernandez and ' Stephen Kovacs, performed last night to what certainly' appeared to-be the full membership of Jackson County Civic Music association. Opening the program with the first movement of Bach's "Con certo in D Minor," for three harpsichords, it exemplified, as the program noted "his sterness of character." The key of D minor is also imposing and stern. Bach, a genius of the first rank, made his living as a prac ticing musician ' and composed much music on order. Not all of it is inspired, he having too often to draw on his tremendous tech nical' knowledge to get the job done. As a consequence some of his music sounds to many people as dry, which it is. But he couldn't take time to wait for in spiration with 15 children to sup port.N .. . ..' Rare Gem Mozart's rondo from the ser enade, "Eine kleine Nachtmusik" is one of his rare gems. The arrangement played last night was well done and. admirably played but three pianos can never equal the delicacy of four stringed instruments played with the bow. , - The Spanish dance in A minor, 13) $"5149 II Sq. Yard Reg. $1.89 Sq. Yd. GREEN STAMPS V' i THE ONE'- I from "La Vida Breve" came off better, the percussion of the I pianos being better suited to this type of music. We were disappointed by the "Largo al Factotum", from "The Barber of Seville," by ' Rossini, the vocal part being most ob scured. We would like to hear Mr. Kovacs' arrangement of the same composer's overture to this opera or the one to "Halians in Algiers." Those we are sure would be delightfully brilliant. Wagner's overture to "Tann hauser" failed to come off. When all is said and done, even such a master arranger as Kovacs can't make three pianos sound approximately near to a sym phony orchestra. Even with his own singing tone he could not lift the Pilgrim's chorus theme away from the hammers. And Wagner's scintillating colors were entirely absent. But it was a good try and the audience en joyed the worth of the' musical content. ' Solo Playing .The second part of the pro gram was devoted to solo play ing, an astute departure. All three artists displayed their fine abilities. Miss Weiss possesses a delightful delicacy wherea Jliss Fernandez has more warmth and authority. But the real pianist is Kovacs. To him technique is not an end. He has all any pianist needs but he uses it to, further the ends of the music and the composer. And he does so much with so little effort. -Really a master of his instrument. The third section of the pro gram was designed to please the audience. After impressing the auditors with their fine capaT bilities, they proceeded to enter tain and did so : handsomely. Kovacs can build a program and also project it. The time , for playing to the gallery had come and he did so with zest. May he bring his trio with him again soon. Osteopathic Has 900 Patients During 1955 Medford Osteopathic -, hospital registered nearly 900 patients, hot including laboratory or out patients, during 1955. The actual number registered for the 17-bed institution was 880 patients. Of these, 282 were medical cases, 334 were s,urgical, and 125 were obstetrical. There were 126 babies born at the hos pital, including one set of twins. . Except stillborn and pre mature babies, there were no deaths reported of patients under 52 years of age. Benson Decides To Sign Own Letters Washington (U.R) Secretary of Agriculture Ezra T. Benson, because of bitter . personal ex perience, has decided that from now on he'll sign all letters bearing his name. Until recently. Miller F. Shurt leff, an aide in Benson's office, had been signing the secretary's name to routine letters of acknowledgement. But agriculture officials said yesterday an order was issued earlier this week asking that routine letters be written in such a way that they can be signed by Benson's subordinates in their own names. Benson will sign himself letters on which he wants to use his own name. Road Crews Repair Rain Damage To City Streets City road crews began repairs yesterday of rain damage on Sixth st., as part of patching work which has been underway for several weeks on city streets. Sixth st. probably will be resur faced this summer, officials stated. The city also has started the annual series of traffic checks which are made to study traffic and determine volume trends, density and other information. Hughes Acquitted In Federal Court On Perjury Counts, New York (U.R) A federal court jury acquitted Paul H. Hughes early today on two counts of perjury that charged he lied before a grand jury about the activities of prominent Dem ocrats. . The jury could not reach a de cision on four other perjury counts against Hughes, but the prosecutor said the government would not ask for a retrial. Hughes admitted that he fab ricated a story he told the. Demo cratic officials about being a dis gruntled investigator for Sen. Joseph McCarthy. He said after hearing .: the verdict that he would "look up" McCarthy and apologize for "any trouble and embarrassment I have caused." Hughes, a 36-year-old Air Force veteran, said most of his tales about illegal activities on the part of the McCarthy investi gating subcommittee, were false but maintained he told the grand jury the truth. Charge of Lying " , He was acquitted on a .charge that he lied in saying he heard Attorney Telford Taylor and Joseph L. Rauh, national chair man of Americans for Democra tic Action, discussing plans to aid recanting anti-Communist Harvey Matusow. : The other count on which Hughes . was acquitted charged that he lied when he told the grand jury that he once heard Rauh and Alfred Friendly, man aging editor , of the Washington Post and Times Herald, discuss ing "coordination" between Mat usow and James Wechsler, edi tor of the New York Post.. The grand jury was investi gating the activities of Matusow, who testified for the government at the trial of Communist lead ers but later recanted his testi mony. The jury at Hughes' trial took 11 hours and-15 minutes to ar rive at a decision on the two counts. Wickard Says Benson Should Check Returns Hartford City, Ind. (U.R) Agriculture Secretary Ezra T. Benson could learn a lot by look ing at some farmers' income tax returns, according to one of Ben son's predecessors. Claude R. Wickard, secretary in' the"1940s and now a Demo cratic candidate for nomination to the U.S. Senate, said the tax returns would show Benson that "few farmers had any net in come last year and many are showing a loss." The returns, Wickard told a party meeting last night, refute Benson's claim that the indivi dual - farmer's " income has de clined, very little. - "I have talked to several peo ple who help farmers make out their income tax Teports," Wick ard said. "They say what you and I know to be true few farmers had any net income last year and many are showing a loss. - "I would like to suggest to Benson that he take time to read the results of the farmers' in come tax returns before con tinuing to make statements that the individual farmer's income hasn't gone down much."
