Russian Circus Is Mere Variety Show Circus More Like TV Variety Show MOSCOW, (INS) — Russians don’t seem to mind orfe bit that' their circuses don’t have lion tamers, elephants and pretty girls. A Soviet circus is more like a Saturday night TV variety show than an old-fashioned, thrills and chills American tent show. One Ring The one-ring state “Tsrrk” performs in its own brick theater not far from downtown Moscow. The lobby is all lined with marble. j Bi|t you close your eyes and sniff and you know where you are, all right. It certaidly smells like a ’ circus. Soviet circuses operate under plaster “big tops.” They have no canvas, squads of roustabouts or painted wagons. Permanent buildings in major Soviet cities house year - around circus theaters. The Russian circus circuit apparently hasn't enough lion tamers,elephants or pretty girls to go around, because the current show at the Moscow arena stands qhort on all three items. And a troupe of melancholy gypsies doesn't nearly take up the alack. But even second-rate circuses can be fun. Here’s what this correspondent found at the "Tslrit": Clowns wear ordinary stage makeup and normal Soviet street clothes — trousers broad enough to put on over snowshoes and dou-ble-breasted jackets. This costume seems pretty funny to a westerner who hasn’t been tfi the USSR long enough to get used to men’s trouser styles. But what strikes the Russians about these clown suits are the maroon, light blue and tan jackets and odd pants. These colors are pretty gay for these parts and the well-dressed Soviet man doesn't wear coats and trousers that don’t match. The circus troups are under the colors of the Ministry of Culture. This means the foolery must be educational as we!) as funny. T)>e crowd roared when the clowns and singers lampooned buck-passing bureaucrats and the current scarcity of meat. And a ballad about "American imperialists” and the Korean war sot oft guffaws when a guitarstrumming duet sang irreverently about "beez-ness,” "dollar!,” and ’.’Vail Streetza.” The program included a series of fair to good acts — wire-walk-ing, tumblers, balancing, sleight-of-hand, trained dogs and horses, and a team of Chinese jugglers — all accompanied by the 30-piece Order of Ixmin Circus Orchestra. A gray bear and his trainer grunted and groaned through a wrestling exhibition. The bear wasn’t nearly as ferocious in the fur as he had appeared on the circus posters around town, but with a little polishing he might go far in Stateside TV wrestling. ! Top billing went to an expert aerial clown. Muscovites roared when he lost his baggy sailor suit in mid-air, revealing a snazzy pair of striped tights. Then a terrible, thing happened. The clown lost his grip and plunged toward the ring. But springs attached to his safety line shot him back up to his perch under the plaster dome. The crowd recovered its breath and cried with laughter. It would be a great act in anybody's circus. Cold Front I.A JOLLA. Calif. (INS) — A "cold front” in the waters of the Pacific Ocean gexverally means happy hunting grounds for the commercial fisherman. The Scripps Institute of Oceanography at Jolla says that ocean "cold fronts” usually are centers of teeming plant and animal life and are visibly marked for the fisherman by lines of kelp or foam on the water’s surface. — Men Forget _ NEW YORK, (INS) — Men are more forgetful than women when it comes to leaving articles behind dn hotel rooms.

(INS) — Although she works in the shadow of lowa State Penitentiary, Maxine Shagsta plies her trade, as a forger without fear of the law. ” As Ft.

Most are those of just average citizens — doctors, lawyers, teachers, students, nurses and housewives.

Maxine, who hails from Stockport, la., explains that copying signatures on a flat plate is relatively simple for an experienced engraver. But putting a signature on the curved surface of a gold

Mich., (INS) — Women lead men in religious, civic, philanthropic and cultural activities and are also ahead to a lesser degree in social, political and alumni affairs. This is the opinion of Miss Grace Coyle, professor of group work. Western Reserve University, who spoke on “The Role f Women in Community Life” at a University of Michigan summer program. " She cited current statistics to back up her statement and attributed the change in influence to the fact that domestic duties and responsibilities have shrunk, giving women the chance to turn their attentioift elsewhere. About womens’ clubs and other organized affiliation, Professor Coyle said: "Marled women enter organizatinos to use the interests and abilities gained from college education. These groups provide certain outlets and opportunities to supplement their family and domestic functions.” ‘ BERLIN, (INS) — Vacation express trains leaving Berthe are equipped with hammocks, which according to medical reports, provide beneficial relaxation on long trips.
