Crochet Bath Set
Men Splurge on Clothes Too;
Socks Listed at $8.00 a Pair
- By Elizabeth Toomey
United Press Correspondent
New York tU.R) Men can go
on shopping sprees too, and
some of the items they can pur
chase for their personal ward
robes would, put any mink
minded woman "shopper : to
shame. ,;-- .
There is a $36 men's handker
chief, for instance. It is neither
gold plated nor inscribed with a
treasure map just a plain,
white cotton handkerchief to be
folded neatly in the breast
pocket. ..'" .. .
And how about a pair of
men's ribbed lisle socks for
$8.50? Not many women, even
the most budget-free bride,
would spend more than $2.00
for a pair of stockings.
Just to check on how - the
other half spands, we stopped
by a shop that prides itself on

Quality a Word
"Quality is a word that has
little meaning today," Peter
Knize,' 29, the owner of the ex
clusive tailoring company, said
as he escorted his vistor around
his two-story shop.
"But when we say quality, we
mean quality." That's when he
got to the handkerchief counter.
"We do not buy these by the
dozen but by the piece," he said,
displaying one of the $36 hand
kerchiefs. "They are made in
France from hand spun cotton."
, The $8.50 lisle 'socks are hand
made abroad too. Then there are
other wardrobe items which cus
tomers as varied as the Shah of
Iran and Marlon Brando order
made 'up iby Knize's own crafts
men. Marlon Brando, did you
says?
Knize, who pronounces his
name Kuh-nee'-zha, smiled at
the surprise Brando's name
caused on the customer list.
"He dresses very well now,"
he said. "He got tired of his
T-shirt and blue jeans reputa
tion." Vests Cost Extra
Brando and the Iranian ruler
and any other customers who
can afford it choose suits that
cost from $290 up. That's just
for the trousers and jacket. If
a fellow wants a vest, that's
S20 extra.
Knize features undershorts
made of fabric to match the
shirt. The shah, he said, ordered
24 shirts and matching shorts
on his recent visit to the U.S.,
and also 30 pairs of pajamas,
and 32 other "garments," in
cluding suits, ski suits, tennis
clothes and jackets.
At those prices, Knize and his
tailors reserve the right to re
fuse if a man comes in and asks
for a suit with heavily-padded
shoulders and a generally zoot
suit cut. The family has been
making clothes for royalty and
well-h e e 1 e d businessmen for
nearly a century, all the way
from Vienna, where Knize's
grandfather began the business,
to "the present store.
"We cannot afford to make a
bad suit," the present heir to
the family tradition said.
Oh, yes, and men pay $10.75
to have a suit pressed at this
fabulous men's fashion head
quarters. -It's a real quality
pressing.
School Children

Many interesting hobbies were
on display Friday evening, Feb
ruary 18, at the West Side

varied sea shells, rocks, dolls
of foreign lands, several model
cars and planes and numerous

The hobby show is an annual
project given by the students
with the cooperation of the

raising money for the student

Japanese Home Economist is Speaker
For Luncheon of University Women Here
Mrs. Masu 'Takeda, Japanese
graduate student in the. school
of home economics at Oregon
State college, was guest speak
er for the annual fellowship
luncheon of Medford branch,
American Association of Uni
versity Women, Saturday after
noon at the Medford hotel.
Mrs. Takeda holds the Ore
gon Business and Professional
Women's state scholarship for
the current year and ' last year

can Home Economics association
scholarship.
Mrs. Takeda - is ' an instructor
on the faculty of Japan Women's
university. In addition to being
a home economist, she is also a
licensed second class architect
in Japan and is a graduate of
the College of Technology, Was
eda university, in Tokyo.
Mrs. Takeda spoke on the cli
mate, terrain, food, housing con
ditions, clothing, schools, agri
culture, industry and economic
conditions in Japan. Japan is in
the process of Westernization
and particularly is this evident
in the younger generation of
Japanese.
"Much of the housework of
the average Japanese housewife
would be . considered less than
drudgery to the American counter-part
because household elec
trical appliances considered es
sential by the 'American house
wife are practically-non-existent
in Japan," Mrs. , Takeda stated.
"There is neither the electricity
available to provide power to
operate them, nor the . money
necessary to buy the products,"
she added.
Staples in the Japanese diet
are fish, rice and soy beans,
which are served three times a
day. Mrs. Takeda said she was
thoroughly enjoying the variety
of American food, and particu
larly the American' hospitality
shown her everywhere she went.
To conclude her speech," Mrs.
Takeda; demonstrated typical
Japanese dress, donning an es
pecially, elaborate kimono and
accompanying sashes which, in
Japan is a costume reserved for
social functions.
Special guests at the luncheon
were introduced, many of whom
were members of the local BPW
chapter, as well as its presi
dent, Mrs. George Watson.
Mrs. Takeda and several
AAUW members were guests at
a breakfast at the home of Mrs.
Emerson Anderson and an after
noon " tea at the home of 'Mrs.
Stuart McQueen in honor of the
fellowship student. '
Mrs. William Knope was
chairman for the fellowship lun
cheon, and assisting her were
Mrs. McQueen, Mrs. ; Joseph
