ywp, tevieiu By MRS. GEORGE GREGOR Chairman, YWCA Budget "Shop How many really nice clothe are hanging in your closet that you are tired of iceing there? Then look in Johnnie'i and Susie's dresser drawers and closets don't you see things there they have outgrown and you just can't think of anyone to whom to give them? And look at Dad s closet hasn't he been gaining i little too much weight to wear that suit anymore? Those of you with teen-age daughters and sons know that they like to have nice things, but that they tire of them quickly. Why not bring them to the YWCA Budget Shop at 141 S. Winter on Mondays or Fridays and let us sell them to someone who can really use them? The store hours are from 10 a. m. until 5 p. m., but merchandise is not accepted after 3 p. m. All merchandise must be clean, in style, in season, and in good condition. The owner receives 75 per cent of the selling price agreed upon, and the YWCA receives the additional 25 per cent for handling. After we have kept merchandise for two months, it is automatically mark ed down 20 per cent. At the end of four months, if the merchan dise still has not sold, and the owner does not care to reclaim it, it becomes the property of the YWCA, and is marked down to half price to clear. Two Hundred Women Volunteer It is interesting to know that there are nearly 200 women who work on this project in a volun teer .capacity. Six work in the morning and the same number in the afternoon, either as reg ulars or whenever they are call ed on to help. Many hours are spent by the women who work behind the scenes to make this project a success. There "are two who tele phone the workers; two more who spend one or two days the first part of the month to go through the merchandise and mark down the price; two who do the bookkeeping moun tainous task which means pay ing all the current bills; figur ing amounts owed to owners of merchandise and writing checks for same, which amount to three or four hundred checks a month and then making the books balance. Another necessary job is typ ing of all file cards, enevlopes and master file and placing ad vertisements in the papw-each week. These are all very respon sible . jobs without which the shop could not function. The proceeds from the YWCA Budget shop have helped in a small measure to pay off the mortgage of the new YWCA building of which Salem is so proud and the volunteer work ers get a great deal of satisfac tion as a result of these many hours spent working here.

Viics Truman to Retire From Vrifing, to Continuo Television By JANE EADS AP Nrwsfttturrt Writer WASHINGTON l Margaret Truman, on the eve of publication of her first literary effort, an autobiography, says she will permanently retire from the writing field. , "Never again!" said Misa Truman, firmly and with an expression akin to distale. This, apparently, is a month of decision for the daughter of the former president. At the end of the week. Miss Truman also will! 10 fl, -rf- ft C. ttwiil wc wren, miss H uman aiso win , . , , retire from network radio, after a i KA iee .PnhnO 1 week stint. Since early Novem-t v 11 0 IWHUC Is Bride of ber she has acted as mistress of ceremonies and majorette domo of a magazine-type program, "Week Day," on the air five and one-half hours a day. "I'm going to do television," continued Miss Truman. "I like to do television and you can't do both. Besides, with television, you don't, have to start , work so early in the morning and I'm not like my father that way. Not at all." Writing a Difficult Task Miss Truman, in Washington for a party in her honor, said that she found writing her memoirs one of the most difficult tasks she's ever encountered. A taste for privacy is strong in . her, she explained, and sometimes she found it harrowing to relate even the most casual oc currences when she knew it would be read by strangers. What help ed, she said, was her habit of keeping diaries. In the first of a three-part series appearing in the current issue of Good Housekeeping magazine. Miss Truman touches wryly on the dis advantages and problems of being an "eligible" and spotlighted girl living in the White House. One de finite discourager of romance was the constant presence of a secret service man. Press Tried to Marry Her "The press," she writes, "yearn ed to get me married or at least engaged . . . there were times when I may have felt wistful to go along with this program, if only because it offered the chance of becoming a private citizen again, but actually I made up my mind early in the game that I would not marry when I lived in the White House.' Besides, she adds: "Consider the effect of saying good night to a boy at the door of the White House in a blaze of floodlights, with a secret service man in attendance. . "There's not much you can do except shake hands, and that's no way to get engaged!" Many Romance Rumors "It has always amazed me when I think of hnw many people I've been rumored engaged to," Miss Truman told an interviewer. "One night recently I went to the thea ter with a young man and said hello to a columnist when I didn't even think my escort was around. The next day, of course, there was a romance item with .his name right down to the middle initial. "The strangest one of all, though, was a printed report of my engagement to an upstate New York editor whom I had never even met. He finally telephoned me long distance and told me a little nervously that he did hav a fiancee named Margaret and that she wasn't taking the news any too well. But we couldn't figure out where the story started." Any romance at the moment? Miss Truman smiled. "I've been in p o 1 1 1 i c i long enough," she said, "to have learn ed how to chatter a lot and say nothing."
