The ties may be gtiiped or plain, loud or conservative, but they are becoming a must for the German man, particularly at parties or restaurants. Evening gowns now have the Communists' blessing, too, so long as they do not reveal too much of the bust. But cocktail dresses still are frowned upon. Girls who wear dresses em phasizing the bust are accused of trying to look like "American pin-up girls." And in the West, the Communists charge, girls don cocktail dresses just to get men to buy drinks for them. The return of ties and eve ning gowns is part of a Oovern ment campaign to convince East Germans that Communism and fashion go together. For a long time East German Communists neglected their ap pearance and their manners. The idea seemed to be to dress as baaly as possible and as much like everyone else as possible.

But now the Communist press lmo?t daily advises that ties and Marx are not incompatible. Taking the hint, the government-operated Cafe Nord in East Berlin bars tieless customers. For those who still object to wearing ties on the street, the cafe lends them to guests at the closk room for a deposit of five marKS ($1.25). Women's pages and magazines, in the past completely devoted to politics, now carry fashion hint? and models of evening gowijs. Even the Taegliche Runds- chaj, official Soviet High Com mission newspaper, gave the H line the Kremlin's blessing. "The H-line must be evaluated as the sign of a new fashion that cancels out the American pin-up girl ideal" the Rundschau's women's page said.

Curb Food, Save Husband Says Harvard Nutritionist By GAY PAULEY United Press Correspondent Hollywood Beach, Fla. (U.PJ A famous nutritionist says that women are killing their hus bands with culinary kindness. Almost every woman takes pride in setting an abundant table and seeing her husband take second helpings. But Dr. Frederick J. Stare says that a woman runs less chance of being widowed if her pride suffers while hubby's waistline stays slim. Stare, 44, chairman, depart ment of nutrition. Harvard School of Public Health, said that contrary to popular belief this Is not the healthiest nation in the world particularly for men past 40. Wives Outlive 'em Statistically, he said. In an in terview during a recent food conference, the American male at 45 can look forward to fewer birthdays than his counterpart in. several European countries Norway, Denmark and Italy, to name three. The Harvard nutritionist said that two of every three deaths of men past 40 are caused by heart or circulatory disease. "Overweight is one reason why." he said. "In a way, our women are making widows of themselves . . . just by over feeding their men." The nutritionist said that a man of 50 in' good health and of average weight has a good chance of living to nearly 70, the present life expectancy average of the male population. "But if in the next' year or two," he said, "he adds 25 oounds, he has cut five years off his life." Woman's life span is longer, ard strangely enough, Stare said, excess weight isn't as dam aging to a woman's health in the 40's as it is to a man's. "Her obesity catches up with her later," Stare said, "although medical science doesn't know why. How To Keep Husband What can a woman do to keep from being widowed? "First, she will have to curb TV Stars Good Guide For Dress, Says Expert the urge to over-set the table and show off her cooking tal ent," said the nutritionist. "Keep the gooey desserts, rich gravies, sauces and other calorie laden foods out of hubby's sight. . "If she must 'create, let it bd tasty treatments of low-calorie dishes. "Home-made chocolate cake is just too tempting for a man," Stare said with a laugh. One way to keep huoby from gaining weight is -to make the servings smaller. "And curb the urge to Insist ; on second helpings. Stare said. "When hubby says 'no, thank you,' don't insist." Gadgets Help Grandma To Keep Young, Alert Dallas, Tex.

Here's How to Cook Bumper Crop of Rice Chicago (U.R) To cook rice snovy-white add a teaspoon of lemon juice or V teaspoon cream of tartar to the cooking water, says Mrs. Barbara Mc Grata., nutrition specialist at the University of Illinois.
