Jonathan Daniels, a liberalSouthern democrat from NorthCarolina, has successfully led thedouble life of newspaper editor andpolitician. A longtime editor of theRaleigh "News and Observer", thestaunch Democratic Party tradi-tions of his family continuallylured him to the nation's capitolwhere father Josephus had servedwell as Woodrow Wilson's Navysecretary.
During the war years, Danielsdevoted himself to civilian defenseplanning as assistant director ofthat vital wartime department.President Roosevelt, recognizinghis ability, selected him for a con-fidential "White House assignmentwhich he pursued until FDR'Sdeath.
After another stint as editor ofthe "News and, Observer", hisviews as a progressive Southernerwere sought and valued by theUnited Nations Sub-Committee onthe Prevention of Discriminationand the Protection of Minorities.He has also served on the MutualSecurity Agency, formerly ECA,and as director of the "WoodrowWilson and Franklin D.

WHO'S WHO ON THE "ANIMATED MAGAZINE"(Continued from Page One)
LESTER B. PEARSONCanada's top diplomat and
gregarious world citizen, Lester B.Pearson, lias been, chosen time andagain by his government forweighty assignments of interna-tional import - to represent Canadaat the San Francisco U. N. Con-ference, to sign the Japanese Peacet rea ty in Tokyo, and the NATOtreaty in Washington.
His country's ambassador toWashington in 1945, Pearson re-turned for home duty in 1948 tojoin the Canadian Cabinet asSecretary of State. But his diplo-matic skill made him an idealchoice for Chairman of NATO'SCouncil, a post he assumed in 1951.The United Nations was logically
the next step in his career and heassumed a leading role in that bodyin 1952, culminating in hispresidency of the U.N. General As-sembly last spring.
Versatile and genial Lester Pear-son has an M. A. from Oxfordand many years of teaching ex-perience at the University ofToronto, as well as a flock ofathletic letters and service stripesin the Canadian Army and theR. C. A. F.
Both Canadian and AmericanUniversities have honored him withdegrees - Rollins for one - andVictoria University of Toronto ap-pointed him its Chancellor.
Red Fox and Mildred MurphyAppearing on "Animated Magazine"
RENZO SAWADARenzo Sawada, Ambassador Ex-
traordinary and Plentipotentiary,and Permanent Observer of Japanto The United Nations, brings tothis Animated Magazine an un-usual synthesis of oriental cultureand fin de siecle French tradition,modified by almost forty years ofimmersion in the tart brine of in-ternational diplomacy.
In the fateful year 1914, RenzoSawada graduated from Tokyo Im-perial University. His majorstudies in French Law werevaluable preparation for diplomaticservice, in 1916 at the JapaneseEmbassy in Paris, in 1919 withhis country's peace delegation toVersaille and in 1920 with the limp-ing League of Nations. In the; in-terim peace he rose in the diplo-matic ranks through posts in Parisand New York, and shortly beforeHitler's unpleasant chaps movedinto Poland, Sawada became Am-bassador to France. ThroughJapan's bitterest war years he wasAmbassador to Burma and, in1944, his country's Vice Minister ofForeign Affairs.

LILLIAN GISHLillian Gish is a name to con-
jure visions, to stir memories. Itcalls back Birth of a Nation andsome of her famous plays asCamille, The Old Maid, Crime andPunishment, and Life With Father.
Gish is a tradition in the worldof show business, stage and movies.It is safe to predict that her moviebiography will some day keep thattradition alive for younger genera-tions.
From her first appearance at theage of five in In Convict Stripes,starring Walter Huston, Gish hasbeen a professional. When she wastwelve she quit the stage andstarred in movies for almosteighteen years. Not till after shewas thirty did she return to theTheatre in,Chekhov's Uncle Vanya,for Jed Harris.
Still a trouper and a fine actress,Miss Gish has most recently ap-peared in two Selzniek productions.Duel in the Sun and Portrait ofJenny.
CARL CARMERCarl Carmer, writer and teacher,
first hit the public spotlight withhis Literary Guild selection "StarsFell on Alabama" in 1984. Sincethat financial success, a rare eventin the lives of most writers. Mr.Carmer has explored other fields.
His first publications in 1930,were two volumes of poetry.Frenchtown and Deep South, arid
early studies at Hamilton Collegeand Harvard brought him a pro-fessorship at the University ofAlabama in the English depart-ment.
His most distinguished editorshipis generally cited as that of theRivers of America Series; and ofhis seven children's books five wereillustrated by the talented Mrs.Carmer.
Call Carl Carmer a writer'swriter, for he has thrice served aspresident of the American Center ofP.E.N., an international organiza-tion of distinguished writers,twice as president of the Poetry

STUTTGART MUSICIANSCOMING TO TOWN HALLNEXT TUESDAY, FEB. 23
The next attraction on the '54Town Hall Series, and the seasonfinale will be the concert by theStuttgart Chamber Orchestra, com-ing to the High School Auditor-ium Tuesday, February 23, 8:15p.m.
The widely-heralded chamber or-chestra arrived last week aboardthe Queen Mary for its first tourof this country.
Its North American tour, ar-ranged under the auspices of theBonn government, will carry thegroup to about thirty cities ofwhich Winter Park will be one ofthe first.
Karl Muenchinger, conductor andfounder of the Stuttgart ChamberOrchestra, was once conductor ofthe Hanover Symphony in Germ-any which was dissolved at theend of World War II. By force ofthis circumstance, he undertook torealize a life's ambition by creat-ing his own small musical ensem-ble of fifteen players, the size ofBach's day, in which all the play-ers were perfectionists, each a vir-tuoso in his own right. His en-semble is now established in thefirst rank and is in demand for en-gagements in South and NorthAmerica, Europe, Mexico andPuerto Rico.
The New York Times of lastMonday made this enthusiasticcomment on their debut concertin this country: "They form avirtuoso ensemble and scored a
rousing success, for as well as play-ing with precision they can playwith warmth and a sort of head-long intensity that sweeps thelistener along. Seldom does onehear unison playing of such exacti-tude that also has the same

FLUTISTS TO PERFORMVIVALDI AND MOZARTWORKS WITH SYMPHONY
The fourth subscription concertof the Florida Symphony's currentseason will take place at the Or-lando Coliseum and will'mark theorchestra's one hundredth perfor-mance since its formation in 1951.
In observing the occasion, Con-ductor Yves Chardon has chosenas the program opener Brahms'Academic Festival Overture,written when the composer wishedto appropriately mark his accep-tance of an honorary degree at theUniversity of Breslau.
According to Sir Henry Hadlow,Brahms had his own ideas ofwhat kind of music would be mostfitting. He writes: "A. ceremonialof so solemn and academic acharacter naturally demanded anunusual display of learning.Symphonies were too trivial, or-atorios were too slight, even aneight-part a capella chorus inoctuple counterpoint was hardlyadequate to the dignity of the oc-casion. Something must be doneto mark the doctorate with all theawe and reverence due thePhilosophic Chair. So Brahms se-lected a handful of the more con-vivial student songs and workedthem into a concert overture whichremains one of the most amusingpieces of pure comedy in the wholerange of music!"
A concert innovation will be theVivaldi Concerto for two fluteswith Mrs. W. C. Anthony, promin-ent New England flutist, who is
wintering in Clermont, and Thom-as Benton, first flutist, playing thesolo parts. Mrs. Anthony will alsobe heard in Mozart's Andante forflute and orchestra.

Florida Symphony Orchestra,, with BruchollerieAs Guest Artist, Gives Gratifying Concert
The Florida Symphony orches-tra's third concert last Fridaynight twice reached lofty summitsof musical expression — in ErikSatie's masterpieces of classic sim-plicity, the Gymnopedies, Nos. 1and 2, and in the tempestuousBrahms Concerto No. 2 which, shookthe auditorium to its very founda-tions with the potent pianism ofthe guest artist, Monique de laBruchollerie.
The pianist, with her Gallic in-tensity and passionate tempera-ment, was equally in comniand ofthe keyboard in the flowing pas-sages of Brahmsian melody as inthe crashing1 bravura sections-Again, her listeners were transfix-ed by Bruchollerie's creative, per-sonal approach to the_ music, whichso movingly communicates and en-hances the musical ideas of thecomposer.

Yves Chardon's vigorous direction,played its sonorous and authori-tative best and with a grandeur ofexpression unmatched by earlierperformances this season.
The French composer, Erik Satie(1866-1926), the onetime assistantpostmaster whose works influencedDebussy and a whole generation ofmodern composers, has written, inthe two graceful Gymnopedies, mu-sic that is seemingly unpretentiousyet profoundly expressive. A pion-eer in exposing the poverty of amusical Romanticism that had be-come exaggerated to the point ofbanality, Satie's work, as so elo-'qjiently exemplified by these clas-sic Greek dances, was a startlinginnovation .in. his day. In its play-ing of the Gymnopedies, the orch-estra's restrained, shimmering pur-ity of tone was sheer poetry —or, more appropriately, a Sapphicode to beauty. •'•
Mozart's Jupiter Symphony, andespecially the second movement,,was played with delicacy, warmthand tenderness though the per-,formance was not noteworthy forfinesse or crystal clarity.

First "Animated Magazine" Audience In 192/Shivvered In Rec Hall; Rex Beach First Speaker
That exciting phenomenon Rol-lins College conjures each, Febru-ary called the "Animated Maga-zine," was conceived in the imagin-ative brain of Rollins' illustriousprexy Hamilton Holt in the Fall of1926, but was first made knownwhen he confided it to Dr. EdwinOsgood Grover in an incident verymuch like this:
Dr. Grover was -walking towardthe staircase to his classroom aboveDr. Holt's office in Carnegie Hallwhen proxy called to him, "Say,Grover, come into my office a mo-ment, I have an idea I want totalk over with you!" Dr. Grover.stepped in unsuspectingly.
"Hov would you like to go backto publishing again?" prexy ask-ed.
"Good heavens, no. Thirty yearsof it was enough for me!" repliedDr. Graver.
"Oh, 1 mean just to publish oneis.sue of a magazine," said prexymysteriously.
"I don't think one issue wouldever pay, with all the work of get-ting advertising and subscribers,"*aid the practical Dr. Grover.
"No, I mean a magazine inwhich the contributors would comedown here to Rollins and read theirartic)(!S in person. A poet couldraad his own poems and a famousnovelist a chapter from his latestbook before it's even published, seewhat I mean?"
"Oh, I see, you mean an ANI-MATED magazine!" exclaimed thesuddenly enthused Dr. Groyei1.
At this, prexy slapped his kneeend said "That's just what we'll
call it. The ANIMATED MAGA-ZINE!"
Dr. Grover agreed to sit in the"publisher's" chair if Dr. Holtwould sit in the "editor's" andfrom that moment the idea of the"Animated Magazine," which isthis year making its 27th annualappearance, beg'an to grow, i t wassoon the most-talked-about news oncampus and the impresarios firstcast about for the ideal place toseat the few hundred people whomight attend such an unprecedent-ed sort of intellectual entertain-ment.
The college carpenter had justfinished an open air, whale-likestructure on the shore of LakeVirginia. (The students call it Rec.Hall.) It was decided that thiscommodious building would servethe purpose well, although, whenthe big' day arrived, the plannershadn't reckoned that it would beone of the coldest days in Floridahistory. The crowds that packedthe hull sat attentive but shivver-ing.
One of the "charter contributors"E. W. Howe, known as the "Kan-sas philosopher" and editor of"Monthly" a widely read magazineof his time, later described theeventful day in Ms own publica-tion thus:
"Hamilton Holt, presiding, toldthe audience of about 1500, includ-ing many college presidents, jour-nalists, and men of note, that hewas an old magazine editor whowanted to put out one more maga-zine. After explaining the idea, heintroduced each contributor. Thefirst "magazine" came to life at

lican movement brought forth hisdoctor's thesis on "Fenianism andthe Celtic Renaissance," were fol-lowed by a visit to Cuba where afascination for Afro-Cuban cultureinspired his powerful novel, "Abra-ham's Wife." Returned to the U.S., our traveling prof became ateacher of public speaking at CityColleg-e, New York!
The war intervened and, becauseof his facility in German, ArmyIntelligence claimed him. And withwar's end his bachelorhood endedtoo when he met a friend-of-a-cou-sin-at-Wellesley on a romanticChristmas Eve.
But it was not until 1947 thatFrancis Thompson came into hisown as a professor of CreativeWriting at Johns Hopkins, wherehe could at last teach the subjectof his choice — for seven years.
No believer in a pedantic em-phasis on dry grammatical rules,Prof Thompson uses a "functional"approach with his students, encour-aging them to write furiously andcontinuously on a stock of themeshe has dreamed up for their men-tal and literary provocation.

BACH'S B MINOR MASS, SACRED CANTATASTO BE PERFORMED IN FESTIVAL MAR. 4 - 5
Winter Park's richly varied -cultural program would be in-complete without the spiritual re-freshment afforded by the annualBach Festival which will be givenits nineteenth performance March4 and 5 at Knowles MemorialChapel.
Conductor of the Festival isRobert Hufstader who will makehis second appearance in thatcapacity. He is director of theRollins Conservatory of Music,coming here from a similar postat the Juilliard School in NewYork, and conductor of RollinsChapel Choir.
The Bach Festival Choir ofvoice has been in rehearsal sinceearly Fall perfecting the con-trapuntal intricacies of Bach'sgreatest masterpiece, the Mass inB Minor, a work which calls fort*the best effort of the most skilledchoral group and a group of hismagnificent Cantatas. Joining thechoristers in the performance willbe nationally known guest soloistsand instrumentalists from theFlorida Symphony Orchestra. JesseBaker, prominent Orlando pianistand organist, will provide thedifficult organ accompaniment.
This year's Bach Festival isthe debut of three new solo singers,particularly noteworthy becauseSarah Jane Fleming, originally ofColumbus, Ohio, is one of the risingyoung stars in the music world.Recipient of a Tanglewood scholar-ship in 1952, she made three ap-pearances in that year with theBoston Symphony orchestra, per-forming in the Bach Cantata"Sleepers Wake," iThe NorfolkSymphony engaged her forHayden's "Creation," and theAmerican Opera Society for majorTown Hall Concerts.
Singing the contralto roles inthe Festival will be Doris Okerson,of Spring Lake, New Jersey, alsoa four year scholarship winner atJuilliard School. Robert Shaw se-lected her for soloist with hisfamed Chorale and for four yearsshe was featured in his CarnegieHall, Town Hall and other im-portant concert engagements.
Miss Okerson was chosen byDarius Milhaud, the eminentFrench modernist composer, to singin his Four Secular Solo Cantatasfor the League of Composers at theMuseum of Modern Art and overa CBS network.
Robert Price, tenor, has sungmany leading roles in opera, withthe Toronto Opera AssociationFestival, the Tanglewood FestivalOpera and Boris Goldovsky's NewEngland Opera Theatre.
Ross Rosazssa, baritone, needsno introduction to Winter Parkaudiences. Professor of Voice onthe Rollins Conservatory Faculty-his past appearances with the Bach

"YEARS AGO" SCORESTRIUMPH WITH FASTPACE, GOOD ACTING
A spontaneous burst of applausegreeted the rising curtain at theopening of "Years Ago" lastnight when an amazing replica ofa middle-class New England homewas revealed to the audience.From the two chandeliers to theinnumerable figurines, portraits,vases, and old plates,—even to thewatch chain that spanned "Papa's"none too portly abdomen,—every-thing established the proper atmos-phere for the drama to follow.
The property committee and theclass in Stagecraft under DickVerigan deserve high praise forproviding a perfect setting forsome very fine acting.
And it took very fine acting tocover the lack of action in RuthGordon's story of her adolescentblossoming into a fledgling actress.
Since the comedy portrays lifein 1912, and the audience is madeup of old first-nighters who haveheld the same seats for some years,chuckles of reminiscent amusementwere evoked when the heroine sang"The Pink Lady", or spoke ofHazel Dawn, or Maxine Elliott.Elizabeth Otis has made the roleof Ruth Gordon her own. She looksthe part and is equipped to sing, orlaugh or pout in an exquisite man-ner. She is a gifted gal. And JoanJennings as "Mamma" makes everymoment effective. She is easy andnatural and shows great promise.
Clark Warren as "Papa", is theperfect Old Salt, and conceals hisyouth convincingly, handling thedialogue with gusto, and, at theright times, with restraint.
Because the lack of action re-quires the director to keep thetempo of dialogue clicking alongat a speedy rate, it is necessaryto have a capable and well-drilledsupporting cast. Howard Bailey hasfound a perfect one in Belle Davies,Katherine Volkroth, Pete Adams,Tony Haarstick, Sonia Dorwitt,Harvey-Pylant and even Punk, thetortoiseshell cat! The play mighthave dragged without them, andthey deserve a good hand for thedelightful humor thev injected intotheir roles. —The Theatre Mouse

GREEK PIANIST GIVENHIGHEST ACCLAIM FORCIVIC MUSIC RECITAL
Gina Bachauer, internationallyrenowned Greek pianist, returnedto Orlando on Thursday eveningfor the fourth of this season's Civ-ic Music Series. It was a memor-able occasion.
She had selected a program ofdistinguished calibre and to all ofher offerings she brought the no-bility and authority of a highpriestess of the arts. Her playinghas that rare combination oi'warmth and poise. It is romanticplaying in the great tradition. Cmfeels that she is presenting themusic according to her own high vr
individual readings, as she herselfhas comprehended it intellectuallyand emotionally. And the hugeCivic Music audience listened withrapt attention.
From the grand sonorities of theVivaldi transcription she turned tothree of Scarlatti's inimitable son-atas and her tone was scaled downto just the right degree to revealtheir essential quality. Especial-ly irresistible was the final oneiii A Major.
The major work of the evening,Beethoven's Sonata in A Major,Opus 101, (first sonata of his lastperiod), .is a challenge to any pi-anist. Mme. Bachauer was emi-nently successful, Her way is notthe only way with this "master-piece, but it was indisputably herway, and playing of intensity, pow-er and enormous concentration.
After the intermission, it was

a privilege to hear Chopin's greatPolonaise in F Sharp Minor, (hasit ever been played hereabouts be-fore ?) It was grandly impressive.
Her encores following the De-bussy Suite were on the same highlevel as the rest of the program.Playing the Bach Minuet and Gi-gue from the first Partita was acharming touch, especially coiningbetween the impressionistic num-bers. /The recital was one of thehighlights of the current musicalseason. —Manly Duckworth.

These Scholar-ships range in value from $100 to$500 and are awarded on the basisof academic achievement, financialneed, and qualities of personalityand character that give promise ofleadership. Thus, recipients may at-
tend Rollins for as little as $400,but they will be required to workfor at least one-third of thefinancial aid granted. The latterstipulation, the College feels, isnecessary to develop self-relianceand maturity in its scholarshipstudents.

The Owl refused point-blank toreview the Hobby Show at the Con-gregational Church. Had he triedto do the job, he would have mon-opolized at least half of the paper.The result had he done it? a. NoSociety Notes — a lot of mad sub-scribers! Not so good! b. No ad-vertising—no eats for the Editors!Even worse!! No, the Owl justcouldn't do it.
But that show was so over-whelmingly good that he can't passit by entirely. Mr. Keith Banderand his assistants deserve the gra-titude of this community. ,The onlycriticism is that it did not last longenough, and that was not theirfault. As it was, some 1,300 personsenjoyed it.
The Owl will long remember theintoxicating aroma of the Citrusexhibit — the best smelling fea-ture of the show. Also the true"musuem quality" of the collectionof antiques, presided over by Dr.and Mrs. Eugene R. Smith, whichincluded a group from their uniquecollection of watch keys which theyhave given to Rollins College.
Then there was the showing ofFungi, artistically assembled byDr. Fred J. Seaver, and a surpris-ingly fine display of ceramics. TheOwl has somewhat outgrown anyintense regard for dolls and but-

tons, but was compelled to acknow-ledge that both were well repre-sented. He did, however, look abouthopefully for a few shirt buttonsthat might come in handy, but theywere all fastened down firmly.
Now, the Owl believes in hob-bies. He believes that a well select-ed hobby will often do a better jobthan doctors and psychiatrists inhelping some oldsters keep saneand healthy. You know the kindof folks the Owl has in mind. Theyhave enough money to live on com-fortably; they come to Florida sothey can live longer; they can'tfind anything to do when they gethere; and then the can't see anyparticular reason why they shouldlive longer. And sometimes theirfriends can't either.
Now if some of these old fus-sers would quit saying, "I justcan't think of anything to do," andwould go to building furniture outin the garage, or hoeing a gardenback of that garage, and try for ablue ribbon at the State Fair or theCamellia Show, they'd be surprisedto find what a lot of fun there stillis to be found in life.
The Hobby Show at the Univer-sity Club last year opened a lotof eyes when crowds came to seewhat certain Winter Parkians dowith their spare time. The samewas true of a similar show put onby the physicians of Cleveland afew years ago. [The visitors wereamazed to learn that the Medicspossessed so much artistic skillwith sharp-edged instruments andwith brushes, aside from their useover the operating table and inpainting inflamed tonsils. Thosedoctors knew perfectly well thevalue to them of a well-chosen andwell-stuck-to hobby. ,

An Outstanding Public Service
The people of Winter Park owe a debt of gratitude to
Rollins College for the unique opportunity it affords
us in the "Animated Magaiine." To bring such a large
group of distinguished personages here to give us in-

should be fully appreciated. No better publicity could
be devised for our City.

Another eye witness account ofthe first Animated Magazine givesa less flowery description: "Theday was windy and cold, and theaudience of about five hundredeither froze or walked out."
At convocation in Rec. Hall thefollowing day, Hamilton Holt wasinaugurated as President of Rol-lins, and delivered a "brilliant ex-tempore address." Extra robes andcaps having been made availablefor a $3.00 rental, all contributorsto the Magazine plus a few otherswere honored with degrees.
In the years that followed, theMagazine moved out of doors, forDr. Holt had faith in the friend-ship of the Big Weatherman. Onlyonce in the first twenty years wasthe Magazine rained out.
The Animated Magazine todayhas international fame, attractsseveral thousand patrons each
year, and has had nearly a hun-dred thousand readers: an "ani-mated" testimonial to the visionand ability of Hamilton Holt andEdwin O. Grover.

years, test pilot, and now holder ofthe Navy jet speed record, Lt.Commander James B. Verdin comeswell-equipped to represent our mil-itary air-age. The story in a nut-shell, however, suggests a well-mixed metaphor: Sailor fromCouncil Bluffs sets Navy recordover California.
This prodigious aeronautical en-gineer, certified by a Masters de-gree from the University of Min-nesota, drove his plane over SaltonSea, California, at 752.9 miles perhour. Now the fastest man in theNavy, Commander Verdin has erec-ted another milestone in the his-tory of aviation, making1 flighteasier and faster for those who fol-low.
Like most top pilots of today,Verdin is a solid family man, andis making it his business to pre-vent his three children from havingto follow his footsteps through an-other World War II, and anotherKorea.
