A confused young woman
writes: why can't girl refuse
an invitation from one man and
then later accept an invitation
from another to the same dance?
Mother says it would be wrong
and quotes a recent answer of
yours in your column to back her
up. I wonder what you would
say If you knew the circumstances
were these: The first man who
asked me is someone I've never
gone out with and don't like; the
second is a man who has never
before asked me for date but
who is someone I do want to go
out with very much"
I have said that to decline the
invitation of one friend to go to
Ia dance and then later accept a
second boy friends invitation to
the same dance, would be un-
Iforgivably rude to the first. But
when a man a girl does not like,
and whose attentions she does not
want to accept, invites her to go
with him she is right in refusing.
and she certainly is free to later
accept the invitation of someone
she does like very much. 1t is
every woman's right to accept Cor
Iregret) the invitation given her.

1t has been suggested that Hub
musical circles would enjoy a
presentation of Clarence Cam

"Ouanga." It is a fine idea. OF
course. it would demand hard
work but the task could be made
enjoyable. Singers would have
to be coached. The choreogra-
nhv could be devised by our local
teachers of dancing. CoStumers
presumably would supply the
necessary costumes. There would
be need of live promotion eff
fort. The opera is in English.
The scenes are laid in Haiti.
The libretto states, "The story of
tOuanga' is the true story of one
mans desperate struggle to
bring freedom and Christianity
to the people of his native land.
It is the story of Dessalines, the
liberator and first emperor of
Haiti, whose love for his country
met with heartbreak and ira
