~. S. Travellers Dollar Really Buys a Lot
In South America, Especially in Peru
By ChorIes M. Econ

sort Is Los Angeles, about 81 miles
away in the foothills of the Andes.
There, at an altitude Of 1926 feet,
it is possible to enjoy summer
weather in midwinter.
The best summer resort Is the
old seaside town of Ancon, ~ miles
north of the capital. 1t has been
fishing village since remote pre-
Incaic times and a fashionable
beach resort for about rs years.
There are number of other
beaches much closer to Lima.
In fact, the beaches play such an
important part in the lives of Lima
residents that during the summer
| months-January, February and
March-all the shops are closed
from l to 4 pm. while the people
flock to the beaches. The stores
reopen at and close at 7. The
movies and other places of enter
talnment get their biggest crowds
then, and nobody who Is anybody
thinks of having dinner before 10
pm. That is the practice generally
in South America, but there are
more Old World customs in Lima
than in any Of the other Latin
American capitals.
Bull Fighting Still Tops.
Unlike Buenos Aires and San
tiago, bull fighting still is tops in
Lima, whose bullring, the Plaza de
Acho, was built in 1765. The great
Spanish matador, Manolete, who
was fatally gored a few weeks ago
In Spain. was a national hero in
Peru. He was slightly injured last
fall when he appeared there.
Horse racing probably is second to
bull fighting in the public's esteem.
The horses race each Sunday at the
swanky new Hipodromo de San
Felipe, and here again things are
inexpensive. The general admission
cost is l sol. 1t costs men 5
soils and women only to get In
the clubhouse. Off-track betting is
legal and there is a pari-mutuel
branch near the Bolivar Hotel.
Outstanding among the must"
places to visit Is the Cathedral, where
the remains of Conquistador Fran
cisco Pizarro may be seen in a glass
casket. Pizarro himself laid the first
stone of the Cathedral after con-
quering the country in 1885. Later
destroyed and rebuilt several times,
the present structure dates back
to 1746.
Another interesting place Is the
church and sanctuary of Santa Rosa
Of Lima, begun in 1910 in honor of
the great Limenan saint. Nearby is
the garden of Santa Rosa and the
well in which she threw the keys of
the chains which she wore about her
waist. The garden is opened to the
public only once each year.
Mixture of Old, New.
A show place of a far different
kind is Paseo de Aguas at Rimac,
which was built by one of the Span
ish viceroys for his mistress, the fas-
cinating Creole actress, La Perricholi
Legend has it that the viceroy's pur-

pose was to provide the lady with
great mirror Of water.
Lima Is such q mixture Of the old
and the new that 1t would take a
week or more to see it all. And no
tourist should leave Peru without
visiting Cuzco, ancient capital of the
Incas, and Arequippa.
The thoroughness of the Corpo-
racion Macdonald Turismo in prepar-
ing its guide book on Lima is best
Illustrated in this paragraph, cap
toned "Limenan Customs:
IAN attractive woman walking
alone may at first be somewhat
startled on finding that passing men
occasionally address q few words to
her. This, however, is a tribute
rather than an impertinent attempt
to make her acquaintance. The
words, however unfamiliar, are in
variably complimentary cQue linda! /!

greatly admire a pretty woman and
they usually admire aloud. No &C

7 raveIer>s Notebooks
By Jacques FutreIIe. Jr.
The Stars Travel Editor

from Americans who have made
plans to visit the British Isles for
the 1948 Olympic Games and for
other attractions, Lord Hacking
said:
The Travel Association hopes 1t
will be possible to alleviate the new
restrictions imposed on hotels
caterers and transportation services
by next spring.
1.-The task of improving the physi-
cal facilities which will make it
possible for us to welcome much
larger number of overseas visitors
next year has been under way for
many months and has made sub
stantial progress. Hotels and inns
have been refurbishing their prem
ises. Those catering to overseas
visitors have received special gov
ernment priorities for this work,
and there is every reason to believe
this activity will continue unabated
In many instances the services they
offer are already close 10 prewar
standards"
The fall season of Sun Valley, the
bit of Idaho Landscape that was
transformed into one of America S
most attractive resorts, is well under
way. Good fishing and hunting
prospects have drawn sportsmen
into the area, and fall recreational
pursuits have been inaugurated. In
addition to the usual outdoors sports
and less exacting pastimes, the re-
sort is offering skating on an out
door artificial ice rink and, nearby,
swimming in two glass-enclosed
pools.
Reservations for snow sports of
the winter season already are being
confirmed, the management reports.
The fall program extends into De-
cember. Then follows the winter
season. Skiing will be inaugurated
officially on the traditional date,
December 81, with two new lifts
operating on Baldy or Dollar
Mountains.
The Baldy lift will extend to the
Roundhouse, two-thirds of the dis
tance to the top of the mountain,
and will supplement the present
line, which Is one of the longest
in the world. On Dollar Mountain,
the new lift will tap the beginners
and nursery" slope areas. Students
of the resorts ski school generally
will patronize this new lift, reliev-
ing the present line for those whose
skill permits them to make their
runs from the top of the mountain.

For the first time since 1899, an
off-season lull is shaping up in trans
Atlantic steamship passage.
Roughly this is the situation now .:
First-class passage to Europe can be
obtained almost Immediately; tourist
and cabin class are booked rather
heavily, and at least a month might
elapse between application for pas
sage on the better ships and the
actual sailing. Return passage is
more difficult to arrange, for all
classes 81 accommodations.
The lull is expected to become a
reality in December for east-bound
trips, but 1t appears now there still
will be pressure on ships for return
voyages.
Plans of the Holland-American
Line to run the Nieuw Amsterdam
and the Veendam on one cruise each
to the Caribbean area in December
seem to bear out the expectation
that the heavy transatlantic back
log of passengers will have been
broken. There is talk, too, that one
of the most famous lines on the At
lantic will divert at least one of its
better ships southwark to satisfy the
demand for cruises. Company plans
are said to be too vague to identify
the ship or guess at the number of
cruises to be made.
n y y Il
Despite the winter slackoff in
steamship travel to the Old World,
reservations already are piling up for
ocean crossings next spring and sum-
mer. In the travel trade are heard
assurances that England's present
austerity will not act as too much of
a brake in the popular travel season
of 1948. The international travel
division of the American Automobile
Association recently pointed this up
by quoting few words of report
by the Automobile Association of
Great Britain.
Our theme" the report said, "is
that whatever the hardships-and
these are many-the visitor must be
left alone. Otherwise, how can we
expect to pickup the hard money
represented by the tourist 'invisi-
BILE exports
Bearing out this viewpoint on
behalf of Americans visiting the
British Isles is the reported policy
of Emmanuel Shinwell, minister of
fuel and power. who is quoted thus
under questioning in Parliament
after Great Britain curbed travel
for its own people: Although the
basic petrol ration will be reduced
as of October i, the recently-ma
arrangements for the issuance of
extra coupons to foreign visitors
to cover one return journey between
the port of arrival and the furthest
destination will be continued" This
represents a victory for the Auto
mobile Association of Great Britain
and the Royal Automobile Club.

thusiastic throughout the program.
Miss Jambor Is virtuoso who can
rejoice iii the perfection Of q tech
|nique ready for every demand. She
/ has fingers of steel, especially Ii the
/ left hand, that gives tremendous
strength to her touch. But they are
also of extraordinary fexibility and
so evenly developed that every note
sounds with unblemished clarity.
This mechanical security Is set In
motion by quickly fred tempera-
ment Of unbounded vigors for broad
scaled effects and scintillating deliv-
cry of bravJra passages.
In fact, the almost elemental re-
sponse Of her temperament, rs de-
sirabIe and unusual as 1t is, places
Limitations on what could be pian-
ism Of startling quality. For when
it takes hold of her, the individual
characteristics of the composer and
the composition are obscured. What
ever she plays Is of the same pat
tern, varied only slightly by nuances
and coloring. She is capable of more
delicate effects as in the In the
Evening" of Schumanrl's 'Fantasie-
stucke," the second OF Kabalewsky's
three ''Preludes" and in the very
charming "Etude in A Minor" by
Isador Philipp but seems to spe-
cialize In the broader line.
Neither her training nor her
natural tendencies have led her to
the acquisition Of the finesse needed
to stress the essentials Of style In
such works as Debussy,s "L'Isle
Joyeuse" or the Chopin Sonata In
B Minor" with which the program
closed. She played them with opu-
lent tone and with musical concept
but without an ingratiating elegance
or warmth of sentiment. Nor was
the individualism OF Schumann
fully emphasized for here, again,
the passionate statements were
over-rugged in quality.
Her special gifts were best dis
played in the Bach-Busoni Cha
come and in the "Passacaglia" by
her compatriot, Leo Weiner. AL
though some variations in tempt
and mood interrupted the stately
continuity OF the "Chaconne." her
performance of it was mastery In
its sorority. Its depth and Its clar-
ity. The great power she Is able to
draw from the piano gave 1t a no
bility and vitality that few pianists
can equal and her finely planned
phrasing allowed the pattern of the
music to unfold with remarkable
distinctness.
Three 'Preludes" by Gershwin
balanced the three by Kabalewsky
In her program and Miss Jambor's
keen rhythmic feeling was strongly
marked In both the Russian and the
American style. The tonal restraint
she used in these and in Mr.. Wein-
er's very fine "Passacaglia." a splen-
didly designed, well executed and
grateful work, added greatly to their
appeal. A brilliant performer and
an excellently grounded musician.
Miss Jambor made a profound i'm
preston on an audience which in
cluded many pianists.

Sue Milroy who sings at the
Madrillon with Johnny Robh's or
chestra is no girl to be stumped by
a quick question.
| The latest one which did not
stump Susan, went:
Suppose you had Aladdins lamp
for half an hour, what would you
order the genie to do?"
Get me network singing show, !"
Miss Milroy said, quick as a flash.
Miss Milroy does not have Alad-
din's lamp and never expects it, but
any network with show to give
to a pretty, spirited lass can call Sue
at the Madrillon.

for a wider world to conquer does
not mean she dislikes night club
singing. She chose it as a career

lyou well enough, but are telling you

lyou well enough, but are telling you
to change completely for your own
good.
Miss Milroy is quite too busy with
her singing and her constant study
of how to be better singer to prove
the psychologist aspects of her Job
and the public. She is too busy
even to think much of her personal
| psychologist condition, beyond as
suming that 1t is sound enough for
| the time being.
One OF the things she has noticed,
however. strictly on the personal
side, is that she feels best when her
audience includes some of her old
schoolmates. This is not for the
reason you might think. namely that
ut is always most satisfying to sing
to old friends.
| Miss Milroy is honest enough to
admit there is an element of I'll
show-them in it. At least in her
own case.
"You see," she says, when went
to high school at Central, I was a
kind of square. I had to wear
print dresses with long sleeves and
was not allowed saddle shoes and
the costumes that go with them. I
suppose they just put me down as a
prim sort. At any rate, they didn't
seem to notice me much. It's fun
now to have them come in and say,
Hello, Sue"
| -.
Miss Milroy who has worked at
five night clubs in her fairly brief
career has made the surprising dis
covery that one of the hardest
things about the. job is getting home
at night. l.
Everybody seems to want to take
you home" she says. But, like the
girl who came to the party without
an escort, you want to go home the
same way. After all. the YWCA
is only 20-cent cab fare. More
over, it's quick and you are tired
So, what do you do? Miss Milroy
was asked.
well, you just say your brother,
who rows on the Cornell crew is
waiting for you. Or maybe your
father, who was an all-American
tackle at Harvard in the middle
20s."
These are only white lies and an
occupational necessity, but If a net
work wants to keep Sue from telling
them, all 1t has to do Is give her a
job.
