Menuhin's Performance

Students Stage Massive FOR SENTIMENTALISTS:
Nation-Wide Viet Protest I 'Children of Paradise' Shows

By J FFREY K. CHASE
Miffed re~ctlons accompanied
the ehudi enuhinmrecital last
evening n 1 Aud
WIth the pinist Fou Ts'ong,
Menuhin performed Mozart's So-
nata for .Violin and Piano, K. 379;
Beethoven's Sonata for Violin and
Piano; No. 10, Op. 96; Debussy's
Sonata in G minor for Violin and
Piano;luand the A major Sonata
by Franck.
Concerning the Mozart and
Beethoven compositions, Menu-
hin's phrasing ftnd nuance were
musically pleasing, but a spirit of
digging right into the meat of
the music seemed lacking. The
performance was too relaxing to
be stimulating and too superficial
to be profound.
Commencing with the Debussy,
the imbalance-which previously
tended to favor the piano-began
to equalize. In addition, the spir-
it of the music improved. The two
musicians were now working to-
gether-occasionally you could see
one turn and smile approvingly at
the other in the true spirit of
chamber ensemble.
As the concert unfolded it be-
came very apparent that the pian-
ist's tones were not sounds to be
dealt with in passing. Mr. Fou is
clearly a pianist with sensitive
awareness of musical style. Espe-
cially commendable is his playing
in very, soft passages. The tones
are solid without being too loud.
The Franck piece is known to
all students of theory as one be-
ginning with. the violin chasing
the piano and then with the piano
chasing the violin. Some of the
most sensitive and spirited play-
1ng of the evening occurred in this
sonata. The 'second and fourth
movements were especially excit-
ing.

Serkin, one wonders whether the
similarly related team of father-
in-law Menuhin and son-in-law
Fou Ts'ong will be recorded in the
annals of musical comradeship
with such affection.
Neither of these musicians ever
let their abounding technique or
the temptation to "show off" their
virtuosity impede the flow of the
tones or the shape of the phrases.
Rather, they let the dialogue be-
tween violin and piano speak for
itself.

The Mozart and Beethoven so-
natas were not played with as
much zeal as might have been
desired. This perhaps resulted;
from not enough distinction be-
tween " Allegro," "Andante," and
"Adagio." The program, however,
was pleasing in another musical
sense: the playing was neither
forced nor contrived.,The violin-
ist's tone may not have been all
one desires, but the tones seemed
to flow by themselves. These per-
formers are well above worrying
about correct notes.

In Chicago, there was a minor
scuffle and some egg-throwing
when 40 pickets in front of Roose-
velt University ran into some peo-
ple who didn'tagree that the U.S.
has no business in Southeast Asia.
A bystander smashed a march-
er's placard and tried to land a
punch on the picket, but a police-
man stepped in. No arrest was
made.
Eggs, apparently thrown from
upper windows in one university
building, splashed over the pickets.
The picket line also was joined
by four counterpickets, but there
were no further incidents.
Other demonstrations by dis-
senters to U.S. participation in the
Viet Nam war were held at the
University of Chicago, in Port-
land, Maine, at the University of
California at Santa Barbara,
Wayne State University in Detroit,
in New York, at Colorado Univer-
sity and the University of Texas.

ment official said the marches,

strued overseas as a sign of wide

About 100 of a student body of
14,000 at Colorado University pa-
raded in a "march of silence"
from the campus through down-
town Boulder and back. Before
the march, some 200 persons list-

HOMECOMING PARADE:
Crowd Destroys
War Protest Float

(Continued from Page 1)
The policeman calmed the crowd
which was estimated by Dupont
to be about "50 kids" while the
float began to move about 20
miles per hour down South Uni-
versity.
The crowd chased the float as it
turned right at the corner of East
University and South University.
Preparations?
It appeared that the people were
prepared for the violence since
they had eggs with them, Gordon
said. Other reports said that the
violence was spontaneous.
According to Dupont, there was
no physical violence until the float
entered State St. and the Univer-
sity crowd.
"While we were downtown, the
townspeople booed and jeered at
us but no one attacked the float,"
Dupont said.
Dupont explained that the emo-
tional context created by the float

was greatly increased by the break-
down of the parade and the con-
stant halts on State St. The stops
gave the hecklers the oportunity
to break into violence, Dupont
added.
First Trouble
As the float reached the Union
and the first wads of paper were
thrown, one boy asked the police-
man on the corner for help in
calming the potentially agitated
crowd. According to Dupont, the
policeman refused, saying that he
had been in the Marines for three
years.
The policeman said that he did
not think the float had been ap-
proved by the Homecoming cen-
tral committee and thus did not
belong in the parade.
Dupont, however, said that the
group had paid the $10 fee for
entrance in the parade and had
received the cooperation of the
central committee.

By PAUL SAWYER
Made during the dark years.of
the N a z i occupation, Marcel
Carne's "The Children of Para-
dise" is a great burst of nostalgia,
a wistful and unabashedly roman-
tic return to the happier days-of
France's past.
It is also a three-hour-long ex-
amination of the theme of ideal-
ism and reality, of truth and
dreams, executed with an elegance
and style that will enthrall the
sentimentalist and leave some de-
licious morsels for everybody.
Jacques Prevert's screenplay ex-
plores the lives, hopes, and illu-
sions of a group of show people
in the Paris of the 1840's. Lem-
aitre, the dramatic actor (Philippe
Brasseur), is a brash dandy wait-
ing for the world to fall at his
feet; Baptiste, the mime (Jean-
Louis Barrault), is a Gallic Par-
sifal, the romantic dreamer par
excellence and Garance (Arletty)
is a woman of the world loved by
both of them. A passage of six
years finds them successful but
lonely, still clinging to the old
dreams that have passed them by.
Using this simple framework,
Prevert sets up a complex inter-
play between characters, incidents,
and motifs. For example he in-
jects a third suitor named Lace-
naire, a professional misanthrope
whose destructive cynicism con-
trasts with the essential innocence
of the two actors, yet who becomes
a sort of perverse alter ego for
them both.
The most important of the
film's many sub-themes, that of
Baptiste's loss of innocence, is ex-
plored in depth. At the beginning,
Baptiste declares to Garance in a
burst of idealism that he will defy
the "impossible." Later, in one of
his pantomimes, he stabs an old

tailor representing "the impos-
sible," the constant restraints of
reality-in order to get clothes for
a ball. At the end. Baptiste's full}
destructive potential is revealedj
when, after Garance's return, he
destroys his family's happiness in,
one terrible, wordless act of re-
pudiation.
It is probably true that Pre-'
vert's scenario dips into melo-
drama a bit too often and that
it displays too great a reliance
on romantic conventions and
cliches. The frequent epigrams in
the dialog give one the sense of
deja entendu, and many of the
minor characters, though charm-
ing, are types nonetheless. But,
after all, the setting is "the Paris
of Hugo and Dumas," and Prevert
may have consciously used roman-
ticist building blocks simply to
capture the spirit of the times.
A more serious criticism would
be the bizarre twisting of the plot
near the end. Some vigorously in-
sisted-upon parallels with "Othel-
lo" do not materialize at all, unless
one is to make Lacenaire as an
Iago figure. There is too much
that is inexplicable about it, and
I do not think Prevert knew quite
what he was doing himself.
But the film succeeds by a wide
margin, partly because of the va-
riety and color of its setting, part-
ly because of some brilliantly
imaginative individual scenes, such
as the pantomime sequences. The
photography is consistently well-
handled, with Carne's camera

moving back and forth from stage
to real world, obscuring the dis-
tinction between them and mingl-
ing reality and fancy in much the
same way the characters do in
their own lives. But in the long
run, it is probably the romantic-
ism itself that gives the film as a
whole its irresistible charm and
beauty.
