Music Trails
Concert Tonight
The third event of the current
Alaska Music Trail Concert series,
sponsored by the Kodiak Business
and Professional Women’s Club,
will present Aldo Parisot, cellist,
tonight at 8:15 pm in the Kodiak
High School Auditorium.
Opening the program in an
unusual way with Bach’s Prelude
for Cello Unaccompanied, Parisot
will then introduce two fascinating
works, Arpeggione Sonata by
Schubert and Sonata in G Major
by Breval, both in three move
ments.
Included in the second half of
the program will be the well
known and ever popular Concerto
in A Minor by Saint-Saens, and a
colorful group which will com
prise works by three Spanish com
posers, Intermezzo by Granados,
Sevilla by Albenz, and the Ritual
Fire Dance from the ballet
“L’Amour Sorcier” by de Falla.
Parisot plays with an intensity
that belies the easy going friend
liness and humor that character
izes his off stage personality. Well
read and well informed, he is as
interesting to talk to on such sub
jects as art, history and science,
as he is when discussing his
favorite topic - music. He speaks
fluent English, with only a trace
of lingering Brazilian accent. He
is married to the former Ellen
Lewis of Wilton, Conn., and they
have two sons, Aldo Luis, 4, and
Robert Peter, 2. He has made a
number of recording for Overton
and Counterpoint Records.
CHAMPION OF THE NEW LOOK i- Starlet Juli Reding, who
amply fills the tight-fitting gown at right, says she’s all in favor of
the new Paris fashion which she models at left in Hollywood. The
reason: “I couldn’t get a part in a movie until the House of Dior
made sack dresses.” Juli says before the advent of the sack style
movie producers told her they could cast her only in comedy
roles. Now, she says, she wears the saclf dress .to interviews—and
gets parts in the movies. ' (Oh Wirephoto)
Assisting Mr. Parisot at the
piano will be Lester Taylor, the
noted New York pianist, who
has recently completed a tour of
22 States.
A reception following the con
cert, will be held in the School
Cafeteria, to enable the public to
meet the artists.
Of This And That
John and Dorothy Chase return
ed to Kodiak a week ago Thursday
after spending several weeks in
the States. They spent some time
in San Francisco with their son
in-law and daughter, Boband Nell
Waage, and the Waage’s baby son,
who was born January 12 . . .
While in the sunny State of
California, the Chases’ called on a
few former residents of Kodiak
. . . they saw Leo and Jerry Sears
and sons, and Tom Silcox, in Santa
Barbara . . . Bud and Eleanor
Koch and family in Pomona . . .
Homer and Margaret Lightfoot in
Torrance and Mrs. Margaret Blood,
San Diego . . . Travelling by car,
John and Dorothy also visited
friends and relatives in Oregon,
Washington and Idaho. In Seattle
they called on Jack and Teddy
Healy . . .
The town must really be “going
to the dogs” these days ... we
have just heard of one dog that
has gone in for shoplifting . . .
seems he walked into the Kodiak
Outfitter’s and helped himself to
a pair of gloves . . . walked out
. . . only to return in a short
time for a second pair... re
sult: a phone call to the Police
Department for the dogcatcher!
Question . . . will he be tried for
larceny, holdup or burglary? And
who will try him . . . will it be a
case for the City Magistrate . . .
the ,U.S. Commissioner .,- .,o
it be a Eeclei&I ‘-Court j
Wonder if he wanted the gloves
for hihiself or had h^' b^ern train
ed . perhaps we ‘sffoiild* spbnd
some time training Duffy McDuff,
our Scottie . . . there are a num
ber of atficlqs that we could
use ...
Being well-mannered and polite
pays off, as one youngster recent
ly learned . . . Charles Goble was
the surprised recipient of three
tickets to the Orpheum Theatre
and a crisp, new dollar bill . . .
a gift from Orpheum manager
John Fletcher. “It is a pleasure
to see well behaved youngsters
come to the shows,’’ said Fletcher,
“and we feel that they should be
given recognition. Similar awards
will be given to girls and boys
from time to time” ... So, kids,
remember to say “Please” . . .
“Thank you” . . . and be polite at
home as well as in public . . .
YOU might be the next one
chosen . . . and a salute to John,
too, for his interest in the boys
and girls . . .
Along the above line, home
owners and gardeners, I am sure,
would appreciate a bit of thought
fulness on the part of grown-ups
as well as children ... it is ex
tremely annoying to have people
trespassing across one’s little bit
of ground and across the garden
. . . especially so when one has
plants and shrubs planted . . .
sometimes the plants can be killed
very easily . . . simply because
someone decided to save a few
steps by cutting across lots . . .
or the children decided to play
games in some one else’s yard,
rather than their own. Respect
for the property of others should
n’t be to hard to learn . . .
We don’t often envy anyone . . .
but we really do envy Cmdr. and
Mrs. Ralph Groom . . . Evelyn
left Thursday, and Ralph left Fri
day. for a whole week in that
heavenly place . . . San Francisco
. . . Ralph will be attending a
special Public Information Office
Conference, while Evelyn shops
(Oh, those wonderful San Fran
cisco stores) and enjoys the sights
. . . cable cars . . . Fishermen’s
Wharf . . . the corner flower
stands . .. the antique shops in
the little side streets . . . the
aroma of roasting coffee . . . the
happy looking people . . . but one
must stop remembering those
fascinating places . . . There will
be time, too, for a visit with their
son, Peter* who is attending Stan
ford University at Palto Alto . . .
a very, very happy trip to lucky
Ralph and Evelyn . . .
