Democratic National Committeewoman

French Designer
Advises Wearers
Of Bathing Suits
By ELIZABETH TOOMEY
.United Press Correspondent
New York QJ.PJ Plenty
of ordinarily calm wives and
mothers, and a few daughters,
show signs of nervous insecurity
at this season.
Catch them unawares and
you'll see them back up to the
full length mirror, swivel their
heads around, take a long look
and emit a deep sigh. They show
no enthusiasm for the bright
sunshine and even less for the
first family trip to the beach.
They simply are trying to as
semble courage to squeeze . into
bathing suits and march out
to meet competition from long-
legged lovlies. It's too late to
streamline curves so the only
hope is to bolster the nerves.
There are certain things we
imperfect figures of American
womanhood could do to enhance
our appearance at the beach, a
Frenchman who designs bathing
suits suggested cautiously dur
ing a recent visit here.
. As Fernand Lafitte, the de
signer, put it, "Regard the
beach more like the cocktail
party, as European women do."
Lafitte is a clear-eyed young
man who does not believe in
spiking ' the lemonade, ' so his
theory obviously didn't refer to
refreshments.
"There are' two things I
mean," he explained.
"You should wear beach shoes
with high heels and wear make
up . . . well," Lafitte shrugged
expressively, "only the very
young and sportive type can go
without satisfactorily."
-. The designer dismissed the
importance of beach hats, beach
jewelry, bathing suit falsies and
painted toenails as essential to
outdoor allure.
"The bustline of the bathing
suits now is natural," he said.
"We do not put falsies in bath
ing suits except for the woman
who has absolutely nothing, and
even these are more subtle than
two years ago."
ORANGES POPULAR
Fresh oranges are the most
popular of all fresh fruit. Our
best known varieties are the Va
lencia and Washington navel.
The navel is the winter orange;
available from November to
May. Valencias are the May to
November variety. The navel
orange which is seedless has the
characteristic group cells oppo
site the stem end; the navel for
mation from which the orange
gets its name. The others, obvi
ously, are valencias which have
a thinner peel, are a little more
juicy and have a few seeds.
Right now markets offer both.
To make quick spiced peaches
drain one No. 2V4 can cling
peach halves. To syrup from
peaches, add A cup brown
sugar (packed), V6 cup vinegar,
two 3-inch sticks cinnamon, 1
teaspoon whole cloves and 1 tea
spoon whole allspice; boil 5 min
utes. Add peaches and simmer 5
minutes. Allow fruit to stand in
pickling syrup several hours or
overnight. Serve chilled.'

strapless gown and a flower in
her hair.
A newspaper reporter for the
Washington Star called this re
porter for all the dope of the
newly elected committeewoman
but got little detailed aid. Un
daunted, the reporter said,
Well. I ll have to interview her
myself then, for we've got to
have a story on her."
Most every politician dreams
of the day lightning will strike
at the right time to give him a
jolt upward in his political ca
reer. But Rep. Sam Coon would
just as soon shuffle along by his
own steam, thank you, having
had just about all the lightning
he cares to tangle with for
awhile.
Coon was flying back to Wash
ington recently from a congres
sional junket to Florida ar
ranged by the Pentagon. Before
their Air Force plane with a full
load of congressmen had reached
the halfway point, black storm
clouds loomed ahead.
Deciding to plunge right into
them, the pilot a two star gen
eral gave his passengers more
excitement than they had bar
gained for. A bolt of lightning
slammed into the wing of the
plane just a few feet beyond the
window from which the Baker
congressman was watching the
storm.
The plane lurched, then
dropped so suddenly that the
ashtrays in the arm rests shot
up against the ceiling. A game
of checkers was literally broken
up. The passengers were saved
from scalp wounds by their
fastened seat belts.
The pilot decided he had had
it, and turned back for an emer
gency landing at Ft. Bragg, N.
C. while the military made ac
comodations ready for the solons
to stay over until a plane could
complete the return trip, Coon
and several companions decided
to finish the junket by train.

How can a woman
150 decisions in 17.9
Did you know this about yourself?
You probably make about 150 buy
ing decisions every time you buy
groceries. Yet you spend an aver
age of only 17.9 minutes making
all those decisions. .
On something so important as
your family's food, what gives you
the courage to make up your mind
so quickly? How can you be so
sure you're right?
Isn't it simply that you've learned

Democrats, ambled up to Sen.
Richard L. Neuberger the other
day and announced he was plan
ning to run for president.
"I'm older, I'm sicker, and I
need more rest," explained the
gray-haired veteran with tongue
in cheek, taking a subtle crack
at his own party leader.
Two young sons of a Presby
terian minister arrived in Wash
ington this past week from Alas
ka, after a auto trip over the
Alcan highway. Out in the mid
dle they discovered a rock had
punctured a hole in their gas'
tank, so that precious fuel was
dripping away as they scratched
their heads for a solution.
John Walkup, 14, suggested
chewing gum and it worked.
"We chewed gum like mad from
then on until we found a garage
40 miles away," said the boy
proudly.
