LOS ANGELES - amp
"Porgy and Bess" ran into criti-

lection was raised over some
scenes.
The management of the Los

forum. where the iolk opera
was presented. objected 10 some
Of the scenes as being TOO
sexY.
The management asked Robert
Breen, director and co-producer
of the show, TO tone down some
of the scenes. Breen, however,
refused To do this.
This show has played without
protest for ID years" Breen stat
ed.
The u. S. State Department
sponsored our European tour as
a cultural venture. Boston and
Philadelphia didn't object, and
it's iron.c that our first criticism
should come from Hollywood, of
all places"
Breen refused after comforting

Ancient Sandal
Setting Style

A perfectly preserved 5000
year-old leather sandal found in
the recently unearthed funeral
ship of Egyptian King Cheops is
sparkling a fashion trend you'll
be hearing a great deal about in
the months TO come.
The Cheops footgsar--a crude
but amazingly durable piece OF
leather--has proved an inspira-
ton 10 Amsricn shoe designers
ana stYlisis. who predict that
Egyptian motifs and colors will
soon be adjoining miladY's feet.
The rough-hewn Egyptian san
dial is as different from today's
stylish leather footwear as the
ancient desert sled of Cheops'
time is from the modern globe
circling stratoliner.
But the discovery certainly
points up the fact that leather
old as man. yet.ever new-links
the civilizations OF 5000 B. {.
and 1854 A. ID.
Cheops would be a surprised
Pharoah indeed If he could see
the supple, multi-colored feathers
that are available in sandals
nowadays. The feathers Of Cheops'
era were good, but they were
an expensive luxury.
In America today leather is a
luxury within the reach of all
Here combination Of modern
science and the age-old art OF
tanning produce feathers in 2li
hues and in a greater variety OF
finishes and textures than Cheops'
royal tanners ever dreamed of.
