By WILLIAM EWALD United Press Correspondent New York CU.RI Next to dia monds, a girl's best friend is probably a fellow like Richard Willis. Particularly, with Leap Year around the corner. Willis, a 15-year veteran of the radio and TV wars, is the kind of conjurer who can make your Aunt Tessie look like Gina Whatever-her-name is. Well, al most. "Actually," says Willis, "There's no such thing as an ugly woman. They're all essen tially nice-appearing. And the American woman has more flair than any other woman in the world." Willis, presently employed at WRCA-TV here, runs the sort of video shindig which caters to gals with personal redecorat ing problems. A former make up consultant for four movie studios, Willis estimates he has advised some 500,000 chicks and hens over the years. From Bow Legs To Speech He has tackled such problems as bow legs, knock knees, bumpy knuckles, buck teeth, knobby elbows and loving cup ears. He has handed out free advice on make-up and jewelry, dress, diet and even diction. "The two biggest problems as far as most women are con cerned, pointed out Willis, are weight and hair. Many women are inclined to be heavy. I don't call them fat fat is some thing they have in them. "Hair style is always a prob lem, too. The average woman is always looking for a new style without realizing that what may look attractive on another wom an may not be good for her." Although Willis tabbed Amer ican women "the best dressed in the world," he unhesitatingly labeled their little sisters, the teen-agers, as his principal prob lem. "I recently visited some schools and all I could see were blemishes of ugly clothes. Teen age girls have the hysterical ap proach to dress. They're copy cats all of them seem to wear dungarees and loafers." Other Breakdowns Breaking down the other brackets of women who come to him for advice, Willis saw things this way: "Girls in the bracket just over 21 usually dress for men that's because they're looking for one. Their problem is buying the number of clothes they need on a limited budget. All I can sug gest is buying three good basic changes for each season. "The young married woman faces a different problem. She has to dress to please both her husband and the neighborhood, also on a small budget. Three basic seasonal outfits should be the rule here, too. Also a black coat rather than a colored one." The woman in the 40-plus bracket, said Willis, should be the best-dressed. But sadly enough, he has found this isn't always so. "Her problem is over weight and the fact that her l grown children want her dress like a grandmother." vjranama neean i oe uraD But even the grandmother bracket shouldn't necessarily dress in rocking-chair style. "When you get to elderly wom en, the problem is one of com fort in dress and looking well, too. There's no need for any woman, no matter how old, to look drab." As for the men, Willis, through personal observation has found many of them pretty ragged. "Their ties are pretty sad. their shirts are pretty sad and their shoes, unshined and beat, to are pretty sad." But strangely enough, in all of Willis' career, only one man has come to him for consulta tion. "He was a young lawyer whose mother was a fan of mine. I advised him on the type of clothes to buy, the kind of ac cessories to wear and the proper haircut to get. I even helped cor rect his dandruff condition." DR. DAMMASCH STRICglg Portland U.R Dr. F. H. Dammasch, 76, veteran state representative from Multnomah county, was reported in serious condition in a local hospital to day after suffering a heart? at tack followed by a cerebral hemorrhage.

The result is that I say very little ancf get embarrassed whenever anyone asks me point blank what I think about spme thing. "The trouble. I believe, goes back to my childhood when my father used to get mad or make fun of me if I said anything thai didn't agree exactly with what he thought. I learned to keep my thoughts to myself as my mother said this was the only way to keep peace in the family. Now I find I can't express my thoughts, even if I want to. How can 1 get over this?" R. B. (A) The only way to get over the fear of expressing your opin ions is to convince yourself that vry few people are like your father. In other words, you will meet very few people in business or social life who will get angry or ridicule you if your opinion on a certain subject differs from theirs. On the other hand, most peo-" pie will lose respect for you be cause of your fear of expressing yourself; no one can truly re spect a "Yes-man." Most peo ple, you will discover, are toler ant of the opinions of others and will respect a person who has the courage to express opinions that might not agree with those of the people to whom he is j talking. ! As you have been held back i by fear of ridicule or of making trouble for so long, you cannot expect to change overnight. However, if you sincerely want to get out of the "Yes-man" class, you must force yourself to speak up at least occasionally. When you discover that people react differently to this than your father did, that should give you the courage to speak up more and more often. The one thing to avoid, how ever, is creating the impression that you are not sure of your own beliefs. That will create an unfavorable impression and counteract what 'otherwise would have made a good im- j pression on your hearers, j (Copyright 1955, General I Features Corp.) !This certainly is true r C f jOjTw Though it may sound funny iWjjM fe V Buy carpet from me fJ ) tj fcj'T"" fJ I'll save you money!
