HITS 'RACISM' IN
u. S. LAWS ON
IMMIGRATION

NE WYORK - AMP - The
United States immigration laws
were criticized as "ravist in con-
cept and application" by Walter
H. Bierringer of the Boston
AGENCY of United Service for
New Americans at its annual
board meeting at the Hotel
Roosevelt.
Bieringer said the agency
wants to remove the barriers
erected against whole races indiS-
criminately, without regard to in
dividual values and potential
contributions to the nations de-
velopment.
"The so-called quota system" "
he said, is a simple means of ex-
Guiding immigrants from many
countries. He said:
"It is an ignorant dnial of the
accepted fact that the serength of
America was built by individuals
representing every race and
creed"

Ice FoIIies, Like Football Team,
Has Coach to Phone Down 7ips
By Brion Bell. Jr.

The assistant coach on the
telephone in the press box is an
important part of a football teams
performance during game
Equally important in the Ice Fol-
lies smooth production. which
opens Tuesday night at Uline
Arena. is Skating Director Fran
Claudet who sits in the stands by
telephone to correct mistakes
on the ice.
Miss Claudet has spent many
hours drilling the precision rou-
tines with her charges and doesn't
need to use the telephone often.
However, its there in case any,
thing goes wrong.
whenever I pick up the phone
to call backstage and tell them
to fix something, it's usually been
corrected before I say a word"
Miss Claudet says. "But I feel
safer knowing I can reach some
one quickly if there's trouble on
the ice."
A star skater with the Follies
for many years before she retired
to her directors role, Miss Claudet
has experience and personality.
She also has the respect and af-
fection of the entire troupe in a
job that is not often popular with
"a cast.
Born in Canada.
Miss Claudet was bornSi Van
couver, Canada. and was a Cana
dian pairs champion and a
member of the Olympic team.
For seven years she was Canadian
skating champion before joining
the Follies in 1898. AS a director.
Miss Claudet can take the ice
and demonstrate exactly the rou-
tine she wants the skaters to
follow.
The show has been on the road
since September 4, when it started
in Los Angeles. and the troupe
was in training weeks before
opening night. One would think
there would be no need for criti-
cism or rehearsal now, but Miss
Claudet says differently.
There are more than 20 num-
bers and there are 167 in the
company so there are bound to be
some things that need correcting, "
Miss Claudet points out. Some
times the girls get a little care
less and I have to point out how
lit has affected the looks of the
number from the stands"
Uses Blackboard.
Miss Claudet does this on q
large blackboard that stands back
