The exterior is being carefully cleaned with a water blasting process designed to preserve sculpture details. And several towers and chimneys will be reinforced with steel as an earthquake precaution. Considering its good structural shape, the tough old building is likely to be around for a long time, according to Jim Day, architect for the renovation. Besides, the structure is listed on the National Register of Historic Sites and is protected by law.

Potnams Sons; 8.55. at festival This Is the most refreshing book that has ever been written about an American president. In a way it wasn't written. Merle Miller interviewed former President Truman, mostly with tape recorder, in preparation for a television series. The project seems to have flopped as a TV show but it is a triumphant success as the printed revelation of an impressive human being and his massive effect on the history of these times. Harry Truman was an incredible phenomenon. Pretty much a failure in life until the age of forty, he emerged a few years later in the opinion of many historians one of the greatest American presidents. The plain speaking in this book helps to tell why. It shows a man brought up in the mores and morals of The Restoration, the first tuajor oratorio work in the Church cf Jesus Christ of Latter-daSaints in 25 years, will be presented as part of the Mormon Festival of Arts. y The annual festival will be held at Brigham Young University during the latter part of March. The oratorio will oe held in the de Jong Concert Hall March 28-3- The new musical work was written by Merrill Bradshaw, BYU who took two full years to complete the project. Dr. John R. Halliday will conduct four ccmposer-in-residenc- major BYU performing ensembles in the presentation. Written for three choirs with soloists and orchestra, the work prertrays in three sections the prophecies, events and results of the restoration of the LDS Church. A composer, Dr. Bradshaws works have been performed by many colleges ensembles and professional throughout the United States.

Mr. Trumans own homely but unmistakable language. He is a kind of American most of us can recognize. Over and over again, the Misni?T! from TnrtpnpnHpnrf souri (which, spiritually, he never left and to which he faithfully returned), emphasizes that he never confused Harry Truman with the presidency. They were separate and distinct. One must be respected and obeyed. Of the other, anybody could think what he chose. In order to create a spirit of combined worship rather tnan one oi cnteiiauiiueni, the composer has followed the Sf, precedent of Bachs and has Passion Mathew included a role for the audience. The late President Harold B. Lee, to whom the work is dedicated, wrote before his death: If I could be worthy of such an honor, I would be glad to be a party to such a worthy production. The work has been followed with interest by the LDS Church Music on which Dr. Committee, Bradshaw serves over the area of composition. Two details are tremendously revealing.
