with my voice. have always to re-

to play it, and I'm learning to

After her many months overseas,
from Iceland to the south and back
again, in England, Ireland and else
where before the crash at Lisbon,
one might think that Miss Markof
would regard herself as honorably
discharged from such service.
Definitely, she does not.

says, Il hear they need entertain
ment. They need it everywhere
When I get we'll enough to travel
again, I must go back. They were
SO grateful for my playing, maybe
they'll like my singing"
If we we're to fix the odds, we
would say 1,000-to-1 they would like
Miss Markoff if she sang like Andy
Devine instead of like a very COM
petent vocalist.

were the nonrich who went to the
vaudeville houses or the rich who
went to the most lush night clubs,
they liked Miss Markoff and her &C

One writes those things in the past

laccordion are separated now, and
will be always But it Is not as sad
as it sounds Miss Markoff does not
feel that way about it and when you
talk to her, as we did at Troika the
other night, you re not sad either.
Miss Markoff is off on a new career,
that of singer, and she is doing so
we'll merely having changed instru-
ments - and above all doing so
bravely-that you think of that and
not of the other thing and it makes
you feel good.
Miss Markoff and her accordion
were separated, of course, in the
harbor of Lisbon, Portugal, when
the Clipper on which she was re-
turning to this country plunged into
the water, killing "a of those aboard,
Her arm, back, shoulder and left

thousands of others. If they could
do it-and she knew they could be-
cause she had seen them and played
for them and talked to them many
times-she figured she could do it
too. She had learned about war
and the individual. It did not make
her always brave, she frankly ad-

wept and when she felt bitter, and
bitterly discouraged, but they did
not add up to the number of times
when she thought about the future

bad. The shock had gone, worn
away. I even got so I think of
my accordion lying at the bottom of
the harbor, maybe being played by
a mermaid in some subsea night
club. When you get that far, the
rest is not so bad. I figured that I
had spent all my life as an enter
talner and that perhaps there was
something I could do to continue as
one. My hand, knew, was useless
so far as the accordion is concerned.
but I remembered I had been told
my voice was not bad and of having
been urged to sing. I had never
thought much about it, until then.
and one of the things that gave me
courage was my feeling that I had
one advantage over other people

She studied even then and she
