Since then, he has appeared with symphonies of Charlotte, Kansas City, St. Louis, At lanta, Houston, Dallas, Co lumbus, O., Birmingham, Ala., Wichita-Hutchinson, Kan., and Grand Rapids, Mich. Keeshan figures the con certs have reached between 123,000 and 130.000 children, plus assorted parents. He does two concerts in each city and all have been sellouts. In some instances, parents have advertised in local news papers hoping to get extra tickets. A Late Start "Children take to music at an early age, but rarely to the classics," said Keeshan, in an interview in his New York office. "Unfortunately, in most homes, .they're not ex posed to good music. "They are of high school age before they get around to those dreadful music appreci ation courses or can attend youth concerts. And by that time, their taste already is de veloped In the rock 'n roll area. "I think most authorities agree that the formative years for a child are three to eigiu. Well, that goes for music the same as everything else." Small children, he contin ued, do not have the atten tion span necessary for the av erage young people concerts. That is why the Captain Kan garoo concerts last no more than an hour but will include up to IB selections. The one at Grand Rapids, for instance worked in a minuet from Haydn's "The Toy Sym phony," Rossini's "William Tell Overture," a portion of Prokofleff's "Cinderella Suite," and some of Tschai kovsy's "Nutcracker Suite." Audience Participation Children's participation, with Keeshan suggesting, ranges from imaginary trips as in Leroy Anderson's "Sleigh Ride" to active roles, singing the cuckoo notes in the Haydn minuet. In R 1 m s k y - Korsakov's Flight of the Bumble Bee," the game is one of guessing to show them the role of the var ious instruments. We roam about the or chestra," said Keeshan, "look ing for something to create a buzzing sound. We may try the trombone. Ot course, it's not right. Then the tuba. No, The piano. No. Finally, we come to the violin and the children see why the stringed instrument is used." Keeshan, father of three children five to eight years of age, said that sometimes or chestra members, used to the dignified behavior of an adult audience, are a little shaken with the children's reaction. "The noise in the audience is constant," he said. "Some times the tots get so en thralled they climb right on stage. "And always, as far as the orchestra, the conductor and I are concerned, the real show is out front." a Airs.

Women's News Social Events Food Products Industry President Says By ZOLA VINCENT Paul S. Willis, president, Grocery Manufacturers of America, Inc., has recently made noteworthy comments on food. On the subject of food sup plies, he indicated availabil ity of an ever-widening va riety of new and improved products with greater supplies ot belter grades of beef, veal, lamb, mutton, turkeys, proc essed fruits and citrus juices available currently. He doesn't question the indus try's ability to continue to supply adequate foor for our growing population. "Grocery manufacturers." said Mr. Willis, . "convinced that tomorrow's products are the direct result of today s research, are investing more than $100 million annually to improve their present prod ucts and seek out new ones that will satisfy the consum- They have more than 7.000 specially trained scien tists and technicians working on this." Surprising to many will be the information that current ly, food prices at the grocery store are no higher on the average than they were in lf)52-7. 4 years ago-and they average 2 per cent below last year. Food Is the only cate gory in the Consumer Price Index of which this is true. The industry spokesman pointed out the fact that over all Consumer Price Index (made up of many items in cluding medical care, house hold utilities, personal serv ices, entertainment, etcetera) would be up 12 per cent in stead of 10 per cent without this boon. On the subject of additives, Mr. Willis reminded us that the chemical amendment is very new and very involved; that it is necessary for every one to move ahead cautiously and patiently to find safe and Bake in a moderate oven (330 until done.

The industry confidently ex pects to continue to merit this trust by providing food that is nutritious, enjoyable, and above all, safe. Company Plans Research on Fats New York - An annual grant of $100,000 for basic and clinical research in the field of edible fats and oils has been announced by The Wes son People, the world's larg est producer of cottonseed oil. E. A. Geoghegan, Wesson president, said the grant is to be administered through the newly established Wesson Fund for Medical Research and Education, aided by a dis tinguished medical advisory board. The board will review requests for financial aid from research centers, laboratories and pivate individuals whose primary work Is in nutritional research. At the outset, approximate ly 40 per cent of the funds will be devoted to studies of the digestibility of fried foods, the gastrointestinal reactions to specific fats, and related subjects. Another 40 per cent will be used to support re search into the dietary factors related to hardening of the arteries. Approximately 20 per cent, The Wesson People said, will be allotted for spe cial lecturships, symposia and other educational endeavors. EASTER WIDE SELECTION 8.95 &J Colored TERRIFIC VALUES DON'T MISS THEM! European Royalty Said Snubbing British Wedding i nndnn JITD- British news papers are complaining that European royalty appeared to he Knubbine the wedding next month of Princess Margaret and Antony Armstrong-Jones, a commoner. The Dailv Herald said that dozens of invitations to attend the May 6 ceremony at West minster Abbev had been dis tributed among the royal houses of the European con tinent, but so far only Den mark's Queen lngrid had RfjreeH to attend. The reasons tor tins poor response, the paper said, were "nther than mere inconveni ence, prior engagements or pupn nrntocol ' Other papers harped on the same theme. The Ssunaay Graphic headlined its story: "Europe s royalty sliuns wea ding." And said it was "ex traordinary" that people of rank on the continent were landing "excuses' for not at tending. The Sunday Dispatch said thp Nnrweffian roval familv was believed to have refused because Armstrong-Jones was a commoner and said the re fusal had "the definite at mosphere of a snub." The Herald also claimed the commoner status of the pros pective groom - as well as current, lurid accounts of his bachelor life in the continen tal press - had a great deal to do with dampening royal enthusiasm.

Home Economists Exhorted To Do Tall Thinking Eugene - Home economists convening on the University of Oregon campus here for the 10th annual meeting of the Oregon Home Economics' association, were exhorted to "tall thinking" to give depth, breadth, and reality to "new directions" in their profes sion. "It's turning hunches into reality, gathering facts that will make home economics strong," Dr. Laura Drum mond, vice-president of the American Home Economics' association and professor of home and family living at Teachers' College, Columbia University, told 224 home economists. Important "new directions," Dr. Drummond said, are iden tifying leaders "among the unknown"; encouragement of young people toward ad vanced degrees; experimenta tion; willingness to accept variation; support and exten sion of research programs in areas such as the aging, re habilitation and integration. To make these realities, she stressed, home economists must overcome certain blocks -"our own blinders, resist ance to change, and the ex pectation of our publics." BOOKS 'GIFTS RECORDS Practical Gifts For Travelers New York - Air travelers flying overseas are frequently deluged at the airport by gifts from well-meaning friends. Often the gifts are impactical, and it is too late to leave them home. The first rule in sending bon voyage gifts to friends go ing abroad, according to the American Express Travel service, is to send them in ad vance so that they can be packed before departure-or left home. Remember, first-class pas sengers have but 66 pounds allowance, economy only 44. And the chances are the pas senger has packed right to the limit. What's more, no matter how ingenious the se wtinn of a tiresent. it may already have been bought or given. The second rule is to select gifts that are compact, light weight, necessary or dispos able. llara irn COITIA Items reCOm- for the ladies: Soft. easily packable cocktail bag; a gay silk scan or sman "chapel" veil which can be tucked In the purse to use as head covering in cnurcnes; a lightweight silk or wool stole; a suprip Ipwelrv case: a cos metic case with plastic bot tles; stick perfume or periume in aumsol containers: nylon string shopping bag to carry on day-long jaunis; a iape measure for cnecKing loreisu sizes; hand lotion in packets.
