Its first winner in 1964, Diane Walsh, is a full-fledged touring recitalist, recently reviewed with high praise in the New York press. Claudia Hoca, winner a few seasons ago, is on her way to a recital career. This year the Chopin Competition committee under chairman Sue War- dynski and executive secretary George Kelver has received nearly 50 audition tapes from young entrants from many states and Canada. The society has awarded $10,000 in prizes in the decade, and the winners are given the opportunity to appear with the Buffalo Philharmon- ic. In the 1960s, having sold out Kleinhans Music Hall in three annual programs, the society was chosen by WBEN-TV to appear in about 30 televised programs, a series that lasted until 1968. In 1925 the society gave the city the sculpture of Chopin, the work of artist Joseph Mazur. After a half- century in Humboldt Park, the statue recently was placed In Sym- phony Circle, the Kleinhans Music Hall setting and home of the Philharmonic. A SOURCE OF great pride to the society members is that they've done it all themselves. no grants or subsi- dies. And with their own funds they maintain their clubrooms at 18 Kosc- ziusko their home from 1947. The society president for many years has been attorney Theodore V. Mikoll. His wife, Supreme Court Judge Ann Mikoll, is in there in the singing ranks along with her brother-. in-law and his wife, Mr. and Mrs. James Mikoll. Judge Mikoll takes a deep interest in the chorus. Theodore Mikoll's maternal grandfather, Albert Widzinski, was president in the 1920s and his uncle, John Mikolajczak, headed the soci- ety in 1931. If you looked into the ranks in past years you'd be bound to find a mayor of Buffalo - Joseph Mruk and Steven Pankow in earlier times, current Mayor Stanley M. Makowski until the 1970s. If he can make it under the press of duties, Mayor Makowski will re-join the chorus this evening. Congressman Thaddeus Dulski maintains his membership.

The Sauute to me is a Salute to our forefathers and what they represented. What is needed and wanted in this bi-centennial year is a return and re-establishemnt of those princùples unpon which our country was founded. What is needed is a return of honesty and open putting-heads-tog communication -- whether on a family basis or on a group basis, or on a governmental basis so that once again we can have a complete American Famil Life and a restoration of confidence in each other. We must reverse the deteriorating American family life and the breaking down of communication. We must open our hearts and confront the problems that beset us and put our minds to the thought to achieve understandings and agreements as the basis on which to strengthen and grow together. What is needed in gåvernment today is a government based on human understandings of the problems, with a high sense of truth and hesty if our country is to survive another 100 years. Our government offficials ha e th: responsibility to discover how they can constantly improve the level of integrity to a point where full trust in the administrative process has been restored. What is not needed is supermen- or super women (joke) out to run the world at the cost of individual liberty. This can be done by *****g being more honest and straight with other men and women. When we can restore and rekindle the abilit to communicate openly and honestly we know that we will have restored that V our forefathers instituted that is unique in the history of mangind.

Inspired by the art of choreography, she transformed her skating program into the beauty of ballet. Motivated by the desire to excel, she captivated her audience by the perfection of her performance. Animated by the spirit of self-reliance that characterizes American amateur sports, she competed successfully against a number of athletes, subsidized by the countries they represented. Disciplined by the strength of her character, she developed her ability as a student, her talent as a skater, and her personality as an individual to become a well-rounded young woman of integrity.

What a multitude of historic events, what outstanding qualities of heart and mind this name conjures forth for the American people. I Still in the fullness of his powers, Senator Goldwater has in his life time become a veritable lengend-Air Force General, rancher, businessman, statesman and national leader he has repeatedly plunged headlong into the breach. Careless of his personal fortunes he has often shown a deep awareness of the true nature of the challenge. Frequently, amid the slings and arrows, he has been the conscience of America. A man of controversy ! A man of destiny ! He symbolizes the qualities of courage and lofty principle which we must recapture if we are to fulfill our national promise. Barry Goldwater holds our feet to the fire of the responsibilities which are inseparable from freedom. Because of his integrity, his courage, his dedicated service to the Republican Party, the Women's National Republican Club is proudto present its Distinguished Political Service Award to an outstanding Republican, a true patriot, a great American, The Honorable Barry Goldwater.

I have constantly requested a meeting with her, and her silence has been my answer, and the answer to the many, many leaders who have attempted to speak with her. A few questions need answering: 1. Why has Mrs. Ford refused to speak with any of us? 2. Why does she only speak to the Libbers who do not represent the thinking of the majority of the women in this nation? 3.

Josh Commands Full Attention Josh Logan's friends braved a dark night to hear "Mr. Theat- er" himself in his first performance as a lecturer at Town Hall. He was a hit. Cheering his anecdotes about such as Dietrich, Bayer Mary Martin, Paul Newman and Marilyn Monroe were Mrs. Wil- liam Woodward, Drew Dudley, Phyllis and Bob Wagner, Sandy and Charles Gilman, Adolph Green, Sisi Cahan and hundreds of theater buffs. Josh's answers were better than the questions that followed the lecture. When someone asked about his forth-coming book, "Josh," he said that his wife had forbidden him to plug it. Really? After all that was over, the Logans received in the red Victorian living room of their River House apartment, with Nedda Logan greeting the throng in a caftan in shades of peach and apricot. In the crowd: Francesca and John Lodge, Kitty Carlisle Hart in an aubergine wool dress, Arlene Francis in a mannish brown velvet pants suit, Jane Langley with her trademark American flag in her lapel, Bubbles Hornblow with her trademark glasses perched atop her head, Dorothy Stickney, Margalo Gilmore, Mrs. Stevens Wyman, Ruth Ford, Freddie Brisson and scores of old familiar faces.

I am in this campaign to stay and to win." -- (3/21/76) Winner Betty Has a Shrug for Ronnie (By Robert Carroll, excerpted, N.Y. Daily News) Betty Ford, happy about the "excellent vibrations" she's picking up along the campaign trail charmed a luncheon crowd at the Waldorf-Astoria Saturday, graciously accepted a woman-of-the- year award and neatly sidestepped reporters' questions about the future of Ronald Reagan, who wants her husband's job. "I think the choice is his," said Mrs. Ford at a preluncheon news conference when asked whether Reagan should quit his quest of the Republican presidential nomination, as several Republican governors suggested Frida. "I think it's a very healthy situa- tion," said Mrs. Ford of the Reagan challenge. "Competition is one of the best things as far as politics is concerned." As for her own campaigning, Mrs. Ford said: "It's pretty exciting, I admit. It's something I never experienced." Radiant, but obviously a trifle nervous at the crush of reporters, photo- graphers and television camermen, she said she had found her cam- paign audiences "warm and friendly and I get excellent vibrations. They are very impressed by the improvement in the situation from what it was a year ago." Earlier yesterday the President's wife added a personal touch to her campaigning by calling Mayor Beame at Gracie Mansion and wishing him a happy 70th birthday. She also told him New York "is one of my favorite cities."
