sic, exhibits of folk art and Uk rainian women in colorful em broidered attire, all added to the festive atmosphere of the after noon. It is very encouraging that the UNWLA undertook such a pro gram which enabled the guests to gain some knowledge about Ukrainian women and their work, Ukrainian music and folk art. The value of human rela tions at such meetings cannot be stressed too much and the ladies who put forth so much effort in to this UNWLA achievement are to be congratulated for the idea and its fulfillment. It is obvious that gatherings of this type are necessary, bringing together women of diversified back grounds but similar high pur poses, for better understanding in this complex world of ours. The elegant Women’s Hospi tality Lounge in the Purex Pent house also offered an opportun ity for Ukrainian hostesses, at tired in embroidered blouses or dresses, to serve as information aides there during the week of Sept. 21-25, exhibit Ukrainian folk art, and distribute to visit ors at the Lounge the pamphlet about the UNWLA which was printed recently for such pur poses. The ladies who partici pated in this project are also to be commended. It should also be noted that through these two programs the UNWLA received press coverage with pictures in American pa pers and on the Voice of Amer ica broadcasts to Ukraine. Shown are Miss Christine Karpevych, soprano, and Mr. Roman Levytsky, bandurist, who presented Ukrainian folk songs at the W orld’s Fair recep tion.
