8a The Bend Bulletin, Thursday. March 24, 1955 Italy's New Hotel Project Designed to Boost Tourism ROME (UP) Italy's ox , perimental chain of 37 new Jolly Hotels in out-of-the way places proved a big success in 19j3, and officials say the total will be brought up to 43 by the end of this year. A project of Count Caetano M'ir zotto, the "enlightened" Vicena textile magnate, the hotels an1 one-third financed by the govern , ment in its attempt at economic reform for the backward areas of the peninsula. The hotels are mostly located in beautiful but undeveloped places. They vary in size, but offer first class facilities in towns where as a rule no tourist facilities ever existed. I Spokesman for the Jolly Hotels -in -Rome is a prominent Catholic .layman, Giovanni Vaccnrl, a Knight of Malta. He is vice-presl-dent of the hotel corporation as .well as a member of Mnrzotlo's -textile organization. r "Although our hotels are de- signed to meet the budgets of average tourists," Vaccari said, '"we have alreudy attracted a a number of celebrities. At our 58 - room hotel in Trani, on ' the south Adriatic, wo hosted U. 8. Ambassador Clare Boothe Luce jFashion Jewelry jMany Colored The color wheel spins a bright forecast of spring's fashion jewel- ry. Wedgewood blues are sparked ' with white.

Neck J laces feature large blue beads robin's egg size speckled with J white. Others use tiny purple and pink glass beads, flecked with sil J ver or gold. , Beads are puckered, popcorn ; like, hollow, lacy or cylindrical. There are mock seed pearls, .very delicate, and pale glazed beads, irregularly sized. Naturally, with so much bead news, there is a new necklace design for spring: the 30 inch "lei" or opera length neck lace muy be worn as u single strand or looped double as a choker. , The "lei" is usually thicker than a beaded strund and is fashioned with clusters of beads or liny lowers. Most are matched with parrlngs and bracelets. I and a party of 10 people. The I same hotel also accommodated the King and Queen of Greece." Booxt To Tourist Vaccari explained that in south ern Italy, the crisis area where the government is busily working on reform und economic improve ment, the Cassa del Mezzogiomo (government agency for the reg ion) provides financial backing for the venture. In other parts of Italy, the national tourist agency pro vides needed backing. "Imagine what this means In the sense of tourism," Vaccari said. "Up till now, almost all Ital ian tourist trade was limited to the major cities like Naples, Rome, Florence and Venice. You could read all about the beuutiful Greek temple at Agrigenlo, but there wasn't a decent place to stay nearby, and no places ulong the highway between Naples and your destination. Now, tourists can travel down Italy to the farth est point of Sicily und find good places to slay all along the way. The first Jolly hotels opened last May, all designed by the same architect along functional lines, but vurying In size from 22 rooms to a projected 152-room hotel now Sicily. Kach Jolly Hotel has an "Amer ican bar" and a tiled swimming pool, colorful modem dining room und lounges, convenient bedrooms and ample garage facilities. New Construction Called "Auto-Stelli" (auto stars) by the Touring Club d'ltalia, the new hotels ure placed away from the main highwuys. In Salerno, for example, the Jolly Hotel sits com fortably on the northern tip of Salerno's historic crescent beach Priced in the first-class range, a room costs aiiyhere from 050 lire for a single room without a bath at Trani to 4,000 lire for a double room with bath nt Trieste. In each Jolly Hotel, two-thirds of the rooms huve baths, showers, warm water, and telephone. One- third have only lavatories, with other hygienic facilities shared on u central corridor. Now under construction are ho tels at Palermo, Ascoli - Piceno, Iiurlettu, Olbia, lUigusa and Tra- puni. Already in operation are hotels at Mnntova, Pnnna, Ravenna. Tri este. Vicenzn, Pascara, S.

Shoes Feature Lower Cut Lines The smartly dressed male will go stepping out this spring and summer in new shoes featuring lower cut lines. Here Is the dom inant trend in styling of mascu line footwear for the coming sea sons, taking its cue from the slim mer, trimmer silhouette that will prevail in men's clothing. Happily, the new styling, aided and abetted by newer and light weight leathers for soles as well as uppers, and by built-in air con ditioning, is bringing the male the; most comfortable shoes he has' ever worn." i The new "lower line" is being featured on shoes for town wear and casual wear alike,, and in a greater variety of colorful mate rials than ever before. Lighter weight calfskins and cordovans, soft suedes and fabric meshes in combination with leather are among popular materials. Color trends In men's shoes for the coming season are In step with mounting popularity of the darker hued clothing, with such In teresting combinations as charcoal and light grey and contrasting browns to be seen In the stores. Other colors from which men will choose this season are dark er blues, black brown and black green, especially for wearing with charcoal hued suits and slacks. The Italian influence has reached the American male's feet this year, according to the Leather Industries of America. Many of new casuals have the modified ta pered toe, the broader looking forepart and shorter backpart. These are mainly in slip-ons, which are as comfortable as they look, being crafted of very soft, supple leathers. Air conditioned footwear fur men achieves a new standard of warm weather comfort this year with the development of the new woven in a variety of surprisingly interesting weaves that actually breathe, as do the increasingly popular perforated leuther shoes.

Random tweeds, from crisp and nubby to soft and fine, are seen most; but there is a generous supply of herringbones and other patterns with quite smooth surfaces.
