Montgomery said "the change of 1,000 votes could have given the Republicans leadership. "We want what is best for (he people of Oregon. It is our belief they want a bi partisan approach." Montgomery said "we have called upon the Democrats in the House for a show of states manship and concern for the real welfare of Oregon" in committee appointments. "To date we have waited in vain for such statesman ship to become evident. We have offered our party's full support in helping to measure up to the level of leadership and performance the people of Oregon rightfully expect of their legislature. "To date that offer ha? been rejected," Montgomery charged. Obligation to People Montgomery said both par tics have an obligation to the people of Oregon. He ex plained the 1963 session will be a crucial one with key decisions to be made, and said neither party has a mo nopoly on experience. He charged "The House should not be organized on a partisan political basis, but rather at this crucial time the moyt able people in both par ties should be called upon to share the load of leadership." When Barton was chosen speaker-designate at a Demo cratic caucus last month, he said he was appointing a "committee on committees" to set up committee assign ments.

Cliamplin. The chief reminded hosts of the need for checking their guests' cocktail consumption, with an eye toward keeping them from behind the wheel of a car until the effects of drinks arc dissipated. Cliamplin admitted that do ing so might demand tact and diplomacy, but he added that "the consequences of per mitting someone lo leave your home in an uiuafa driv ing condition can be serious injury or death for them or someone else." "A major cause of holiday accidents," he said, spills out of glasses and bottles, and party-givers should give yobcr thought to the accident dan ger mixed with the drinks they serve." The best antidote lo liquor, he said, is time. Most authori ties recommend thai for each ounce of liquor consumed, ap proximately one hour should elapse before attempting lo drive. WHAT! NO STAMPS?

SCHWARTZ United Pran International Washingloii-iUPU-Famed pi anist Van Cliburn plans to alier his career drastically and turn to another form of musical expression. But the 28-year-old virtuoso says he'll remain a pianist for at least the next 52 years. "1 would like to be a con ductor and tour when I'm 80," Cliburn said recently. He made his directing de but last year when lie both conducted and played Proko fieff's Third Piano Concerto. His interest in conducting has grown since then. After a performance, the personable young pianist en joys autographing albums for fans, giving tips to young music students and meeting some of their teachers. He often asks the youngsters questions about their studies and what music they enjoy playing most. Winner of the first Tchi- kovsky competition in Mos cow in 1958, Cliburn candid ly admits he prefers opera to the piano and calls it his "fa vorite form of music." "When 1 was a small child I always wanted to be a Met ropolitan opera star," he re calls. "The two roles I con sider most fabulous are Don Giovanni and Boris Godou nov." In those days Cliburn found opera singers "more glamorous than any movie star." But he said his own experience Is limited to sing ing the bass part in his home town church choir. He is equally candid about liis method of selecting his repertoire. "I don't play any thing I don't like," Cliburn says. "If I like something I will try to play it and "I know I will go further that way." Grand Manner The Texas born pianist, who stands six-foot-four, says he feels most at home in large concert halls constructed in the "grand manner." "The United Stales is bless ed with a lot of beautiful halls . . . good halls. They were made In years when you could use a lot of wood." This, he said, makes them acoustically sound. His fa vorites are New York's Car negie hall and Corstitution hall in Washington, D.C 8 . .

Cliburn admits his career leaves little time for anything else, but contends that serious musi cians must lead an essentially lonely existence. Mother Was a Pianist "My mother was a concert pianist and 1 enjoyed listening 10 her practice," he recalls. "I began playing at three but' by the time I was 12 years old I began to realize how much there is to life. I want ed to be with my playmates down the street, but I had to discipline myself." Cliburn's early experi ments in music weren'i al ways successful. "I played the clarinet for four or five years in a marching band when I was 13, but I wasn't interest ed in it at all. 1 was not a good clarinet player," he adds wryly. Cliburn Is enthusiastic about Romantic literature and enjoys quoting lines from Lord Byron's "Childe Har old." He also reads mystery writers like Agatha Christie because he says they help him to relax. Lives in New York Today Cliburn says his rigorous schedule allows him only a few close friends and he maintains contact with them mostly by telephone. He lives in a small apart ment in New York where he practices from midnight on through most of the day. Sometimes, though, he stops playing in the early morning hours in deference to 'his neighbors. Recently Cliburn was elect ed one of the five most eligi ble bachelors in America by the Hollywood Bachelor Girls club. The group predicted four out of five men would be married by next June. "I'm overwhelmed," says Cliburn. "I didn't know any body knew I was around. When I marry I want a very stable household and I want my children to know their father," he adds firmly. But Cliburn is under contract un til 1985 and he says marriage will have to wait. "But," he adds with a grin, "I'd love lo meet the chair man of thai' group."
