The cousins parted company in New York and Petropoulos proceeded to
Washington.  Bel-Jon remained in New York for a brief time to continue
his studies of museums and schools.

He connected with his aunt Pepe Stamatiou and uncle ___  Zades; old
friends from Greece like Nicholas Spiros;  visited with his old crush Jane
Richardson, now Jane Hanks, and her husband Lucien in Bennington,
VT.  Jane and Lucien were both noted anthropologists and taught at
Bennington.

Nicholas Matsoukas made arrangements for Bel-Jon to get a job painting
scenery at Fox Studios in LA.
