MUSIC AND CLOUDS—Under stormy skies, the Symphonic Band of the Midwestern Music and Art Camp presented its first concert of the
First Camp Concerts Promise Good Season
six-week season. The second half of the concert, which was performed by the Concert Choir, was rained out near the beginning of the program.

After listening to five concert presented by the two choirs, orchestra, and two bands of the Midwestern Music and Art Camp Sunday. I would urge anyone who likes variety in music to hear these high school students who come from all over the country to perform and learn from some of the most brilliant and well known directors as well as a group of KU's own music instructors.
THE CHAMBER CHOIR which followed had a fuller sound since it was approximately one-fourth the size of the Concert Choir. But, it also had a sure, as well as large, soprano section and the bass voices were as strong in the Chamber Choir as they were full and deep sounding in the Concert Choir.
The Concert Choir, the first and smaller of the two vocal ensembles on the afternoon program, gained assurance from a weak start with "Crucifixus" by Antonio Lotti to carry the vibrance of the next number, "Exsultate Deo" by Alessandro Scarletti.
Strains of "Irish Tune from County Derry" by Percy Grainger, which has come to be the theme song for the instrumental divisions of the camp, introduced the 1964 camp orchestra of 78 strings plus brass, woodwind and percussion instruments.
The 42 violins continued their preciseness in fast movements from the familiar "La Gazzia Ladra, overture," by Rossini through the fourth movement, "Allegro Vivacissimo," from "Symphony No. 3, Scotch" by Mendelssohn, which showed the work which the orchestra had put into it all week.
ENDING THE PROGRAM with a soundtrack of Americana "Saturday Night Waltz" and "Hoe Down" from Copland's "Rodeo Suite," the camp strings, softened during the first movement to accompany fine solo performances by the trumpets, clarinets, and oboes which Copland includes in parts of all his compositions. In the last movement the
violins vigorously bowed to reach high notes of good quality which pioneer hoedowns seldom heard, especially with harp accompaniment.
That evening the camp's Symphony Band, under the direction of guest conductor Howard Halgedahl from Winfield lulled the audience into a relaxed mood, already brought about in the outdoor concert area by the warm hazy-skied night. Swells in the arrangements and occasional solo passages were as welcome as the moist breeze.
After the Concert Band's first number of "Toccata" by Frescobald, this reporter left due to the sprinkles of rain which became larger and more frequent. However, "Toccata" featured solo passages sections of the band and they were a good sampling of the quality of this band and the prospects for many concerts throughout the summer, hopefully without bad weather accompaniment.
Wires Pour In For Injured Sen. Kennedy

Among the messages received was one from Pope Paul VI delivered from Rome via Richard Cardinal Cushing of Boston.
NORTHAMPTON. Mass.—(UPI)—

160 Attend Science Mee
Other messages for a speedy recovery came from Sens. Barry Goldwater, R-Ariz., and James Eastland, D-Miss., former heavyweight boxing champion Gene Tunney and comedienne Martha Raye.
An enrollment stretched beyond the maximum planned and an international faculty feature a chemistry symposium on the mechanics of inorganic reactions here through Wednesday.

Court Permits Travel by Reds
WASHINGTON—(UPI)—The Supreme Court yesterday struck down the federal law which prevents U.S. Communist Party members from traveling outside the Western Hemisphere.
Justice Arthur J. Goldberg wrote the decision, which declared unconstitutional part of the 1950 Internal Security Act prohibiting members of Communist organizations ordered to register under the act from applying for or using passports. No one can legally travel outside the Western Hemisphere without one.
The statue was challenged by Elizabeth Gurley Flynn, found by the trial court to be chairman of the Communist Party, and by Dr Herbert Aphecker, formerly editor of Political Affairs.
THE PARTY has been ordered to register under the act but up to now has fought off efforts to make it do so. On June 8, the Supreme Court refused to consider the government's appeal from a lower court ruling that may have nullified the registration requirement completely.
Goldberg held that the passport section of the 1950 act "too broadly and indiscriminately restricts the right to travel and thereby abridges the liberty guaranteed by the fifth amendment."
In 1958 the court declared that the right to travel abroad is an important aspect of a citizen's liberty guaranteed by the fifth amendment. But it did not then examine the extent to which travel could be curtailed.
"PRESENT LAWS and regulations make it a crime for a United States citizen to travel outside the Western Hemisphere or to Cuba without a passport," Goldberg said. "... The restrictive effect of the (1950) legislation cannot be gainaid by emphasizing as the government seems to do, that a member of a registering organization could recapture his freedom to travel by simply in good faith abandoning his membership in the organization."
Goldberg also noted that freedom of association is itself guaranteed in the first amendment and restrictions imposed upon the right to travel "cannot be dismissed by asserting that the right . . . could be fully exercised if the individual would first yield up his membership in a given association."
THE OPINION said that although the case is new, previous opinions have set down well-established principles by which the situation can be measured.
Museum Displays Newly Found Painting by Ernest Lawson
Goldberg said the passport section of the law "renders irrelevant the member's degree of activity in the organization and his commitment to its purpose."

Now on display in the main hall of the Art Museum is a recently discovered landscape oil painting by the turn-of-the-century American painter Ernest Lawson.
The painting was presented to the museum as a gift by William E. Saylor of Lecompton, Kan. Saylor purchased the oil at an auction in Topeka about two months ago. He did not know at the time that the painting, which was in very bad condition, was Lawson's until it was examined by instructor of art history and museum curator, Gerald Bernstein, who recognized the style and discovered the artist's name.
The painting then was sent to the Nelson Art Gallery in Kansas City for restoration processing and from there was returned to Lawrence and put on display in the Art Museum.
Bernstein gave some hint of the
"The painting is extremely important as a teaching device. It represents an example of the American impressionists and can be used by students of American art history to deepen their understanding of the particular art of this period."
landscape's value when he commented:
Lawson was an American painter who lived from 1873-1939. His work was done in the impressionist tradition, and after studying in Europe he confined himself mainly to the rural and urban landscapes of America.
Lawson was one of "The Eight," a group of artists who in 1908, began to revolt against the National Academy standards and later proposed a live-American, paint American attitude. The group also was known as the "Ashcan School."

Senators Urged to Cut Aid Bill by $390 Million
WASHINGTON—(UPI)—The U.S. Chamber of Commerce urged senators yesterday to pare about $390 million from President Johnson's original $3.4 billion foreign aid request.
John C. Teeter, vice-president of Pfizer International, told the Senate Foreign Relations Committee that the business group felt the original administration request should be cut to about $3 billion.
