Stores which employed liv
models in their window displays
seemed to have been eliminated
by the judges, because the
judges felt the use of live talent
did not conform to the points
on which the judging was based.
At least two downtown stores,
Montgomery Ward and The
Moderne, used live models in
their window displays.
Dancing at Cuiiilol Center
Models at Wards were Belly
Boies, Dolores Larkins, Jeanne
Artz and Louise McMillen. Mod
erne models were Suran Greer.
Janie Baker, Becky Minty, Kay
Minty, Sandra Olson, Daphne
Gchlar, Jimmie Tuor and Sharon
Tuor.
Highlights of the fall opening
show at the Capitol shopping
center were the colorful folk
dances presented on the Sears.
Roebuck parking lot, and a
girls' fashion show by Sears
models. Eleven thousand per
sons attended the show there.
Girls who appeared in the
fashion show wore Rita Lancas
ter, Lois Braasch, Louise Jones.
Velma Davis,. Virginia Hilde-
brand and Theo Welsh. Men
were Ted Davey and Gordon
Christenson.
Attracting big crowds was the
lighting and show of models at
the main Montgomery Ward
store. There display of "warm'
colored fashions were displayed
under amber lights, while "cool
colored fashions were shown in
a winter scene under blue and
grey lights. Models in each
window were changed every 10
minutes.
Autumn Keynotes
An autumn keynote waj pre-'
dominate in nearly all store
window displays. Football,
school and hunting scenes were
depicted in many windows,
while setting of fall leaves and
ferns adorned other show win
dows. Though all stores were closed
to business, a few were open for
internal inspection, and Stev
ens and Son jewelers handed
out 3000 roses to guests.
Persons who attended a sim
ilar fall opening in Porlland re
cently agreed that the local af
fair was more colorful and in
clusive in nature than the Port
land opening.

Now the TUC leaders are on

Cripps has warned that wage

benefits of devaluation which is

MILITARY MEN
AND VETERANS
Ching said he has no plans
now for further meetings with
union and companies for the
time being expecting them to
go to bargaining with each other
on their own as the president re
quested. The president's request was
made in a letter he sent to Ching
in the midst of government
sponsored efforts to work out a
settlement of the dispute over
pensions and insurance.
His letter stressed the impor
tance to the nation of averting
a crippling steel strike.
Every possible move, Mr. Tru
man said, should be taken to av
ert such a stoppage: therefor
he was asking the new strik
deadline extension.
Mr. Truman's letter said he is
in "fullest agreement" with th
statement made by his steel
fact-finding board in recom
mending a 10-cent hourly pension-insurance
program.
Chint? had visited the Whita
House earlier In the day to re
port to Mr. Truman on his ef
forts to head off a strike.
Presumably Ching suggested
at that time that Mr. Truman
ask for a new truce.
Chung's talk with the presi
dent delayed for 45 minutes th
mediation chief's scheduled re
sumption of talks with union
and industry representatives.
There were reports that con
ciliators working on the case
were eyeing a reported offer of
an employer-paid pension plan
the automobile industry as
possibly offering an avenue for
a steel settlement.
