The only difficulty consists in finding sufficient words of praise, and in pointing out specific factors which-constitute such excellence. As has been mentioned in previous reviews of this group, once ex- cellent musicianship and technique have been noted, the unique tone quality remains the Quartet's most striking characteristic. From the opening bars one becomes aware of a refinement-of a truly aristocratic sound-which is as thrilling as it is rare. The quality of velvet is the most obvious analogy. And if one speculates as to how this is achieved, the answer must necessarily fall into two categories: The left hand of each quartet member has a highly developed vi- wI brato which is narrow in width, which can be subtly varied at will. It is so even and constant as to be completely unobtrusive. Herein it achieves high success. Such a technique and/or musical accomplishment is an important factor wherever a tone of excel- lence is produced. The second factor which con- stitutes their beautiful sound is bowing. Here, likewise, each per- former demonstrated a perfect and breath-taking mastery. Every bow stroke, when intended to be firm and loud, was neversrough or harsh, and when softness was de- sired, the bow clung to the string enough to be highly resonant and truly musical. * * * THEIR WHOLE CONCEPT of this technique was to bow into the string, and not drop the bow from above; to allow the arm to pull the bow, and not the bow to drag the arm. Moreover, each member seemed to conceive his instrument as a singing one, and thus even rhyth- mic, chordal passages partook of a sort of lyrical beauty. The ugly, percussive quality many quartets force from their instruments was, fortunately, entirely lacking. This final program of the three- day "Festival" consisted of the Quartet No. 2 by Cambini (1746- 1825), the Mozart D minor (K. 421), and the Schubert C major Quartet. T h e Cambini, chosen from among his 144 quartets, opened the program, and is one of the more pleasing contributions from the pen of an often minor com- poser. The performance gave to it so much that its charm seemed intrinsic. At the hands of lesser players, however, the music itself would perhaps seem less interest- ing. The performance of the Mozart K. 421 was likely as rewarding as any ever given to this work. On the surface, this music is simple, straight-forward, and of a trans- parent texture. The performers, extremely rapid in pulsation, and WASHINGTON MERRY-GO-ROUND: ;s Jet Jockey Pearson Bly DREW PEARSON therefore, have nothing "to hide behind." Every slight flaw will be apparent, and every subtlety and nuance is an integral requirement of the musical material. FOR THESE REASONS, the second movement was the most successfully met challenge of the entire concert. Due to the sparcity of music material, the interpre- tation assumes paramount impor- tance. The Quartetto was unspeak- ably excellent in this deceptively "simple" Andante. The delicious charm of the third movement Trio, and the beautifully executed syncopated section of the final movement should also be noted as being unusually well executed. The last programmed number, the Schubert, was a fitting con- clusion for a concert which was a rare privilege to attend. As a gra- cious farewell, the "Festival" con. cluded with a Vivaldi Sonata play- ed as an encore. -Charlotte Liddell DAILY OFFICIAL BULLETIN The Daily Official Bulletin Is an official publication for which the Michigan Daily assumes no editorial responsibility.

I p ik WITH THE White House con- sidering a $20-$30 billion pro- gram for air-raid shelters and with Dr. Edward Teller warning that in case of atomic war a part of the nation would have to spend days underground, it's essential to make sure that enemy planes can't pen- etrate our defenses. That's why I went out to And- rews Air Force Base, where the 85th Air Divisionischarged with defending the Atlantic seaboard from New Jersey to North Caro- lina. My ride in a jet fighter-in- terceptor and my exciting partici- pation in a simulated attack on the United States was only part of trying to find out how well defend- ed we are. Admittedly, the Intercontinental Ballistic Missile, when finally de- veloped, could penetrate our de- fenses. Also, guided missiles re- leased from an enemy submarine close to our shores are a serious danger. But I came to the con- clusion that conventionalhenemy aircraft would have an extremely difficult time effectively penetra- ting the carefully charted defenses ing the carefully charted defenses of the United States. * * * THESE DEFENSES are laid out so unobtrusively that the average citizen isn't aware of them. But they are there. They begin far out to sea, where the Navy has subs and patrol vessels equipped with radar on duty night and day. Over the sea, the Air Force also has flying laboratories equipped with long-range radar, constantly on guard. In theuFar North, at such bases as Thule, Greenland, which I recently visited, radar is also on the lookout. And in cooperation with Canada are various intricate, delicate early warning systems, the most important-to detect the ICBM-not yet finished. On the ground, in the conten- ental United States are 16 Air Divisions, of which the 85th at Andrews in southern Maryland is one. At these Air Divisions is per- formed the hardest work of all- the job of watching and charting every suspicious or unknown plane that approaches the United States. Since there are 33,000 flights daily in the U.S.A., with 600 foreign flights, this is an exacting and very difficult task. But on a huge glass board in "The Blockhouse" or "Crribat Op- erations Center" of Andrews Base are chartered the flights of planes along the Middle Atlantic sea- board. In similar blockhouses around the U.S.A., men are doing the same thing, night and day. It's a tedious, meticulous job, but it has to be done. IN A SORT of amphitheatre, looking down on this huge glass board, sit officers of the Air Force, the Army, Navy, Marines, and Civil Defense. A representative of each is always present, looking down, watching .hat glass board, ready to jump into action. There isn't any friction between these different branches of the service where the job of watching for un- known planes is done. Behind the big glass board which reaches right up to the ceil- ing, three airmen sit with tele- phones to their ears, pieces of chalk in hand, marking the loca- tion of each plane as it approach- es the area. They know what the commercial flights are. But if an "unknown" plane approaches, if for instance a British Overseas Airline plane coming up from Ber- muda should get off course and be unidentified, then the machinery of the 85th Air Division would jump into action. It would first get a report from a Navy patrol out at sea. And if neither the Navy nor the Air Force's flying radar planes off the Coast identified the plane, the 95th Fighter-Interceptor Squad- ron under Lt. Col. Joel D. Thor- valdson of Spokane would go up to take a look at the plane. (Copyright 1957 by Bell Syndicate, Inc.) THREE ROADS: Junction in the Near East By J. M.

Thus the United States has made considerable gains with the Arabs. IF THE AFRICAN-ASIAN resolution calling for sanctions is the only measure offered to enforce the UN demand, the United States will either have to vote for it or risk the loss of this new prestige. If she does vote for it, the administration is in for a hair-raising fight in Congress, where members of its own party are determined that the United States shall not take steps to punish Israel over Egypt as long as Russia remains unpunished over Hungary. The issue could force a final split between the Knowland and Eisenhower factions of the Republican party. The California senator is prepared to resign from the UN delegation to lead the fight against unilateral sanctions. There is a possibility that someone else will offer an alternative resolution, as happened in the Algerian case agailnst France, letting the United States off the hook. Some delegations, including Canada, have been busily conferring. OTHERWISE, observers believed the Presi- dent woulr have to go a little farther in the way of assurances, to get something out of current negotiations with Israel, with Israel possibly giving up part of her demands. There is always the danger that the situation such as now exists can produce new outbreaks of violence in the Middle East. But there is nothing to indicate an increase in tension there comparable with the scramble By DAVID GELFAND Daily Staff Writer THE SITUATION in the Near East has slowly reached a junction. From here, it can take one of three paths; one leads to war, another would preserve the status quo, and the last could lead to peace. The future of that area is inti- mately tied to the objectives and attitudes of the four countries most involved: Israel and Egypt, Russia, and more recently, the United States. For peace to exist, the interests of these nations must either be thwarted of compro- mised in a way agreeable to all parties concerned. Israel's objectives are quite clear. First, she wants to secure her borders against attack. Sec- ond, she wants freedom of navi- gation in the Suez Canal and the Gulf of Aquaba. But Israel's present position is ambivalent. Because of her at- tack on Egypt, her prestige and goodwill are low. Israel can ex- pect little sympathy from the UN General Assembly and will con- tinue to be morally outcast from that organization, However, Israel's trump is her occupation of the Gaza Strip and the entrance to the Gulf of Aoua- ba. Israel thus protects herself from attack along the Egyptian border and a trade outlet to Asia. No nation now able to do so is willing to wage the war necessary to dislodge her from these posi- tions. Some believe that economic If sanctions were imposed by the UN, they would undoubtedly be violated, thus lowering respect for the UN. This may explain why Secretary of State Dulles is nego- tiating feverishly with Israel, try- ing to get her out of Egypt before the pressure for unenforceable sanctionssbecomes irresistable. * * * EGYPT is the other principle party to the dispute. Her imme- diate objective is to get Israeli troops out of Egyptian territory. But because she cannot wage ef- fective war against Israel at the present time, Egypt must work through diplomatic channels. Currently, Egypt is enjoying the diplomatic benefits of having been the victim of aggression. However, this cannot be ex- pected to last. Every time Egypt brings up the question of Israeli troops in Egypt, she also raises the questions of Indian troops in Kashmir and Russian troops in Hungary. In this way, she neutra- lizes the sources from which she expects her greatest amount of moral support. When speaking of the rise and fall of Egyptian diplomacy, other factors must be brought to mind. These are the surly attitude of Egypt toward the West, and ter innumerable statements to tare ef- fect that she will never make a peace treaty with Israel. Under these conditions, Egypt's halo may quickly evaporate. In the past, Egypt has relied heavily on Russia for materiel. This will continue but to a lesser WHERE DOES the United States enter into the picture? America has assumed the part of arbitrator, which has been made possible by the measure of respect she commands from both Israel and her Arab neighbors. The Arab goodwill was created by morally supporting Egypt when that country was attacked. Israeli goodwill is to a great de- gree retained by similarity of ideologies and U.S. financial aids. The United States takes the po- sition of mediator because she wants the support of two oppos- ing groups: Western Europe and the Arab-Afro-Asian bloc of na- tions. She can only keep these loyalties if no great tensions arise between the two groups. If ten- sions do arise, the U.S. must side with one at the expense of losing the other, of aiding neither at the expense of losing both. Under the conditions of a cold war, the United States cannot afford to lose the support of anyone. As mediator, the U.S. faces dif- ficulties imposed by the attitudes and objectives of the Israelis and the Arabs. She must get Israel out of Gaza and the entrance to the Gulf of Aquaba; but Israel will not leave without guarantees that these places will not again be made available to her enemies. The U.S. must also assure the Egyptians that they will never again be attacked; but at the same time, the U.S. must exact responsible guarantees from Egypt that the Suez and the bor- AT THE STATE: True .Blue Wins Again THERE is apparently some strange axiom prevalent in the script-writers union that the only clever way to get a specific idea through the skulls of the general public is to use a sledge hammer and chisel. A fine example of this technique is "Top Secret Affair". When it became necessary to create a film dealing with the problems faced by a brave, re- sourceful, intelligent, handsome, young major general caught in the sticky mess of civilian life, the job had to be done rather heavily. Unmentionable Senate itvestiga- tors, elegant female journalists, and fat army career men plod around the screen with all the un- subtlety of a young poet at mating season, Kirk Douglas, as one might eas- ily guess, is the perfect officer. Hard and Fast, Bold and Brave, High and Mighty, Kirk fulfills all the latest and oldest movie cliches by wandering into the den of Su- san Hayward, an iniquitous young woman of the business world. Su- san, the rich and stubborn o.wner of a national magazine oddly titled Newsworld, is on the trail of a Kirk Douglas expose, since she wishes to replace him in the dip- lomatic corps with a fellow more friendly to Newsworld's journa- listic policy. * * * BUT honest Kirk is True Blue, and with extraordinary skill and extrasensory perception, he emerges from the mental seduc- tion unscathed and uncorrupted. Unfortunately, however, he makes the sad mistake of failing stars over sabre for Miss Hayward. One can't help suspecting thathad he seen enough of these bad films, he might be able to recognize her quivering lips, twitching shoul- ders, and watery eyes as evidences of some contagious disease called SEX, and would have left at the end of the previews. In any case, Susan manages to wheedle a nasty secret out of the poor officer, which like any good journalist or any irate woman, she blabs to the public when Kirk Dr. Jacob A.
