Furniture Designs
Undergo Changes;
Television Cause
Chicago (U.R) Television is
causing drastic changes in fur
niture design.
Items ranging from desks to
entire, living room suites have
been remodeled to accomodate
television's demands, manufac
turers at the recent American
Furniture Mart's Summer show
reported.
"Take desks for instance,
said Robert L. Sligh, assistant
sales manager of Sligh of Grand
Rapids. "When television sets
first came into existence desk
sales fell sharply. It took us
some time, but we finally fig
ured out why."
Sligh said it seemed that the
addition of a television set made
most living rooms overcrowded
and some piece of furniture had
to go. Since all tables and chairs
available were needed for the
television audience, the only dis
pensable item was the desk.
"But all that is changed now,
noted Sligh. "We've come out
with entirely new styled desks
which assume the role of focal
points rather than utilitarian
objects. The desk will now be a
conversation piece instead of a
cluttered up hunk of furniture."
Television also has effected
furniture construction.
I often hear people asking for
the massive furniture of the
good old days'," said Delmar
R. Kroehler, president of the
Kroehler Manufacturing Co. of
Chicago. "They're just lucky
that furniture isn't around any
more. It never could withstand
the wear and tear of an average
television family. Today's fur
niture must be made sturdier
than ever before. And people
are spending so much time in
their homes now because of tele
vision, that they're more style
conscious."

OH IT I
Just listSning to the other fellow can be a positive force for
peace says Dr. Samuel I. Hayakawa, noted semanticist. Dr.
Hayakawa talked the other day for a women's group in Sacra
mento, Calif., and suggested that the passive act of listening to
gain understanding of another's point of view is something which
more of us should do.
He suggested listening without immediately judging. "Let
communication flow the other way," he suggested. "Discover the
basis of objection, how it looks to the other fellow. It takes cour
age and strength to listen without seeking to evaluate the other
side's point of view. Communication is a universal problem at
both tiny and enormous level. It can be improved by anybody,
starting with yourself. And peace will be that much nearer."
Mrs. Phil Hitchcock knows how to listen. Mrs. Hitchcock
was a guest at a small luncheon given Tuesday by Mrs. E. A.
Littrell, and the quiet Mrs. H. let her table companions do most
of the talking when the conversation was on politics, which it
mostly was.
When it wasn't politics, it was food. Before luncheon, and
encouraged by the delicious smells wafting in from the kitchen,
the group talked about diet and we found that others have the
same problem that we do namely, eating enough breakfast in
order to keep from starving before luncheon. Mrs. Hitchcock said
one of her favorite nutritionists has this advice: Eat like a king
for breakfast, like a prince for luncheon and like a pauper for
dinner. She added that she and her husband had been treated to
a "king's breakfast" of venison steak at the home of friends in
Drain en route to Medford.
The exceedingly attractive and personable Mrs. Hitchcock, a
brunette, wore a sand-colored knit dress for the luncheon engage
ment. We've often thought that one of the perils of campaigning
would be the amount and quality of food which candidates must
consume under all sorts of trying conditions. The constant ora
tory would be a frightful ordeal, but the parade of breakfasts,
luncheons and dinners, with coffees and teas in between, is surely
enough to ruin both the digestion and morale of even the strong
est man.
. About the time tnree weeks have gone without any word
from the young marrieds, and about time we decided to send a
one-word wire, or a really scorching letter, then along comes a
four-page missive, and peace is restored. In the last one from Ft.
Ord, they even remembered to answer questions.
We were properly thanked for having sent the brushes, pills,
brewer's yeast and monopoly game, plus a jar of pear butter, and
we were assured that the clothes rack really didn't matter. What
became of the rack still remains a household mystery. We put it
in a safe place, and haven't seen it since.
"We have played monopoly several times," wrote the young
Army wife, "and Kenny even got ambitious and carved some
figurines to use in it from a block of wood that he found in a
vacant lot down the street. They are really quite interesting
one is a nude female torso and the other three are along the
African mask line. We named them Giggles, Bubbles, Godiva and
Ethelbert."
She added that the soldier,, an oboist, had been transferred
to the Band Training unit, and that he, as well as Raoul Maddox
of Medford, who is also stationed at Ft. Ord, had both written con
cerning "the possibilities of being transferred to the Sixth Army
band at the Presidio in San Francisco.
The letter they received came via Keith Mirick, Medford
musician already serving in 'the Sixth Army band, and the two
young couples are now pondering the pros and cons of adding a
year to their Army service and being privileged to play in that
band, or of taking their chances with draftee status.
m
"We both went to a rehearsal of the Monterey Bay Symphony
last night with Raoul and Tudy," she continued, which was most
enjoyable. There was a potluck dinner beforehand, and I ended
up playing last chair second violin, using a borrowed instrument.
Kenny played second oboe, and enjoyed it even more than I did.
The number we worked on was the 'Pathetique Symphony.' The
man who conduts up until the time of the concert is an oboist,
and is considered the best on the coast. He comes down from San
Francisco once a week for rehearsals, and then about two re
hearsals before the concert, they import a conductor from San
Francisco who takes it from there.
"They get state aid because it is considered a class college
I suppose, and they pay mileage to people from out of town and
they also pay baby sitters. There are some very fine musicians in
the group several from Fort Ord and the other service installa
tions around here. One young man, who was Kenny's assigned
roommate for a few days, was the assistant conductor of the
Minneapolis Symphony before he was drafted."
"The trainee band is about half made up of professional
musicians and music teachers, with a few high school musicians
to balance it. Kenny and four other trainees have formed a wood
wind quintet, and they are to tape some programs for radio broad
casts." The letter went on four typewritten pages on both sides of
the sheets, with news about the score made in a civil service exam
which was satisfactory, the fact that she was proud to have missed
but one question on the California driving test for a learner's per
mit, that Doug Brannock of Medford is stationed at the Naval
"postgraduate school" in Monterey, and that when Raoul M. hears
that she has received the Sunday paper from home he always
wistfully asks if it was the sports section, or only the society.
Potpourri actually went hunting last Sunday. True, it wasn't
much of an expedition, for the two of us just went up into the
hills south of Medford and climbed around on a wooded slope.
While we didn't see any deer, the close sound of rifles, including
a semi-automatic, made Potpourri a trifle uneasy. However, we
didn't come home empty-handed. We picked up the usual assort
ment of pretty rocks, three different kinds of cones, some velvety
green moss to put around house plants and poison oak on both
ankles. O.S.

Roughage Important
For Normal Diet,
Nutritionist States
Philadelphia "Any normal
diet can be so planned that it
will contribute sufficient
arnounts of roughage," says Cor-1
inne H. Robinson, head of the ,
department of food and nutri- j
tion, Drexel Institute of Tech-;
nology, Philadelphia. She states
that the daily need for fiber is j
about six grams per day for an
adult. This is a small amount, j
but highly important to health.
These six grams, according to !
Dr. Robinson, could be made up, !
for example, from the fiber con- ;
tent of such a selection of foods j
as the following: 1 medium or- j
ange; 1 medium apple; 1 serv-:
ing of cabbage: 1 medium pota- I
to; 1 serving of cooked carrots; i
1 shredded wheat biscuit or V4 j
cup of oatmeal and 2 slices of '
whole wheat bread.
Where the fiber content of j
the diet is to be increased, us
ually the increase calls for more
whole grain breads and cereals
and more fresh fruits and vege
tables, the fruit preferably be
ing eaten raw and some of the
vegetables also being eaten un
cooked, as in salads.
Vegetables and Fruits
Said Important in Diet
New York According to the
Nutrition Foundation, the work '
of many scientists has empha-'
sized the "importance of mere ;
traces in the body of essential ,
mineral elements such as iodine ;
or copper; and of vitamins pro- j
tective in amounts so small as i
to demand measurement' in mil
lionths of a gram. In conse
quence, vegetables and fruits, j
which are the ultimate sources i
of the vitamins and the chief j
conveyors of the minerals of the 1
soil to the animal body, aside
from eggs and milk, have as- j
sumed a new place in human j
nutrition and many people have 1
found improved health and vig-,
or through their freer use," the j
foundation states. j
