third performance, Mss Meizner
remarked, "I always enjoy play
ing for col.lege 'audiences. They're
not quite ac sophisticated and hard
boiled as New York audiences."\

claims . St. Louis as her home town.
Her eonfusion arises out of, the
galaxy of cities and countries she
has lived and. Studied in since her
earliest years.

mother, also a pianist. !Her mother

"I always played for concerts
even when I. was -studying, al
though I didn't have my first
legitimate tour until was 4(5,"
she stated.
After. this' performance. Miss
Meizner is going back to New
York to rest , beeorc± starting her
