TWO MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE 3 Thursday, September 13, 1956 c??ie?M Clothes Designed By San Franciscan Are Just Dresses By ELIZABETH TOOMEY United Press Correspondent New York U.Ri A fashion show can make an average fe male feci like the forgotten woman. ' Who is as thin as those mod els anyway? What budget leaves room for a Dior, or -even a first rate copy? What lady is fair enough to look good in a dress that hanas straight down from the midriff: Well, step up and meet a dress designer who not only under stands the feeling, but manages to stae a fashion show that would be considered a fiasco by Pans standards. The name is Eleanor Green, a San Francisco mother of three chidren and designer of cock tail dresses. She is a trim blonde with a Hungarian accent and a sense of humor. "I don't design creations," she said nonchalantly just before her firt New York fashion show began. '"I make dresses. I think they should do something to en hance a woman's bodv, that's all." Models Too Thin The first model walked into the hotel suite parlor in a mocha and black silk print dress. It was a size 10, but the willowy model didn't fill it out. The next two models appeared in too-big dresses. Miss Green shrupned. ''These dresses are from the regular stock and these girls are too thin," she said. "Would you be lieve it, one of the models is wearing hip pads?" The girl with the hip falsies blushed. It was true, she whis pered later, although she was unprepared for Miss Green's public announcement. Someone asked the price of a handsome silver grey brocade dress which Miss Green showed In a group called "Career Girl at the Opera." The designer be gan to apologize. Highest Price $40 I don't like to say the price sometimesv because the people think something maybe is wrong with the clothes." she said. Turned out that her most expen sive dress costs less than $40 in stores, but she suffers from a widespread tendcncy..to be sus picious of bargains. So why doesn't she design more expensive clothes? "I don't have the patience for the finer details. Miss Green said bluntly. "I know what lines are flattering to women and I use good materials. But I have no desire to try to manufacture the kind of dress that would sell for much money." Miss Green, who designs. makes samples, manufactures and sells her own San Francisco- made clothes, does keep an eye Gambee-Boitano Rites Saturday The wedding of Miss Shirley Boitno to Eugene Gambee of Portland is set for Saturday at Sacred Heart Catholic church here, and friends and relatives of the couple coming from a dis tance are now arriving in the city.

"Everything becomes popular if it is promoted in Paris enough," she said with resigna tion. "It takes a little time to simmer down to my clothes. But now Paris says skirts will be longer, so I know that in a few seasons I will be making my skirts longer. I don't think it will be a drastic change.

Simple Designs Rule For New Furniture Chicago (U.R) It is increas ingly difficult to make a mistake in furniture buying, say some home furnishings sources. Gone from the scene are the heavily ornamented pieces of past decades which so often turned into king-sized "lemons" as soon as they were placed in the home. Straight lines and simple de signs have become the rule. 'Buyers want casualness above everything else." said Ben Mull- er, sales manager of the Imperial furniture Co., Inc., Grand Rap ids. Mich. 'The trend is toward a mix ture of old traditional with new ultramodern. It produces some thing of a transitional style," Muller said at the summer home furnishings market. Buyers also are selecting a better Jine of furniture, accord ing to market reports. Newspapers and magazines have educated the average buyer so that he or she knows the dif ference between fine styling and cheap ornamentation," said Law rence H. Whiting, Furniture Mart president. "So the manu facturers just have to fall in line and produce the type of thing the buyer wants. It's made for a high level in all furniture styling." In Canada, 95 of the na tion's milk supply is carried by highway transport and fresh vegetables and fruit move main ly by truck. 32 UD( IMHTUK- snttntfcorratroTS till HOOKS -MIUIS AUT0IUMPEKS AlUMMUM STORM WINDOWS 21)0 IS SOU) a tT HOCUS.
