Women Discover Tool Chest;
Blow Torch Browns Meringue

United Press Correspondent
New York ;U.R; A woman
daintily spread meringue over
a mound of ice cream recently,
struck a match to something re
sembling a blow torch, and
browned- the dessert before her
audience of astonished males.
The dessert was called baked
Alaska. The demonstration was
the latest example of what hap
pends when a woman gets inter
ested in her husband's do-it-yourself
tool chest.

Around
Hollywood
By ALINE MOSBY
United Press Correspondent
Hollywood HU.R) Back in the
'40s one of the reigning sensa
tions in movies was an energetic
Puerto Rican
singer namea
Olga San
Juan. After
seven years
off the screen,
fiery Olga re
turns to, show
b u s i n ess on
television to
night. Aline Mosbr Olga was one
actress who meant it when she
announced she'd give up work
for a While to tend to her mar
riage. After she was wed to ac
tor Edmund O'Brien, Olga ap
peared on Broadway in "Paint
Your Wagon" and then dropped
out of show business.
At home she's been busy with
their two daughters, Maria 6,
and Bridget, 7. And she hasn't
rolled her big, hazel eyes in
front of a movie camera, since
"The ' Beautiful Blonde from
Bashful Bend" in 1949.
Guest Appearance Set
But Olga launches her come
back by doing a guest appear
ance on TV's "The Rosemary
Clooney Show." aired tonight in
many cities. ;
"I've been busy at home
watching the children, and
watching Ed's career," said
Olga, rounder but otherwise un
changed from her years of being
a housewife.
Curiously, she appeared shy
and nervous about being inter
viewed again after all . those
years of privacy.
"Eddie has his own production
company now and he's been
very active since he won the
Academy Award," she went on,
steering the conversation to her
husband.
"And me? Oh, I took the kids
to school for a while, until I
made them so late I had to put
them on the school bus. Then
my husband is a great lover of
people and he likes having
friends around for barbecues on
Sunday.
Friendship Mentioned
"Maybe I'm lazy. I just never
did anything about working.
Then Rosemary Clooney asked
me to do this show she's a
friend of mine. She married a
Puerto Rican and so did Eddie!"
she laughed.
TV has revived the careers of
many another entertainer who
quit for various reasons but was
lured back by the big video
money. And TV can use Olga.
Many an armchair critic com
plains the same guests keep
showing up on shows around the
dial. And although Olga is a
quiet, sweet girl in person, she
changes to an exciting enter
tainer when she gets in front of
that television camera.
"I've been taking voice les
sons all these years," she said.
"I'd like to do some dramatic
shows, too, but I won't tour in
clubs again.
a high percentage of the repair
ana rebuilding projects around
the home, but now they have
pointed the way to new uses for
carpentry tools.
Ice Cream Melted
A suburban housewife came
up with the idea of browning
that baked Alaska with a pro
pane gas torch. She had trouble
getting the dessert browned
quickly enough in her oven to
prevent the ice cream from
melting.
Then she spotted the torch in
the tool chest. The directions
suggested using it to remove old
putty or paint, to lay asphalt tile
or patch a gutter leak.
"I thought right away of the
baked Alaska," she told the ex
ecutives of the Otto Bernz com
pany, who make the torch and
invited the woman over for a
demonstration after they heard
her story. The searing blue
flame from the lightweight torch
browned the dessert without
melting the ice cream.
Now, without trying to figure
out the feminine reasoning that
led to this discovery, the torch
makers plan to add a cooking
page to their demonstration
booklet.-
Drills Polish Furniture v
Other manufacturers 1 have
discovered that women are will
ing to try any kind of a gadget
if they think it has labor-saving
possibilities for household tasks.
They've learned to use elec
tric, drills,' made for drilling
holes in walls or woodwork, to
polish furniture. A special at
tachment and pad fitted onto the
end turns the drill into a rotary
buffer.
One manufacturer now puts
out the home tool kit formerly
designed for a man's workshop
in a kitchen wall cabinet design
ed so women will have the tools
within easy reach.
"This is not limited to the
average income housewife
alone," a do-it-yourself industry
spokesman said. "We find wom
en whose husbands earn $15,000
a year and up buying these tool
chests. It is not just economy
that causes their interests. The
real reason is that they can't get
anyone to come and do these
carpentry jobs around the
.house."
On Vacation
Mr. and Mrs. Joe Dubuque of
207 North Holly street will
leave today for a vacation in
Yakima, Wash., and Portland. In
Yakima the couple will visit Mr.
Dubuque's sister, Mrs. Jack
Stratton and later they will visit
relatives in Portland. They plan
to return home by the coast
route.
