PAGE SIX THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE TUESDAY, MARCH 2, 1948 8 Rising Star on Musical Horizon Solveig Lunde Has Natural Charm Miss Solveig Lunde whose flying fingers fascinated her listeners at the Community Concert held in the Regent Theatre also charmed her audience with her modest and un. assuming manner. "At the music school I was considered something of a freak, she laughed, because I was mot completely submerged in music like everyone else there. Mu- sic is my work, but there are so many other things to enjoy that I would not want to exclude from my 1ife." It was a music teacher who dis. covered that she was "concert ma- terial" she explained. "I had a very normal childhood. I took music les. sons, but I hated to practise and it 'wasn't until I was about 16 that I knew what I wanted to do." Miss Lunde possesses perfect pitch which she claims is more of a disadvantage than an advantage. Quite often she said a piano is not in perfect pitch and when she plays a note expecting to hear a certain Porsonals ts. of social events and of See ettors to and from the city are appreciated by the Social Department TELEPHONE 33 Miss Solveig Lunde was a week- end guest at the Central Hotel.

The host and hostess were pleasantly surprised when on receiving their guests they were presented with many gifts for their new home. An enjoyable evening was spent playing games and Mrs, Henry. Wilkins, whose late husband was the founder of the mission in 1927, was a winner of one of the prizes. Lunch was served by the hostess, assisted by her mother, Mrs. Robert Moon, Mrs. W.

Wilkins offered prayer asking God's blessing on the family in their new hcme. sound, that is in her head, and the piano gives a slightly different sound, a struggle starts between ear, head and fingers. "Swing music is lots of fun, and maybe good relaxation but I would never play it professionally," she said, and relatéd the case of a mu. sic student who played Boogie fre- quently till the rhythm tainted all his playing. Now, although Le is a brilliant pianist, he cannot get a foothold in New York because the critics can still discern the pulse of swing in his playing. "Many of us think he would be better to give up the serious work and devote him. self to more unorthodox music," she said, Miss Lunde's home is in Califor- nia and she was greatly impressed witta the beautiful spectacle of the frosted trees on Sunday when she arrived. It is like something out of a fantasy," she said. After the con. cert she wag intrigued by the crowds gathering around a restau- rant radio to catch the last of the hockey game, "I can't understand a word he is saying,' she said of the announcer, "but he sounds terribly enthusiastic." She has never seen a hockey game. For her appearance in Oshawa Miss Lunde wore a bark-brown gown of chiffon velvet with a deep V neckline and long close sleeves. Two scroll motifs in golden sequins prightened the bodice which mould. ed her slim figure and the floor- length skirt had a slight train. As she sat at the piano with her long burnished gold hair falling about her shoulders she presented a charming picture as well as an in. spiring periormance. .

Customs Women Like Their Jobs Emerson, Man.--(CP)--Four Win. nipeg women, working as customs inspectors at the United States- Canada border town of Emerson, believe they have one of the most congenial jobs on record. They say the majority of people crossing the border do not try to smuggle ar- ticles across to the other side. "We've had no unpleasant expe- riences," says Mrs. Hazel Pringle, one of the four women. "I' have never had to search anyone, though the law says we may." Travellers are told of the regula. tions before they cross over, so they know before they come back, she explained. "Most of them are pa- triotic and co-operative." DOLLARS AND SENSE Ld Ld * L 2 gpruction of b £] bed European industries is still slow, and this R affects Canad..'s supoly of U.S. money.

The at- tendance of children ranging in age from tots to teen-agers is climbing steadily and Miss Ann Wilkes, the supervisor, has enlist- ed the help of senior students from the O0.C.V.I. The girls are particu- dicraft classes which include felt work, finger weaving; sewing, knit- ting, clay modelling and shell craft. There is alsb a glee club under the direction of Miss June Allchin of Bowmanville who comes from Bowmanville every Tuesday to play for the children. There are 23 pupils taking musie lessons at a nominal fee of 25 cents a lesson from advanced stu- dents. The one piano is standing up well although there is no music room and there is a waiting list of would-be pupils. The boys have enjoyed a good season of robust hockey under Mr. H. A. McNeill. They use the third floor and the garage for their ac- tivities which include boxing and wrestling and other manly hobbies. They have also produced a second edition of their own newspaper, which is entirely self-supporting. The boys' attendance in January was 1,358 and in February 1,271. Boys and girls alike are making full use of the library and an adult branch has now opened and is being well patronized. The librarian is Miss Betty Carkeek of the Oshawa Public Library. Besides the social work that is being 'done at Simcoe Hall the wel- fare committee is ever ready to answer calls for help from the needy. During the past month it has paid for medical care for an elder! y woman and supplied several pairs of glasses. Three complete layettes have been delivered and used bedding and clothing has been distribted in several! instances, With so much activity going on the building suffers some wear and tear and Mrs. E, V, Lander, chairman of the house committee, reported that the library floor needed. recovering and that better lighting was required in the loft where the boys do handiwork. Ven- etian blinds for the summer and a front porch for the winter would be appreciated and the kitchen is in need of being modernized. The kitchen is used for teaching the girls home economics and a kind friend has donated $100 toward its modernization. Simcoe Hall has many friends lueky cup, received a smal] gift. and it was gratifying to hear that the Badminton Club of Genera! Motors had sent in a cheque wit which to buy something that th children needed, A suggestion tha met with approval was the pur~ chase of a 'movie projector, which both boys and girls would enjoy. Another happy announcement was to the effect that the Kiwanis Club would take care of 100 children at their summer camp during two 14-day periods in the summer.
