Twentieth Anniversary This season Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo celebrates its 20th anniversary in America. Many changes have taken place in the theatrical world in the laot 20 years and Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo has kept up with the times. Twenty years ago there were only a few American4born pro fessional ballet dancers. Today only 10 of the company's mem bers are foreign,born and nearly all of those are United States citizens. Twenty years ago the trend in ballet decor was toward heavy, massive scenery. Today the scenery is lighter and emphasizes Seems. Herd.

Although in theatre itself, generally speaking, sen ery has a tendency to disapear and the one-set now Is the most popular, The Ballet Ruse. de Monte Carlo still has a great many productions which display a grandeur of scenic effect. Prima Ballerina The Prima Ballerina of the Ballet Russe de Monte 0arlo this season is Nina Novak, a leading artist of the Ballet Rusee de Monte Carlo for the past eight years. Born in Warsaw, Poland, she had her early training there. At the age of eight, she entered the Warsaw Opera Ballet School and was the ballerina of the Warsaw Opera when World War II broke out. One of the most beautiful bal lerinas on the contemporary scene, Miss Novak has the great est opportunity to display her unusual strong technique and dramatic ability in ballets that demand a full range of talent and her parts include all of the lead ing roles in the 'Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo repertoire. Unlike most ballerinas, Miss Novak is also a choreographer. Two Hopes Fulfilled Nina Novak has attained her the two things ithat she has hoped and worked for all her life. First of all to become Prima Ballerina of the Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo and to become a citizen of the United States. George Zoritch, the Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo's premier danseur, first joined the com pany at its inception in 1938. He played with the company for five t seasons then he accepted engage -ments to -perform with several other famous ballet companies c and concert groups in North and .South America and in Europe. Last season Mr. Zoritch rejoined the company. Columbians will have the d chance of seeing Nina Novak and 0 George Zoritch along with many others tomorrow night at the Township Auditorium. 9 S IV il t stec vor I ste! y e 'p You can light either endi ele twar,underd oh iahu euarujboowj M i STI Dr. Havilah Babcock exami Poet Laureate, novelist and shor McKisaick Library.

Old Gus ones of the "Ozark Weekly News", irculation 150, told me this as I tarted on a journalistic career: Ed, (Gus was very nearsighted nd often mistook me for Ed ,tickle) if you are going to write, o one of two things: either write n sex or how-to-do-it-yourself. lever both." Since the editor frowns on the ormer-at least in writing, I hall stick to the latter. Anyway, ather round while I give you the traight scoop on "How to be a uccessful 0olumnist." First Be vague. The really erudite ensman does not come to gripa rith a srbject-he skirts around . Never succumb to the tempta ion of a direct solution. This is List not done. Besides, vagueness overs up if you aren't sure of the roblem yourself. Second Sound impressive. Big words are people. Let them know who's oss from the start; make them .ork to read and they'll appreciate our efforts more. Veiled refer neces to Aristotle, Plato, Hegel, nd Max Schulman aleways go over ig. Third Use symbols. This is the test t a really good writer. Throw in ni obvious Freudian clue or two, 'is will attract the intellectuals nd insure your success. One of 'ue best devices you'll find is the accession of dots . . . leave your brases hanging in mid-air. The case of the typing p that erased withc EATON'S CORI Typewri It's a cinch to "rub out'l typing errors and leave no "clues", when you use Eaton's Corrisable Bond Paper. Never smears, never smudges--because Corrasable's like-magic sur face .. . erases teithiout a trace! (A flick of the wrist and a pencil eraser puts things right!) This fine quality bond paper gives a handsome appearance to all your work. It's a perfect crime not to use it!

Jesse Sti re' Symposium to be conducted at ll' The H One of the most effective writers of the "Ozark Weekly News" used this in his weekly edition of "I Smell The Hog-Pen in Fifty Ways." All of his appeal was lost, though, when the people found out that he was actually writing the whole paper using different names for each page. The most important thing is: Don't explain your symbols! Not to anybody. If someone asks: "Whazzit mean?" or "Would you like a -punch in the face?" merely ,blink behind your sunglasses and utter wise sayings like: "Mack rel's backs and Mari's tails make lofty ships carry low sails." You will then be established as a pro found writer and will be lionized by society. Fourth If you can't be profound . . . be technical. In this modern age, little ,bits of wisdom telling "how to make your own de-lousing ma chine," or "establishing the rela tive merits of gartbage systems," are greatly appreciated.

Final Touches If you follow these four basic rules, you will have no trouble establishing y-ourself as a writer, but don't forget to look like a writer. This is important. Carry a gross of pencils with you, use the jargon of the trade like: "Dummy," "proofs," "mats," "ro togravure"-or, best of all, carry a camera with you wherever you go. Ink-stained fingers help a great deal. Above all, be controversial. Don't be afraid to take a stand on issues. Today's public demands their writ ers be honest and penetrating. Let the people know where you stand on such cruelties as: "The addi tion of chlorine to Goldfish's water," or really important issues like "Will Dewey seek the Repub lican nomination'?" Quickly now, go to your type writer, you've just got time to make the next issue of the "Game cock."
