Eleven Selections Are Read by
Robert Lee at
Meeting
A new poet, who might be likened
to a new Robert Burns, swept into
the Writing club Monday night on the
crest of eleven poems. Robert Lee
read a selection ranging from nature
lyrics to the modern indefinable verse
of cynicism. Free meter — not free
verse—with a powerful rhyme char-
acterized his poems.
Kenneth Phillips opened the pro-
gram by re-reading a poem which ho
read the week before. It had been
made more pictorial by revision, and
retained the title, "Unfolding".
In a very few hundred words, Fran-
ces Foster's short story, christened
"Ten of Hearts" by the club, depicted
graphically, almost melodramatically,
a suicidc mystery. She was compli-
mented on the conciseness and vivid-
ness of her style.
"Precept.-; for a little Girl with a
Compliment Thereto" was the title of
a four-line stanza, the first of Lee's
selections. Then he read, "My Lesser
Loves of Yesteryear", "A Sonnet," and
"Movie Star", a hilarious jest at the
paint crust of Filmdom. Nejft he
read "To a Flirt" and "Deathless",
' which was hailed the best one he had
yet read.
