Set a pail of water inside a newly-painted room arid the paint odor will disappear faster. By ELIZABETH TOOMEY United Press Correspondent New York (U.R)' Thous ands of , girls each year hear someone say, "you're pretty enough to be a model," and dream of the fame and five- figure income of a top model like Jean Patchett. But the average onlooker has little idea of wSat it takes to climb to a $50-an-hour fee, as' Miss Patchett and a handful of other models have done. v ' "Being pretty has almost noth ing to do with it," one top fash ion photographer said. "Come along with me for a day," Miss Patchett suggested. "Then you can see for yourself what we do." She is a tall, willowy blonde who stands five feet nine inch es in her stocking feet, weighs 117 pounds and had had no mod eling experience when she ar rived here from . Preston, Md., seven years ago at the age of 21. She married a young bank er, Louis Auer, four years ago. Day Starts At 10 a.m. Jean, accompan ied by this reporter, arrived for her first appointment, which was to be a two-hour photo graphy session for a fashion magazine. She had no idea what she'd be wearing. . For the first hour she knelt on a white leather bench in a bathing suit. She changed ex pressions often, shitted her po sition occasionally, and never was caught unawares when the camera clicked, although,., the photographer snapped pictures rapidly with a small camera. "It may look instinctive, but I learned it by hard work," she said later, changing into a white sharkskin dress. "The .first three months after I came here I didn't work at all. Then I signed with Eileen Ford's agency. She told me to lose weight and one of her other models taught me to put on my eyes. From then on I worked all the time." By "putting on her eyes," she meant expertly outlining the up turned slant at the corners and using just the right amount of eye shadow. Now she also dark ens a natural mole on the corn er of her right eye. , "She has a sense of fashion," the photographer said. "S h e makes a plain white dress look elegant. On another pretty' girl it could look like nothing." "I imagine different ' situa tions," Jean explained later. "For that dress I imagined I was walking into a room filled with people, and I was "the most ele gant woman in the room." . After a calorie-conscious lunch of ground beef, Jean began her afternoon schedule at a second studio. - v - , "For this picture you are to wrap yourself In a towel and hold the cologne bottle," -the photographer said. Jean frown ed. She and other top models shun lingerie poses and anything else"Hhey think undignified. "The towel can be up to your shoulders,", he added hastily. So she spent the next hour perched uncomfortably on a; battered green wooden bench, clutching a giant-sized bathtow el around her with one hand and holding a plastic bottle gently next to her cheek. "A top model like Jean has the ability to make any given idiotic pose come to life and look natural,'' tne photographer said. From there she took a cab she spends $30 a week on taxi fares to another studio to pose in a demure organdy dress for a pattern catalogue and finally to a fourth studio to be photo graphed in spring hats. Then she went home to their one-bedroom apartment and started dinner just like a. few million other working wives.
