I UyA What's For Children? "IS THAT MOVIE suitable for my child to see?" There's the question asked most frequently of a newspaper's movie department. Alter more than a few years of giving answers about specific movies it is my pleasure to find a formula to pass on so Individuals may use it to answer the child-movie question on their own. The formula a six-question check includes points applied here (or years in judgment on movies, although tune has never, been taken to set up a system for other to use.

Here are the questions to ask yourself In appraising a movie suitable for children: 1. Will my child understand thlx movie? 2. Will he learn something worthwhile from II 3. Is it free of situations that might frighten him? 4. It It free of brutality? 5.

The Preview says that the Legion of Lccency ratings will provide the answer to question six for Roman Catholic Personally, I'd say all but one question should be answered in the affirmative. I have seen good entertaining pictures that didn't oifer much by way of, answer to question two: "Will he learn something worthwhile from it?" I'd say no harm would be done a child if question two were given broad Interpretation, although the ideal of having movie makers put out some-, thing that teaches children (or adults, for goshsakes) anything worthwhile is cer- tainly much to be sought after.

THE AGE when children should fast see movies is a question asked as frequently as one about the kind of picture they should see. The rule of thumb in my own family (set by the head of the house) has been that a child should be at least seven years old. I've passed the good woman's standard practice rule along whenever I've been asked about age for seeing the first movie. The Preview indicates that the lady of our house and I have been conservative. "Six" is O.K., says Preview quoting Encyclopedia of Child Care and Guidance.

The Motion Picture Association (surprise) says fight. At minimum ages all authorities are agreed the child should be accompanied by an adult preferably the parent (or parents).

Artist Series and "Loud Red Patrick" On And Actors Go To Town By Brooks Atkinson The New York Times News Service NEW YORK, Oct.

4 Let's begin a new Broadway season by praising the actors. All the actors, in fact. For in the case of "The Loud Red Patrick," which reopened the Ambassador last evening, that's about all there is to praise. Arthur Kennedy plays hot-tempered Irish-American of 1912, and David Wayne plays an 74 -'hi THE MATINEE Musicale Club has engaged the young Canadian lyric tenor, Leopold Simoneau, as the replacement for James Johnston, Irish tenor, who was previbusly announce! for the club's coming series of five artists' concerts. Simoneau will make his first Cincinnati appearance at the club's third concert of its 1956-57 season.

Both at home and abroad, this young vocalist has been received with acclaim. His appearances at the Edinburgh and Glyndebourne Festivals, the Paris Opera, the Opera Comique and at La Scala Opera have brought him wide recognition abroad. Simoneau has continued his American career even while engaged abroad. His annual tours since his debut in Montreal in Ofl'enbach's "La Chanson de Fortunio," at the age of 17. have included appearances with many of the leading symphony orchestras, with the New Orleans Opera and in many recital engagements throughout the United States.

His appearance here will be the first opportunity Cincinnatians will have to hear one of the most challenging young artists of the day. THE MATINEE Musicale opens its season with the presentation of the Viennese pianist, Paul Badura Skoda, on Thursday morning, October 18, in the Hall of Mirrors, where all the club's concerts will be LEOPOLD SIMONEAU, tenor, will replace the originally scheduled James Johnston in the Matinee Musicale series.

James Congdon is bumptiously amusing as the nervous suitor, and Mary Farrell performs the ancient rites of the comic servant with agreeable good humor.

As the littlest daughters, Rcnne-Jarrett and Kimetha Laurie skim through their parts opinion of most experts, "Delinquency is due to deep-seated conflicts, the mag-zlne quotes Parents Magazine as saying. The new publication does make the good point that parents should understand each of their children and determine how much excitement he can take and his sensitivity to impression of all kinds.

Matinee Musicalo. They come from all over the world and recently they originate even from Cincinnati. This season we will bear a soloist whose principal training was in Cincinnati and who may be called a Cmcinnntian.

I refer to William Doppman. Doppman will be the first Cincinmituin ever to be soloist in a piano concerto at a regular subscription concert. Many other pianists In residence here, in connection with the College or Conservatory, have been soloists at regular CSO concerts. Doppman, however, is the first native to be so honored. THE ARTIST Series also is faking note of local talent.

John Alexander, trained at the Conservatory, may be expected to appear in the Series. This season a chorus from the College-Conservatory will sing at one of the concerts. Tho Matinee Musicale cannot, by the nature of its organization, present local professionals. This group exists for the pur-nse of introducing soloists to the local audience for the first time or returning established favorites. I OIT.I) uish that the Cincinnati lumber Music Society, which sponsors three concerts a year, would take note of the presence of as fine a chamber music organization as there is the La Salle Quartet.

But the rule is "no local talent" and even if the "local" talent is known everywhere in the world, the rule still applies. THE SYMPHONY each year introduces one or more Euro-I'an musicians to their first American audience. We were thus the instrument for presenting I mi card Seefried and Paul Hadura-Skoda in American debuts. Seelried is now everywhere acknowledged as one "of the hall'-iloen or so great sopranos. B.ulura-Skoda, who will open the Matinee Musicale season, is the world's foremost Mozart interpreter, in my opinion.

Johnson Will Open Season In 10th Year As Maestro ON FRIDAY afternoon and Saturday evening Music Hall will again be enlivened with familiar sounds. The Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra will be back home for the opening concerts of its 1956-57 season. Numerous brilliant "opening" concerts are now recorded as history of Cincinnati's Symphony and it has achieved rank as a major orchestra in this unctions Irish-American of the same vintage year. That's an attractive combination Mr. Kennedj roaring and flexing his muscles; Mr.

Wayne playing a seedy scrounger with the droop and wistfulness of a pensive pelican. "THE LOUD Red Patrick" is a popular comedy that Joh Bo-ruff has put together out of a book by Ruth McKenney. It is the harum-scarum story of an overbearing father of four daughters who is trying to prevent the oldest from marrying a young man he does not like. That is why Mr. Kennedy bellows and rages behind a set of craggly whiskers.

Mr. Wayne is a ne'er-do-well friend who acts as a comic chorus. Since the comedy is set in 1912, it may be logical for Mr. Boruff to write in the style of 1912 and for Robert Douglas to direct the performance as though he were living in the Booth Tarkington era. IF MR.

KENNEDY and Mr. Wayne are participating in this flight into the past because they think their parts are actable, they are well within their rights. lowed the policy of presenting foreign artists to America for the first time. Now, with William Doppman, further credit may be bestowed for the proper recognition of first-class local talent. The Symphony may be advised that Doppman does not exhaust the supply.

There is among others, Jean Rosenblum. I GIVE credit to the Symphony for a successful policy in the engagement of solo artists. The Artist Series has not been lax in this respect. With the Vienna Philharmonic and the NBC Opera performance of "Marriage Of Figaro" the Artist Series can expect two of the season's principal successes. A brand, spanking new opera company, based on the spick and span traditions of the NBC-TV Opera, in the greatest of all comic operas, Mozart's "Figaro," (in English), ought to hang them from the rafters of Music Hall.

So too should the Vienna Philharmonic, making its first tour of America. It Is the May Festival, supposedly the most conservative of all, that has taken the lead in the presentation of the unusual, both in soloists and in repertory. But that is another day and (mother story country. HOWEVER a reader may agree or disagree with the opinions Preview editors nave about movies, there is one thing to be said about the method they employ in reporting on them. It is most sensible, practical, and comprehensive.

nu I'LL STICK to the children's movies. The magazine liked "Goodbye My Lady," "The Great Locomotive "Glory," "The Toy Tiger." and "Pardners."
