(International Souniphoto) Women Sensible Store Says After By ELIZABETH TOOMEY Unittd Press Correspondent New York flJ.P.) Women prefer clothes that are blue, heads that are bare and hus bands who let them open charge accounts. And they would rather wear slacks around the house than frilly, feminine lounging outfits. A new survey turned up these facts plus dozens of others which reveal the average woman as a sensible shopper who remains calm in the face of sudden fash ion changes. Some 1,300 women returned detailed questionaires to Berg dorf Goodman after the Fifth avenue store decided to query a cross section of women shoppers to discover if women aren't after all. pretty predictable in their likes and dislikes. Only in their answers to one of the 35 questions did these women, who represented various sizes, income groups and occu pations, show that they might deserve their reputation among men as capricious shoppers. The majority admitted they bought on impulse, they did not sit down at the start of a season and plan their wardrobes. Common Sens But the impulses are backed by basic common sense in most cases. It is more important for clothes to be becoming than ul tra fashionable, all but 11 per cent of the women agreed. All the talk about returning to big hats and more elaborate clothes reminiscent of a half century ago has so far passed right over tne bare heads of most of the surveyed shoppers. They like simple, semi-tailored clothes, they stated firmly, and less than half bother wearing hats of any kind. When they do, they want small hats. Blue emerged as the most pop ular color, black was second and red third. Whatever the color, however, the women look ior styles that have little fancy trim ming and skirts that are wide enough to walk in. The highest percentage of charge account customers came from the group of married wo men who did not have outside jobs. Only nine percent of the wives paid cash for their clothes.

Wistful Note A wistful note crept into the comments from special size groups, such as the very small women and the above - average sized women. The little women wrote that they wanted clothes to make them look "grown up and adult and smart." The big women wanted to look young and sophisticated. Almost nobody, apparently, is the right size. Only a handful of the questioned shoppers said they could wear readymade clothes without alterations. Mar ried women who do not work outside the home have the hard est time fitting the fashions. More than half of the women in this group said they had their clothes altered before they ever left the store. -- - Make leftover French bread in to a memorable breakfast treat by spreading slices ' first with butter, then with orange mar malade and sprinkling with chopped walnuts.

(U.R) Rear Adm. Donald B. MacMill- an, 81-year-old Arctic explorer is busy at his home here writ ing his auto-biography. He already has written more than 30,000 words and has just about concluded that it will not be one book but several. A member of the Peary ex pedition tha.t discovered the North Pole in 1909, MacMillan has made 30 voyages to the frozen wastes within the Arctic Circle. He thinks he'll have to fore go his annual expedition this year so he'll have time to finish his autobiography. However, he says he may take his schooner Bowdoiii, now at Falmouth, to Labrador and back "just to warm up her engines and generators." .

Brass Bedstead In Second Debut New York (U.R) Furniture relegated to the attic long enough usually makes a second debut. The latest item to come from hiding is the brass bedstead, now featured in model room settings by a number of interior deco rators. They use it in combin ation with almost any period of furniture from modern to Co lonial. The brass bed still is an item for the junkman in some parts of the country, but in others it goes for a high price in the an tique shops. Brand new ones now appear in several furniture lines, in either twin or double bed size. One company, T. Baumritter, Inc, New York, shows both the all-brass head board and brass in combination with wood or wrought iron. All are moderate priced, simple and light in design, and without the oversized decorations of those of grandma's day. Why the revival of this relic? "Well, brass adds elegance," said a Baumritter spokesman. "We're in an era of elegant fur nishings. Besides, brass goes with everything. k Visitors Here Mrs. Philip George and son, Bruno, are here from Eugene to spend a week with Mrs. George's father, Verl Walker, and Mrs. Walker, 2642 Merriman road. Mr. George will join the family here for the week end. Last week the Walkers and Mrs. George and son were in San Francisco. -- ------ - - -- -w- ...........................r.r.,jr.jr.jr.jr...,.jr....
