Truck and
Double Truck.
The simple walks of life are no
more. Gone are the one-two-oncs
and the step-gllde-steps in danc
ing. Tast are the days when a gent
pushed his frail the length of a
ballroom, turned her around and
shoved her back again. Forever
dead are gliding swoops and
sweeping turns. Everybody's
truckin'.
Not that any of us old timers
could ever keep up to date. The
father remarked the other day
that before he could ever venture
on a dance floor again, he'd have
to learn somehting other than just
"walkin' around." And tripper of
super-light fantastlcs, Ed Ewart,
asked this lead-foot how was com
ing our "around and abooting."
But there are those
The High and Hi Di Hi
As in every other skilled pas
time, there's truckin' and there's
truckin'. Differences in temper
ament and altitude make for In
dividuality. Bob Ramey't truck
In', for example, is lofty; Merl
dore Cropper's is lowdown. Both
are things of beauty to behold.
But the nice blending of the
casual with the enthusiastic we
so admire in our truckin' is most
nearly achieved in the stepping
of Aberdeen's own Ruthie Van
Slyke. Miss VanSlyke made her debut
as a danseusc before an enthralled
throng of associated Christian
young men. Ruthie, with Claudine
Burke was trekin' a nasty truckin'
down the Temple stairs just as
the boys were from adjourning a
session with Ray Ramsey on how
to be happy though green, or some
such thing.
Claudine, the sharp-eyed, spotted
the gathering audience at this ex
hibition of fine art. But Claudine,
the wench, although she called a
ha'f in her own step skippings,
spoke nary a word of warning to
fellow artist. And when Ruthie
came out of her clouds with a
start, on the bottom step by the
fountain, she was confronted with
stomping, time-clapping, acclaim
ing and encouraging Y era.
She Has Principles.
Ruth, who once remarked,
fresh from a Bouwsma philos
ophy session, that she guessed
she didn't have an ethical mind,
has, however, definite and ju
dicious ideas on truckin. Her
principles of the dance are two
fold. First, relax! No little bitty,
halfway relaxations allowed. All
relaxing should be done in a
guhreat big way. Second, suh
wing it!
Truckin', feels Authority Van
Slyke, has revolutionized the danc
ing of the age. Where once ball
room footwork was lntrovertive
and, shall we say, subjective, it is
now extravertive, openly objective.
Truckin' has brought on The Big
Apple, and all the new dance cults
that harken back to the old circle
dances. A complete cycle of group
rhythmnixations may evolve from
the hippoty-hoppoty. finger-shaping
fun called truckin".
And the benefits of trie thing.

VanSlyke states, simply. "You're
the life of the party."

Her hobby is the designing of
"dream houses-' for herself, two
story structures with large, sunken
living rooms and streamlined fire
places. All of her "dream houses"
contain workshops where she can
putter about with carpenter tools.
No one else in Avlona family
is particularly interested in archi
tecture, although her father
planned to take it as hi profes
sion before he decided to become
a. doctor.

she is tne only girl is ft frighten

BIOGRAPHY ON LIFE
OF JOAQUIN MILLER
Ag
Instructor of English
Traces Sierra Poet's
Colorful Career.
Martin S. Teterson. English in
structor at the agricultural college,
completed in August a book en
titled "Joaquin Miller, Literary
Frontiersman" which he began in
1930. The book has been published
by the Stanford University Press.
The life of the poet. Joaquin
Miller, is ably traced from the time
of his birth in Vienna till his death
in 1913. Miller led an energetic
life, for he traveled over the Ore
gon Trail, went to the Klondike
was a .lournalist in the Boxer re-
hellion, went with Walker to Nica
ragua. and finallv ca"'cd fame
while traveling in England.
Full-Bearded Eccentric.
The "poet of the Sierras" had
many friends, among them Jack
London. White Harrison. Theodore
Roosevelt snd William McKinley.
Although Miller was not a great
poet, his narrative poetry shows
considerable talent. An able lec
turer, he commented on life in a
manner similar to that of James
Whitcomb Riley. Like Tennyson
and Browning, his works are of
tremendous volume, though not of
such quality. Somewhat an eccen
tric person, he wore a full beard
and a "forty-niner" costume.
The key idea of Mr. Peterson's
book is the presentation of a char
acter w-ho led a colorful frontier
life and then wrote about It
