United Press Correspondent New York ;U.Rj In this fash ion year of flowerlike colors and feminine contours, one success ful young designer frankly ad mits he got his inspiration from his backyard zinnia bed. Ric McClintock gestured toward a row of midwinter cock tail dresses in his brightly lit showroom. "There they are," the tall, handsome designer said. "The same colors as my zinnias." The dresses ranged from lem on yellow through peach and soft green into various misty blues. Even the materials looked like summer parties instead' pf winter cocktail parties. Filmy chiffons, laces and or-' ganzas are part of this winter's ultra-ladylike look. Designers like McClintock have adroitly avoided the danger of making mature women look like sweet girl graduates in the new sheer pastel dresses. The dcesses show off wom anly shape. McClintock calls it "the softened sheath." There are tucks and side drapes and back panels and draped bust lines but they never conceal the shape beneath the sheath. The only rule for deciding which of the new pale colors does the most for a woman, the designer said, was the time-honored one of "trying on the dress.'' "It depends on a woman's skin and her hair," he added. "I don't think the color of her eyes is so important, though a great many women seem to buy a color to match their eyes." Visitors Attend Family Reunion Eagle Point Mr. and Mrs. William G. Phlum have return ed to their home in Santa Bar bara. Calif., following a 10-day visit with Mrs. Phlum's sister, Mrs. William H.

By ELIZABETH TOOMEY United Press Correspondent New York UR) The first place Constance Stuck headed for when she came home from a year in Russia was a beauty shop. "Boy, -the hair cuts they give you over there," the Arkansas born career girl exclaimed. "You can go to a beauty shop all right, but you don't look very feminine when they get through with you. They seem to have the bowl hair cut idea. The men look worse than the women aft er a hair cut." Miss Stuck, a well traveled young woman in her early 30 s who has been employed by the State department since 1949, has one more year to complete her Moscow assignment. Began Buying Stock She was able to make the 10,000-mile round trip for a per manent wave and hair cut be cause of a remarkable series of coincidences.' It began in Wash ington; D.CM where . she then worked, with that common thing, a New Year's resolution which uncommonly she kept. "A year ago last January I decided that by gum, it was time I started saving money," Miss Stuck said in her slight Arkansas drawl. "So I just made a New Year's resolution." , She began investing her sav ings in stocks through the The ONLY Burelson's in Medford!

Last month her name came up as the person who bought the one millionth share of stock under the plan. The Stock Exchange and Merrill, Lynch, Pierce, Fenner and Beane, her brokers, brought the astonished Miss Stuck here to celebrate. "I couldn't believe it,", she said happily. Her mother, Mrs. Howard Stuck, came from Jonesboro, Ark., to join her daughter for the unexpected visit. ' "It really is easier to save money in Moscow," Miss Stuck confided. "There is nothing to spend money on and no place to go. Tlie one place you see pretty clothes is at the ballet or the opera. But on the street the clothes are very drab." Spent Savings She went shopping right after her beauty shop appointment last Saturday and quickly spent some of the savings she might have invested in stocks. "It's so easy to spend money over here," she sighed. "I bought two new suits. And I want to buy some fur-lined boots. It's pretty cold in the winter over there." Although she ranks as a capi talist by Russian standards, the lively Arkansas career girl con siders herself typical of several million other American women investors who recent surveys have shown outnumber men as stockholders in American busi ness. "I plan to continue my career until some nice man comes along," said Miss Stuck, who is disbursing officer at the U.S Embassy in Moscow. "And I plan to go on saving some mon ey. Once you get started, it isn't so hard to keep it up."
