Yourselves

Nearly all girls like jewelry, but
few know how to make their own.
One of these few is Joy Saalfrank,
II, of tbs Roxboro place NV. She
has made matching ring and
bracelet that are the envy of the
other girls of the senior class of
Coolidge High School.
Joy became interested in jeWelry
making after reading an advertise
ment offering detailed directions.
She bought the instructions, sup
ply Of silver and the tools needed
to make a variety of articles. At
present she is planning to make a
chain for a charm bracelet.
In her spare time Joy studies jew
elry designs and reads books on how
to reproduce them in silver. She
gave me directions for making a
brooch. but I guess I'd better stick
to newspaper work. I don't know
anything about silver, binding wire,
solder, rivet wire and gas blowpipes.
And, besides, l don't need a brooch.
Joy does as we'll with her school
work as she does as a jewelry maker.
She made the first honor roll last
semester. And when she isn't busy
making jewelry and honor rolls, she
is active in the Girl Reserves and
the Hockey, Latin and Spanish
Clubs.
Found-a high school girl who
doesn't think Frank Sinatra the
greatest crooner of them all She S
Hazel A. Mccarthy, Is, of Fairfax
tVao High School, and she writes:
1T Is not just matter OF opinion
as to whom is the better, Crosby or
Sinatra, as there is no questioning
Bing's superiority among singers
Bing's style is not growing old, as
some Sinatra fans would have you
believe. The fact is, he has never
had style He has just been him
self, singing the songs the people
wanted to hear and adding the in
imitable Crosby touch. Sinatra has
an appealing voice, but its soft quail
ity enables him to sing sentimental
songs only. Crosby can sing any
thing and make it good.
Perry Como, Dick Haynes and
Bob Eberley are good. but they
haven't got what Sinatra's got, just
as he hasn't got what Crosby's got.
All these crooners have their good
points, but Crosby is still tops-and
will continue to be, so long as he is
active in the singing profession
I pity the poor mailman after
that gets into print. But remember
you Sinatra fans: Hazel said it;
didn't.
