If you know the violinist's recordings, or perhaps heard him play the Brahms at a Chicago Symphony Pop last season, the Beethoven could not have surprised you.

For it had the same qualities of musicianship and high skill pointed to the single purpose that is stature of spirit. It was a memorable performance, with an ecca. sional reminder that Mr. Goldberg prefers some variants he found in a Viennese photostat of the Beethoven manuscript. Opera Dates Confirmed The Chicago Music Foundation confirms the designation of the New York City opera to present another season of opera in the Civic Opera house next season from Nov.

15 thru Dec. 16. Laszlo IIalasz, director of the company, is expected here next month to meet with the trustees of the foundation and the opera in Chicago. According to the announcement, hz. will then make a full report on the 1949 season and announce details of plans for 1950.

None of this is quite as irrelevant as it may sound. If you know Fritz Reiner, you know he would not tolerate a poor orchestra, and Pittsburgh's still bears the stamp of his authority. If you know Wilhelm Furtwaengler, you know his concert masters come out of the top drawer, with a soloist's flair to their bows. If you know Paul Paraywell, I didn't in advance of the concert, except by a reputation he immediately justified. Even with the disadvant ages of the guest conductor setup, which gives an orchestra all the stability of a musical beanbag, he got results worth hearing.

This was a spirited concert. Perhaps with his own orchestra Mr. Paray would not use quite the same approach, but as a visitor he began with bold indications of the basic rhythmic design, so that the orchestra had the shape and structure of the Freischuetz overture if not all its beauty of detail. Schumann's Fourth Symphony retained the boldness of spirit, but the lyrical luxuriance was exquisitely in place, and the sense of timing was notable for I relaxing attention without releas Relaxation Key to Prevention of the Jiffers Two Designers Combine ideas; Result: Charm rwo Designers 1 I I ombineideas, Result: Charm Charm zot.A01 1101101111111111110rimi LA Don McGuire, former Chicagoan and now a Hollywood movie actor, chats on the set with Actress Janet Leigh of "Jet Pilot" while awaiting his turn to go before the cameras in RKO's Code No. 3."

This was a two day meeting at the University of Minnesota, sponsored by the university's general extension department and its department of physical education. A physician, a physical education teacher, and a psychologist discussed the art of relaxation from the viewpoint of their various fields before an audience composed largely of teachers. So far as we could learn this relaxation institute was the first of its kind.

It is perhaps a commentary on the monumental and mounting interest in the jitters and what to do about them that the most modest announcement of this study brought to Minnesota's campus a much larger audience than had been anticipated. The physician was Dr. Edmund Jacobson of Chicago, former director of the laboratory of clinical physiology at the University of Chicago and author of You Must Relax," Progressive Relaxation," i and The Peace We Americans Need." The educator was Dr. Josephine Rathbone, associate professor of health and physical education at Teachers college of Columbia university and author of Relaxation," and Corrective Psysical Education." The psychologist was Dr. William T.

Heron, professor of psychology at the University of Minnesota and an authority on the techniques of relaxation in medicine and dentistry. The general theme of the lectures was prevention of the hypertension that is recognized as one of the great evils of society. It generally was agreedf course, that correction of the pathological effects of tension is in the province of the physician. But at what Dr. Jacobson described as this junction of medicine and grammar school teachers were urged to communicate to the pliable child the relaxation techniques.

These techniques consist for the most part of muscular skills that will help our society to cope with the hypertension that appears to be a cultural ailment, affecting the rich, the poor, the middle class adult and even the child of urban environment EA further report on the discussions at the Relaxation institute will appear tomorrow.

Some of these people are deeply religious and deny themselves pleasures and comforts for the sake of spiritual growth.

Others appear to take little or no interest in religion but give up things for ethical or purely practical reasons. A successful public lecturer says, "I always give up liquor during Lent."

You have to see the models designed jointly by these two originators to evaluate properly the ideal combination of American sleek silhouette and dashing air as combined with a definite French piquancy. Even the choice of the materials and the contrasts bespeak an alliance of two super-designers. In the current collection now available in Chicago, there are spring and summer creations that are the last word in individual distinction and charm.

Flattering two-piece suits with a lot of soft details, such as bows of the soft lightweight material of the suit itself which form the hip pockets, rounded collar and neck lines, beautifully fitted sleeves, and slim skirts make these suits extremely popular with all shoppers. Coat dresses, with numerous buttons for accent duty, are especially interesting. Skirts of these coat dresses are particularlY eye catching, being smooth and flat in front and flared at the back. Silk shantung, imported wrinkle resistant linen, combinations of linen and silk, fine summer weight woolens, and a few French silks are the favored materials. A deep blue, dark beige, and a stunning neutralneither gray nor beige are the best colors.

The most sue cessful model is the full plaited shirtwaist dress of silk shantung In this unusual neutral which is combined with a turquoise blue belt and handkerchief.
