Rose Quong to Speak at Manor Club Luncheon
Anglo-Chinese Actress, in Native Costume Will Speak on Chinese Culture at President’s Luncheon.
Rose Quong, distinguished Anglo-Chinese actress, will speak at the president’s luncheon which will be held at the Manor Club on Tuesday afternoon.
“From disunity and discord, how may we arrive eventually at a collective peace,” Miss Quong asks in her talk on “Oriental Keys to Life and Power.” She interprets the message of the wise men of the Bast to the people of the West comparing the teachings of Christ to those of Confucius, Buddha and Lao-Tse. Dressed in native costume, the charming actress speaks with exquisite diction and philosophical insight that has won for her recognition in the courts of Europe. Born in Australia of Chinese parents, Rose Quong has learned to combine Oriental and Occidental cultures and has made as her specialty as an actress interpretation of Shakespeare.
