(CP) Sally Hand came to town today and refused to pose for one of those pic tures showing crossed knees. "Why It would be Immodest,' said the girl whose fan dance set Chicago and New Yorlc agog because she wore nothing behind the fan. "On the stage." said Sally, "Ah I There It Is art, my art, my self-expression. The photographer persisted.. 8ally turned on him a withering look. "Say you," she said sharply, "every dame that gets off a liner, a train, an airplane, a bicycle, or has a baby, or shoots her husband has to pose for pictures with her legs crossed. "I'm not going to and that's final. So what?" Sally, here for a theater engage ment, said nudism Is "vulgar." Piano Prodigy of Eight, Calm During N. Y. Debut By JOHN 8ELBY. Ruth Schlenezyskl, 8, while practic ing for her first New York appear ance as a pianist, amazed critics with her playing of difficult concert music. NEW YORK (AP) YOU might call her a prodigy, but anyone who saw Ruth Schlencayskl as she pre pared for her New York debut would agree that there's nothing "hot house" about her. Eight-year-old Ruth, with four years of piano playing behind her. waa unaffected by the possibility that her metropolitan appearance November 13 might be the sensation of the musical season. She has been through Buch experiences before. Ruth has played two recitals in California, both four years ago. She has given a Berlin recital and a Paris recital and has played three times In Paris with orchestra. The Berlin recital, given when she was 6, broke Into cable dispatches; the Paris performance produced of fers of concert tours throughout Prance, Holland, Belgium and Spain, all of which were refused. Father Is Only Teacher. I will not have a pitiful little worn out girl, dragging about the country playing recitals at 8 years of age," says her father, Josef Schle nezyskl, who, although a violinist, is Ruth's only teacher. The child Is In the United States for a limited num ber of appearances, after which she will return to her mother and two sisters In Paris for more study. Ruth, at her present far from ad vanced age and with a hand that barely stretches an octave, plays mu sic that gives adult concert pianists pause. The other afternoon, for ex ample, she played the Bach "Chro matic Fantasy and Fugue," the Liszt "La Campanella," Weber's "Rondo Brill lan te." a Schubert Impromptu, a Mendelssohn "Song Without Words" and a concert study of her own com position. Plays With Master Touch. She does not play like a child, but with a curious Insight that recalls only one other performer of her age. the young violinist Yehudl Menu hin when he was first heard In this country. The extremely difficult right hand part of "La Campanella," upon which many a mature pianist has gone to pieces, she managed with ease. "But that's Just an encore piece," said Ruth. Ruth does not like dolls, she says, and until recently she was afraid of dogs. She's not afraid now. The only thing she can cook Is scrambled eggs. She has never gone to school; in stead she has had private teachers. Although she has not been back to see her home In Berkeley, Cal., since she left four years ago. she remem bers it and Is eager to see it again. Is Husky Prodigy. Physically she is utterly unlike the accepted picture of the musical prod igy. She Is a sturdy little figure at tne piano, with stocky, little-girl legs, a very fair skin, a face with traces of the Slavic breadth in it and eyes inac twinkle engagingly. In order to reach the pedals she i E.UTW SLENCZY5KI 5 and JO Heiress Throws Party For Blueblood Hubby NEW YORK, Nov. 16.

(UP) Motorists were warned today by State Superinten dent of Police Charles P. Pray to In spect front and rear ltghta frequently , to avoid accidents and possible arrest. "State police have been Instructed to Increase their vigilance for viola tors of motor laws, especially those pertaining to lights," Pray said. "Foggy weather, wet, slippery roads and other weather hazards make it Imperative that motorists strictly obey laws. My men have been noti fied to enforce all rules. "During September state . police halted 2400 machines which had only one headlight burning and 4800 mo. torlsts were stopped because their automobiles had some lighting de fects." Pray said that the number of viola tors Increased sharply during October and that further gains were expected this month.

"My men frequently arrest a fla grant violator, only to discover that the Justices refuse to fine htm, or levy only a 50 cent or 1 fine," said the police superintendent. "The number of motorists who op erate machines equipped with faulty brakes and Improper lights la alarm ingly large, especially In the moun tainous regions. Reports received here indicate many machines are seen nightly operating with only one, and in many cases with no headlights while crossing the Slsklyous." 1IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIH Inaugurating an event that will never occur more than twice in one H H year.
