Italian Scenes Shown by Dinner Guest By MAY MURRAY Scenes in Europe, particularly in Italy where she spent more than two years were shown guests of at one tllne bringing plaster down Miss Leslie Gage by Mrs. Esther fro TM gXTm TM Ackley, Tacoma, following a artment That New Year's Eve, a dinner at which Miss Gage TM bombs shook the Special cakes, rich with liqueur, hostess Thursday evening at the chocolate and whipped cream, are Hotel Winona. Mrs. Ackley also made for feast days and the feast talked informally on her stay in i day of a patron saint for whom an Naples and her visits to various i Italian is named, is much more countries.

important to that person than his New Year's celebration is the discarding of old dishes and furniture so that the New. Year may be started aright. Bottles and dishes crash out onto the street, and the. next morning Mrs. A recalled that there was a continuous "popping" of automobile tires.

The Italians also fire bombs on festive occasions, often the bombs shaking the apartment and even, Mrs. Ackley and Miss Matilda Gage, Aberdeen. S. cousin of Miss Leslie Gage, arrived here this week to be the latter's guests. Mrs.

Ackley and Miss Matilda Gage left two years ago last July for Europe, spending a month in London, visiting the rural English countryside, and Scotland before going on to Paris, Switzerland and Italy. There Mrs. Ackley joined her son-in-law and daughter, Chief Journalist Marvin Beasley, U. S. and Mrs.

Beasley, and their family in Naples. Miss Gage returned home and Mrs. Ackley remained in Italy until recently when she returned to this country for a stay in Florida before coming up to Winona. The attitude of the Italian people toward United States citizens changed during Mrs. Ackley's two- year stay there.

When she first arrived in Naples, there were periods when demonstrations or political speakers were expected in the city, during which Americans were asked to remain off the streets. Jeeps with Italian military or police forces were stationed in front of American quarters in addition to the regular patrols and the U. S. Navy men took Navy buses driven by Italians when they reported for work rather than their own cars. In some instances, U.

S. cars had been upset, stoned and even burned. Mrs. Ackley left Italy prior to the present Trieste crisis, and had experienced no difficulty or unpleasantness for some time in traveling in Italy. She made her home with her son-in-law and daughter in an apartment in Naples, Beasley having gone to Naples with the Navy to set up a public relations office there.

Their apartment one New Year's eve was on the lower level oi Naples which is built up the sides of an extinct volcano crater, the harbor being the center of the crater. Feast days and holidays are specially exciting times in Italy and for the New Year's holiday, the people save for many months, going even without food, shoes and other clothing, Mrs. Ackley learned, to have food with which to buy fireworks and bombs. One family, the children shoeless and trouserless, purchased sufficient fireworks for a four or five- hour display. That New Year's Eve, the view from the apartment in which Mrs.

Ackley lived upward at the higher levels of the city, was like looking at a "waterfall" she said, for es.ch balcony (and she explained most buildings are apartments with from one to six balconies per apartment) had its own fireworks display and these displays from the highest level of the amphitheater-like bowl of the city to the lower levels gave the waterfall appearance. One of the amusing facets of the own birthday anniversary. Foods are rich and even children's rubber toys are chocolate flavored or scented. While in Europe, Mrs. Ackley visited Norway, Denmark, Sweden, Belgium, Holland, Bavaria, Austria and other countries.

She recalls one trip with amusement, a trip for which she arrived at 5:30 a. m. at the station to catch a train which was to leave an hour ater. The porter directed her to one train although she rather fancied that train on another track was hers. She piled in with her bags, the train started and the conductor informed her that she was headed for Treveso instead of Trevesio but assured her that she could catch the Trevesio train at Treveso.

En route, station platforms were packed with humanity and into her Dr. Konrad Wolff To Give TC Lecture-Recital Dr. Konrad Wolff Dr. Konrad Wolff; pianist and musicologist, will present a lecture-recital before the assembly of Winona State Teachers College, in Somsen auditorium Monday at 9:30 a.m. The subject of the -lecture will be "How to Listen to Music." Through performance of compositions and themes on the piano during the lecture, Dr.

Wolff will develop his thesis that knowledge of music grows from love of the art. Enjoyment, he contends, is the root from which musical understanding grows. Dr. Wolff, a graduate of the Sorbonne, University of Paris, and holder of a doctorate from the University of Berlin studied piano with the late Artur Schnabel, with compartment built for eight per- whom be also Wr0te a text on piano sons, piled 16 with bundles, bags, iread filled with fish (the fish by the way, landing on her lap), wine Dottles and other items. Her legs were battered black and blue by the bags and her hat was frantically rescued from beneath the feet of "one traveler.

At Treveso, when she tried to enter, the train for Trevesio, every compartment was packed as was the aisle and to Mrs. Ackley it appeared as heads were protruding from every window. Seeing the dining car vacant, she rapped frantically on its window and the waiter let her in and advised her when he brought her a cup of coffee and a couple of rolls to make them last for the "three-hour trip, so that she could remain, in the car. Other Americans, whom she saw on the platform attempting to board the train, she rescued motioning them into the dining car The occasion for the mass exo dus of Italians was an election ant each family had been ordered by the government to a definite poll ing place, apparently outside their own residence area. Mrs.

Ackley never learned the system followed She also tells of humorous en counters with maids in the Beas ley apartment. While maids work from 6 a. m. to 10 p. m.

at approximately $10 a month, their ideas of sanitation have to be changed. "Americano patso" was the oft-heard statement from Rosa when she thought they demanded too much cleanliness. Emma, an earlier maid, could not understand why lettuce had to be washed five or six times and when mud was washed from strawberries, she had to be convinced by tasting that the flavor had not gone with the mud. Mrs. Ackley brough many lovely articles back with her from Europe, including several 200 and 100- year-old mosiac-set bracelets, pins and earrings.

European heirlooms vied with those in the American household of Miss Gage at the dinner for the if Schumann's Musicians." Most of Dr. nterpretation. He has written several treatises on chamber-music works and has published an edition "On Music "and Wolff's musical activities in this country have been carried on in the East. Last year appeared as soloist with the National Art Gallery orchestra in Washington, D. and presented a recital at the Phillips Gallery in same city.

From 1943 to 1950 he served as assistant musical director of tie New Friends of Music in New York City. His interest in music for modern dance has led to his playing for many of this country's leading modern dancers. Dr. Wolff's teaching activities include private classes in New York City, White Plains, and Washington, D. C.

on the subject, "How to Listen to Music." His current series of lecture-recitals on the same topic will carry him to colleges and universities through the Middle West. On completion of his current tour. Dr. Wolff will return to Washington for another rectial at Phillips Gallery, after which he will depart for a concert tour of western Europe. The lecture-recital at the college Monday morning is open to the public.

table was centered with a latticed bowl on its own stand, filled with fruit, the bowl dating back to Dolly Madison's time. Also on the table was a silver boat-shaped dish with a tiny silver squirrel on one side and a silver bird on the other, another antique. To spoon nuts from the boat, Miss Gage brought a silver spoon which had belonged to her great- great-grandmother and which bore the family motto and coat of arms, A silver plate on the table was a recent gift to Miss Gage from the home, of her aunt, Maud Gage Baum, wife of L.
