BY RUTH MILLETT

I'm thinking of starting a school
for wartime mattresses. 1t ought to
be a cinch. With the demand there
is for them I ought to be able to
place every graduate. And the
course itself should be a snap.
All they would have to learn
would be few simple fundamental
rules for wartime service.
One. Never smile.
Two. Look out of the window
while the customer gives his order.
Three. Don't give him a napkin,
and if he gets up enough courage to
ask politely for one, put him in his
place by not answering but just
silently fetching the napkin a n d
tossing it disdainfully on the table.
Four. Never set a dish down gent
ly when it is possible to give the
effect Of slamming it.

BY EPSIE KINARD

NEW YORK, NOV. 2.-When those
dancing flowers-prima ballerinas
are picked from the banks Of
the Mississippi and not the Volga,
the news is that the ballet has gone
American.
St. Louis born and New York
transplanted Viola Essen-Who is
20, tall, dark, beautiful and has
eyelashes down to here's the first
Yankee dancer in ballet history to
stick star on her door. She was
the choice of the Rockefeller
backed Ballet International, which
is opening its season here.
Viola's power to enchant an au-
dience-with her ankles clicking in
mid-air like castanets and her body
spinning like a whirling top - is
spell binding. But she can divest
herself of this glamor like a girl
getting ready for a shower when
she's. not behind the footlights.
The reason, as Violas self ex-
planned routine indicates, is. that the
ballet is gruelling work which ex-
acts from four to nine hours prac-
tice a day, demands unremitting
disciplined lesson a day from the
best coach. which is her case, costs
S5.75 an hour-and taps physical
energy which would make a prize
fighter hesitate to swap his ring
for the stage.
This explains why Viola lives in
a modestly furnished suite which
her mother housekeeps in a hotel
only two blocks away from the the
alter where she practices tirelessly
with towels kept handy for mop
ping up sweat. Interviewed sitting
in the living room strewn W h
ballet slippers and piles of pink
ribbon for lacing them up, Viola
darned toe caps for new pair of
shoes while she talked. (Darned to

Out To Prove Americans Have Fire
Asked how she felt about being
the first Yankee born ballet dane
er to stick star on her door, she
said, weaving her pink-threaded
needle in and out of her shoe, that
she felt deeply honored.
II hope to disprove the critics
contention she said, waving her
shoe, that American girls are only
good at technique-that they're too
cold to put the fire into the ballet
that Russian girls can.
Out to refute the critics may be
a Yankee Doodle boast but it stems
from confidence implanted by a
great Russian ballet master-the
late Michael Mordkin-Who started
coaching Viola at six and launched
her at 10 as the ballerina of the
Mordkin ballet.
AS good as her dancing record
(she has been in one movie, "Rhap-
sody in Blue" and in a couple of
musical comedies) is the record OF
her high I. @. While her talents
paid for ballet lessons, her wits
won her a scholarship free diplo-
ma from New York's select Birch
Wathen School.

Another Storm
 Is On Way

Boston, Feb. 14.-(UP)-The sec ond major snow storm of the sea son-with from four to eight inches of snow eXpected-was forecast for New England today by the weather bureau.
 First flakes were due to fall late tonight or early tomorrow with the southern areas expected to bear the brunt of the storm.
 Northern New England, the weather bureau said, would have only light snow but Massachusetts Rhode Island and Connecticut were warned to look for a storm that would bring mot less than four inches of snow or more than eight.
 The weather bureau said that the storm was moving in from the southwest and would over spread the entire area. Temperatures were expected to be modrate and prob- ably in the upper POS in central and southern sections.

All around the northern arc of the beachhead, Brit ish armored and infantry forces fighting under "a powerful air cover stood fast against German flame throwing tanks and shock troops, according to official reports indicating that the Nazi onslaught had begun to Slacken.
 The fighting was diminish ing in the Aprilia area while the Germans regrOuped for what was expected to be another aI-Out attack. While it was possible that the Nazis might choose another point, it was safe to say that the Allies were ready for them wherever it was.
 The Britons victorious in the battle of the bridge had been on the receiving end of. stiff thrusts by the Nazi reserviStS. With fanatical zeal the Germans charged time after time until the banks were filtered with their dead and the stream itself was so clogged, its level was raised several inches.
 Then the battle-grin1ed Britons mustered tn cir strength and struck back. They seized the bridge and the stream, and now were holding the northern bank, in position to exact a heavy toll from any Germans re- newing the attack.
 There was no word of new Nazi attacks against the American sector of the beach, head and headquarters Spokesmen said the Allied forces were ''conSolida their positions" all along the embattled front.
 More than 50 miles to the south, American units battered furiously at the German lines around Cassi- no in an effort to force decisive break through that might crumple the entire enemy position in cen- tral Italy and permit the main 5th Army to join forces with the inva- sion troops on the beachhead.

Thousands Die In Nuzi Comps

Transit Camp, Alexandria Area, Feb. Hundreds of thou sands of Russians have deid of starvation, typhus and other epi- demics during two years in Ger man prison camps, five escaped Russian war prisoners said today.
 The men, who were sent to Italy 80 days before Premier Benito Mus solini's deposal, escaped during tho armistice confusion and reached American lines near CaSerta after wandering in the mountains for 28 days.
 Valentin Sizakim, an electrician from Moscow, Said the American: gave him and his four comrades the warmest of receptions. All the men called the Tanks the finest Tova- richs".
 Sizakim said that the prison camp at Byela Tserkov. more than 28.O0D Russians died of cold during esss winter. The prisoners, he said, w-~e driven around Europe like cattls to perform slave labor.
