Dear Marian:
The four performances of
the Metropolitan Opera com
pany were received with mix
ed emotions by the local music
critics and the audiences. We
enjoyed the one we saw on
the whole, although the lead
ing male role seemed lacking
In spirit and musical excel
lence. Rise Stevens was an
enticing Delilah, the ballet was
superb, and the chorus and
orchestra were more than
- adequate. The Shakespearean
evening was "tops" in every
respect. In modern dress,
without benefit of scenery or
props, the distinguished com
pany made the excerpts from
several plays live through true
Shakespearean interpretation.
A great treat and I hope It
tours your way. A' 'Washing
ton critic called it a "program
of exultant riches that stir
the soul." Can you blame me
for my less effusive but just
as sincere appreciation of a
, wonderful evening.
A former Oregonian, a
student at Willamette In 1939
and 1940, called this week.
Keith Roberts, . whose mother
lives at Arlington, and who is
completing his doctor's degee
at the University of North
Carolina recalled the days

tary of State's office while

Willamette, he spent five
years In the Army, then
finished hit college work at
East Tennessee University,
Pea body College, end now
North Carolina U. He has

Lee, enroute home to Port
land from Germany and who
has learned a new word, she
reports. When she went
broad she was "briefed" by
the State Department. On her
return, she was called in for
"debriefing." Robert Gros, of
San Francisco, a special friend
of Robert Letts Jones, and a
Salem visitor on several oc
casions, came in to interview
the Secretary and we chatted
of mutual friends. Other cal
lers included Leo Adler, Baker;
Charles H. Heltzel, Oregon
Public Utilities Commission

partment; Robert Warrens, of
Hillsboro, well known in
Salem; William W. Knight;

Oregon, dropped in for a chat
He is operating a hospital at
the Amphibious Base at Nor
folk. Mr. and Mrs. Mike Frey,

Today was Mrs. McKay's
birthday and by a coincidence
she was asked to pour at the
birthday anniversary tea of the
American Women s Press club.
Prior to the tea she was
interviewed on a USO radio
program and tomorrow she
will be on Hazel Market's
television show again. Hazel
Market, an ex-Oregonlan, was
a feature performer in the
show put on by the Women's
National Press club. The
women staged a similar type
of program as the annual
Gridiron which the newspaper
men sponsor, and tickets to
the women's banquet are as
coveted as to the Gridiron.
The President and Mrs. Elsen
hower, the Nixons and the
cabinet members and wives
were obviously amused by the
satire and comedy on political
affairs. ,
Following the Sam Coons'
party last night, we all went
to the Larry Smyths' new
apartment, where amidst a
few packing cases we gave
them a wee' bit of a house
warming. Marie had already
unpacked much of her beauti
ful glass and antiques and the
long ledge tinder the room-
wide window , was attractive.
Speaking -of, new apartments,

a lot of visiting . . . Featured
in h liuine room decorations

in the dining room was an
especially attractive one . . . j
The table had been extended;

making an effective back
ground for the silver service
and flowers ... The coffee

at the other was a massive
arrangement of white and
purple lilacs, tulips in varying
shades of pink and yellow,!
and pink rhododendrons in a
