ON THE
HOUSE
5y DAVID G. BAREUTHER
You can joke all you want to
about the plumber—he's usually
good natured enough to call it
good advertising—but ycu have to
take your hat off to him when it
comes to most plumbing jous
around the house.
Except for a few minor chores,
such as fixing a dripping faucet,
clearing a clogged tran, or possibly
adiusting the mechanisiy in a flush
tank, it doesn't pay tre average
householder to go in for handy
man plumbing. The tools required
cost so much and such jobs arise
so seldom that it's smarter to vay
the expert while vou stick toyour
own last.
A monkey wrenfh, good screw
drivers and a pair of pliers will
sea you throuch minor p'umbing
iobs, but to be fully equipped to
tackle all plnmbing vou ecan use
pine vises, chain vises, pine rut
ters, a pipe stock and set of dies,
“¢ans for threading irside pine
" ends, reamers, hacksaws, ioint
ronners blowtorches, calking
irons, flaring—and anvthing else
you want from Santa Claus,
However, everv member of vour
Fousehold should know something
ahout the plumbing, Tn case of a
lask® or overflow considerable
damage can be avoided by ev

to shut the water off. Tt's a fine
idea to label important valves
with baggage tnos, which you can
get at any stationery store.
“This shuts off all water,” can
mark the moin valve near the

tars the baserment, or the house.
“This shuts off hot water” . , .

Music Program
Held Thursday
Music Appreciation, held on
Thursday at the Chapel from 8 to
9 p. m.,, will feature this week a
presentation of Pergolesi’s setting
of the opera buffa: “La Serva Pa
drona.” Byron Warner with the as
sistance of some members from
Atlanta’s Opera Work-shop, and
W. C. Owen, U. of Ga. Glee Club
president, will give a performance
of this work. _
Last Thursday under the leader- ‘
ship of Edwin Blanchard, the A
Cappella Choir was heard in some ‘
choice choral liturature — both
scared and secular. |
“Hodie Christus Natus Est,” a
matet for six voices and organ by
Heinrich Schutz was sung first
by the choir. This is music typicai
of the baroque epoch, when
“splendor, monumentality and
pathetic expression was aimed at
by musicians, painters, poets, scul
ptors, and architects.”
Supported by Lillie Pittard, so
prano soloist; Mrs. Kathryn Dozier
Bankston, Mr. Wilber Zelinski,
Mrs. Warren Strong, and Mrs.
Harris Mitchell, violins; Harris
Mitchell, french horn; and Julia
Schnebly, organ, an interesting
reading was given of Cantata No.
150—“ Lord, to Thee,” in seven
parts—a product of Bach’s early
Weimar period.
Programmed next was “Corona
tion Scene” from Moussorgsky's
opera—:‘Boris Godounov.” This
dramatic section from the opera
was offered with Phyllis Grandy
and Cora Williams at the piano;
Charles Clack and Casimir Hoff
man, soloists; and a chorus of
about forty voices. Hoods created
by Mr. Hoffman made his solo part
outstanding.
Randall Thompson—contempor
ary composer— was represented
with five settings—a parody on
“goings on” in our country and
titled “Americana.” Thompson has
definitely contributed to Ameri
can composition, and the choir’s
‘understanding of the composer’s
creative imagination made their
interpretation of this contempor
ary work their best effort,
in the opinion of some who heard
the program.
Music Appreciation Hour is
under the director of Hugh Hodg
son, Uuiversity of Georgia Music
department Head.

New Hampshire Voters Like Taft,
But Ike Has Great Prestige, Too
By BRUCE BIOSSAT
NEA Staff Correspondent
MANCHESTER, N. H. — (NEA)
—Sen. Taft's late-inning plunge
into the important New Hampshire
primary was not so wild a gamble
as you might think. This open
handed, plain-spoken man has na
tural advantages for campaigning
in so conservative a state.
Gen. Eisenhower has plenty of
formidable factors working for him
too. But the experts don’t believe
they are potent engxgh to give him
this verdict in a walk-away, now
that he has a competitor like Taft.
The Taft advantages shape up
something like this:
1. In appearance, charater and
political bent, he's almost a proto
type of the New Englander. As
one Concord man said: “He is
just the kind of man the typical
New Hampshire townsman fancies
himself to be—conservative, sim
ple, direct in manner.”
2. His record in the Senate ex
erts a profound appeal upon this
same townsman, a frugal fellow
who worries more than most about
money. “People up here like the
senator’s emphasis on budget
trimming, a tighter lid on taxes,
‘government efficiency,” he noted.
~ (New Hampshire folk haven’t
‘shared fully in the booming pros
perity of the times, nor have they
lgained their per capita share of
federal funds.)
3. Taft's natural appeal will
have a perfect outlet for expres
sion on the March 11 primary day,

ties will hold town meetings then
that will bring out the conserva
tive “up country” farmers and
self-employed in droves.
* L
A New Hampshide citizen de
seribed this phenomenon of local
government:
“They bring their lunch, and
argue all day about local taxes,
the town budget, the cost of a new
town well, or fixing a sewer. When
it's all over, they usually need
only to l‘tepa‘hcross the very same
meeting room to vote. It’s an ideal
set-up.”
A young Concord attorney en
tered a slight demurrer, pointing
out that sometimes the combatantis
are too tired to vote, and simply
go home. But the general view is
that “town meetin’ day” is good
for the polling booth.
In contrast to this outpouring
from the towns, city voters stay
away in large numbers on prim
ary day. This year only one city,
Berlin, hag an election. Overall,
the city vote is expected to follow
tradition and measure very light.
In 1948, with a hot Dewey-
Stassen bid for delegates but no
popularity contest, only 60,000 Re
publicians of a possible 304,000
cast primary ballots. The towns
accounted for 44,000, the cities a
scant 16,000. Nobody thinks this
3 to 1 ratio will change much.
4. Taft, though he has not vis
ited New Hampshire in a long
time, is rated a known quantity,
in contrast to Eisenhower. The
senator’s record and his views are
household currency. He is making

3 tablespoons melted shortening

serve with a dgenerou amount of

an open, driving bid of the Presi
dency that any man can under
stand.
And in New Hompshire there's
an old saying among the towns
filk: “I ain’t going to vote for
anybody who ain’'t asked me.”
Taft is asking, and the citizenry
here is not sc:' su‘re Eisenhower is,
*
A feeling exists among the con
servative people, too, that Taft by
experience is especially fitted for
th eWhite House. Mrs. Roscoe
Chipman, Lebanon, running for
Taft as a delegate-at-large, ex
pressed it:
“I have nothing against the
other candidates. But if you want
go to a nwatch repair man, not a
go to a watch repair man, not an
automobile machanic or some
other. Taft is prepared and will
ing. It a man wants a job, he’ll
do it better than it if’s forced on
him.”
In Eisenhower quarters there is
full acknowledgment that the
general’s silence on many specific
issues, plus his absence from the
country, is a stiff handicap.
5. Taft also enjoys whatever
psychological edge goes to the up
hill fighter, the man with every
thing to gain and mothing to lose.
He already has pricked the over
confidence of the Eisenhower
forces, who now feel a bit trapved
in a position where anything less
than a full sweep may be read by
the nation as : dffet.it for “Ike.”
But the experts see no need for
them to fret too much. On the gen
eral’s side are these factors:
1. A delegate slate lavishly
sprinkled with big New Hamp-~
shire names seems pretty certain
to draw a handsome vote. They
include Gov. Sherman Adams,
Rep. Norris Cotton, an ex-gov
ernor, an ex-congressman, a form
er national committeeman, the
New Hampshire house speaker
and the head of Exeter, famed
boy’s school.
“Tke is given an excellent
chance to take five or six from
this glosy list, while Taft is con-

slate generally less well known,
The general stands to gain futher
from the many names on the
ballot.
Said John Guider of Littleton,
the Stassen manager: “There’ll be
33 at-large delegates alone, plus
the distriet choices. Many voters
will run through the names they
know, and then give up and go
home.”
2. The next biggest boost for
Eisenhower is the tenacious legend
that “Taft can’t win.” Ted John=-
TUESDAY, FEDRUAKY 2v, xwey,
ston, secretary for Taft in the
state, sees the spread of this
legend as enemy tactics, “one of
the most cleverly conceived propa
ganda schemes"” ever !nmnr
A man in the Eisenhower foiq
said: “I know an ex-storekeeper,
a townsman. He likes Taft, but he
dosen’t think he can winn the elec
tion, and above all he wants ;
winner. So he’ll probably vote
for Eisenhower.” State canvassers
find this sentiment voiced in many
quarters. S
's & »
3. Eisenhower’s proved qualities
of leadership and his record as
military man, diplomat and ad
ministrator stand him in good
stead with many New Hampshire
people who question whether Taft
can lead the country in a time of
‘trouble. Some of them worry
‘about Taft’s foreign policy views.
~ The big intangible is this fight
|is how mucgh of that sentiment,
and the conviction the senator
l'can’t win, is to be found among
the naturally conservative towns
folk. Taft leaders declare: “Everv
farmer we hear from or hear
about is for Taft.” But a seasoned
observer retorted: “I wouldn’t buy
that.”
This much is clear. Eisenhower
has to capture more than half the
town vote to win the popularity
contest and a big margin in dele
gates, There just won’t be enoueh
citv votes out on March 11 to do
la job for him.
' The New Hampshire townsman,
a tacturn fellow who tends to
keep his own counsel holds the
key. Will he choose man cut in
key. Will he choose a celebrated
‘general, or a plainer man cut in
{ his own image?
