SP 2-2230 GREETING CARDS FOR ALL OCCASIONS PRESCRIPTION SERVICE S I H GREEN STAMPS For years the society editor of The Mail Tribune" has been urging photographers to "take something new" in the way of wedding pictures when we had a page of these planned. Last week Carl Landis called up to report that he really had something new and different. He did, too, and the picture is. a part of today's front page layout.. It shows the attendants at the wedding of Nancy Conroy and Neil Murphy autographing the leg cast which the bride's mother, Mrs. Kirkebon McKinley, was forced to wear to the wedding -casts being what they are. This is about as different as wed ding pictures could be. The Paul Bulkins, back at Far Hills ranch after a trek to California, report that they not only watched the Bolshoi Ballet members dance, they danced with them. The Bulkins not only attended the opening night performance of "Gi selle" at the Opera house in S.F., but also the supper dance which followed at the Sheraton-Palace hotel given by the San Francisco Ballet guild. FB wrote to say that although she was somewhat dis appointed, in the first act of the program-long ballet, the second act was the traditionally beautiful "white ballet" (a phrase which we picked up from Pal Peg) with the low, bluish lights on the ballerina's white gowns. "Ulanova's talent technique and grace showed then," she wrote. "What a truly worthwhile experience. She was given a rising applause, and she and the troupe took curtain call after curtain call. "From 4he Opera house we went to the Sheraton-Palace hotel where the reception and supper to honor the Bolshoi troupe was given. There we saw Ulanova seated with Sol Hurok, the impressario responsible for bringing the ballet to this country, and with the directors and principals of the company, as well'fes SF's Mayor Christopher. . "Tables which bordered the ball room dance floor were reserved for the Bolshoi troupe and after supper, most every one mingled back and forth and participated in ball room dancing. The dancers, just as those of the Moiseyev group, were friendly, genial and took as much part in the event as everyone else. . "Ulanova was pale and plain, if not wane, in appearance, and it appeared that she was tired. Otherwise, the troupe members appeared as any young group, and mixed through were groups at tables made up of San Francisco ballet mem bers, and it was only in speaking to the different ones' that one could tell they were not of the Bolshoi. v "The Bolshoi troupe seemed to enjoy our popular dance orchestra but as the evening went on, there were those who interspersed the ball room dancing with 'gopak' numbers, with groups clustered around, furnishing the dancers with hand clapping accompaniment, lending the typical Russian touch. , ... . "After the orchestra which had furnished the dance music throughout the evening had left, pianists among the troupe played and the dancing and fun continued. Even there was community singing. It seemed the evening came all too suddenly to a close and that many of the troupe members would liked to have lingered, as many of us would like to have done. It truly was a happy experience and we only were sorry we could not return the next evening and do the whole thing over again." When the dancers were in Los Angeles, one columnist wrote that they might dance like Communists, but they spent money like capitalists. Since arriving in this country the Russians invested in various types of off-beat shoes, toreador pants, harlequin sunglasses and even such items as portable plastic swimming pools for children. Tatiana Smirnova, Rus sian-born American dancer who accompanied the group as an interpreter, said "They were mad to buy anything and everything." They all loved sports clothes; the men went in for suits of raw silk and multi-colored sweater shirts. The interpreter reported that one of the dancers ordered a Mercedes Benz from a Hollywood dealer for shipment from the factory in Germany to Moscow. Miss. Smirnova declared the dancers could afford everything they bought and added "They do make fabulous salaries. I heard that one of the men just bought an expensive home near Moscow on 15 years credit, and paid it off in two months. (Nowhere did we see any figures on salaries, but a member of the orchestra which played with the troupe in San Francisco said that Sol Hurok reportedly would lose money on his ballet venture, even though the SRO sign was out in every city. For one reason, American opera houses, such as the one in San Francisco, are much smaller than those in Russia and other European cities, with less seating capacity. It is said the dancers complained that the SF stage was so small it hamp ered their more spectacular numbers.) Another reporter wrote of the Russian s fascination with jazz music and said they bought a staggering amount of records, both popular and classical. He also said they were shrewd buyers, and dickered with storekeepers about lower ing prices when they bought in quantity - several of the men bought matching tuxedo suits on such a deal. . Members of the troupe loved Disneyland, and tried out all the rides. One dancer had the interpreter explain that she had just eaten the biggest hot dog in Hollywood. One thing which mystified the visitors was the television commercials. They were irritated with the interruption of the program, and couldn't understand why so many pills and medications were advertised when everyone in Holly wood looked so brown and healthy. They were amazed by the number of cars and one dancer said "there must be more cars than people. Where do they find the people to drive all these cars?" ' Hurok may be losing money, but apparently doesn't mind, for he has booked a Russian music and dance festival for this summer. The show, which opens in New York July 7 for two weeks, will be in San Francisco in early August. The New York advertisements say that dancers from the Bolshoi and Leningrad ballets, from the Ukrainian, Georgian,, Armenian and Uzbek folk ballet troupe, the 100-voice Piat- nitsky folk choir and a full symphony orchestra will provide the festival program. The SF show will be at the Cow Palace, so more tickets will be available than for the Bolshoi. O.S. 20 Years in Medford! RYAN'S DRY CLEANERS Points to consider when you have dry cleaning problems!
