Grandmother's Kitchen Had Many Good Features By GAY PAULEY United Press Correspondent Scarborough, N.Y. (U.PJ One industrial designer says that some of those kitchens of grand ma's day weren't so old-fashioned after all. Time and steps would be saved by bringing back some of their features.

Main Est. 1908 , now industrial design consultant. He became an amateur kitchen expert when he. his wife and two children moved into a 35-year-old house they purchased here in the Hudson valley. Take the old-fashioned pantry. Walton says it is a godsend to most cooks, although he caution ed against installing shelves too deep or storage areas too high. Or, the old-fashioned frying pan. Walton said his kitchen is stocked with several, in prefer ence to a fancy grili. "The frying pan is so easy to wash," he said. Efficient and Pretty Don't get the idea the Waltons aren't hep to modern appliances and methods. Walton said he made time-motion studies of vir tually every kitchen task before he went to work on actual re-design. And the couple installed the most modem of equipment. But the touch of tha old is there, too, in the pantry, in the provin cial wallpaper (sprayed with a plastic coating for easy mainten ance), in the polished birch cabi nets (which need only a onco-a-year waxing) and the breakfast room paneling. The kitchen was one included in a "cou.'.try kitchen tour" of Westchester cour-ty homes, spon sored by the Mills College club of New York. Mills, located in Oakland, Calif., is the oldest women's college west of the Mis sissippi. The Waltons said that, like most home-owners, they wanted the kitchen to provide the maxi mum of efficiency with a mini mum of work. It also had to look pretty. Before they decided what went where in the 16 by 19-foot area, they charted the steps and stooping necessary to prepare ev erything from ham and eggs to a seven-course meal. The result is a kitchen, in which Walton figures' his wife saves at least 30 minutes a day in meal preparation and cleanup. Two Wall Ovens "Add those minutes up over the years, and she's been saved a lot of time," said the engineer. Some of the highlights of the kitchen: It is fully electric. A stainless steel hood is just above the cook ing surface "why build one near the ceiling," said Walton. "You aren't preventing splash and soil from cooking that way." Two ovens are built in the wall. Cabinet doors have magne tic closings so that they shut with a mere touch of the hand. Formica tops of counters are in a tweedy pattern to show less soil; a spatter pattern is in the linoleum for the same reason. In dividual lighting is provided for each work area. Pots and pans are stored directly beneath the They'll Do It Every Time .

Sixth and Central Medford's Bargain Corner Around Hollywood By ALINE MOSBY United Fran Correspondent U5w Hollywood U.R) A Canadi an mountie's son who recently was a bus boy at a Sunset r 5 t r l p res taurant now is making love to D e b b i e Reynolds, Joan Collins and other beauties in the movies Leslie N i e 1 s o n is MGM's bet to Aline Most be one of the hottest new stars of the next year. Most new actors who hit success these days are the torn T-shirt, Marlon Brando type. But MGM is building the ex houseboy to stardom as a sophis ticated "male Grace Kelly." Nielson is tall, blond and re served. MGM gave him the only starring role in "The Opposite Sex" in which he wooed June Allyson and Miss Collins. Yet only four years ago Leslie was parking cars and picking up dirty plates for film stars in a restaurant in Hollywood. Cinematography Studied "I hitchhiked here from Cal gary to study cinematography at UCLA," he said today between scenes of his another starring picture, "Tammy," with Debbie Reynolds at Universal-International studio. "I was too shy to ask for a job so a friend got me one in a restaurant." Leslie had an "in" into show business. He is veteran Jean Hersholt's nephew! He visited his uncle regularly but never confessed his secret urge to act. Finally Leslie went back to Calgary. He "baloneyed" his way to an announcing jib on a Calgary radio station an order since he was painfully shy. Wife Acquired Leslie moved on to study at the Toronto Academy of Arts and then to one of Brando's schools, The Neighborhood Play house in New York. He broke into television where he ac quired 150 leads on such shows as "Studio One" and a wife, singer Monica Boyar. Paramount nabbed him for "The Vagabond King" but be fore the picture was finished MGM had lured him away to a long-term contract. "I drew the sophisticated parts" the 30-year-old actor said. "I was called for the Rex Harrison-Leslie Howard type roles (he even resembles his name sake Howard.) "Yes I'm a farm boy from the wilds of Canada who had never been closer to fancy living than pouring water for Danny Kaye and Clark Gable in a restau rant," he laughed. Good Floor Seal Perks Up Linoleum Madison, Wis. (U.R) Coating with a good floor seal will perk up old inlaid linoleum, Margaret McCordic, home management specialist at the University of Wisconsin, says. Miss McCordic says to make sure the linoleum is inlaid be cause the seal won't help print ed linoleum and will soften as phalt and rubber tile. Remove any wax before put ting on the seal. To remove self- polishing wax, use mild soaps and fine steel wool; for paste wax, a cloth dampened with turpentine or paint thinner does the job. Rinse the floor well and let it dry before putting on the seal. Apply with a brush or cloth and let it dry long enough to get sticky. Wipe off extra seal with a clean dry cloth. After the seal has dried thor oughly, buff lightly with fine steel wool and apply another coat in badly worn spots, Miss McCordic suggested. Washigton Andorra, the tiny principality lying between France and Spain, pays a strange yearly tribute to its co-ruler, the Bishop of Urgel: Six hams, six cheeses, 12 hens and 460 ptsetas, or about $42. The Bishop comes off better than Andorra's other ruler, the President of France, who receives only $2.80. Sunday.

Graduations Cards New 'Paint Job Good for House Declares Stylist Chicago (U.R) A new paint job can do as much for an elderly house as a face-lifting for an aging beauty, says one manu facturer. Color stylist Margaret Hutch inson of Martin-Senour says one of the best ways to give an old house a new look is with a con-1 trasting color scheme. A white trim is smart, she said, with" dark gray, deep barn red, blue, or brown, and it ac centuates the texture of carv ing, fluting, shutters and col umns. As for the darker color ' for an old house it's practical because it disguises uneven sur- faces and plays down irregular-1 ities. I Any large, well-b a 1 a n c e d home, such as the Victorian brownstone and the Georgian ! style, lend themselves to the light-and-dark style. For smaller ; houses of no particular period and shape, Miss Hutchinson rec ommends "bon - bon" colors , light, clear pastels such as pink, j pale green, blue, aqua, and yel low freely frosted with white trim. These will make the hous es look larger, she said, and "lend a storybook quality." i For a white house, these bright accent colors are recommend ed aqua, turquoise, lemon yel-; low, coral, chartreuse, and terra Home Accidents Kill j Record Number Children j Ann Arbor, Mich. (U.R) Re- cord numbers of children die . every year in home accidents and 10 times as many are crip-; pled for the rest of their lives because of inadequate safety pre cautions. So says Dr. Harry T. Towsley, professor of pediatrics at the University of Michigan. Towsley says one of the most common sources of severe injury is a short fall from a bed or bassinet because a baby is placed too close to the edge. Babies who like to chew and most do can get lead poi soning from the paint on their crib or receive a bad burn from munching' an electrical cord, the doctor continued, Towsley stressed that avoiding accidents is often a problem of educating the child to the dan gers. "Kissing the hurt away may be only an invitation to a major disaster later," he said. Step by step instructions for making more than 100 flower arrangements are given in Rae L. Goldson's new book, "Con temporary Flower Arrange ment," which is now available at the Medford Public Library. The library also has numerous other manuals on all aspects of flower arrangement.
