Luce Says Mme.
Nhu Mistreated
NEW YORK (UPD-Former
Ambassador Clare Boothe Luce
charged Wednesday that Mme.
Ngo Dinh Nhu has been treated
"as a vicious enemy of our
country."
She said that by comparison
Soviet Premier Khrushchev had
been treated like a public hero
during his visit to America.
Writing in the current issue
of the National Review Mag
azine, Mrs. Luce defended South
Viet Nam's first lady against
charges that her government
was oppressing Buddhists.
Taking note of American
criticism that the Diem family
controls the South Viet Nam
government Mrs. Luce said that
because of the Kennedy admin
istration it amounted to the pot
calling the kettle black.
She said that President Ken
nedy had put "Bobby in control
of our secret police the FBI"
and had engineered the election
of his other brother, Teddy, to
the Senate.
Try and Stop Me

No New Breaks in Portland Slaying

INTO THE suggestion hex maintained for employees of
the Illinois Central Hailrond was dropped one day the
proposal that wages in one town be paid in cash because
botn local banks were
closed early on payday.
The suggestion was ap
proved, but the very first
day the new plan went
into effect a bandit staged
a holdup and made off
with the cash.
The varmint was ap
prehended and you may
have guessed who he
turned out to be: the em
ployee who had made the
suggestion!
Vera Laurence was elect
ed to a high office in the
Pun-American Conference as a result of her story of a father
drop and a mother drop in the boundless ocean who were intent
upon teaching: their young offspring how to be a responsible part
of the sea. After a month of intensive training the father ob
served his son's antics witli satisfaction. He then announced to
the mother drop, "I do believe we now have taught Junior eveiy
thing he has to know. I hereby declare him fit to be tide."
Somebody once asked the late composer Jerome Kern, "What
is Irving Berlin's place in American music?" Kern replied, "Irv
ing Berlin has no place in American music. He IS American
music."

PORTLAND (UPD-The Mult
nomah County Sheriff's office
reported no new developments
in the Nona Christine Jackson
slaying today, after hopes for a
major development in the case
were dashed Wednesday.
Reports that a break in the
case might be forthcoming end
ed about 5 p.m. when two detec
tives returned from an out-of
town assignment and reported
to Sheriff Don Clark.
Clark and his top aides had
been hopeful throughout the day
but had refused to give the de
tails of their lead.
The '28-year-old woman's body
was found by two boys near
Gresham Sunday. She was re
ported missing June 11.
Ihe decomposed body showed
no obvious cause of death, and
authorities are awaiting a for
mal report from the coroner's
office.

Erick Friedman Gives Concert
At Opening of Music Season
By R. D. WERNER
Last night Jackson County
Civic Music Association present
ed Erick Friedman, violinist,
with Julian Bern at the piano, in
its first concert of the 1963-64
season at the Hedrick Junior
High School gymnasium. I
This young man is more than I
a violinist. He is a virtuoso and
an artist. His style is much like
Heifetz's, whose protege he is,
and that is all to the good. That
he is a serious musician he left
no doubt by the choice of pro
gram. Opening with the adagio and
fugue from Bach's "So
nata in G Minor" for violin
alone he established uneqivo
cally his command of the in
strument. This took courage and
an older more seasoned artist
would have waited until a little
later in the program to play it.
Difficult In Sonatas
Bach is difficult enough in
these sonatas and to come out
cold demonstrated considerable
assurance. It was most beauti
fully done and his tone was of
the purest, intonation was im
peccable and bowing most as
sured. The "Sonata for Violin and
Piano" by Cesar Franck intro
duced Julian Bern at the piano.
Since the work is mostly for the
Diano it is well to remark on
Mr. Bern's contribution. Here is
a pianist who knows the mean
ing of "Diano." The balance he
maintained throughout the so
nata was a real pleasure. Never
once did he lose sight of the
"melos" and hardly ever cover
ed the soloist. A beautiful, dif
ficult work performed by two
sincere, inspired musicians.
After intermission Friedman
chose for his third offering a
"Poeme Mystique" by Ernest
Bloch. This music is of an in
definable nature. It has none of
the mystical qualities of Franck
and none of the Hebraic, which
are so much associated with
Bloch's work. It is overly long
and, as is so often the case
with Bloch, it germinates and
generates until is breaks beyond
the bounds of the instruments
employed. It was most expertly
played.
We would have preferred the
"Poeme" by Chausson.
Comes Down to Earth
With the "Legende" by Wien
iawski, Mr. Friedman came
down to earth with the rest of
us and poured out the lovely
melodies in a flood of warmth
and tenderness not often heard.
This man can sing and he
proved it without doubt in this
music.
Duncan, BYU Prexy
To Address Meeting
SALEM (UPI) - Oregon
Congressman Robert Duncan
and Dr. Ernest L. Wilkinson,
president of Brigham Young
University will head a speakers'
roster at the 32nd annual Ore
gon Farm Bureau Federation
convention here Nov. 11-13.
The Democratic representa
tive will speak Nov. 11 at the
general session. Dr. Wilkinson
will be the Nov. 12 banquet
speaker.
The first University Press was
established by Cornell Universi
ty, and the year was 1869.
And with the "Havanaise" by
Saint-Saens we heard music for
the violin by a keyboard mu
sician who knew and understood
the instrument and its singing
qualities as they were not un
derstood by Ravel whose "Tzi
gane" closed the program.
ror us the Ravel piece is not
the happiest for violin solo and
only displays the knowledge of
a composer who knows its re
sources from an orchestral
standpoint. The "Zigeuner-wei-sen"
(Gypsy airs) by Sarasate
would have been more to our
liking. It is an old chestnut, bul
all the meat in it has not been
used up yet.
Plays Transcription
For encores Friedman played
a transcription of a song of Cas-telnuova-Tedesco
by Heifetz and
the "Scherzo Tarantella" by
Wieniawski.
For the civic music associa
tion to have chosen the Hedrick
Junior High School gymnasium
(it is not an auditorium) for this
season's concerts is not in the
best interests of the performers
or auditors. The acoustical shell
does not help much and the seat
ing is not conducive to an en
joyable evening. Now is the
time for the association to get
out and work for a decent real
auditorium.
To have six basketball baskets
hanging from the ceiling over
the people's heads is a little
more than some can take. Med
fordites are generous and re
spond to calls for help for the
sick and neglected but it seems
that a need is here for the well
who need some place to feed
their souls in the realm of mu-
Blustery Storm
Strikes Central
Plains Section
By United Press International
A blustery fall storm brewed
over the Central Plains today
and heavy snow fell in Colora
do and Wyoming.
The temperature dipped to 13
degrees at Ely, Nev. Both Tal
lahassee and Ocala, Fla., re
corded 32-degree readings. .
Seven inches of snow fell dur
ing the night at Leadville, Colo.,
more than 2 inches were re
ported at Lander, Wyo. Up to 3
inches of snow fell in eastern
Maine.
The weather bureau said the
storm which brought rain and
thundershowers to the plains
"gave indications of spoiling
the all hallows day for many
sections of the country."
The new moisture did little to
ease the serious drought situa
tion from inland New England
to Texas.
A forest fire raged out of con
trol at Arkansas' Ouachita Na
tional Forest today. More than
300 men fought the wind
whipped flames during the
night and 200 more were to join
the battle today. By morning'
the fire had destroyed 7,000
acres of timber.
