CHICAGO TRIBUNE, SUNDAY, DECEMBER 6, 1964 i It AMERICAN CULTURE PRINTING: UNLIMITED BY SHERRY LANGE BY MILOS STEHLIK Farrafut, Junior People complain about the aimlessness of modern American music, modern American art, and modern American literature.

rVVillowbrook, Senior With mounting excitement, shaking knees, and a heart that pounded as loudly as the percussion section of an orchestra, I walked into a new phase of life this fall. I had taken the step which plunged me into the fascinating world of Printing! Why was I trembling so? The" answer is quite simple I am the only girl in a class of 22 printing students at Willow-brook High school. Before this semester, shop courses were not open to girls, thus I knew little or nothing about this subject. At first, everything was intoxicating mass confusion. But slowly and steadily the daily routine of a printer started falling into an organized pattern.

The complaints of these people are completely unjustified since they haven't shown us what downfall of what culture they are talking about. There is no true American culture. No one is an original American even the Indians are immigrants. The products of American civilization are a mixture of European, Asiatic, and African cultural experiences. In the first 300 years after Columbus' famous discovery, we find hardly anything that we can call American.

The writings of the Greeks and of Voltaire, Rousseau, and Locke instilled the ideas i Sherry Lange Milos Stehlilc es ti r- This smart boy coat femininely finished, is designed by Lisanne from nylon Most of my work takes place in the composing room. Once there, my mind reels. I have to be extra good and I can't slow down for a minute. I must learn to be fast and sure of myself. But I like it.

Printing vernacular, almost magical in sound, started creeping into my vocabulary. The words, themselves, were not new to me only their meanings. Stick, pi, case, and form all now have different meanings. There are, of course, others such as offset, platen, em quad, reglet, and quoin, which are intriguing and fascinatingly new. "It's a man's world" is a thought of the past Women are taking over occupations which 10 years ago would not have been considered possible.

I am a senior and only one year of printing is open to me. But maybe, just maybe, if I try, I may challenge this so-called man's world and see for myself how freedom of the press is put into type. Miss Sherry Lange, 17, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Lange, is sports editor of Skyline, newspaper for Willowbrook High school, Villa Park, where she serves as G.

of democracy in the minds of the colonists; the revolutionists just put these thoughts into action. Altho craving for independence of all the colonies, the Puritans unmistakably thought in behalf of Massachusetts; the Virginians, in behalf of Virginia. No one really thought in behalf of the United States of America. During the 19th and the 20th centuries, the ideas of all nations finally began to be fused together to give a basis for a new trend a new type of music, art, and literature an independent and distinct type of culture American culture. American culture.

American art, jazz, blues, and rock 'n roll, the mystery and detective story are a result of this blend. This new culture served further as a background for the creation of the skyscraper, Hoover dam, the supermarket things which we can call American. It is said that this new culture is a disgrace to America. If this is true; why is it that Britain, France, Germany, Russia, in fact the whole world has adopted these creations and have tried to imitate them in order to give their culture an American quality? Unless the complaining masses have something better to offer, their beliefs are without foundation. It is too early to judge American culture.

Since it is so new, we have nothing previous with which to compare it. If American culture is to be called American, we cannot judge it by European standards. tricot Quilt "Ca prolan" with fancy embroidery. Cozy warm Kodel fiber-fill.
