IN
ONE
EAR
BY Maurice Duke

1t is true we did not ask to be
born. And yet some of us go
through life with that as an ex-
cuse for our shortcomings. Many
of us forget that when a star sets
on a dull horizon it is not ex-
tinguished, but that it goes on to
shine in other skys. We always fall
back on that same old insipid ex-
cuse, that because we did not ask
to be born, the world owes us a
living.
The world owes us nothing but
a place to rest our weary bones
at journeys end. Everything we get
out Of life we must fight for. There
is nothing free. And If we are in
jured in one Of life's never ending
battles, we must say to our self:
IT am wounded but not slain,
will lie down and bleed awhile,
and rise up to fight again"
We must always remember life
in its self Is as tedious as a twice
told tale, veSing the dul ear Of
a drowsy man.

THE WEEK IN
RECORDS
BY Albert Anderson
Choice Items

Some of the choicest items cur
rently on records are reviewed in
the column this week. Covering a
wide range Of subject matter, the
fare includes modern jazz show
piece, a torrid drum session, an
ALTAR recording and a record of
organ melodies.
Going into details, this is the
way the fare appears from this
viewpoint:
Explorations" - Riverside
stereo). The Bill Evans Trio, with
Evans on piano; Scott LaFaro,
bass, and Paul Mouan, drums.
Tunes: Israel" Haunted Heart, :"
Beautiful Love" and Elsa" Side
2: Maids" How Deep Is the
Ocean," It wish I Knew" and
Sweet And Lovely"
After working with such top
flight modern jazz artists as trum-
pet star Miles Davis and alto sax
virtuoso "Cannonbal' Adderley,
Evans is well qualified to put his
inventive mind to work in explor-
ing some of the intricacies Of jazz
. And one does not have to look
hard at the fare to see how much
he has explored Only two of
the tunes on the LIP are standards;
the others are all origs that seem
especially suited for the trio. d.
But what makes this record good
listening. is the way the trio treats
the material - smooth at times;
jazzy where required, but always
delightful. A fine buy,
"Gretsch drum night at bird
land" (Roulette-Birdland Ser
ies). Featured: Art Blakey, phil
ly" Joe Jones, Charles Persip and
Elvin Jones.
If you like drum solos with
Wgor and drive but with sense and
direction, you'll dig this LIP of
four Of the top skinner in the
business. -.
Side A features Elvin Jones,
Persip and "Philly" Joe in the
Miles Davis offering, Tune Up"
with running commentary by Blak-
ey Blakey takes over on Side
B and is aided and abbetted by
Elvin Jones and Persip Apart
from the fine rhythm and gusto
which these drum sessions provide,
this LIP is essentially one Of con-
trasting style . But this very
fact makes the disc stand out
Again, If you like drum music,
this record is tops.
The Most, Vol "" - Roulette
All Star Recording, featuring
Count Basic and orch; Sarah
Billy Eckstine, Joe Will

Notes & Joffinqs
BY JOSIE JOHNSON
Publicity Chairman


The nationwide NAACP men,
bership goal Is set for 100000
members between April and June
80, 1861. The national office has
asked all branches to fulfill their
quotas.
Cato McKinnie, membership
chairman Of the local drive urges
we make the month of May a per-
iod of "ALL-OUT" activity in sec
uring members.
The chairman stated that the
entire country is aroused by the
NAACP's Operation Mississippi.
Now is the time to translate this
interest into tangible membership
and financial support" says Nc
Kinnie.
Recently Clarence Smith, div-
sion leader No. 1 visited Sioux
Falls, SD. In a short time Smith
had secured five memberships
from Sioux Falls residents by tell
ing an interested group about the
need Of the NAACP.
Division leader Mildred Moore
mo. p feels her division will make
quite an impressive record at the
first report meeting May 4.
In fact she seems quite detirm-
ined in her aim to upset her oppon-
ent, Division Leader Clarence
Smith.
Over $500 membership blanks
have been distributed to the COM
munity and we are hoping to get a
full return for them. There Is still
a need for more workers. Please
contact Clarence Smith or Mrs.
Mildred Moore if you can help in
any way.

Skirts
Come
Down
BY LOUISE HICKMAN

@1SSSSAosSN @ASSo GoSAASA "AAsSA
FLORENCE, Italy, July 20
(AP).-The competing hus-
band-and-wife fashion team
of Fabiani and Simonetta
made the buyers and fashion
writers sit up at their Pitt
Palace showings by lengthen-
ing skirts.
Fabiani's were longer-to
about five inches below the
knee-and therefore caused
more stir. No one indicated
any mad desire to wear them,
but everyone was talking
about them.
In Fabiani's fall and win
ter collection. waists were
high and sometimes belted
loosely just under the bosom.
Jackets were short, skirts a
long controlled flare and the
exceptionally interesting col
lars were high and stood up
and away from the neck.
Higher still, up under the
chin, were fur and fabric fill
ms under jacket and coat
collars. Sleeves were wide
kimonoS, sometimes set in
and sometimes raglan. Hats
had high domed crowns, wide
flat brims, and were worn
straight.
Favorite fabrics were soft
woods and wool and silk mate
lasSeS.
For evening Fabiani showed
long, cross-over capes in soft
hammered chiffons that COM
pletely enveloped high
wasted gowns with long soft
skirts. In sitter brocades and
satins, skirts were ankle
length or about four inches
above.
Simonetta heightened day.
time skirts only to about
rnidcalf. AS in most other
Italian collections this year
ensembles of dress and jacket
or dress and coat dominated.
Coats were high-waisted
redingotes and suit jackets
were crisp, flared little rid
ing jackets.
The line was rigid and
high bosomed with waist
well indicated but away
from the body. Shoulders
and sleeves were narrow, COL
lars small. Dresses and coats
often had loose backs with
pleats up to the shoulder
blades.
Simonetta's famous capes
were in seven-eighths length
over close-b o som ed little
princess coats.
For cocktail, she showed
some slim crepe dresses with
shoulder-tied capes covering
only one arm.
On two-piece evening cos
tunes with the crisp flared
top were jewels in grape
punches and fabric bubbles
just under the high bosom.
She achieved some interest
ing textures with crinkled
tulle and horizontally ira
nto-stitched gold lame.
Canessa'S hats for the ST.
nonetta collection featured
the dented-crown caps with
turned-up, pasted flat buns
that are classic for Russian
winters. These were worn at
an angle.
