THE WAY (by Dolores Calvin) NEW YORK CITY (CNS) —An ambitious, dark-eyed, Oklahomian, Miss Basil Spears, is fast becoming a close runnerup to Hazel Scott. Hazel as you know, now reigns over all boogie woogiests playing the classics first straight, then pouring their in dividual personality into the keys, bringing forth the novelty and exhib iting their own greatness Basil is 23; she’s played since she can remember. Rev. B. J. Spears, her father, pastor of the Mt- Rose Baptist Church in Tulsa, had a lot to do witl. her career. It was in I.is church that she learned the organ, in addition to the piano, and derived from it a keen sense of appreciation for classic and choral works. And in her school choir at Tulsa, she ped alled the organ's melodious strains for hei anxious classmate listeners. A TaUedga Girl Basil then majored in music at Talledega College where she finish ed in 1941. Finding her talents def initely ala Scott, she struck out in the field by playing 6 months at Mon roe’s Uptown House, 2 months at Hotel Billis in Utica, New York, a summer in Atlastic City, 8 months on a l SO tour, 8 weeks at Lindsays, a return date for 15 more weeks and 8 weeks at Tondaleyoes in New York *1 he western miss is now fingering throng-’ 16 weeks at Washington's Bengasi Club. Hobby Is Music. .. For relaxation, Basil can play a good game of tennis and basketball, but she treasures most of her col'ec tion of records, many of which are classics. She, too, puts accent on clothes and cosmetics, feeling that an artist before the public must look her best always Th» boys, esptcially those she's en tertained on her USO tour, adore her. But Basil isn't yet engaged and emphatically denies interest. How ever, we think that the someone will be ncluded in the young lady's post war plans Shi likes ear-rings and young red nail polish. And she enjoys losing herself in a 'moment of madness’ b> * rushing patterned black and white keys together—Spears sytlc Modest Basil laughs if you rate hi with Dorothy Donegan. the Chicag' wond r who rose from $ti a week tc a Hollywood movie and a Broadw-v success. But Basil, like Doroth', i ‘up and coming.’ In fact, the score reads Scott, Donegan and Spears! ^ es, right now Hazel is seplan queen of the ivories. But with her own umque technique and likeable mannerisms, it won’t be long before Basil Spears, too, has the keys to the kingdom! READ The fZUIDP SEAL SALES ENCOURAGING THROUGHOUT NEBRASKA NEEDS ALL POST-SEAL SALE RETURNS. Omaha, Nebraska (Special) Mon day was Christmas, l!)44. For many families throughout Nebraska, this was a different Christmas because there were many faces missing from the war-time group enroitte to church and gathered around the Christmas tree- But it was still Christmas. And the joy and happiness synonom ous with Christmas still was present. It was Christmas for the Nebraska Tuberculosis Association family too The celebration of every year’s great est day rang down the curtain on the annual Christmas Seal Sale, sole sup port,.of the Nebraska Association’s battle against tuberculosis 'rhe popular suery advanced at tnc end of the thirty-eighth Seal Sale, was,,. "How did (he sale go?” This year, Association officials elected to wait: a few weeks before answering that question. They said that seal sales have been encouraging throughout Nebraska. But since there are many people who have not yet sent in their money for seals, an announcement at this time would foil to include all citizens' sup port. The Association empnasized that though Christmas has passed, Nebr- | askans who have forgotten during the holiday rush to pay for their Christ inas Seals may do so now. They added that the real success of the Seal Sale cannot be determined until all returns are received in the next few weeks This policy (accepting money after Christmas) is coherent with the work of the Association. The Association works the whole year fighting tuber culosis. So, money from Seals, even though late, will do just as much to ward eradicating tuberculosis as that received weeks ago. The Association needs all the fin ancial support Nebraskans can give it. Because statistics show the sad fact that there was an 11 percent increase in tuberculosis deaths in Nebraska last year as compared to 1942. To set up a barricade against further rise i lithe death rate, the Association i needs all post-Seal Sale returns.

Some expect the police to show len iency and tolerance. There are enough extra hazards in December, such as more darkness, icy roads and heavier holiday traffic, without drivers celebrating by care less driving. Back up the police, and help make this Christmas a time of happiness instead of sorrow. A further need for more safety on the part of all motorists is to protect the excellent safety record, which is now being established in Nebraska. There were f> traffic fatalities in Ne braska for the first 15 days of Dec ember, as compared to !) for the same period last year- This year's total fatalities number 152 as compared to BOWELS SLUGGISH? • Feeling like you lost your best friend - headachy—dull—all because of sluggish bow els?
