Brazilian Composer Says He Writes Only for Intellectuals Bv PAUL MOCSANYI United Press Correspondent New York (U.PJ "The peo ple? The people?" The vnirp of Heitor Villa- Lobos, the world-famous Brazil ian composer, rose when he was asked if the people understood those of his compositions writ ten in the ancient Brazilian lan guage. "The people? I don't write for the people," he said in an inter view with United Press. "It is the greatest error of the Com munists to think that art is lor the people. It is not. I write for intellectuals. "Not for great intellectuals. They are prejudiced. They want to hear only what they already know and approve. "My audience is the intelligent public who have no prejudices, who will listen to the birds' songs for the same reason they listen to Beethoven because it gives them pleasure. "Art is entertainment. But not for the ignorant. It is entertain ment for those who can enjoy Program Preview Planned by PTA McLoughlin Parent - Teacher association will meet Thursday, March 21, at 8 p.m. at the school to preview the educational pro gram to be used next fall. All parents of sixth, seventh, eighth, and ninth grade students are invited to attend as well as parents from West Side and Oak Grove school districts. The program will give par ents an opportunity to meet with their children's teachers and counselors and to select the best course of study for the coming school year. Union Presented Gift of Money A gift of money from a class at the First Christian church was given to the Womans Chris tian Temperance Union treas urer at their last meeting. The money, which was donated on temperance Sunday, will be used for literature and films by the group. Mrs. George A. Trobough spoke to the group on her work at a hospital in Little Rock. Ark., and reviewed a publica tion by the Council of Bishops, titled "Christ and Myself." It was voted to have prayer each morning at 10 a.m. for the work done by the WCTU. March is membership month and mem bers are encouraged to bring visitors to the meetings. Mrs. Lucy Lynam gave the afternoon devotions.

It is sparkling and de lightful but it makes you somewhat dizzy at the end. Villa Lobos has a zest which belies his 70 years. "The trouble is that today everybody thinks he knows something," the composer con tinued. "In the good old times there were only two kinds of people the artists on the one hand, the illiterates on the other. Today's People "Today people get a little in struction; they study a system, learn some tricks, observe what Igor Stravinsky is doing, what Villa-Lobos is doing and before you can say 'Jack Robinson,' they do a little Stravinsky or Villa-Lobos. "The audience is baffled, stupefied, confused. How should they know who is the real com poser and who is the faker? "No, my friend, people do not understand anything and the in tellectuals do not tolerate any thing that is against their grain. "The audience of the good composer is midway between the highbrow and the lowbrow. He writes for the middle brow." The composer was asked if modern composers should use melodies. Melodies Needed "There is no real music with out melodies," he replied. "The trouble is that nowadays people call everything a melody. You must therefore distinguish be tween a declared melody and a natural melody. "If for instance you write 'pock, pack, tick, tack, bing, bang, bung," then you have a se quence of notes but not a mel ody. If however you write 'tral lala lallala trallala laaa," then you have a natural melody. "This is not to say that artists ike the late Arnold Schoenberg cannot write some really beauti ful compositions. However, beauty with them will always' be accident." "I listened the other day to a record made of my cat's walk over the keys of a piano. And, believe it or not, it was beautiful. "But would you say that my cat is a great composer? 4-uu CLUB NEWS Sunday, March 17, 1957 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE NINE Longfellow Held In High Esteem by Cambridge Citizens Cambridge, Mass. (U.R) George Washington slept there, but the 200-year-old mansion is better remembered for another guest. The name "Craigie - Longfel low House" suggests the high re gard residents still hold for poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow whose birth 150 years ago was celebrated here Feb. 27. One of the early owners was a Scotsman named Andrew Craigie, once an apothecary general to the Continental Army. In financial difficulties, Craigie took in boarders. One of them was Longfellow. The poet, born in Portland, Me., had come to Cambridge to take a faculty position at Har vard University. His study in the Craigie home is much the j way it was at his death in 1882. ; It was there that he wrote j "Tales of a Wayside Inn," "Evan-1 geline" and '.'The Courtship of j Miles Standish." Paintings of j friends and relatives still hang on the study walls. In a room ' directly opposite the study is a parlor where Martha Washing-1 ton once held parties. ' Built by Loyalist , The historic home, now being i suggested as a mansion for Mas sachusetts governors, is a two story Colonial structure, a sort of 18th-century square peg in a 20th-century round hole. Set back from the street and overlooking the Charles river, the mansion presents an odd con- j trast to modern vehicles that rush back and forth daily. Dickens and Thackery once dined there by candlelight and in surroundings duplicating the English atmosphere at home, j This was due to the builder and original owner, Maj. John Vas sall, who adhered closely to Brit ish custom and tradition. An ardent loyalist, Vassall was driven to the streets by a mob of agitators in 1774. He never returned to the house where he had lived for 15 years. Washington established his headquarters there a short time afterwards, finding in the sur roundings much of the taste and charm that characterized the manor estates of Virginia. However, though some of the nation's history was written be- Hot buttered soups are a per fect choice for lunches.
