We will not repeat them here.
Those interested can get all the infor-
nation they need by referring to bro. Ra-
dy's article, which we have seen fit to fea-
ture on the English Sections front page.
We are so obsessed with bro. Rady's
scholarship Foundation Kitty Night idea
that we would go him one better.
Why not carry the idea over to the So
ciety's upconing Natl Tenpin, Duckpin,
and Five Pin Tournaments - plus the Wis
consin, Montana, California, and other State
Journeys - and give the Scholarship Foun-
dation, Inc pin-shot in the arm which
could recur annually?
True, these annual classics are run with
precision and time may not allow for the
application of bro. Rady's 10 suggestions
to the setup of these tournaments.
Why not, then, an appeal to every po-
tential adult tourney bowler in the United
States and Canada for an outright contri-
button of just S1OO to the funds of the
Scholarship Foundation, Inc?
On the other hand, perhaps someone
here or across the border can come up with
better suggestions than those made today
by bro. Rady and the English Editor.
If so we will be only too glad to give
them an airing on these pages.
The line forms at the right!

was fair to ask the students
to give up their only vacation

The students and parents
were consulted and the
vote in the affirmative was
unanimous.

Somehow it seems to pull the
whole thing together for them" "
Fashion Show Draws
Outside again the blare Of
Iloudspeakers announcing the
beginning of the fashion show
of erikanski model"
brought the crowd Surging
around an open stage. Already
ION stage, a half dozen photog-
raphers were busily swapping
pictures with Polaroid cameras
and passing out the results to
the clamorouS subjects.
At that moment, the manager
of the Polaroid exhibit, Helen
Waschuck, was having a loud
argument in Russian with a
man with stainless steel teeth.
The argument was resolved
when Miss Waschuck stepped
back and clicked her shutter.
"He was saying he wasn't
from Moscow and that I should
take his picture, she explained.
II tried to tell him that none
of these other people would be
back here either. But I'm Just
an old sap. 1 can't turn them
down. A few minutes ago we
took a picture of an old man"
Russians UncOnvinced
Some worrisome things have
developed in the course of the
first day Of the exhibit. At the
model home which Russian
Premier Khrushchev Scorned
as flimsy construction, many
other visitors are equally I'M
convinced that such a house
would be practical in Moscow's
sub-zero winters. The art ex-
hibit-like all such exhibits
everywhere - provokes out
spoken criticism from Russians
and Americans alike.
And yet after its opening
day few people can doubt that
it is an effective show that has
opened here. And perhaps even
one which can create a better
picture of Americans and
America than any number OF
speeches or state visits have
been able to do.
At least it is something which
the Russians have not seen
before. They keep asking why
there isn't more machinery on
display" says a young guide. 81
keep trying to make the point
that this is how we live not
lust how we plug things in and
make the wheels go round"
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1959-07-26

In front of the prepared bak-
ing displays the Russians
looked enviously at the cakes
and asked repeatedly for the
recipes. But there aren't any.
Most intensely questioned
were the Negro members Of the
corps of guides. The color ques-
ton is raised persistently.
Fred Willeford. a Negro
graduate of the Russian Insti-
tute at Columbia University in
New York, said: They are
awfully hard to reach"
He said the Russians always
looked startled when he told
them of Negro and white rela-
tionships either in the North
or in the South. Mainly the
Russians indicated they don't
understand how he happens to
be here. That is the same gen.
eral experience of the three
other Negro guides.
Book Question
The question of the books in
the exhibition library remains
unsettled. About 100 books
were taken of the racks of the
display after consultations
with the Russians. They are
stored in the Office of Harold
Mcclellan, fair manager.
Some books, mostly a group
in Russian, were simply order.
ed of the shelves by Russian
inspectors. Further conferences
are to be held. The complete
list of books involved has not
been given out.
The book display is one of
the most popular. perhaps next
to the color television exhibit.
Some of the books are disap-
pearing in the crowd but the
officials are not very unhappy
about that. Souvenir hunters"
was the explanation.
Newspapers Under Glass
At the request of the Rus
slams, American newspapers
we're moved off the open tables
and placed inside a glassed-in
room where they can be seen
but readers cannot touch them
on turn the pages.
The Russian censorship OF
the books was unexpected be-
cause officials felt they had
combed through them careful
ly themselves. The controversy
is reaching higher and higher
and probably has also reached
Vice President Nixon, although
he has made no comment On
it.
Attendance at the fair is lin
tied to $4,000 a day through
this weekend, while the guides
and police become accustomed
to handling the crowds. Later
it is expected to be stepped up
TO about 100000 a day, moved
through in three shifts. There
is no way of getting the crowds
to leave and the second and
third shows get awfully
damned.

Soviet worker after talking to

One person not overly con-
cerned about the ticket flap is
Harold Mcclellan. general
manager of the exhibit.
They had the same trou-
BILE about tickets for My Fair
Lady when it opened in New
York." said Mr.. Mcclellan hap
PLY. "And when the Bolshoi
was there I understand that
seats were selling for $25 or
$50 a piece"
Furthermore, Mr.. Mcclellan
has a commitment in writing
from the Russian authorities
that the final method Of dis
tributing the tickets will be
settled after a three-day ex-
perimental period.
1--WE originally planned to sell
100000 tickets a day and make
them available at the exhibit
entrance and downtown" he
explained. THE Russian S
warned me that we might have
a riot on our hands if we did
it that way. So we cut it down
to $4,000 until we learn how to
handle the crowd. I think
though that we will be able to
get most of the people in dur
ing the six weeks that the ex-
hibit will be open"
Russians Line Up
Standing at the entrance to
the huge gold geodesic dome
which houses the main exhibit,
Mr.. Mcclellan cast an expert
eye on the crowd of several
hundred waiting patiently to
get in.
I'D say they're going through
at the rate of 1000 or 5000 an
hour" he said. Care to go in
and have a look around?"
Inside the darkened building
cameras were projecting scenes
from American life on the cell
ing with bewildering rapidlty
One caught quick glimpses Of
rushing rivers, carrots in q
supermarket display, honky-
tonk singers and worShiping
families at a pace which seemed
inspired by experiments ir
subliminal advertising.

The tug Of war between Il
the fair continued. But one
thing was certain, The ,Ameri-
cans kitchen and household
equipment caught the eye Of
Russians. They filed up scores
deep at every viewpoint around
these exhibits. They looked at
the kitchen utensils, the cake
making, the dishes and the
shoes.
The Russians extended their
own trade fair almost within
throwing distance Of the Amer
lean fair. But early reports
said the American fair was
drawing by far the biggest
crowds,
On Side Road
The Russian extension Of
their trade fair was on side
road about 800 yards off the
avenue by which visitors APP
proach the American fair.
The Russian fair showed
among other things sputniks,
big farming equipment, auto
mobiles. shoes, motor cycles
and pictures.
Moscow Radio interviewed
two Russian engineers stand
ing beside one of the cars at
the American exhibit. Their
comments were not compli-
mentary.
The cars are too luxurious
and most likely very expen-
sive," one of the engineers said.
He added that the toys were
attractive but the exhibition in
general was nothing unusual.
Its just an ordinary ex-
hibit," he said. I'VE expected
much more"
Guide Quoted
The Russian radio questioner
quoted an unnamed American
guide as saying he could not
afford a car. or at any rate
not an expensive one such as
shown.
American Guide Andrew
Swatkovsky of New York had
q different version.
He said he was constantly
asked by the Russians why the
Americans didn't manufacture
a small, less expensive car. He
said he told them some were
coming out in the fall. But
the Russians asked him per-
sistently whether an American
workman could earn enough
money to buy an American
car.
The jam around the model
was so great it was almost i'm
possible to see it. The passage
way through the two rows of
exposed rooms is as wide as a
country lane. but going
through was a difficult process.
Everybody wanted to stop by
the kitchen and the blue bath
room.
How do you keep the vege-
tables so greene" was a re-
peated question in front of the
frozen food display.
