T11E BE-THPAGE TRIBUNE, Bethpage, N.Y., Thursday, October 13, 1966 FIVE Of In teres t to Wo m eh A prominent Miami, Fla. club woman, Mngu Thomas S. Gowin, set her sigmb on a college * 7 gree, but after three al 22 years, she calls perihatient drop-but,*- College life began for her in 1932 when, as Marjorie Meggs, she enrolled as a freshman at the University of Miami. She completed her-first year, but a need for finances made it nec essary for her to work. She married Dr. Gowin in 1938, and when her husband went overseas during the war, she returned to the University to get a degree. Then the war ended and she and her husband were glad to settle down to a peaceful home life. In 1954, she returned to classes. The credits she had previously earned were invalid after 10 years and she had to start over as a freshman. She stayed one semester. Mrs. Gowin does not plan an- otiier attempt because \I've found plenty of cultural stimulation elsewhere - and a meaningful life outside the home in cltib work.” She is president of the Dade County Federation of Wo men’s Clubs and the State As sociation of Parliamentarians. * * * If you like ivy as a girbund cover, watch its growth and do not allow it to climb trees.

READ YOUR HOM E T OW N WEEKLY Whether Thomas Wolfe (1900- 1938) was a great novelist or a sensitive reporter of family af fairs must be decided by the in dividual reader. The fact that within a lifespan of 38 years he produced 4 major works is more than enough to insure his place in American letters. It was Wolfe’s overall plan to tell die story of as many of his ancestors as he could in indi vidual novels - ani these were integrated, the com bined whole would be of America. With the e^geption of a few short stories, he wrote much except about him self and his immediate family. For the most part the story of Eugene Gant in LOOK HOME WARD ANGEL and OF TIME AND THE RIVER is the same as the story of George Webber in THE WEB AND THR ROCK and YOU CAN’T GO HOME AGAIN. Much of Wolfe’s greatness was due to the editorial a rtistry of Maxwell Perkins of Scribners and during the last years of their association when they no longer found itpos- . sible to work together, the break caused one of the biggest li terary scandals of the 20th cen tury. What the reader does get out of Wolfe is a sensitive picture of middle class family life in a southern city during the early 1900’s; the feeling of frustra tion of a potentially great, but unappreciated writer as he struggles through graduate school and supports himself by teaching which he despises. (Wolfe taught English courses at N.Y.U. for 2 years) There are marvellous descrip tions of travel, particularly on night trains and ships, and since ences to give expression to the loneliness of which he suffered all his life. The people of Asheville were never over-impressed by Wolfe’s literary prowess and when LOOK HOMEWARD ANGEL was pub lished and became a b est-seller, Wolfe found out that popularity had drawbacks too. He received many demeaning and threatening letters from North Carolina and this, so he claims in his cor respondence, hurt him more than anything in his life. Quentin Reynolds tells about taking Tom to a literary party at Sinclair Lewis’ apartment in New York and how, the host in one of his Mr. and Mrs. Michael Chub re of 2386 Amherst St., East Mead ow, have announced the engage ment of their daughter, Joann, to Charles Kuchicki, son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Kuchicki of Bethpage. Miss Chubre, a graduate of Division Avenue High School, is employed by Metropolitan Life Insurance. Her fiance, serving in the U.S. Army, is scheduled to leave for Viet Nam from Fort Gordon, Georgia. Barbara Mary Greenwood, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Oliver Francis Greenwood of Wantagh, and Walter J. Bonkowski, son of Mr. and Mrs. Adam Bonkowski of Hicksville, were married at St. Frances de Chantel Catholic Church. The newlyweds will make their home in Farmingdale after a wedding trip to the Poconos. * * * Kathleen Marie Olsen of Beth page and Paul Richard Wagner of Wantagh exchanged wedding vows at a ceremony in St. Martin1'\ of Tours Church. The bride, who attended the State University at New Paltz, is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Raymond J . Olsen. Mr. Wagner, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Frederick Wagner, is an alumnus of Pratt Institute and C.W. Post College. After a honeymoon in the Poc onos, the couple will reside in Bethpage. The South Nassau Christian Women's Club will hold its an nua) Men's Night on Monday, Oct. 17th at 7 p.m. at Carl Hoppl’s in Baldwin. The special feature will be a Calendar Pagent with skits and songs for the months throughout the year. Pete Mun- niskma, a baritone soloist, will provide the special music. The speaker for the evening will be James White, the Eastern Regional Director of Navigators. more dyspeptic moods accused Wolfe of being a one-shot a rtist whom no one would ever hear from again. But. the final judgement of Wolfe's work will rest with the constant readership. So far it would seem that Sinclair Lewis’ judgement was much in error.
