Miss Nyberg's Impressions of Miss Mary Ned Nyberg. granddaughter of Mr. and Mrs. H. C.

Burnham. 620 Peacher, and a graduate of Chillicothe High School, last summer visited France. Greece, Italy and Switzerland and was in Paris just as student riots were trailing off. Below she gives impressions of Paris that she wrote for her journal. Miss Nyberg teaches English in the 9th and 10th grades of Wayland school in Cambridge, Mass.

Her Address is 371 Harvard street. No. 5. Cambridge. Mass.

To the elegant, Paris is the Champs-Elysses, avenue of famous restaurants, DeGaulle's palace and the couturiers, home ef the "haute couture" of the world of fashion. To devotees of history and art, Paris is tie Louvre, Musee des Paumes, Musee Rodin, and a host of historical monuments.

To the financier, Paris is the gilt- domed Societe Generale, a bank that looks more like a museum or palace, with its mosaic floors, marble counters and windows for African accounts. To the shopper, Paris is its famous department stores, Au Printemps (In Spring) and Gal- erics Lafayette, plus hundreds of mod boutiques to lure the budgetless. To most tourists, I tup- Parit It mixture of monuments, restaurants, and museums, particularly Notre Dame end the Eiffel Tower. Memories of such ere often comprised buildings end other American touristt on the tame tour. A short visit to a great city must be superficial, especially if one tries to see all the known spots.

1 prefer an intensified look at one area, especially its people. Since I'm basically a student at heart, Paris to me is the Latin Quarter. This area, also known as "le rive gauche," the left bank of the Seine, is called the Latin Quarter because it is the home of the universities, and during the Middle Ages, Latin was the language of scholars, and more frequently heard around universities than French. Following are excerpts from journal covering my stay in the Latin Quarter, shortly after the main revolt and riots by students and workers against De- Gaulle's government. Peritl Red-tiled rows of ordered trees.

poplars. So all seem trimmed. Whomp! The landing. Six hours from New World to Old. Orly.

Gray misty day, typical Boston, alas. 66 degrees. Boulevard jaint Germain. Tree-lined boulevards fringed with sidewalk cafes, moddest of the mod shops designed as igloos, icicles, molecular structures. Very grey, cloudy day.

The cafe is drink- Ing beers, students munching strawberries and sipping wine, old men surveying from benches. The small cars dart furiously, directionless. Breezes ruffle hems, reveal slips. Workmen dressed in blue, topped with slouched berets, sit near the impeccably attired businessmen, Sun slinks away. Moustaches abound.

No wholesome clean American slightly in need of a shave. Hippy fringe element, though shod. "Lunch" with French and Carmen students in a student experience most tourists miss. Wild, obese friz- zly, shaggy old cafeteria ladies heaving beans, macaroni, glum- py potatoes on our tin plates. Yoghurt and wine.

Our first taste of French the atmosphere we pay for." L'Hotel Tarenne is an old narrow building with tiny charming mirrors and flowers. Our thin room complete with French doors onto Boulevard Saint Germain, scroll plaster moldings on ceiling, and a variety of designs in wallpaper, bedspreads, and curtains, seems out of the 19th century. The location is from Aux Deux Magots and Cafe Flore and next to Cafe Lipp (Pompidou's ban g-out, from which Ben Bella was adducted), three of Paris' oldest most prominent cafes, and Le Drugstore, with apothecary jars, mirrors, hamburgers and sundaes. The longer the waiters' aprons, the more expensive the cafe, and these aprons reach the ankles. TfM Letln Quarter is a frosted, sophisticated Harvard Square.

Journal Tells Paris Through the open French doors of our room. I see another large stone building laced with delicate grill work balconies abovr- the leafy iree- tops.

The (roes arc a primary attraction, adding grace and natural form to each roadway. That's why it's such a crime that several trees were destroyed during the riots near the. Sorhonnr. How barren that part of street seems in contrast to the rest. Even paving stones were uprooted for use as barricades or weapons.

Blacktopped sections of street suggest the former violence. Grills covering treeroots and surrounding ground have been uprooted and now the sand scatters on the walk no longer barred to sub! strata. The Sorbonne is blocked by busloads of idle policemen. Students speak of police brutality, DeGaulle's meglomania and Beaudelaire. I'd like to live at my mini-balcony, feet on iron grillwork, breeze In hair.

Somehow, Paris traffic seems less noisy and cacophonous than that of Cambridge. Little cart "beep" rather than "honk." Wrinkled ole men and women sit et bus bench beneath, Afro with guitar tingt "When the Saints Go Marching In." People peer from balconiet across the street. Outdoor cafes are 5-7 lull. Impeccable young gentlemen smoking on bench across street. Grayness settles.

Rain has flirted all for the ravage. Even the most mundane sounds exotic when foreign. Mini-bikes galore. 1 think the moustache is an official part of the gendarme's uniform. 2 a.m.

Le Quartier latin est plut beau) Men sit for hours and talk in cafes. Why do we lack this in USA? People generally are quite at all the cold rude reception expected. Cafe-hopping is tremendously exciting, but becomes expensive. Paris is indeed among the costliest of ci- for a Coke, $1 for sundae. Evenings in the Latin Quarter along the boulevard are as vibrant and varied as afternoons.

Le Boule-Mich (Boulevard Saint- Michel) and Boule St. Germain carnival at night. Sidewalks swelled with people- mostly pairs, men in search of excitement, old ladies out for gossip, old men lying in corners. Many people, earn money from boulevards at night "poets," painters display their talents for the public, usually have a chalked square or circle on the sidewalk, above a "merci." The most impressive, I think, are the art students' exhibits. Famous paintings are copied on the walk with quite good.

Then a chalked box with such pleas as "If you think my poem deserves a cup of coffee thank you" or "This picture is drawn for your pleasure by a poor art student." The centimes (pennies) mount. Harmonica, flute and guitar playert make money this way, also. Even self-made "poets" often get quite a hand for their emotional efforts. Stands of jewelry, sunglasses, candy, coconuts, and Afro products abound on the boulevard. I wonder if the Afro influence will appear in this manner in USA.

Many groups of students arguing against selling books, records of the May revolts. A whole book window full of Stokely Carmichael (in French) with some Martin Luther King. The small winding passageways of the Latin Quarter are swarmed by hungry students, seeking exotic fare in native Vietnamese. Chinese, Japanese, Indian, Arabic. African, Greek, Italian, Scandinavian, Spanish, Mexican, Russian, and American restaurants, tucked into obscure corners, cellars, and at tics.

Night noises are first night or two. I wish I had a tape -coord- ing of the honkings, yells, glass breaking, singing, accordions, guitars, that make each night a vivid new experience end postpone tleep. (I later discovered that these were lingering remnants of the my hotel window. This is why I noticed so few Americans in this district; most avoided Paris, nearly all avoided the Latin Quarter, center of riots.) Paris morning.
