It was a I smooth, near-perfect example of what can be accomplished when student and teacher are in perfect accord "Woodland Whispers," per- say the entire ballet was impressive and showed a great amount of superb leadership. The third act, ''Graduation Ball" brought a standing ovation from the audience. It moved rapidly and sparkled with humor and "feel" for the delightful music of Johann Strauss.

From the tiny lambs and fireflies to the pre-teen baton twirlers the audience interest and enjoyment was high. A fast moving finale led exceptional group by a very of baton finale led by Mary Martilla as the school mistress and Joe Von Drake as the general, brought tremendous applause from the audience.

Their costumes, sets and timing were in my opinion ex- very near future. A lot of hard work and thought is behind a project of this scope and full credit should be given to Joe and Georgia Von Drake, cellent.

Their direction and aging and changes in choreag- choreagraphy gave the produc- raphy added to the charm of I tion a new dimension and drive this ballet and excited audience seldom seen in local ballet corn- interest. I especially liked the special effects of the second scene, the desolate spectral setting dominated by the tomb of Giselle. The fog effects were truly effective and created the proper atmosphere for the entrance of the WLUS. The demanding role of Giselle was danced by Tracey Butson. Her interpretation of a warmhearted and exuberant peasant girl in the first scene and creature of fantasy in the second disclosed her dramatic skill as well as her dance ability Her "mad scene" was convincing and believable.

This young lady has tremendous potential and this reporter hopes she continues her career. The dual role of Albrect-Loys was danced by the very masculine George Grant, who possesses strong stage presence and unusually high elevation. Myrtha, the panies.

I remove tea stains from plastic containers by simply filling them with hot water and adding about two tablespoons of electirc dishwasher detergent. I let mine soak overnight. -MRS. M.C.F. DEAR GIRLS I wish you could see how white the inside of my coffee-stained, porcelain- type percolator is after such a soaking for only about two hours.

POLLY DEAR POLLY I find those cotton tipped sticks we use for some of baby's toilet needs are great to use for cleaning my sewing machine. They get into the narrow places around the bobbin and under the throat plate and pick up lint that a brush completely misses. A tiny drop of oil on the cotton helps, too MRS A DEAR POLLY To easily put creases in baggy jeans I use men's pants stretchers upside down. The bottoms of the stretchers are wide enough for top of the jeans legs and tops of the creasers are wide enough for the flares so no ironing is needed. -STELLA DEAR POLLY The column has given us so many wonderful uses for toothpaste.

I tried it on the ceramic tiles around my sathtub and it really cleaned free of soap and restored the original color. Now I can discard the umpteen jars and bottles of products I have purchased for this, for none did the job as well as toothpaste. MRS. A P. DEAR POLLY Put your dress on a hanger as usual and then bring the hem up to meet the shoulders and hold it ihere with clip clothespins.

Sure beats having it drag on the floor. MRS. R.H. POLLY'S PROBLEM DEAR POLLY I hope someone can tell me how to remove the stones from old jewelry without injuring the sets or stones.
