The show has been planned to contrast the mobiles' simple shapes in plexiglass, stainless steel and strips and rods of wood with the bold statements in pure color that make up the abstractions. The Garret is open Monday through Saturday (except for this afternoon's opening, 3 to 5) until March 13.

The hours are 11 to 5. AT LAST WEEK'S meeting of the Freehold Art Society, members elected Elfride Hirsch as president. Also named were: Barbara Young, vice president; Catherine Schur, treasurer; Jean Craig, recording secretary; Billy Benjamin, corresponding secretary; Mary Griffin, historian; Bruce Fallender, exhibition chairman; Jene Shapiro, program, and Lillian Gibson, publicity. It was announced at the meeting that a traveling show organized by the Federated Art Associations of New Jersey is being sponsored by the Freehold Art Society and will be exhibited at Georgian Court College, Lakewood, during March. "BRADLEY'S BRAINSTORM," an exhibition marking the 100th anniversary of the founding of Asbury Park, opens this afternoon at the Fine Arts Building, 903 Grand here.

Sponsored by the Asbury Park Society of Fine Arts, the show tells the story of this city during its first 30 years (1871 to 1901) through a group of paintings, drawings, sculpture, maps and reproductions of old ads, timetables, woodcuts, etc. The display is open to the public every Friday, Saturday new comedy and a subtle neo-cUisic in revival were appraised by theater critics last week.

By FRITZ CLEARY THE KALARSON a federation of artists working in the two dimensional field, will open a month-long exhibition at the College Center of Vpsa-la College, East Orange, next Sunday. Six members of the group will be represented in the show whose purpose is to illustrate that learning evolves for young people through the encouragement and enlightened understanding of contemporary established organization in our society.

These artists are attempting to demonstrate that the "alienations of our times" result from the fact that the young many times fail to grasp the fact that society evolves only through the collective efforts of all of its members working together. The young exhibitors are hoping to provide an example for all young people to recognize, consider and possibly emulate. One of the exhibitors is a candidate for a master of fine arts degree at Pratt Institute. Another is an interior designer associated with Design Associates, New York. One young artist is a former art coordinator for the YMCA-Or-ange summer youth program, while still another is a free lance architectural design consultant.

The remaining two exhibitors are a professional photographer and a pastel portrait artist. The exhibition will be open daily from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. THIS AFTERNOON, The Garret, 10 Riverside Red Bank, opens a showing of abstract paintings and mobiles. The paintings are the work of Donald Willett, Rumson, who has a studio in Red Bank.

When Hitler became angry, he addressed him as "Mister Hanfstaengl," alluding to his American connections. Hanfstaengl's mother hailed from Cornwall Hollow, Conn. Her father, a German emigrant named William Heine, rose to general's rank in the Union Army and took part in Lincoln's funeral.

In 19C2, Hanfstaengl tried to arrange a meeting in Munich between Hitler and the touring Winston Churchill. But Hitler, who, like Churchill, was not yet in power, refused to go and Hanfstaesgl wound up entertaining the Churchill family with his piano playing. "He probably was afraid of opposition within the party," Hanfstaengl observed. "The next day, he said he would not meet with an enemy of Germany. I told him: That's all the more reason to speak with him." ACCORDING TO Hanfstaengl.

he fell out of favor with Hitler in 1934 but remained in party post until a fateful day in February 1937. Hanfstaengl was told Hitler wanted him to fly to civil war-ravaged Spain as German press contact with Franco's forces. But once on the plane and strapped into a parachute, the pilot told him he had sealed orders from Hermann Goering to drop Hanfstaengl over enemy lines in republican Spain. During the hectic flight, which never actually left German air space, a cameraman sent along by Hitler filmed the fearful Hanfstaengl. The plane finally landed at an airport near Leipzig after the pilot reported real or feigned engine trouble.

Albert Speer in his recent memoirs, "Inside the Third Reich," said the flight was all a sinister joke hatched up by Hitler because he took offense at a remark Hanfstaengl was sunoosed to have made. The Nazi leaders, Speer said, laughed uproariously until they later learned that Hanfstaengl had fled to Switzerland. "Where was the joke?" Hanfstaengl asked angrily 34 years later. "It was a grim affair." He remains convinced it was no joke but an attempt to murder him. His name later appeared on the Nazi "Immediate arrest" list beside that of Sigmund Freud.

Hanfstaengl then emigrated to England and was interned there at the outbreak of the war. IN 1912, after being transported to an internment camp in Canada, he offered his services as a consultant on the Nazi to president Roosevelt. The offer was accepted and the still-interned Hanfstaengl was moved to a mansion, Bush Hill, in Virginia. There, Hanfstaengl said, he monitored German radio broadcasts, including speeches by Hitler and Goebbels and sent his analyses to the White House. Did he have any personal contacts with the president during this time? Hanfstaengl.

man Smith, suggested that Hanfstaengl go to a Nazi rally for him and report on his impressions of Hitler. Hanfstaengl was so impressed with Hitler that he soon became one of his most intimate followers, although he did not formally join the Nazi party until 1931. "What Hitler was able to do to a crowd in 2 Ms hours will never be repeated in 10,000 years," Hanfstaengl said. "Because of his miraculous throat construction, he was able to create a rhapsody of hysteria In time, he became the living unknown soldier of Germany." After the unsuccessful 1923 Beer Hall Putsch, Hitler fled to HanfstaengPs home in Uff-ing, outside of Munich. Hanfstaengl relates in his book that Hitler wanted to shoot himself rather than be arrested, but Hanfstaengl's wife disarmed him with a judo grip her husband had taught her.

AFTER LONG, tough political meetings, Hitler would ask Hanfstaengl to play the piano. "If I played, it meant not only that he wanted to hear music. It meant he didn't want to be talked to. That was his rest. He prolonged this sometimes for one-and-a-half hours," Hanfstaengl recalled.

In his book, Hanfstengl writes that he tried to no avail to broaden Hitler's parochial view of the world especially to impress him with the in- "i Sill SO, WE'RE HAVING IH SAVE AMD HELP US MAKE ROOM FOR THE CARPENTERS!

Hanfstaengl was in his element in a study cluttered with books, magazines, paintings, sculptures, and mementoes from a long and colorful life of the periphery of historical events friend of Hitler and, later, an adviser to Roosevelt. A framed photograph of the late Italian dictator that was signed, "Cordially, Mussolini." peeked out from behind a pile of books. No picture of Adolf Hitler was in sight. His memories of Hitler are packed into an expanded version of his autobiography, publijhed in Germany recently under the title, "Zwischen Weisseni und Braunem Haus" "Between the White and Brown House Memoirs of a Political Outsider." The White House is the one in Washington and- the Brown House was Nazi party headquarters in Municn.

A PREVIOUS edition appeared in English in 1957 under the title, "Hitler: The Missing Years, 1922-34." The new memoirs, which covers the period from 1909 to 1948 and is spiced with Interesting marginalia, tells us that: Hanfstaengl. son of a Munica art publisher, was the only Harvard graduate (Class of '09) "in the inner circle" of the Nazi party during the '20s and '30s. The first time he met Heinrich Himmler, the latter had a pacifier in his mouth. HimmVr, who was io become the dread leader of Hitler's SS and Gestapo, was a toddler at the time and his father was Hanfs'aengl's school teacher. Hanfstaengl, an accomplished but nonprofessional pianist, played in the White House when Theodore Roosevelt, father of a Harvard classmate, was president.
