By ELIZABETH TOOMEY
United Press Correspondent
New York (U.R) Perle
Mesta gives more speeches than
parties now, the famed hostess
said here on a two-speech, no
party visit.
Mrs. Mesta breezed into town
this week with her maid, a
jammed appointment book and
some well-thumbed notes on
Russia.
In one three-hour period she
attended a lunch given by the
Public Relations Society of
America, delivered the after
lunch speech, gave a 15-minute
interview before television cam
eras in her hotel suite and kept
a dental appointment.
"Go back to work?" she
gasped when someone asked if
she had considered working
again for the government. "Why,
I'm the hardest working girl you
know."
At the age of somewhere
around 65, the tireless woman
from Oklahoma has already
earned a succession of titles,
from "No. 1 hostess of the na
tion's capital" to "two-party-perle,"
and one diplomatic ap
pointment as U.S. Minister to
Luxemburg. And she shows no
signs of slowing down now.
Wants To Help
"I'm here to do what I can,"
she said. "I have no children. I
am free to help other people. I
don't know about any other dip
lomatic appointment. If the
right one came along and I
thought it would be helping my
country, I'd take it."
When she ended her four-year
stay in Luxemburg in 1953, after
the Republican administration
took over, she said her diplo
matic career was over "for the
time being." The speeches she
makes now are on Russia, which
she visited in the summer of
1953.
"And I get paid for the
speeches too," Mrs. Mesta said.
"I've made, oh, I don't know,
maybe 30 or 40 speeches in the
past year. I've traveled all over
the country. The money goes
into my own fund for educating
young people from Europe.
"I have nine students in col
lege here now from seven dif
ferent countries. Two are from
Luxemburg. I always favor Lux
emburg a little. Next fall I'll
have one from Japan. They don't
have to be brilliant students. I
think people who aren't so bril
liant get along all right . . .
sometimes better than the smart
ones."
Just Like Party
She approaches these fund
raising speeches the same way
she does a Washington, D.C.
party.
"I organize it ahead of time,"
she said. "My speech tonight at
the meeting of the Ukranian
Congress will be planned by
noon. Then I'll forget about it.
"A good party must be organ
ized ahead too, so the hostess
can enjoy her guests. It doesn't
take a bank book to give a good
party. All it takes -is for the
hostess to be hospitable and
plan it well."
Mrs. Mesta, who Inspired the
Broadway musical and movie
"Call Me Madam," returns to
the capital tomorrow, and next
month leaves on a trip to Eu
rope. The trip has State De
partment approval, but Mrs.
Mesta is mysterious about it's
purpose.
"I can't talk about it," she
said. "It is partly for pleasure
. . . but . . ." and with those
words Mrs. Mesta flashed her
famous smile and disappeared
for her next appointment.
Casual Cottons Set
Men's Style Note
Cotton is setting the style
trends for men's summer fash
ions, the National Cotton coun
cil advises.
Fashion reports from Palm
Beach, Nassau and other lead
ing resort centers indicate a
swing to colorful cotton in shirts,
walking shorts, slacks and odd
jackets. Among most-noted fab
rics are chino, denim and broad
cloth in conservative prints.
More and more men's sports
wear is coordiated. Slacks and
white or pastel shades are being
worn with jackets and blazers
in darker tones. Pink teamed
with black is a combination seen
at many yacht and country
clubs. Other popular combina
tions include dark pink with
red, light pink with orange and
even light pink with dark pink.
No longer a novelty, walking
shorts have been' accepted by
even the least experimental of
men, and they are being worn
by all age groups, with cotton
poplin the favored fabric.
The all-cotton business suit
has become popular in the no
padding, natural shoulder style,
which favors a center vent and
three buttons. New fabrics in
clude cords in dark town colors,
twill and wrinkle-resistant suit
ings. Trousers continue slimmer
and trimmer with 20-inch knees
and 18-inch cuffs prevailing.
Hitchhiking Found
Good Way To Travel
Peoria, 111. (U.R) Hitchhik
ing isn't a bad way to travel.
That's the conclusion of Wil
lard Maloney, Terre Haute, Ind.,
who arrived here recently after
a 13-hour trip from his home
town.
The former truck driver lost
both legs in a truck accident in
1952. He made the trip alone in
a wheel chair.
GIRL
SCOUTS
Erownie Fly-Up
Mrs. Al Carrara, assisted by
Mrs. Paul Haviland, had charge
of the Brownie fly-up cere
mony which took place in the
park by the scout house. One
hundred, seventy girls took part.
They entered into the friend
ship circle under a rainbow, led
by two former flower girls,
Tena Carrara and . Rosemary
Lewis.
Ten little girls dressed in
white stood on the steps leading
to the fairy, Rene Greene, who
with the magic touch of her
wand, changed each Brownie to
a girl scout. Scout laws were
then repeated.
The program closed .with the
singing of "Make New Friends"
and "The Girl Scout Promise."
All neighborhood chairmen and
leaders helped with this success
ful event.
Court Held
Mrs. Harold Gordon's Troop
10 and Miss Mary Lou White's
Troop 10A held a court of
awards at Washington school.
Pictures taken of Low Echo
camp were shown, also movies
of the girls' TV program which
preceded the First Class dinner.
Twenty-three girls received
badges they earned during the
past year. The mothers and
'. fathers were guests. Mrs.
Michael Rossi and Miss Mary
Aldrich were introduced and
spoke on the importance of
scouting and established camps.
Mrs. Elliott Duffy told of spe
cial interests at Low Echo this
summer. Ice cream and cookies
were served and the program
closed with all scout affiliates
forming a friendship circle, sing
ing taps.
Hear Ttalk
St. Mary's Girl Scouts met at
the Catholic church Tuesday
evening and heard an inspiring
talk on scouting and its ideals.
The fourth grade Brownies who
recently became Girl Scouts re
ceived their green sashes and
wore them to the activity room
in St. Mary's school where a
court of awards ceremony took
place. Mrs. Robert Lewis and
Mrs. Joseph Barrett led them in
singing scout songs.
Sue Ann Rutherford wel
comed the guests and introduced
the fifth grade scouts who re
ceived their second class badges
presented to them by Mrs. W. E.
Ralph. Mrs. Al Cararra, assisted
by Mrs. John Green, gave
awards to girls of the sixth
grade, followed by a song and
skit.
Members of the seventh grade
scouts received many first class
badges under the leadership of
Mrs. Frank Roelandt and Mrs.
George Gitzen.

Top-Notch Rescue Service
Operated by Team of Women
Sacramento, Calif. U.R)
A unique all-woman team, "the
ladies in white," is providing the
68-square mile Citrus Heights
section north of here with what
local officials call a top-notch
rescue service.
The 14 regular and four pro
bationary members make up a
team more formally known as
the Citrus Heights fire depart
ment rescue squad which re
sponds to fire and accident calls
in a radio-equipped rescue
wagon.
. The women in the trim white
uniforms regard their volunteer
work as a job that must be done
for the community. They never
know when the victim of an
accident may be a friend or
relative.
All of the women are married
and most have children. Mem
bers of the team range in age
from 29 to 45 and perform their
hard and sometimes risky tasks
despite a variety of full time
jobs. '
French Cooking Said
Good Taste, Easy Tricks
Monterey, Calif.. (U.R)
Nearly everyone knows some
thing about French cooking, ac
cording to Mrs. Suzanne Arm
strong, but they don't know
enough.
A former member of the New
York Wine and Food society,
Mrs. Armstrong is one of this
resort town's leading cooks and
a gourmet who uses almonds
and anchovies as most house
wives use salt.
But she says much of her
French cooking is only good
taste and easy tricks to make
a "good meal better."
For instance: "Deglacage for
perfect clear pan gravy with
roasted or sauteed meats. Set
cooked meat on warm platter.
Remove surplus fat from cook
ing pan. Pour in liquid water,
stock or wine and blend. Re
duce liquid to about half.
"Or mirepoix chopped raw
vegetables onions, carrots, cel
ery, parsley and favorite
herbs placed under roasting
meat, for flavor and as a rack.
"Or again for brown crust
on sauteed food, add paprika to
flour used in coating dry-surfaced,
saute at low heat."
The captain, Mrs. Kathleen
Robertson, is a florist. Other
members of the group include
the owner of a drug store, the
operator of a pheasant farm, a
store clerk, a service station at
tendant, a garage employe and
two members of the fire district.
"The women do a top job and
do it with dispatch," . said Fire
Chief Gene Desimone. "Just the
fact they are there in those
crisp white uniforms assure the
victims of accidents."
Even the state highway patrol
which originally had misgivings
about the project now admits
the women "do a good job.''
The women are on call 24
hours a day, their homes are
linked to the central fire alarm
station by special telephones.
Mrs. Robertson keeps hers at the
head of her bed.
"The calls may come at any
time," she said, "but most of
them seem to be after 2 a.m.
"I've seen more than one girl
at a wreck with half her hair in
curlers and the other half lying
damp and straight," Mrs. Rober
son said. "And I must admit I've
charred a cake or two in the
oven while responding to an
accident," she continued.
