They heard a magnificent performance by a great artist. Opening with Tausig's tran scription of Bach's great organ "Toccata and Fugue in D minor" it was immediately evident that all present were to experience a notable evening of piano play ing that is not heard often these days. Here was piano playing in the grand manner.

April 12, 1337 ar.d pedaling, plus a true singing legato. Three sonatas by Scarlatti fol lowed which were pure delight and a most pleasant contrast. The contrast seems more striking when one considers that both composers lived at the same time 1685-1757. The 'great work of the evening was Chopin's "Sonata in B minor," opus 58. This composi tion is truly piano music. It is inconceivable that it could have been written for any other in strument. Not truly a sonata in the same sense as one by Bee thoven but truly a piano sonata. Nuances range from piano pianissimo to force-fortissimo. Madam Bachauer displayed in this work a just claim to "great pianist." Seldom will we hear the like again. Faultless, is . the word for her playing. After-intermission came "Pic tures at an Exhibition" by Mous sorgsky. These compositions, eleven in number, are delinea tions of drawings of Victor Hart man, an intimate friend of the composer, as a memorial to his untimely death. In these pieces Mme. Bachauer demonstrated a sound musicianship and firm grasp of mood and coloring. A delightful composition rounding out a well balanced program. Applause was spontaneous and excitable to which the artist re sponded with three encores. We are happy to note that the management allowed . enough light for the audience to follow the program during the Mous- sorgsky number.

Jerome Haas, 1006 Nianlic street, student at McLoughlin Jun ior High school, is one of the Jackson county residents aided by the program of the Oregon Society for Crippled Children and Adults. Jerome, pictured here with two members of Epsilon Sigma Alpha sorority planning the annual Lily day sale to be held Satur day, April 13, in both Medford and Ashland, was stricken with polio on Easter, 1S49 and after several months was sent home with both legs paralyzed and unable to walk. He entered Children's Hospital school, Eugene, in September of that year and after two and one-half years was able to return to public school, with the aid of braces and crutches. The Lily sale is one method of raising funds for the society. Mrs. Howard Phillips (at left) has helped with the Easter seal work for the past five years and one year served as mailing chairman for Jackson county. Mrs. Lyman Smith, president of Alpha Lambda chapter of the sorority, is co chairman for the sale this year, the third year she has aided the project. UN Photography All Supervised By One Woman By ZETA BAIRD United Press Correspondent New York (U.R) Mrs. Aud rey Langston is the woman be hind every picture you see taken at the United Nations. This tall, blonde native of Eng land is a go-between for photo praphers, amateur or profes sional, and the world organiza tion. ' -. There is so much walking in volved in her job that she keeps six pairs of shoes on hand shoes with graduated heels. "I start the -day in high heels," she said, "But by the end, I'm usually in flats," she said. "I walk a lot you know." Actually, Mrs. Langston has a hand in every picture taken of the United Nations. Her job is to clear anyone who wants to take pictures in the delegate sec tion of the UN. Mrs. Langston said there are two main parts to her job plus all kinds of side lines. One big part is working with news photo graphers, the other is helping in dividual camera amateurs. 'Her Boys' Mrs. Langston said the news photographers aren't much trouble to clear. They usually are around every day so she knows them all. But a new face gets the usual clearance pro cedure. Mrs. Langston calls these pho tographers "the boys", and other UN personnel refers to them as "Audrey and her boys." y "It's really quite a time taking care of them," she said.. "They want to know who everyone is, you know. Someone makes a speech and they say "Okay, Audrey, who is he?' I know most of them, but sometimes a new delegate slips in on me and there I am." Mrs. Langston said she often is supposed to be clairvoyant. "The photographers come in the morning and say, "Who shall we shoot today?' And I'm supposed to know who's going to make the big news that day." No Closeups Mrs. Langston and other UN personnel are given a schedule of the day's speakers in advance. No close-up pictures may be taken on the assembly floor dur ing a session. They are taken be fore or after. The photographers may take pictures through special booths built into the sides of the assem bly room. And here is where Mrs. Langston's walking comes on. The booths cover quite a dis tance . . and Audrey covers it many times a day to check on "my boys." Almost all newcomers ask Mrs. Langston for pictures of persons in their native costumes. Mrs. Langston describes this as "really killing." "These people don't wear cos tumes in their own countries, so why should they wear them here?" she commented. Some of the sidelights on her job call for inventiveness. The photographers use huge cameras in the special booths, and there always is the danger that one j will tumble . onto the assembly j floor. Mrs. Langston said one did once. So now she ties all the cameras to the sill with a dog leash. 4 A ring mold for gelatin can be improvised by inverting a small bowl inside a large bowl or pan.

A., Department of "Are you tired of being wife, i mother, housekeeper, hostess! nurse, plumber, electrician and family shopper?" asks a popular magazine. "Does the sight of your desk piled with the chil dren's toys, the turtle's food, a half-eaten jelly sandwich, and old newspapers in addition to your own writing materials drive you into a mild frenzy?" "The youngsters get me down," sighs an overwrought young mother, "just when I think I have the house all clean and shining, Jimmy brings his gang into the living room to watch television. After they leave, there are enough cake crumbs, potatoe chips, and bubble gum wrap pers to feed a boat and I have to start cleaning all over again! "When I finish cleaning win dows, the floors need waxing. And when the waxing is done, the dresser drawers must be straightend, or spiders have fes tooned the ceiling with webs." The prepetually tired wife stud ies her dishpan hands sadly: "I just never catch - up with my work. Never!" "Don't let the mechanics of keeping house and caring for your family get you down," ad vises the American Institute of Family Relations in its new and popular study group which pro mises "less work, more fun for hbraem a.k e rs." "Don't allow yourself to be always too tired and too busy. If you make a schedule for your day and re sent its being shot to pieces by family emergencies, if you have an overwhelming passion for orderliness and cleanliness, take stock of yourself and develope new attitudes new ways of ap proaching the problem." The members of the less work, more fun group, all vic tims of time-pressure in home or office, learn new and shorter ways of doing their work, of tel escoping schedules, of relaxing tensions to conserve energy. But perhaps what is more important they learn to adopt new at itudes. And the 'result of the happy combination is a new en joyment of their families! "How can I," wails Sally "when I am snowed under with work, begin to make new sched ules or enjoy my family or my self? I'm completely thrown?

As soon as the children are old enough gain their cooperation in help ing. If Sonny is responsible for the neatness of his room, he will tend to feel responsibility' also for the neatness of the living room, even in the circle before the television. If Sue is encour age to entertain her small fri ends with a tea party in the nursery, she will be more will ing to "help with the big dishes" at lunchtime. Above all, remember that peo ple are far more important than things.
