Julia Smith Says Indians
And Jitterbugs Alike
Put them in the same dress and
in the same place, and Indians
would probably be as much at
home at one of our modern
"stompy" dances as collegians
themselves. Julia Smith, comfort-
ably clad in navy blue slacks and
sweater, expressed that opinion
yesterday during an informal chat

Bobbed, unpermanented hair, a

fessional pursuits, enjoys sports
and athletic competition and pro-

- Miss Smith wrote "Cynthia
Parker," you know—but there was
no freakish procedure in its com-
position, except that the entire
prologue was composed after the
remainder of the work was com-
pleted. It is the prologue that lifts
the story from a local Texas set
ting and makes it familiar to a
Chicagoan, Mew Yoriwr, or peo-
ple of other continent*. Her origi-
nal idea was to present it at the
Texas Centennial in 193A, but to
~ieet that date would have caused
so much hurry and strain that she
feels she not only did a better
job by going slower but the pres-
entation itaelf gets more atten-
tion now that it would have earlier.
She has no "pet hates"—that
