Clothing and Walk May Add Years to Woman's Appearance Polio Respirator Patient Dies as City Power Fails Chicago (U.PJ An area wide power failure singled out a helpless polio patient for death Tuesday. The chest respirator which kept him breathing went dead and he died with it. Firemen and neighbors work ed frantically to save Marcel Bucher, a 33-year-old ex-professional wrestler. But he was pro nounced dead less than an hour after the power went off. Bucher, a bulbar polio victim paralyzed from the neck down since 1954, was only one of 125, 000 Chicago and suburban resi dents whose electricity was cut off when a 207,000-kiIowatt gen erator broke down. Record-Breaking Htat For most of the 125,000,' the power breakdown meant they had to endure record-breaking heat without fans or air condi tioners. For Bucher it meant death. Bucher's wife, Jeanne, 35, said afterwards "The power went off Six of the seven basic food groups require refrigeration to preserve them in a healthful and edible condition.

By ELIZABETH TOOMEY United Press Correspondent New York (U.R) A woman can add 10 years to her age in a matter of minutes simply by changing her clothes and her walk. Most women realize this is true, but actresses prove it so dramatically that any woman who has slipped into a heavy trudge of a sloppy housedress learns the lesson anew. A former glamour girl of the Metropolitan, Opera, who night ly turns herself into a curveless, fiftyish spinster for Broadway audiences, described her new awareness of age and how to show it. Sang Carmen "They kept saying I just didn t look the part during rehearsal," said Paulee, a brunette who sang the role of Carmen with the Metropolitan Opera touring com pany and who favors lowcut dresses in her private life. Miss Paulee, with a chance to make her Broadway debut in the hit musical "The Most Happy Fella," wanted nothing more than to look like a middle-aged old maid with a sour disposition. Her husband and five-year-old daughter were sympathetic. 'I managed it finally," the singer said. "But each night when I get into costume I am amazed to see at just what point the transformation takes place. "I put on the makeup, and that looks all right. I don't add lines to my face. Then I put on a salt and pepper wig. The grey hair makes me look sort of dis tinguished, but not older. Then I put on the dress, and that does it!" Looks Austere The dress is a severe, high necked style with a padded front that covers the youthful outlines of Miss Paulee's own figure. The shoes are heavy. "With the dress my body takes on a sort of solidness," Miss Pau lee continued. "Then my move ments change. I move very slow ly to take all of the youth out of it. I use no quick or no gliding movements. I hold my head tall, to look austere, but when I move it I turn it stiffly, in a tense way." People at the stage door never recognize her when she comes tripping lightly down the steps after the show ends, in her own well-fitted clothes and with her hair back to its normal brunette bob. "It's made we even . more aware of my own wardrobe," she admitted. "I find myself dressing up in low-cut cocktail dresses as often as possible."

This time, she sent her 7-year old daughter, Alice, hurrying to an attendant at a nearby gas station.

U.PJ Nine Hiroshima maidens who underwent plastic surgery ! for the hideous scars and burns caused by the 1945 atom blast left for Honolulu today on the second leg of their trip home. The nine maidens, now no longer afraid to show their faces, left at 9 a.m. PDT on a Military Air Transport Service plane. They were among 25 Japanese women who came to this country a year ago to undergo a series of treatments to repair the dam age done by the bomb that burst over their city on Aug. 6, 1945. One of them, Tomoko Naka baashi, died while in surgery. Her ashes were on the same plane carrying the nine maidens home. Another of the maidens, Mit suko Kuramoto, arrived here with the other nine Tuesday from New York. However, she went to Gardena, Calif., to visit an aunt, Mrs. Chiye Sakamoto. Mitsuko will remain in Gar dena until September. Then she will rejoin the 14 maidens who will leave for home in Septem ber when their treatments are completed. The nine leaving today spent the night at the homes of Japanese-American families in the San Francisco Bay . Area. ' Tuesday night they attended a reception given by the Japanese Christian Church Federation. which kept Bucher's mouth free of mucus. Telephone Line Bust The frantic wife tried to call the Commonwealth Edison Co. for help. But the line was busy. Company officials said they were flooded at the time with calls from complaining custom ers. The next call for help went to the Fire Department An inhala tor squad worked over Bucher for half an hour. Then he was pronounced dead. The power failure was felt through seven Chicago areas and six suburbs.
