Pianist Attacked, Robbed
Philippa Schuyler, young Amer
ican concert pianist and author,
was attacked, knocked down end
robbed of $300 by a youthful
German in the Frankfort rail
way station at 2 un. on Satur
day October 5 while she was
changing trains there for Brus-
tls.
She had Just come from Frei
burg, Germany, the headquart
ers of the publishing oompany.
Herder & Harder, who are bring
ing out her third book, “Jungle
Saints,” on October 20.
The young artist had just given
a concert in Frieburg end was
on her way back to Rome where
she is to perform in concert this
month also. The attack and rob
bery took place in clear view of
over 100 German men none of
whom reportedly raised a finger
to help her or to stop her as-
sailment.
French Student
One man came forward to help
eventually, and he turned out to
be a young French student, Mau
rice Raymond, who was in Frank
fort to study German. He went
with Philippa to the police station
to help describe her attacker.
Fortunately, the man had not
taken her air tickets, passport,
or Ural Pass which were in an
other part of her bag. But with
the money was her rosary given
her recently by Pope Paul. Here
in New York, Mrs. George
Schuyler, Phillippa's mother had
this to say:
Philippa had no money left with
her even for food and the police
wanted her to stay two days so

Owing to the stepped-up deadline occasioned by
the Columbus Day holiday we are not able to give you
a full report this week of our opening Camp Fund gala
at the Baby Grand on Monday. But we'll make up for
it with the next edition. For the present, suffice it to
say that the most gorgeous union organizer we know,
Local 15’s Sophia Bryant, was her usual charming self
as hostess.
The next affair will be held on Oct. 21 at Fannye
Pierre’s Dawn Cafe, Amsterdam Ave. and 144th St.,
wnere stunning Freida Harris will do the honors.
It’s almost two weeks now since the used-to-be
Bronx Bombers flew out to Los Angeles for their public
burial in Chavez Ravine, but it looks like the long
line of cash seekers still storming my Yankee-betting
friends will stretch on through the winter. If the grin
I’m wearing can be called sadness, then I’m sad for
the likes of such pin-stripe fans as Sam Chuirazzi of
the Parkway Tavern, Carl Clark of the Golden Grill,
and Speedie Pugh and Mac McLeod of Frank's. They’re
still paying because they just wouldn’t listen to what
we Dodger rooters have been telling ’em since '55.
But a serious note: Quick recovery and no ill ef
fects to our good buddy Mac McLeod who underwent
minor surgery this week.
Do you dig steaks? A good bet for one of the best
in town is up at the Flash Inn near the 155th St. bridge
where Dan and Joe have introduced a trans-Atlantic
touch with excellent assortments of dinner wines. We
think it may start a trend that will be welcome among
Harlem’s people of taste.-
Another excellent culinary outpost with at flare for
something different is Keith’s West Indian Food Res
taurant, at 2525 Seventh Ave. The enterprising Keith
Francis is rapidly making household words of such
Caribbean specialties as “Achee” and salt fish, fungie
and Carib-spiced hot meat patties. But, oh my!, what
;he can't do with his hundred ways of fixing bread fruit
and plantain. So, If it’s Calypso for you, Just "Jump in
the line and shake your body on time” down to Keith’s.
It’s the next best thing to Montego Bay.
SALES MANAGER - Lance
Drummond has been appointed
sales promotion manager,
Eastern Division of Victor Fis-
chel and Company, Inc., nation
wide distributor of Wolfschmldt
Vodka and Carstairs Whiskey.
Prior to coming into his new
post Drummond, a former ex
ecutive assistant to Mayor
Wagner, served at advertising
representative for the Johnson
Publishing Co. and sales man
ager of Ebonyk Oil Co., Ja
maica, Queens, in addition to
handling public relations for
political candidates.
they could maybe apprehend the
attacker but they refused to give
her any money for a hotel. She
went to the American consul fi.
nally and asked them to loan her
money until she reached Rome
where she has an account.
“The consul refused until she
mentioned that her father was an
American newspaperman, then
reluctantly he lent her ten dol
lars. The young Frenchman, on
the otherhand, was most gallant
and they have become very good
friends. Philippa reached Rome
safely."
$3 MILLION PHOTO - They
say a picture is worth a thou
sand words. Here is one worth
$3,000,000! That is the actual
dollar volume represented by
the three Gold Record awards

ie by RCA Victor Records Div
ision Vice President and Gn-
eral Manager George R. Marek.
The plaques honor Belafonte's
RCA Victor albums — “Return
To Carnegie Hall,” “Jump Up
Calypso” and “Bclafonte” —
that recently achieved a million
dollars In sales each.
