joy-filled evening. As we were walking our pooch last evening we saw Mrs. Alfred B. Harbage (Eliza) arrive in for the first time in quite a while. She was just returning from a stay in Massachusetts and unsurprisingly her car was filled with exotic plants. A very large part of her home is an enviable greenhouse filled with flora which we can’t even pronounce, let alone grow. Councilman Lou Clelland (Stone Harbor's answer to William F. Buckley) just got back from taking his 32-foot motorboat “Silver Fox” to Stuart, Fla. Different friends joined him on the trip in different locations and his daughter said they have a marvelous time but hit some heavy weather in the Chesapeake, the Neuse River and both the Albermarle and Pamlico Sounds. WE SIMPLY must tell you about one of the most exciting evenings of our lives. On Friday, Oct. 21, we drove to New York to see our daughter, Maris Clement, perform in the roll of Paquette in Leonard Bernstein’s Candide, presented by the New York City Opera Co. Maris warned us to bring binoculars, which we did. She told us little else — "Yes, she did have a solo... Yes, she had only one week to learn her part and one to rehearse.” Knowing her mother’s temperament what she neglected to mention was that she had one of the leading roles. She sang a solo early in the first part and we presumed that was it. It came as a delightful surprise that she was on center stage almost the whole second half. Had she

told us, we wouldn't have slept for a week. Natch, we thought she was marvelous, the staging was great and unobtrusive, the cast terrific, die star, Jaha laugsfam, superb, the pacing fast, lyrics funny or sad as befitted the scene. Hal Prince’s direction was simply beyond as always and we don’t need to describe Bernstein’s music or orchestrations done in conjunction with Hereby Kay. This columnist was on an emotional binge and afraid she might weep when she saw her daughter after the show, but Maris had asked friends in the cast to greet us at the 61st St. exit and send us backstage. They were told they’d spot me immediately “She'll be tall, white haired and always wears threeinch heels.” We had worn black velvet flat-heeled pumps and when we saw departing cast members look disappointedly at our footwear we resolved never to wear low heels again. The last person to exit was Maris and when she saw the shoes she started to laugh, explained why we’d been waiting so long in the cold and all thoughts of tears were dispelled. She took us to the Ginger Man, a divine after-the-theater spot on 64th St. All the places were jammed but one of the stage managers, obviously a regular diner there, spotted Maris and spoke to the maitre d’ who promptly got us a table, and sent us a round to celebrate and that we did! If we never see him again we’ll never forget or cease thanking him. At 1:30 a.m. we got cabs beaded in opposite directions and parted on a nite of F above high C. Nobody did and nobody could have rained on our parade that night.

Legion Post Starts

Blood Donor Drive ^

WILDWOOD - A continuing blood donor program for the residents of the Wildwoods has been launched by Byron Pennington Croker Post, American Legion. An appeal to residents of this city, West Wildwood, North Wildwood and Wildwood Crest was made Commander Frank Turse, in announcing that the Red Cross bloodmobile will be at the post rooms, Roberts and Atlantic Aves., 2-7 p.m. tomorrow. Prospective donors are urged to call the blood donor office of the post, at 522-3613, to avoid a long waiting period. EACH DONOR will be provided a card with his or her blood type printed on it for future reference, and a record will be retained for use in an emergency or call for a specific blood type. Every minute of every day, five persons in the United States need an estimated three pints of blood, Turse explained. Multiply these 15 pints by the number of minutes in a Advisory Meet RIO GRANDE — Human Services Advisory Council of Cape May County is holding its regular monthly meeting 2 p.m. today in the Conference Room, Social Services Bldg. The public is invited to attend.

day, and the daily consumption becomes enormous. That’s why donor blood is so important, said Turaai when kept under ideal conditions, donor blood has a legal use limit of 35 days, Turse said in pointing out the continuing need for donations.

Chinnici ‘Appalled’

TRENTONAssemblyman Joseph W. Chinnici (R., 1st Dist) today stated that he was “appalled with the decision of the courts to declare that the New Jersey ‘Moment of Silence' law was unconstitutional, due to the fact that its intent was, supposedly, to promote prayer in the schools.” "I just can't believe it,” declared Chinnici. Nowhere in the bill, A-1064. which I fully supported, did it state, mention or even imply that this minute of silence was to be used for prayer. “This minute of silence was to be used by school children to reflect, contemplate, or just be quiet. Of course, if students wished to use that minute for prayer, that was their business.”
