Bruce LeFavour9 s Paragon Featured in Times Story

The Paragon Restaurant at Aspen, Colo., is one of four dis­tinctive eating .places featured in a story in today's New York Times. The article deals with the outstanding menus offered in Aspen restaurants, termed among the most imaginative in the country.

The Paragon is owned and operated by Bruce LeFavour, son of William B. LeFavour of this city.

Those persons who delve in past history will be interested to know that the building which houses the Paragon dates back to early Colorado mining days. Old-timers say the place was once a bordello that f i n a l l y closed due to hard times. Later it became a garage and then a cafeteria. <' s

LeFavour, while dining at the Laperouse in Paris brie evening decided to convert the Paragon into a Victorian place with sa­lon's particuliers throughout.

Singlehandedly he is said to have installed charming private compartments for dining to ac­commodate from two to 10 guests. •

A fixed menu prevails at the Paragon which varies daily from roast wild boar, terrine of pork, filet of beef and roast duck with all the fixings.

There are two seatings each evening at the Paragon and the courses served range from five to eight.

The Paragon, like most Aspen restaurants is closed each Sun­day. '

Other Aspen restaurants rat­ing praise in the Times article were the Copper Kettle, the Red Onion and the Golden Bear. All are recommended as excep­tional: eating places:;; »*{ a. •.

A late afternoon audience ex­pressed enjoyment at the play­ing of Saint Saens Carnival of the Animals which was played in an excellent manner by the orchestra and soloists.

Featured In the "fun-piece," which was the com­poser's one venture into humorous music, were the twin pianos of Knthryn Dur-kln and Susan Hardcastle who performed with taste, plus good t e c h n i q u e , throughout the long, 15-part dissertation of animal life. In addition to the piano

artists, the charming score also featured bassist AndreJ Garoza, cellist Marie Zeller, clarinetist Wayne Sheer, and flutist Holly Stockbridge, substitute for prin­cipal flute Shelby Boggio, all turned inflne individual efforts.

Also sharing the credit for the success of Carnival of the Ani­mals was narrator Donald K. Isburgh, whose well-modulated voice read the nonsensical, but delightful verses of the great poet Ogden Nash which com­plimented the musical score.

Conductor Otto A. Miller ex­acted the changes of mood and character from each section with his deft handling of the baton. He even Joined in when the members .of'the orchestra tossed peanuts at the bassist Garoza after his highly-de­scriptive solo entitled "The Elephant."
