TWO MEDFOHD (OHEGON) MAIL TRIBUNE
Traveler Leaves
To Arrive Home
(Mn I E. RVhtilfr. .Mrftord trav
fvpral ett in Europe and is nw n
hr la&t fw dav in the Italian capital,
(on Ui September.)
Rome The Roman holiday is
ended, and I felt like Graham
McNamara, who, in his trave
logues, so often has regretted
mcllifulously, that "we must
leave this land of enchantment.
Yc'erday I went to the Trevi
fountain to throw in the coin
wl ich will insure my return to
Rome. I trudged from there
through my favorite narrow.
crooked streets up to see a last
view from the stone benches
on piazza Venezia. I tramped
on up to my favorite ruins on
Palatine hill. In the afternoon,
a friend took me to see, for the
last time, the late summer sun
on the glorious fountain sprays
at Tivoli, and the afterglow
through the arches of Hadrian's
villa.
An then, in the enchantment
of evening on the Via Veneto,
we sat at Doney's for one last
drink of expresso coffee.
There it was that we reached
the peak of thrills of the day
the jackpot the apogee of won
ders. Across from us sat David
Niven and handsome, gray-haired
Stewart Granger. The two
of them were almost too much
to take at one time. I thought
my young friends (one from
Israel and one from Caracas)
were going to faint from such
unexpected good luck.
And it did seem, even to the
older girl, more exciting than
when we had seen Katharine
Hepburn, in characteristic eager
pose, in the self-same place. It
was even more so than seeing
Anna Magnani and Tennessee
Williams, strolling arm in arm
down the avenue between the
cafe tables Anna looking her
Tattoo Rose, unpolished and
scraggly-haired forty-year self.
She was wearing a red silk,
neither long nor short, accordion
plaited dress. Not so fat (not fat
at all, in fact) but with the
Italian girl's lush, undulating
walk which accentuates the lit
tle waist. Almost any day at
Doney's you may see familiar,
glamorous faces.
That was aj,l yesterday. Now,
It is lovely afternoon, some
where between Rome and Flor
. ence. This js the grape country.
The bunches of fruit hang in
heavy, graceful festoons from
one vine to another, all up and
down the country sides, inter
spersed with rich dome-like hay
stacks. Little railway stations
are clean and pretty with their
numerous flower beds and oc
casional fountains. It is so quiet
when we stop that I can hear
katydids and crickets.
And, after a harrowing de
parture from Rome. I am appre
ciating the calm. We had arrived
in plenty of time at the station
this morning. Although there
was a curious quiet, and people
were meandering instead of
rushing, we somehow didn't
realize anything was wrong. We
called a porter for the lusgace
and he said "No treno oggi."
No train today. Then we remem
bered the threatened strike. I
experienced mixed emotions. I
could stay loncer in Rome, but
gone would be my difficult to
get reservations and berth. I
checked my luggage and we sat
down on the platform terrace
for a cup of coffee to discuss
the emergency.
About five minutes later from
one of the loud speakers came
a spurt of Italian, the only word
of which I understood was
NO DIET

RELAX-A-CIZOR

Rome;
This Fall
ler. left Home rerentlv after ipendim
mate home. lr. Srhuler here recounl
. Mrs. scnuler expects to arrive in urc
"Milano." But that rang a men
tal bell. I would be going
through Milano to Copenhagen.
I jumped and ran as fast as I
could down the' endless terrace
to track 9. One thing I have
learned thoroughly in Italy
trains come when they say they
are going to. and leave on split
second schedule. I jumped into
a compartment, sent a porter
for the luggage: there was a
tiny whistle, and off we went.
I never did see my friends to
say good-bye.
A friendly soldier has explain
ed it. As he didn't speak Eng
lish, we conversed in German,
interspersed on my part with
a word or so of Spanish and
Italian, and plenty of gestures.
From him I learned that there
really are "no trains oggi." This
one is going because it is an
international train, and it is run
by the military police as far as
the Italian border. I get cold
all over thinking how nearly I
missed it.
One thing in Italy I don't
seem to have learned but
should have from numerous ex
periences. It is that although the
Italians are lovable, kindly and
eager to help one, they give out
the most inaccurate directions
in the world. If I had taken
that porter's word, literally, I
would still be in Rome.
Rome will be host for the
1960 Olympic games, the first
time in 2000 years. The Olym
pic games, according to tradi
tion, Hercules established with
the Gods themselves as partici
pants. With historic Rome as a back
drop, and monuments such as
the Colosseum and Circus Maxi
mus to be revived, it should
really be a heyday.
Mussolini had already built
a large exhibition grounds with
a stadium which will hold
100,000 people, and had beauti
fied a great area with parks,
statues and fountains.
Besides these, the Italians
plan to build new tennis courts
with 10,000 seating capacity.
The rowing and canoe races will
be at the Pope's summer resi
dence, on an extinct volcanic
crater lake. Sailing races will
take place in Naples.
It is planned to build Olym
pic villages on either side of
the Tiber, for the participants,
with villas for the women,
dormitories for men.
As to the exact date in the
summer, there is a question. In
August, everyone who lives in
Rome and can possibly leave
on holiday docs so because of
the heat. The organizers think
that would be an excellent time
for the games when people are
away sometime about August
15 to September 4.

The greater the turnover of
frozen foods in a home freezer,
the more economical its opera
tion will be on a per-pound basis.
One of the fixed costs obviously
is electricity to maintain a zero
degree temperature and this cost
continues whether the freezer
is nearly empty or full. Econo
mists say that it costs twice as
much per pound to store 360
pounds in a home freezer than
using 900 pounds of food from
the same freezer.
