Page 8 Section 1 THE CAPITAL JOURNAE Salem, Oregon", Tuesday, January 1, 1957 Times Snnare Crowd & tj: . r O ' Grandmotlier-Type Is Champ Float Builder for Rose Parade By AMNE MOSBY I'nilrd Press Hollywood Writer HOLLYWOOD ( UP -When the floats roll by the TV cameras, today in the Pasadena Tourna ment of Roses Parade, you may spot a quiet, gray-haired Brand mother sitting on a street corner. Although .Mrs. Isahelle Coleman looks as if she should be home knitting on the front porch, she's Pasadena's champion float-builder for the famous parade. Always Wins For more than so years she's designed and "produced" the i mammoth displays of flowers, I and every year since 1910 her' I floats have won at least one I prize. This year she has six floats in me parade, ana in view ol the estimated 60 million TV viewers for the event, she's a major TV "scenery" builder. The advent of TV to the Ttose Parade has altered the floats. "This year some of my clients wanted their floats designed with TV in mind." Mrs. Coleman said as she watched college students glue carnations onto one float be fore the parade began. "that means strong colors red,yr-nw, blue and definite out lines. Otherwise in the long shots you can't see what the float rep resents. "But other clients ignore TV and want their lloats made of ex pensive flowers, which are the pastels orchids, roses and so forth." Her float for the city of Long Beach features a white swan which Mrs. Coleman thinks will catch the TV cameras.- Another Coleman float, for Occidental Life Insurance, consists of three 30 foot wide "flowers" made of hun dreds of blossoms, lis pastel col ors may be lost on TV but every body tells her this will win a prize. .Mrs. Coleman starts in June to design her floats. The clients ap prove her sketches. Then she hires workmen to construct Ihe outline in chicken wire and metal rods over special body-less automobiles in a huge quonset hut that is her workroom." I Frenchmen Grieve as Gas Goes Up in Smoke SAINT NAZAIRE, France Ufi It was a sad sight for motorists suffering the pangs of fuel ration ingsome 123,000 gallons of gaso line went up in flames Monday nigni at ine uonges refineries. Firemen and volunteers battled eight hours before bringing the fire under control. France instituted gas rationing because of shortages result i n g from the closure of the Suez Canal. Since the Rose Parade has been shown on TV, viewers write Mrs. Coleman their suggestions for the floats. Last year one man sug gested she reconstruct Yellow stone Park, complete with geyser. "Now you know you can't put a geyser on a float," she sighed. Court 'Elects' R.I. Governor PROVIDENCE, R. I. un-Demo- n,,., nonnic .1.
