He is a son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Whitlock, 1425 Crater Lake avenue, and is serving there with the Army as a dental technician. He is a brother of one of Miss Pat's dance students, Miss Sharon Whitlock, and he has just re turned to Nurnberg after' mak ing a tour of the continent while on leave. Mrs. Aldrich and Miss John son have visited most of the leading cities of the Scandina vian countries, Germany, Hol land, France, Spain, Portugal, North Africa and Italy. They were in the news July la in the Mail Tribune when they were in Casa Blinca during a major riot. The two arrived in the city just as the riot was get ting under way and were going for a stroll when they heard gunfire which they took to be the noise of firecrackers. When ' the moba which had collected began to surge and peo ple began to run for cover they realized they were in the midst of a riot and returned to the hotel where they had checked their luggage. They then board ed the first tram to leave tne city which turned out to b the last train to leave there for several days. The two women had plane re servations from Tangier to Ma drid,' Spain, so could leave ahead of hundreds of other per sons trying to .get out of the country. They pointed out in re cent letters they could have sold their reservations for any price. Mrs." Aldrich and Miss John son will return to Paris after leaving Nurnberg and then will fly to London, England, and also visit Ireland. They art scheduled to arrive in New York City later this month and Mrs. Aldrich ex pects to be home August 16. Miss Johnson will remain in New York for a 'week before going home to Yreka.

The public is invited. n Seats Are Free Everybody welcome audience. , Music was furnished by a 75-piece orchestra. Also while in Madrid they at tended a bull fight. A quotation from one of Mrs. Aldrich's let ters reads, "We inquired yester day about the bull fights and dis covered one of , the big ones would start in half an hour so we were off in another wild taxi dash. The taxis are very old cars and there are thousands of them. They go four abreast, or eight if they can crowd in, and from that point on its a crashing duel of fenders with no one stopping for anything until the destina tion. -After the fourth fender crash I knew we didn't have to worry about getting hurt. They blow each horn approximately 12 blasta per block so Madrid is rather noisy. (In Holland the steeple bells put us to sleep and in Spain its the auto horns.) They swear aloud with each move and everybody eventually gets there." "In watching the movies I've always felt sorry for the bulls and knew I'd never be able to endure the gory sight. But these Spanish people take this na tional sport more seriously .than anything I've ever known, in cluding American football and baseball. I've never seen such melodrama or how can I de scribe it? The grand parade and bravery and close calls with bulls, its magnificent color, ac tion . . . One bull came out and everyone took to cover including the bravest matador. The crowd began to get as ugly as the bull and we didn't know what to ex pect. But it was only that the crowd wanted the bull to live as he was braver than the mata dors.". "The Spain we saw is extremely different from the tourists' Spain. That has been true of all the countries we have been in. We've seen all the tour ist attractions, then we went be hind the pretty picture the tra vel books tell you about and we've learned so much more that way about how the people really live, and what they be lieve. I'm coming home to appre ciate what we really and truly have; we have a lot to be thank ful for." "We've seen women washing clothqs in ditches by the road side, working in the fields and tending goats, definitely lacking enough to eat. Our clothes are fingered by hundred women a day and we are still mystified by 'where are the other Ameri cans that are over here?' " In Lisbon, Portugal, however, she lists the items on their luncheon menu which included, "crawfish, all sorts of spiced fishes and- anchovies, tomatoes, cucumbers, salad, olives, salami, the first course. Next came fried fish; the third course home made noodles with Iamb, fresh lemon ade and fruit for dessert a whole basketful of figs, bananas, oranges, pears, peaches, plums and grapes." "While in Paris window shop ping, walking among beautifully dressed women with furs,; jewels and Christian Dior suits, we sud denly heard screams and war whoops and saw the entire street full of naked American Indians, which turned out to be a Paris Artists celebration, the same idea as the Grants Pass Cave Men. They attacked every wom an on the street regardless of jewels or furs and kissed and hugged them all. Yes, Karen and I got it too, you couldn't get away. Some women ran Into the stores and the Indians' ran after them. Karen and I had just had our dresses cleaned at $2.50 each and had just put them on that morning. We were grease paint all over., They ruined hun dreds of women's clothes all over Paris." While in Paris in addition to seeing the various tourist attrac tions including the Eiffel tower, and the Moulin Rouge, they at tended a performance of the Folies Bergiere. There they also met Jeanne Maire, French Bal lerina who appeared in one of Danny Kaye's recent pictures. Throughout the various coun tries the two visited dance stu dios and also studied dancing, making particular study of the native dances. . The two women remarked that they found our tourist public relations with Europeans could be improved and that Euro peans react to the seeming arro gance of many of the Americans touring the countries. However, the women said they found the people responsive to friendliness and fair treatment.
