SIXTEEN MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE
Sunday, April 20, 1951
Convention Notables
Cautioned to Dress
Right for Television
New York U.R Green, blue
and pink shirts with gray or tan
uits and pancake Number Five
makeup for bald spots will be the
rule for political stars at the
Democratic and Republican na
tional conventions and all be
cause of television.
An estimated 80,000,000
Americans will be looking in on
the two big shows at Chicago in
July, and television's foremost
makeup experts warned that
such errors as appearing In a
striped seersucker suit could be
Just at harmful as a bad speech
to the candidates.
Do's, Don'ii Llil.d
They laid down a list of "dos"
and "dont's" as rigid as a party
platform, including an outright
ban on white, black and yellow.
All four networks will have
authorities on T-V makeup read
ily available for candidates and
other bigwigs who want their
services. In advance, however,
they dropped these hints.
A delegate will do well to get
his hair cut one week before con
vention time, no more and no
less. Only actors, they said, can
get by with that shaggy look,
and a brand new trim leaves too
sharp a dividing line.
Btripad Suits Out
The list of don'ts included just
as firm a rejection of any striped
uits, but particularly those in
which the contrast is between
harp white and coal black. They
explained that such a suit makes
an Image on the T-V screen
which shivers like a delegate
left out in the cold. Solid black
also is frowned on because it
produces a shimmering "halo
around the edges. Yellow and
whita do the same thing, only
in reverse, so the halo looks a
drab shade of gray.
Lavradar Shirts Approved
The happy colors for men's
hirti arc green, blue and pink.
Lavender isn't bad, either, al
thoug tha experts freely agreed
they didn't expect to see candi
dates show up in many purple
nirts. Their top recommenda
tion was: "A light gray suit with
a blue shirt, dark tie with no
'Jiggly' or small dotted patterns
and shoes with not too much of a
polish."
In general, the starts of the
convention will be well advised
to wear a minimum of makeup,
because the experts feel too good
a job could make a stalwart can
didate for the White House look
more like a matinee charmer.
Face powder will be dark and
applied lightly, to eliminate five-
o clock shadow.
Gen. Dwlght D. Elsenhower,
If he attends the GOP meetings,
will have to have some dark
powder rubber on his head, be
cause bald spots glisten much
too vividly and take Interest
way from what the speaker is
laying. The same suntan shades
will also be applied to such
notable scalps as Sen. Robert
Taft's and Gov. Adlal Steven
son's. The final commandment ban
ished Jewelry for both male and
female delegates, because dan
gling ear rings, brilliant tie pins
or showy rings are Just as dis
tracting to the audience as a bald
pate
"If the candidate has a lucky
stickpin or a marriage ring he
positively won't take off," one
expert said, "we'll explain to
him that the best thing to do is
cover it thoroughly with soft
soap.
Gov. Warren Planning
One Day in Portland
Portland (U.R) Gov. Earl
Warren of California will make
a one-day "scouting" trip to Port
land April 25 to meet the state
leaders In his campaign for the
Republican presidential nomina
tion in the May 18 primary.
Frank S. Sever, Portland at
torney and close friend of War
ren, said the California governor
would arrive by plana from Sac
ramento early in the moming of
April 25 and leave that night
