SALLY GOES 'ARTY'
E
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 17. (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

10 WATCH LIGHTS
FRONT AND REAR
SALEM, Ore. (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. He said state officers
work under the handicap of poor co
operation from Justices of the peace.
"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."
