Odd Bits
By B. A.
Of Skates
In two _short seasons the local
figure" skating association has
managed' to incorporate into town
life p, fine form or creative ex-
pression ---and with it an annual
evening of top entertainment.
This year's skating carnival
brogrammed skating toddlers and
professionals, skaters by choice
and skaters by mother's choice..
Best of all though, were those
we see, and hear about every day,
who 'are concerned with living
right net door or on the other
side of town or in a neighboring
toivn—the rones we know,
* * *• *
Off Cocoon
Human children being so strict-
ly functional, we find it hard to
believe the transformation which
comes with a pair of Skates,
musie, a costume and 'the excite-
ment of performance.
The running and bobbing teen-
agers we see on their way to and
from school suddenly become
smooth -gliding interpreters of
rhythm. They don skates, discard
mittens and here are butterflys.
Tor their audienee too, their
carnival was akin to taking a
moment from the hodge-podge of
living to watch a butterfly on a
fine day.

Interlude •
Spirits reach to touch cool air,
Feel the whim of rhythm beckon,
Peel the tempo lift and lessen,
