Realism Vs. Advertisement Produces Jarring Upsets To One's Fondest Expectations By SAM DAWSON NEW YORK, Sept. 6. (.VI Keeping the public from being bilked by what it sees in the ads in one of the Jobs of the Federal Trade commission. It has just gone to bat for the girl who ac quires her curly locks at home. The FTC says that the twin n the ubiquitous home wave ad had the help of a pro in setting her hair, and it thinks the ad shouU have said so. But, how manv persons ever supposed she did it herself? For that matter, how many really expect that the product they buy will look as glamorous as in the pictures on the label? Noting editorially that the FIX: 1r getting mighty particular, the Wall Street Journal asks it to in spect ten-dollar bill, which savs on its face that it is "redeemable in lawful money at the United BRING YOUR CAR WITH Confidence to Lloyd's Auto Body Shop 501 Fullerton St. Ph. 102S-J OPEN SUNDAYS! 8 to 6 daily including Sunday Complete engine and body repair on anything with wheels.

The general public probably Is Just as blase about the product ads I reads as It is about- no longer getting gold, or "lawful money" for a paper bill. When you see a railroad ai picturing a happy family gazing out the compartment window at the beautiful river, do you think that view is guaranteed that you might not find yourself on the ether side of the car, looking at cut banks and slums? Are the airlines to blame that they don't always furnish that beautiful seat companion you see in their ads? Or that the well behaved child in the ad turns out to be your own Junior getting airsick? Most husbands, looking at the flour ads showing mouth-watering triumphs prepared at home know well enough that the little woman is Just as apt to produce a fallen cake, or biscuits that call for a meat axe. The wife, on the other hand, looking at the clothing ad of the handsome, unruffled male, knows how her man with the paunch would look in that suit after he rode horn on the evening train. And the dresses draped on the models who are runners-up for Miss America never really fool the gal with the pinching girdle and the slightly bowed or knock kneed legs.

(2PCD IIP cnxH' TXDi Red Glasses On Night Shift Prompt Navy To Redesign Its Playing Cards Tuti., Sept. I, '1149 -The Newt-Review, Roteburg, Ore. 3 By FRANK CAREY Associated Press Science Reporter NEW LONDON, Conn., Sep t 6. KKi The navy reports some thing new in reconversions to meet a military emergency re designed packs of plaving cards. The service had to oraer a new color scheme for the hearts and diamonds In the deck for this rea son: Night-duty submariners and aviators wear special red glasses to prepare tneir eyes for quick adaptation to night vision when they'd be called to topside duty. The glasses worked fine from the night vision angle, but there was a big hitch: The boys found that the glasses literally made a rough deal out of card-playing in their quarters before duty time. Since the glasses were red col ored the spots on the red cards were hard to see. The navy settled the problem this way: It put black borders around all the hearts and diamonds and all the numbers on those cards were made black also. In addition, spe cial symbols were placed on the card edges to facilitate vision. In the redesigned decks made up by a card company according to navy specifications the spades and clubs are the same as in an ordinary deck. This sidelight on the war effort was explained by Lieut. Comdr. Dean Farnsworth head of the col or vision section of the navy's big submarine base at New Lon don. He told it to reporter during i a tour of the base made by the "Society for the Study of Devel-! opment and Growth'' which is holding a symposium at Connec ticut college. t In a talk to the scientists, 1 Comdr. Farnsworth also declar ed: 1. The service has what It con sidered "foolproof tests for color blindness" employing a variety of Instrument. 2. It is studying the problem of the "best colors to put on the tails of remotely controlled pro jectiles." He offered no amplification. Beauty Leaves For Pageant But Dispute Lingers SEATTLE, Sept. 6 (JPy Using the clothing and ticket purchas ed by her townfolk. Miss Wash ington of 1949 climbed aboard a plane here last week and headed for the Miss America pageant in Atlantic City. But the sniping between (he Seattle committee and the Kelso Chamber of Commerce, which has been whistling for weeks over her pretty head, continued right up to the last moment. A Seattle committee spokes man said that Libby Aldrich caused some embarassment and "added insult to injury ' when she failed to show up for a scheduled Interview last night with singer lony Martin, which mem- oers nad arranged. It seems the Kelso Chamber of Commerce group, which has directed scathing criticism against the preparations made for Miss Washington by the com mittee, had other plans for the young woman before departure. Miss Aldrich. however, left the Seattle pageant committee a me mento their purchased airlines ticket which she did not use. C. F. Lloyd-Young, financial backer of the committee, said It will be cashed to help pay bills of an earlier origin. Completely equipped by a $2. 000 fund raised by her Kelso and Longview backers, Miss Aldrich wore a red knit suit, white coat and hat. She was accompanied by a chaperone, Mrs. Max Moore. The Kelso Chamber had eon tended that the wardrobe pro vided by the pageant commitee was "unsuitable." It also claim ed the Seattle group reneged on providing a cnaperone. "I don't know whether she took the wardrobe we provided or not," said Lloyd-Young. (KeUo spokesman said she did not.) "However, everything was of good quality and the clothing was furnished by IS leading textile manufacturers." He added: "Our only hope la that the peo ple of Seattle and the state have learned a lesson from this exper ience and will properly support the efforts of the committee next year." a former Washington newspaper man and is now serving aa spe cial assistant to Secretary of the Interior Krug, Pneumonia Diagnosis Proves Steel Chain PORTLAND, Sept. 6 (.)
