Y., Started By BETTY BAUER ' United Press International TROY, N. Y. (UPI) - St. Jude's Roman Catholic Church in suburban Wynantskill has a new organist. That fact is not so unusual. But then, consider the organist. He's Mike Clement, aged 12. ; The crew-cut Mike taught him self to play the musical instru ; mcnt in a tavern 2's years ago. I Mike has never had a formal j lesson, although he has studied piano, but such things as the : technical names of keys and istops fail to daunt him.

UN Can Look Forward to Busy, Vigorous Future, Says Official "The efficiency and usefulness of the United Nations should not be obscured. Improvement can be made in the organization; it has just come of age and can look forward to a busy and vig orous future." On this encouraging note Dr. Leonard Meeker, deputy legal advisor to the U. S. State De partment concerning UN af fairs, closed his talk Friday night at a dinner observing Uni ted Nations day. The dinner, sponsored by Medford League of Women Voters and Jackson County Chapter, Oregon United Nations Association, attracted a large group to North's Chuck Wagon. A study of the problems and operation of the UN would show that it is similar to the United States congress in many ways, Dr. Meeker declared. "Some features and problems are common to all," Dr. Meeker said. He added that UN critics should remember that many of the speeches made during UN deliberations are, like those of American legislative bodies, made for "home consumption" and nothing else. "Solutions can be found for most serious, problems," the speaker declared. Early in his talk he noted mat it is simple efficiency to use the organiza tion's facilities of many coun tries to solve the world's prob lems. Dr. Meeker also made the point that the UN is not the At Troy, in Tavern called," he said. "I just know how to use them." And, use them he docs. The Hammond organ at St. Jude's has 38 stops, 120 keys, 14 pres ent levers and 24 foot pedals. Full-Flrdgrd As a full-fledged church organist, Mike is required to have a repertoire of at least 50 hymns. He docs. In addition, he sings the La tin responses during various services, including funeral and wedding masses. He said he can't translate the Latin but he gets "the general idea." Mike was nine when he visit ed a friend of his father's at the tavern. To entertain him self, he began to play on the organ a few tunes he had learned on the piano and, by the process of elimination, fig ured out the stops and toot ped al action. Became Assistant The results so intrigued him that Mike asked the parish priest if ho might practice on the church organ. There fol lowed hour-on-hour of practice alone each day in the choir loft and it wasn't too long before he became unofficial assistant to the regular organist. When the Rev. Thomas P Toohcr, pastor of St. Jude's, of fered him the organist's job, Mike was ready. Most mornings, the 12-year. old plays the piano before breakfast, then heads f o r church and his stint at the or gan for daily Mass. He also plays several times a week for funerals and weddings and for two masses on Sundays. "He's something, isn't he," Mike s father remarked, OBSERVES BIRTHDAY CANNES.

He added that the problem of the "hunger which affects half of mankind" is one of the continuing efforts of the UN. Dr. Meeker touched on the technical assistance which has been given to the underdevel oped nations and said that in most cases these nations have a disproportion of rural people who must be "brought forward" if the countries are to solve their problems. Concerning tne question me 'one country one vote" rule to which some object, Dr. Meeker pointed out that this is precisely the way the United States senate operates. He said no less than 15 schemes for "weighted voting have been suggested and that none would ever find approval by the entire membership. Touching on the financial problems of the United Nations Dr. Meeker said that since the World Court had ruled the na tions delinquent in payment must lose their vote under the UN constitution, he believed they eventually would begin to pay. He mentioned that Yugo slavia, for one, has already started to make up delinquent payments, and that he believes France and the boviet union will follow.

Asked if this country could reduce its military expen ditures, Dr. Meeker replied that "it would be imprudent under present circumstances to weak en our defenses" even though the budget is a staggering one. Concerning the sale of wheat to Russia, the UN expert said there are "strong reasons for going ahead with the sale" and noted that the U. S. has large surpluses of the grain and that its sale would help this nation's balance of payments problem which is a grave one. He added that there are political aspects to the sale, and added that "the Soviet Union is not the monolitlv ic state some would like to think it is" and that Khrushchev has indicated he would like a re' taxation of tensions.
