(U.R) Tiny Windham college is probably the only college in the country where faculty almost outnum bers the students. Enrollment at the proudly dif ferent school has often num ered only 12 or 15 never more than 40 while the faculty in cludes 10 instructors. The two-year, co-educational school, housed in three large old houses in Putney Village, specializes in "cross-exchanges" of American and foreign stu dents. In its first three years, less than half of Windham's students were from North America. Its English courses are repre sentative of the difference in its structure and aims. A doctor from Columbia became fluent in English within nine weeks. An other Colombian compressed his courses into three months and now teaches English to students in his native country. Around Hollywood By ALINE MOSBY United Press Correspondent Hollywood - (U.R) Hollywood stars have been blasted for near ly everything, and today a fig ure expert took a look at their ' b a c k views and an- n o u n c e d: "They have t e r ribie pos ture and Mari lyn Monroe is the worst slouch of all." Aline Mosby The famous wiggly, going-away-look of Mari lyn's has sold many a movie ticket " But posture teacher Eloise English, who was on this year's 10 - best - dressed - women list, lamented that a girdleless, slouching back view is "simply vulgar." "Maybe men like those girls for-one night dates, but men don't marry that type," she said firmly. Shouldn't Wear Slacks "Most of the stars in this town have terrible posture. They never should wear slacks. They have a weird model slump and it's the worst thing for the body to walk that way." "And clothes always look bet ter over a girdle. It keeps you from having that vulgar, Mari lyn Monroe appearance. . Designer Jax Hanson started the national vogue for ladies' "toreador pants" four years ago when he made skin-tight slacks here. The stars buy them by the armful, but Miss English rolled her eyes in horror at the thought. The "slouch and sloppy" stars with bad postures on her list include Ann Sothern, Shelley Winters, Debra Paget and Jane Russell. After long thought, Miss Eng lish listed some stars with good posture who can wear slacks or anything: Loretta .Young, Irene Dunne, Audrey Hepburn, Grace Kelly and Deborah Kerr. Figure Salons Miss English, a former lieu tenant commander in the Waves, has made a fortune opening fig ure salons across the country. She visited here to inspect some Hollywood parties, and I no ticed she sits very erect, wears a hat and gloves and limits those calorie-heavy drinks. ''Diana Lynn has a lovely fig ure, but terrible posture," she continued. "I notice on TV she lets her stomach stick out. "The stars who have been ex posed to Broadway have better posture and are better groomed. But so many here look as if they just jumped out of bed! "Why, they don't even wear hats." The figure expert thinks many women let their figures go after 30 because "of some deep-rooted mental block." i "In the Waves women would exercise the required 90 days and then quit," she said. "They never kept it up." Deepest known caves in the world are located in France. mursdar July 7. 19S5 ' MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE FIVE Amendments to Unemployment Law in Oregon Effective Soon nPart of that is figjg EfflgjajgPooo" ...I like the way the bank keeps it working Tft TCI FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF PORT!

Now I've got it all paid back, and I'm putting my extra money in a savings account. Maybe now some other Joe who needs a car, or a house, or a washing machine can use my money.

But the reserve fund status June 30 did determine that the 1956 tax rate will increase sub stantially, according to the State Unemployment C o m p ensation commission. With unemployment reserves of $53,500,000, about 5.7 per cent of the average annual cov ered payrolls, schedule D of the new law, will increase next year's tax rates .3 per cent for eligible employers having a re serve ratio of from 2 to 11 per cent. No change will come from others except that those with minus reserve ratio will pay penalty rates of 3 per cent for the first time since the third quarter of 1941. Provisions Unchanged During the first month of the 1955-6 benefit year, which offi cially opened this week, provi sions for unemployment compen sation will remain unchanged. Initial claims, taken during the past two weeks at local employ ment offices, indicate fewer without summer jobs than since 1952. Higher benefit schedules and higher minimum qualifying wages will start Jan. 1. But new disqualification and other limit-, ing features go into effect Aug. 3, just 90 days after adjournment of the Legislature. Claimants discharged for misconduct or failing to apply for or accept suitable work will be liable next month to a forfeiture of benefits in addition to a maximum eight week disqualification period. s The "forfeiture" clause will not apply to those leaving jobs without good , cause, but they may be disqualified up to eight weeks and they must report to local officers each -week to re ceive wages in excess of their weekly benefit amount. Instead of starting disqualifications when the act occurred, the new law operates only during the period when the claimant otherwise is eligible for benefits. Fraud Cancels Credits Court convictions of fraud will cancel all prior wage credits and will make the claimant ineligible until the unemployment fund is reimbursed. The current disqual ification period up to 26 weeks will remain. Workers who receive vacation pay, dismissal allowances, guar anteed wages, old age insurance or other retirement pay, will be entitled to benefits only on a pro rata basis. . Certain retired em ployees will have to prove at tachment to the labor market. More benefits will be charged against employers' accounts af ter Aug. 3. Nearly half of the 37 per cent., of benefits now charged to the pool will be added to individual firm charges, it is estimated, thus reducing firm re serves and increasing tax rates. Hire Handicapped Kiwanians Urged An appeal to Kiwanis club members, as an employer group, to participate in the "employ the handicapped" program was made by C. A. Guderian yester day at the service club's weekly luncheon meeting. Guderian is Jackson county chairman for the President's committee on employing the physically handicapped. - While a special week is plan ned to emphasize the program, Jackson county participation will be through 'the entire year, Guderian reported. " , It pays to put everybody to work, he stated. Rehabilitation and hiring of the handicapped has proved profitable for . the country, he added. A motion picture, "America's Untapped Asset," was shown for Guderian by Carlos Morris of Conger-Morris funeral home. The meeting was at Rogue Valley Country club. , ; Weather Bureau Job . - : . - - Opportunities Listed The U. S.
