SIX MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Manhattan Movie .Maker Suggests Women Direct By ELIZABETH TOOMEY United Presi Correspondent More women should become director, son of a famous actor, action-packed stories of male adventure, "Treasure of Sierra Ma- dre," "Red Badge of Courage, women directors could give "a new "A woman's knowledge of woman s ether women would be very val uable," Huston said. "Women know better how women think and act, particularly when they are alone." The rangy director, who strides down the streets of Man hattan in the same tweedy, sturdy clothes he wears between movies as a country squire in DUV Plans Box Packing For Shut-in Members The next meeting of the Elta Deuel Hubbs Tent Daughters of Union Veterans is scheduled for Dec. 13.

I .-V ift - ' Largest Selection of Luggage in Town! WE GIVE S&H GREEN STAMPS W4 directors, John Huston, a movie and a director who specializes in and his latest, "Moby Dick, says dimension" to love stories. Ireland, is accustomed to people asking him, "What do you have against women?" Women Braver The suspicion that he was anti-woman grew after he made several woman-1 ess pictures, Huston explained. Actually he is just the opposite. He thinks women are "braver and more dependable than men in most situations." The reasons they have not had more success in the directing field, he suggested, "is "uncon scious prejudices." "If a woman makes a bad pic ture, it is a black mark," Hus ton said. "If a man makes a bad picture, it's just another bad pie ture." Women as directors of love stories would get away from the male cliches, Huston sug gested. The ability to observe closely the actions of people around you is more important to a director than experience in acting, Hus ton said. Any woman who feels she could put together a believ able movie "could acquire the technical know-how in a week's time," he insisted. i Spices Subject of Herb Society Talk ' Mrs. Leroy Cline lectured at the meeting of the Rogue Valley Herb Society on "The Romance of Spices."

Tastes in hair styles are as regional as tastes in food, one group' of ex perts reports. Women of the Southwest and West coast, for instance, prefer a carefree coiffure to fit their outdoor type of life. Women along the East and West coasts are the first to try something new, such as a bold change in color. Women of the Midwest tend to the conservative in both style and color, seeking some thing comfortable and accept able to their friends. These are some of the findings reported by 14 stylists employed by a firm which operates beauty salons in 200 department stores from coast to coast. The 14, who travel most of the time, gathered in New York recently for a planning session and to discuss hair style prefer ences. They reported that New York, Miami and Atlanta rate as the top styling centers, with San Francisco and Beverly Hills, Calif., not far behind. They rat ed New England states, Pennsyl vania and Virginia as ultra-conservative. The stylists said that although many women in the Southwest have plenty of money to spend on hair styling, most of them aren't interested in a new hair do except for some big social event. They rated Tulsa, Okla., as an exception. Dallas is a clothes fashion center, the stylists said, but is not a leader in hair styling. Hair fashion preferences in the Los Angeles area are affect ed by the glamor of Hollywood but not as you might think. The stylists reported that Los Angeles women, because of their proximity to movie stars, bend over backwards not to copy them.
