By ETHEIYN IVANS Vmi-Vidi By MARGARET SCHULER Roma - Almost everyday, at the little kiosk at the cor ner, I find a new book about Rome; impressions and de scriptions by some person or other, each with a different angle, viewpoint and ap proach. Summing them all up they add to the fact that Rome is. tops. Many Chamberlain wrote the one I wish I had thought about writing, and had been as clever as she is, to do it in the same way. Many Chamberlain is an American from Indiana who came to stay in Rome for three months, and has been here ever since - three years, She knew all roads lead to Dnmc. so. that eliminated her hnorriinff the wrong train. &ne knew that to endear herself to the Romans, socially, she simply had to do as tne no. mans do. . 1 she had a list of "great eat ing places," given her by well heeled friends, and a list of wonderful little restaurants given her by tightwaa, low budget friends. She had stored away in a cellar corner of her mind several Latin declensions and the first line of Julius Caesar to keep her in touch with the language. Faithful to custom, sne watched the sunset on ner first day from the Villa Bor- ohese on the Pincla. li iook Rome exactly 24 hours to re duce her to a state of convic tion that any thing seemca possible. "Dear rrienas pna Romans," to those who know Rome, is alive and poignantly real. She writes what all of us see, but cannot quite ex press, with understanaing aim love, and sympathy and hu mor. . ..u shp avs. for example, me air splits with racket of racing engines, unmuffled exhausts, outlawed horns, whining rub ber, the cries of venders of i.,u mnn ann nrooms: "c pavement groans and trembles beneath tne traces ui r.i.aterl trams, of autobuses an1 nnfnmnbiles." oh -- ... . ; a. u,b unocxea to un cover that Rome is lull of tiiians. The Rome she had had in mind was a solemn mu seum, maintained by Just enough native personnel to keep it functioning for the .,.rit trade. To her delight and amazement the Rome that is, is a perpetual lcsuvai m melodrama ana comcu j, against the magic background created by ancestral saints and sinners. About the home, "Home to the Italian is roughly what the lair la to the lion. It is a place to sleep, and to take refuge from the rain; It is where the dresses are washed, the shoes get shlned and the suits pressed. Home is a place to go out from, on one dozen pretexts, three dozen times a day, weather permitting, and Rome weather is gentle." On time, she says, "visitors to Rome monotonously ob serve that Italians have no sense of time,, and It la true that they do not feel It tick ing away at them, and atirring up a mess in the cauldrons of guilt. But to deduce from that, that Italians do not value time is the greatest error.' There is a 'time' honored saying which translated means 'Who works, loses precious time!" It hangs on many a wall of Roman houses as a reminder." From the intricacies of pay ing the light and telephone bill, the problems of buying in Rome, of bargaining, of holiday times, to incidents which happen - all is as though it is a diary of every one who comes to Rome to live. And I might Mary Chamberlain and pretty. Tudor guild served its an nual dinner or the 1963 Oregon Shakespearean Festi val season in Ashland to more than 200. Producer Angus Bowmcr and Mrs. Bowmer and General Manager William Patton and Mrs. Patton joined association members, direc tors, staff, technicians, and all the company of young actors. This is always the first get acquainted, social affair of each season. The dinner is also by way of being congratula tory for those who received the acting parts they had sought and consolation for those who were disappointed Mrs. Richard Gray, general dinner chairman, Mrs. Elliott MacCracken, president of the guild, Robertson Collins, son of Rogue Manor's Earl Col lins, and Angus Bowmer, him self, offered cordial and inter esting greetings. However, the outstanding and absolutely in credible feature of the pro gram was Mrs. Bowmer-sans notes or lists or help of any kind - introducing the entire staff and company, recogniz ing each and remembering the correct names, where he or she was from, and the proper college affiliation. She had met most of them about one week before the dinner. Mr. and Mrs. Richard Gray, Mr. and Mrs. W. B. Windt, Mr, and Mrs. Hugh Simpson, Mr, and Mrs. R. M. Evans and Mrs C. Rcase Braley served on the welcoming committee. Stage Manager Fred Chapman and family and Miss Cecil Berry from Vancouver, B.C., were at our table. Miss Berry was jub ilant as she had been cast in two coveted parts. Mrs. Braley flew back from the East just in time for the dinner. She had spent three weeks visiting a brother In Washington, D.C., another brother in New York City, and had attended her class re union at Smith College, North ampton, Mass. Mrs. Charles Davis was another Manor guild member who attended and helped with the dinner. A full bus load of our mem- i bers has returned from a I thoroughly enjoyable two-day j trip to the Oregon coast, stop-1 ping overnight in Coos Bay. I The weather was somewhat cooperative, they report, and they saw many, many beauti ful flowers, as well as the broad Pacific, which was the principal object of the trip. A full-fledged exodus is in process on this Hill. At our side door each morning there is a small traffic jam of cars loading up for the take-off, while from the front entrance members whiz off in taxicabs for the bus stations and the airport. Mr. and Mrs. O. M. Ander son, having taken a motor trip over the new Rogers high way in Canada, have Infected about halt of the members with their enthusiasm. Mr. and Mrs. Ted Coates, the Ray Ncptuncs and Mrs. Charles Davis, who Is sharing her Thunderbird with Miss Irma Barnes, Dr. Edith Robb and Mrs. F. M. Murdock, are leav ing this week for the selfsame trip. Mrs. Graham Foote is planning to take Mrs. Braley, Mrs. W. W. Howard and Miss Hazel Calblck in her car at a future date, and my husband has also succumbed and Insists upon starting out almost Im mediately. I, of course, gladly go along tor the "buggy ride." After all, it is now vacation time (or almost everyone; and for a long time this column will have to be on an irregular Sunday schedule. 1 plan to take along a few notes and my trusty, rusty, old Betsey (type writer) and something excit ing could come up en route, you know. Whenever I can mail a column back and Ye Editor of the Women's Section of the M. T. can manage to wedge it in, I do hope you tind it. Bye now!

Papa," the name most youngsters called their la thers SO years ago, has all but disappeared from Ameri can usage, researchers at Hall mark cards report. "Pa" and 'paw" also are rare nowa days. The greeting card firm s survey Indicates that the mod ern father is most frequently identified as "daddy' until his children reach the age of 10 or 12. Then it's usually shortened to "dad" or "pop." But If he s identified as "father" when the children are very young, the name usually la retained even after they are grown and have youngsters of their own.
