...inexperienced and rather bad," said Traubel, but her own stature in the musical world went heavily down "for ever having my name connected with such a musical aspirant. My first, greatest and unconquerable difficulty with Margaret's voice was simply keeping her on key. There simply was not enough of everything-or of anything to make her really a concert or light-opera singer. She failed because she had no gift for self-criticism...
...regular quarterly meeting of the Connecticut Society for Psychiatry and Neurology, which usually attracts an attendance of about 60. But the 220 seats in Fitkin Amphitheater at Grace-New Haven Community Hospital were nothing like enough: eager auditors overflowed onto the floor and sat literally at the speaker's feet; standees jammed the back of the hall, an anteroom and stairways.

...distractions; Northfield is sleepily sedate, and the college bans cars, so socializing is mostly of the walk-and-talk kind. Even the occasional big stomp-and-holler has a cloistered flavor; last year Duke Ellington's band was hired, installed in the only building on campus big enough to hold both musicians and students. After a less-than-frantic first set, the Duke apologized: "The boys never played a chapel before. They're a little tense...
