...round of 20-hour days was beginning to tell on the President; when he flew into the big U.S. airbase at Sattahip on the Gulf of Siam the next day, he was visibly exhausted. Helicoptering to Kittikachorn's summer residence at the sparkling seaside resort of Bang Saen, the President spent a day relaxing, then headed with Lady Bird into Bangkok for a new round of ceremonies...
Appearing as the immortal Anna Pavlova, Tamara Toumanova convinced me that she is every bit as immortal as the great Pavlova. Delicate, sensuous, and with an unforgettable, fragile beauty, I am sure she does not have an equal on the ballet stage. She floats, rather than dances, through Saint-Saen's The Swan and Anton Rubinstein's Valse Caprice...
...fourth concert by the Boston Symphony Orchestra in Sanders Theatre will be held next Thursday evening, January 11, at 8 o'clock. The soloist will be Miss Irma Seydel, a promising young violinist, who will play Saint-Saen's Concerto for violin, No. 3.

She has played in Germany and was to make a tour of Europe when the war broke out. She has since appeared with the Boston Symphony Orchestra at several of its small town performances...

While the aim of the symphony concerts is to give the best music, there are few minds, even in Cambridge, capable of thoroughly appreciating three such works as Schubert's Unfinished and Beethoven's Heroic Symphonies, and St. Saen's concerto, when heard one directly after the other. Whatever reasons might be urged in defence of this course in Boston, where the concerts may be considered as an educational series, are futile here. Where they are so few and have such a long interval between them. We hope, therefore, that the next programme will...
