Maids of Ancient Rome
Used Version of Valentine
By MARGARET RICHARDS
United Press Correspondent
Kansas City, Mo. (IP) The
maidens of ancient Rome
really started something when
they decorated their love
notes. If you have any doubts,
take a look at their modern
successors the coiormi val
entines that sweethearts the
country over will exchange
this February 14.
The Roman girls are said to
have fashioned the valentine's
forerunner by prettying up
their name cards, thereby
making them more attractive
to the local swains who drew
the cai " from an urn during
the pag. feast of Lupercalia.
The bovs then courted the
eirls whose names they had
drawn for the remainder of
the year, according to legend.
Sentimental
Through the intervening
centuries, the valentine has
hppome an imDortant mode of
romantic communication, with
emphasis on elegance and
beauty, as befits the occasion.
While some prefer a greet
ing with a humorous or witty
touch, the majority of Amer
cans still rely upon a truly
sentimental greeting, elegant
ly decked out, to make St.
Valentine's day, according to
one card manufacturer.
fTnlH and silver have been
used extensively on this year's
valentines, creating rich ac
cents for the traditional color
of red. One new card features
a scarlet rose and bud em
blazoned against a gold back
ground, the rose heavily coat
ed with a sparkling material.
The entire cover of another is
gold, with a heart-shaped
opening through which a bou
quet of beaded flowers
gleams.
Up To $5
Another includes a deli
cate gold chain that can be
used as a necklace by the re
cipient. The verse of the card,
which is addressed to "a spe
cial friend." declares that
"friendship is a golden chain,
a rare ana cnerisnea xokhi,
that binds two hearts together
in a bond that can t be broken
Truly fetching Is a series of
cards incorporating diminu
tive silk tapestries that make
charming keepsakes. The ta
pestries are woven with the
words "love," "sweetheart"
and the like.
Also eye-catching are the
greetings reproduced from
full-color photographs. Still
lifes of flowers and valentine
cards of the Victorian era are
given among the subjects
featured.
For those who want to com
bine a gift and a greeting, su
Der deluxe valentines rang
ing in cost up to $5 are avail
able. Handsome pieces of cos
tume lewelry often heart-
shaped brooches studded with
rhinestones accompany the
cards.

Callas Singing
Said "Stunning
New York OP) Prima
donna Maria Meneghini Callas
gave a sizzling demonstration
Thursday nieht of why opera
fans and opera managers put
up with her. . -
The fierv soDrano sang and
acted with stunning and sur
passing art the role of vio
lotta. the heroine of Verdi's
"La Traviata" at the Metro
politan Opera house. The
nuprflnw crowd responded
with applause and cheers that
drowned out the opening
strains when the curtain rose,
and called her back for 10
bows after the final curtain
descended.
Every seat was filled, the
standing room sections were
jammed, and a crowd of sev
eral hundred packed the side
walks outside, grumbling with
discontent over not being al
lowed to pay the steep prices
charged for the Milk Fund
benefit and get in to see and
hear her.
And opera fans who hold
Miss Callas in highest esteem
despite her high jinks were
rewarded with a breathtaking
ly believable performance;
she held the audience enrapt
from start to finish.
It was her first operatic ap
pearance since the great
fiasco in the Rome Opera
House January 3, when the
hot-headed Italian opera lov
ers rioted in the streets after
she refused to continue her
performance in "Norm a"
after the first act. It also was
Miss Callas' first perform
ance with pie Met this season.
There are 62 recognized
college level institutions of
learning in Michigan.
