From Ny Pen
BY MYRRHENE ALLEN

In answer to remarks made
about the childishness of this col
umn on the University of Mime
sofa, I would like to state that
this world is too full Of unhappi-
ness and seriousness. My column
is not a serious one, and very sell
dom will It contain serious arti-
cles. If can make my readers
laugh or remember the fun that
there is in life, I've accomplished
my purpose.
st. Paul was a quiet town, but
like most quiet towns at one time
or another it's serenity was dis
turbed. 1t happened in the late
'40's. Parents cringed, and teen
ayers delighted in it. At night
when all was still, a light roar
was heard in the distance. AS it
came closer and closer, it began to
sound like airplanes laundering
across the sky. Young girls peek
ed from behind drawn shades.
Young boys went to bed and par
ents huddled together, each hop
ing that it wasn't their night to
suffer. The roar ceased as abrupt
ly as II began, and once more the
night was still, but only for
minute. Shouts, laughter, and
singing from husky threats broke
the peace as stomps were heard
on some unlucky parents porch.
A doorbell rang, a hard knock was
heard, and young girls heart
pounded as she hoped her parents
would open the door Finally a
parent gave in. The young girl
was greeted with slaps on the
back and Hey, let's have some
music" So the night began with
the lucky girl calling her friends
to rush over, for they were at
her home. The parents ran for
cover to their respective bed
rooms.
Laughter, singing, and loud talk
broke one neighborhood each eve
ming. The bewitching hour came
at 1900 when a slam Of the front
door conveyed to parents that it
was over for the night. The roar
began again and became softer as

ARCHIE MOORE
TROUNCES CUBAN
HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMP

st. Louis - CAMP - Archie
Moore, worlds light heavyweight
champion, found the Cuban heavy
weight champion, Nino Valdes, too
big to kayo last week, but he
scored an easy one-sided victory
in a 10-round bout.
For the first few rounds, Moore
appeared to be Undecided at to
what to do to take care of Valdes,
but beginning with the fourth
round he took over. He tried des-
perately to kayo the Cuban, but
could not floor him. s.
Weighing $50 pounds, Moore
looked extremely small against
Valdes who weighed 210 pounds.

and softer as the distance grew
greater. The young girls went
home to bed and dreamed Of those
they had fallen for that evening.
Parents went to bed hoping the
terror wouldn't last long. Who
started the terror Of the late
'40s? Roland Grissam, Stanley
Stone, Wilbur Grissam, Hardy
White, Bill Dawson, Laverne Blu
ford, Roland Stone, Ed Mander-
Vile, and Nonnie Mccoy. Those
were really the days, and it was
fun, wasn't it?
Have you parents ever noticed
the expressions on your children's
faces after taking a final exam?
You know the exams last two
hours and inquire about every
thing, supposedly learned, during
the quarter. A professor may ask
from six to 200 questions which
are hum-dingers. The expressions
are quite interesting. There is the
student who leaves an exam with
that half smile on his face. This
means either the exam was hard
or it was easy, and the student
can't decide which II was.
There is the all grin student
who comes in the Union, or home,
dancing or singing. This has two
meanings too. Either the exam
was very hard, the student knows
he flunked it and just doesn't care;
or the exam was easy, and the
student is positive he passed it.
The worse expression to see is the
blank stare and head. This means
the student knows or is almost
sure he flunked the exam. It's a
pitiful sight. Last but not least
is the student who enters pouting
and uttering words not fit for
human ears. The student hadn't
studied too hard for the exam,
and the Professor asked every
thing he didn't know. Such has
been the University students, fate
this week. At one time or another
each wore one of the expressions.
Wen it's all over and tonight,
Thursday. parents may again
cringe as they did in years gone
by, for St. Paul and Minneapolis
should again hear the roar in the
distance, the laughter and singing.
Only this time it will be University
students. For one solid week, no

LA ANAAANNAA " AAN n4Aeo
But Winters too scored an out
standing success in Mexico. His
baritone voice was so well-received
that he sang twice the number
Of concerts scheduled in that
country and was engaged for six
additional concerts three months
later. President Miguel Aleman
heard him and called for four
repeat renditions 70 "Ol Man
River"
Prior to her engagement for
Aida" Miss Davis had a unique
experience in Mexico city. Two
years earlier she stepped onto the
Belle Aries theater platform for
the first time in a song recital.
A mere handful Of concert goers
were in the audience. At intermis-
sion they rushed into the streets
crying tthe praises Of the new
find" When the soprano returned
to the stage the auditorium was
crammed to standing room ca
pacity.
The next days papers reported
"the most sensational and atomic
adventure fthe musical world"
Within a month Miss Davis gave
five concerts in the same theater,
each time to an SRO audience.
In presenting the concert stars,
the sponsoring group, the Schu-
bert club of st. Paul, announced
that they are giving the Twin
cities one Of the very first OPP
portunities to hear the duo in
concert.
Although Miss Davis has sung
with the Minneapolis symphony,
It will be her first appearance in
st. Paul and her first in the
Northwest as one of the famous
duo.
