ccess to "a special kind of communication in music. Music is the one thing all people can understand . . . and, through music,
maybe we can get to know each other a little better."
Because of her interest in world understanding, Miss Fitzgerald also has been called the "Goodwill Ambassador of Song." She has performed at the Friedrich Stadt Palast in East Berlin, the Royal Festival Hall in London, the Hollywood Bowl in Hollywood, Calif., and Carnegie Hall in New York City.

more than 100 record albums including 19 "Songbook" albums of songs by composers such as George and Ira Gershwin, Cole Porter, Jerome Kern and Duke Ellington. She also has appeared with Ellington on several occasions as well as with many other well-known performers, including Count Basie, Frank Sinatra and Danny Kaye.

Al Capp-
The East German government bestowed upon her East Berlin's Golden Needle Award—the highest award it presents to an artist.

Capp said his choice for the Presidency is Doctor Benjamin Spock. "He's just as great an expert on diaper rash as Bobby Kennedy," he said.
Capp added that he portrayed Kennedy as a singing Western Union man in his comic series 12 weeks ago and would do the same thing today.
Not forgetting Hugh Hefner, who in Capp's opinion is the "Great Puritan," he said Hefner's "Look-but-don't-touch" policy is "turning us into a sterile nation instead of a nation composed of men of action."
The last question put to Capp was whether he thought of himself as a folk hero. His answer—"Well sure, don't we all secretly?" We're a world of Walter Mitty's."
Radicals-

"Bobby Kennedy or Eugene McCarthy could run for us if they would endorse our radical platform and disaffiliate from the Democratic party." Haq said.
Now that the Peace and Freedom party is legally recognized in two states, they will have the opportunity to voice their views in line with the equal-time provisions for all political speeches.
This is the first time the new left "movement" has been able to tell things the way it sees them and in the process recruit more people to the party, Haag said.
"In a lot of states where you wouldn't expect a radical party to emerge, it can because of the easy requirements to place its name on the ballot," Haag said.
The platform of the party, which is open to everyone from students to aliens to convicted felons, isn't completely formulated. Haag said .
Haag advocates United States withdrawal from Vietnam "the same way we got in—by boat, by plane, by rowboat if necessary." He is confident the "winning National Liberation Front would allow an orderly withdrawal of U.S. forces."
On welfare, Haag said mere diversion is not enough.
"We have the resources and technology to guarantee the basic necessities to every American as a matter of basic right."
It would be an illusion, Haag said, to expect the party's candidates to win in 1968, but he feels they can run strong campaigns on the issues, recruit new members and build the organization. At the very least, he says, the party can wipe out the Democrats in California.
The FLIPPERS are shown here in New York on the set of "The New Wave"—movie soon to be released.
