Page Four. THE SALEMITE March 1, 1946. Evett Reveals Experiences Of N. Y. Trip By Kenneth Evett Xow York is like a vast contrap tion in which human beings are caught, once they enter the city, and which projects them through space, vertically, and horizontally, and m circles, at various tempos, for as long as they can take it. While being whirled around inside the contrap tion one is able to see wonderful sights and hear beautiful sounds, but it is always a relief to me to get out of the New York machine alive. It was even more agreable this time because I left winter in New York to find spring in North Carolina. Aside from the pleasures of see ing the New York ladies and 11k fabulous liats, and eating fine food and enjoying the lively air of a great city, I spent most of my time see ing friends, looking at pictures and hearing music. .. The musical aspect of my visit was made more interesting because my brother, who is a composer, and his teacher, Roy Harris, had come out from Colorado to hear performances of their works and to arrange for the commission and playing of others (the contract-making, contriving side of a musicians life.) On Saturday night I hoard Harris conduct the New ^ork Philharmonic in his new work, “Memories of a Child’s Sunday.” (This, by the way, will be broadcast by the Philhar monic next Sunday.) At an affair after the concert I heard more music by Harris—a one man performance of his latest symphony—a perfor mance in which he sings, whistle, waves his arms, and bangs on the floor in an effort to convey the full complex sounds of a symphony orchestra. Its a wild eye and ear experience, and in some ways more exciting than an actual performance. On the following day niy brother played all his latest works for me (Including material for a new Month ly Graham ballet), so I heard a lot of interesting modern music all told. ' ‘ I went to two big galleries, the Frick and the Museum of Modern Art. The Frick contains two beauti ful Rembrandts, a fine Piero della Francesca, Goyon, Cezanne, and many other examples of the great painters, as well as ro,om after room of Brucher’s pink cherubs and pretty ladies. The Frick has something for everyone. At the Museum of Modern Art, aside from the permanent collection of contemporary art, were exhibi tions of Weston’s photography, a scale model of a new cantilever con struction, and a South Sea Island show. The later was arranged to bring out the emotional impact of this primitive art. The objects, mashs, weapons, totems, sculpture, etc, were placed against a changing back ground of blue green, brown, and yellow green. It is a typical Modern Museum exhibition. All the tricks of color and lighting are used and the result is an impressive show. I had a good time in New York. I came in contact with stimulating ideas, sights, and sounds. Now I’m glad to be home and eager to turn Term Papers Can Be Fun NANCY CAELTON “Women—great!” was the remark of a famous visitor of Sister’s House, Lt. Jim Brannagan. One must consider many factors in this analysis of Great Women. An- Alyce Clewellite recently said, “'I love weddings.”! This seems to be a fact That everyone wants to back. 2 In a survey of all B.W.O.C.,3 and their features and factors, one is surprised to learn that only 32% percent believe.4 In fact (—or fea ture) Sarah Clark once spread a liberal amount of mentha latum on her toothbrush.5 Mary Frances KingU wishes with all Bill’s heart to own a cattle ranch in Texas. May her days be merry and bright, And may her sheep never bite.7 Great women occasionally do pe culiar things. To witness this spec tacle one needs only to get up at 8:20 every Wednesday and Friday and be down at the gymnasium at 8:30.S There women of all size and shape run backwards for a half hour.
