Muzzioli has studios in Eagle Point and Grants Pass, as well as Medford. The Grants Pass studio was opened last year. Muzzioli started playing the accordion when he was five, studying accordion under Pietro Deiro in New York, Salvatore Gulizia sin Boston and Frank Gaviani. He was featured in Shep Fields "Rip pling Rythm" orchestra, and toured the country, Canada and Mexico in concerts. He also was featured on coast-to-coast television shows prior to coming to Medford. Dinner The "Eagles membership 'dinner, will be held at the Eagles hall, Friday, May 2, at 6:30 p.m. All members are invited to attend. Cho) for 7 fS 0 vM IP jpun ir it i "Our biz tour of Europe is over" wrote the Army wife in her last letter, and from there went on for several pages, the longest letter, in fact, since her arrival in Berlin. The two had left Berlin March 20, and spent a three weeks leave traveling. We left Berlin Thursday rived in Frankfort early Friday morning. We had a couple of hours before our train left, so we had breakfast at an EES snack bar across the street from the Hauptbahnhof. Our train for Heidelberg left shortly after 8, and we ar rived there about 9:30: Kenny knew his way around a little from having been there last June, so we had no trouble find ing things. We found a room in a pension, and spent the rest of the day walking around taking pictures. (Our pictures are all developed except for the last roll, which still has three to go on it, and they turned out very well.) The next day we went on to ,Munchen, and took a room in a small hotel near the Hauptbahnhcf. It was recommend ed in the guidebook we bought just before leaving Berlin, which tells "How to See Europe on S5 a Day." (It can be done, too!) We didn't do a lot of sightseeing in Munchen, because it was snowing, but we did take a few pictures. For dinner that night we had Chateaubriand at the Ratskeller. The price of the meal, including wine, was 16 DM, or just under $4. (Ratskeller is the named used for a restaurant found in the basement of the local courthouse. The food served in Ratskellers is usually, very good, because it is a city showplace, and the city officials eat there.) Then we went on to the Munchner Hofbrauhaus, which is the largest beer hall in Europe. It covers a block and is four stories tall. The atmosphere is a very casual one, but, like most Ger man beer halls, quite respectable. The people- were very friendly, and we had quite a conversation with those at our table. Each table holds about 10 people, and the place was packed early in the evening. There was a small Bavarian orchestra which played drinking songs, including one which was written for the Hofbrauhaus and is sung all over Ger many. We left for Salzburg the next morning on the eastbound Orient Express. (Sorry, no spies.) Salzburg was the only place where we indulged in a room with bath, and we had a very nice one for less than $4. In Salzburg we climbed up the hill to the fortress which overlooks the town, and also cated in the apartment where Mozart was born. The museum contains family portraits, original manuscripts, family jewel ry, letters, and some of the instruments which Mozart owned during his lifetime. A plaque on the wall indicates, the corner where his cradle is said to have stood. On the train to Innsbruck the next day we saw a good deal of the famed Alpine scenery, and we went through sev eral mountain tunnels, one of which runs almost the whole distance between two small towns. We took some pictures through the train window, which turned out quite well. Inns bruck is surrounded by tall didn't impress us much. I think perhaps we were there, at the wrong time of year. The train to Zurich the next day was very crowded, and we were fortunate to find seats. Most second class carriages in Europe put eight people to partment was full a good part of the journey. It turned out that a young man in the compartment spoke English, and so we talked to him during most of the trip. He was a French medical student returning to Paris from a skiing holiday in Austria, and he and Kenny became quite good friends. They exchanged pipe tobacco, and eventually got into a game of chess, which the Frenchman won. We didn't stop in Zurich, but got right on a train for Luzern, about an hour's ride from Zurich. Of the countries we saw, Switzerland was obviously the most prosperous. One can sense in the very atmosphere that there have been no wars in Switzerland for many years. Although there is a definite effort made to preserve the medieval style of the old cities, the outskirts are full of modern buildings.- We found Luzern to be a? very charming place and ended up staying an extra day. The the river which empties out several bridges, both ancient ter. And the water is covered with swans and saucy little black ducks with white heads. If Bill Patton wants a swan for Lithia park, he should write to Luzern. They even had a few black swans, some imported ducks, and something called a Singschwan (aren't trumpeter swans extinct?) in large cages built in the water. Kenny and I spent a good ping, and were astounded at I have never seen so many different styles of watches in my life. Watches in cigarette lighters, on rings, on cuff links, made up as lockets; in fact, just about anything you can imagine can be found in the Get a Beautiful 5x7" Picture of Your Baby PIN-UPS compUtc-ly w af In dHfrtt pot . o but If yea wish you con 1.25 for Ti frrst, $ 1 fen r only 49.

We spent the next two days in Bern, the capital of Swit zerland. Of all the places I saw, Bern is the one I would like to visit again. As in other parts of Switzerland, it is a combi nation of old and new, with toe newer buildings going up mostly in the suburbs. There is a large modern department store about two blocks from the Parliament buildings which reminded us of B. Altman in New York. There were more things we both wanted to buy and couldn't, than in any other city we visited. One of the interesting things we no ticed about Bern is that, like Berlin, the bear is the city sym bol. But Bern has gone Berlin one better, in that they have a special bear pit housing several bears which is completely separate from the zoo. We watched them one morning, and they are awful hams. They dance, climb a tree, play with a barrel, and lie down and wave their feet in the air (just like Tippy) in order to get food from the spectators. As at the Bronx Zoo, special food is prepared for them and sold to the people who want to feed them so that they will not eat things which are not good for them. We noticed, too, that Bern has many museums, libraries and archives. Until we reached Switzerland, we kept our expenses down to less than $10 a day by carrying bread, cheese, salami and wine in the AWOL bag and declining to eat in the restaurant cars on the trains. And even in Switzer land, where we ate all our meals in restaurants, our living expenses were not much higher. I have a fairly accurate record of what we spent on the trip, although when we got to Paris and I came down with a cold, my good resolutions fell by the wayside and I have to figure our expenses from the amount of money we put into the currency of each country.
