Unusual Glass Harmonica
To Be Played in
Commemorating this year's
250th anniversary of the birth
of Benjamin Franklin and the
200th anniversary of Wolfgang
Amadeus Mozart's birth, organist
E. Power Biggs will play a Mo
zart composition for the glass
harmonica invented by Franklin,
on the KYJC-CBS Radio broad
cast of the New York Philharmonic-Symphony,
Sunday, April
8 at 11:30-1:00 p.m .
The Franklin musical har
monica, invented nearly two
centuries ago, is based on the old
trick of touching the edge of a
glass with a dampened finger to
produce a musical note. Frank
lin's instrument lined up glass
bowls so that several notes could
be played simultaneously by use
of a horizontal spindle. Mozart,
in the last year of his life, wrote
a Quintet for glass harmonica,
flute, oboe, violin and cello.
Mr. Briggs will use a modern
glass harmonica made by the
Corning Glass company. The
instrument consists of 37 indi
vidually blown bowls, nested
within each other' on a spindle.
Padded keys touehing the mois
tened edges of the revolving
bowls produce tones that Frank
lin termed "incomparably sweet
beyond those of any other."
The crystal bowls, spanning
three octaves from F below mid
dle C to F above high C, were

Has Advice
in Same Spot
himself for a few minutes to
give some comments about the
uproar over the marriage of his
daughter, Grace, . to Monaco's
Prince Rainier.
"Well, as a matter of fact," he
said, "I don't like weddings. I
don't know exactly why, but I
just don't like funerals or. wed
dings. "And," he said, with a grin,
"this is certainly no ordinary
wedding."
Mr. Kelly already has walked
down the aisle with his two oth
er daughters, Peggy and Liz
Ann, and he said he had worked
out a formula.
"I just tell them, 'Look, I'll
give you this kind of wedding,'
and then I let them make all the
plans from there. But I must ad
mit I don't think anybody could
be in training for a wedding
like this one."
Mr. Kelly likes' his son-in-law
to be and believes the marriage
will be a happy one.
"There's one thing you can
say about Grace," he said proud
ly. "When she makes friends
she keeps them. I've only given
her one bit of fatherly advice
on her future as a princess. I
just tell her to be herself."
He explained why the Kellys
agreed so readily to have the
wedding in Monaco, although a
girl traditionally is married in
her own home town
Call Out Police
"Her mother didn't know
where to begin planning this
wedding," he said. "When Liz
Ann got married and Grace was
a bridesmaid they had to call out
the police to hold back the
crowds. We found out then what
it means to have a celebrity in
the family. And as long as
Grace was going to live in Mo
naco we decided it would be all
right to let them have the wed
ding."
The former bricklayer, who
is head of the commission run
ning Philadelphia's Fairmount
park, 10 times the size of Mona
co, joked that he was polishing
up his continental manners but
otherwise was keeping in the
background.
"Turn it all over to your
wife," he said. "Stay out of the
way as much as possible. Don't
have anything to do with select
ing the clothes and do exactly
as you're told."

Coming Marriage of Grace
Target of Ribbing by London Newspapers
London (U.R) Old Europe
finds it so hard to believe a royal
marriage can be a genuine love
affair that it is giving the wed
ding of Grace Kelly and Prince
Rainier a not-so-gentle ribbing.
Or maybe that's not the rea
son. After all, the British like to
think of the union of their Eliza
beth and Philip as true love.

quizmaster on a London radio
show.
Three of the panelists said
they wouldn't bother to go. The
fourth scolded Grace and Rain
ier for all the ballyhoo. The fifth
said acidly!
"Would it be impolite to sug
gest a cradle?"
The theme that Monaco1 is less
interested in the bride than the
heir the bride must produce to
keep it a tax-free monarchy is
frequently mentioned. But even
in Britain the first duty of any
ruler, male or female, is to insure
succession to the throne.
The London Sunday newspap
er, The People, complained that
although the British people
"don't care a hoot" about the
romance, the BBC is going to
give it six hours of television
time.
"Measured by the fuss that is
being made, it might be that
Eisenhower's son is marrying
Malenkov's daughter," the Peo
ple said, adding that newspapers
should take a lead from the
queen who "politely declined to
ask one of the royal family to
attend the wedding." j
No Cause To Complain
"That has upset Prince Rain
ier," it said. "Still, he has no
cause to complain. He is certain
of millions worth of free public
ity for Monaco that should bring
visitors flocking to restore the
dwindling finances of his comic
opera kingdom'
London's Socialist Daily Her
ald printed an article implying
that the council of Monaco
wouldn't let Rainier marry love
ly French actress Gisele Pascal
because her father was a veg
etable merchant in Cannes, a
few miles away. But, it added,
although Miss Kelly's father
started life as a bricklayer, "that
was forgotten when his wealth
was remembered."
One fact helping the critics
along is the inability if that is
the word of Europe's crowned
heads to attend this marriage.
Taking their cue from these
leaders, any- number of notables
will not be among those in the
principality for the ceremonies.
