That's an exalted position we leaye to the lads in longhair lane, but permit us for a few paragraphs to expound on one Edith Piaf who is packing 'em in at the Copa room. She's a woman, you hardly would look at twice during-a-casual promenade; definitely no a la Monroe, but nonetheless quite a hunk of gal when it comes to singing. Edith, we presume, has a background that is all French, but j&?║p a different type of France tbttfitire one we have been le.d^pPlieye exist?.

There is a sort of pensive expression in Edith's every action, but particularly on her face which is as sensitive as the dial on a television set.. If you don't parley vous French very well still you have an idea what it's all about by following the Piaf facial expressions. We haye been told by those who know Mm business that this is a rare gift of a talented entertainer. You almost could get lost in reverie during her show because it's easy to r>sminiic%v<ahd forget with the thrush on the stage singing in throaty type of manner. One can recall the rolling low4 lands of Normandy with its my-j riads of hedgerows from behind! which German and American sal4 lied forth some eight and one half year's ago; also you see the] swarthy people of the Breton country who are as different from the tall Normans as night is from day; and Paris with its melting pot of] French, some who were gay then when things were so dark inside their beautiful country. This we re-1 piS^etl^hen she sang. .
