Diets Not Affected By Size of Income Many studies have shown that in this country there is little relationship between income artd whether or not a family's diet is adequate. In most cases, when people eat an unbalanced diet, short on some of the essential elements, such as vegetables, it is because of preference for cer tain foods. In a study of diets of indus trial workers by Rutgers uni versity scientists, it was found that those having low ratings for intake of one or more vita mins were distributed through the entire range of incomes. There were just as many of these vitamin-short people at the high est as at the lowest income level. The Rutgers researchers re ported that education or its lack was a more important factor than income in determining eat ing habits of these workers. Other studies have developed similar conclusions, although it is found that where incomes are extremely low the diet is ad versely affected. However, even in low income groups some diets were found good Mrs Tuttle, who has served as president of the auxiliary since its organization in September, 1954, was given a special past president's pin Certificates were presented to 48 additional women who have given "faithful service in behalf of the hospital." Bishop Dagwell was assisted in the presentation by the Rev. George R. V. Bolster, vice president of the hospital board, and rector of St. Mark's Episcopal church in Medford. Mrs. Tuttle, who presided at the meeting, announced that the auxiliary board has ordered a two-way radio communication unit to be kept at the hospital and used in the event of disaster anywhere in the area. The unit was ordered in response to a request by Dr. J. C. Luce, medi cal director for Jackson County civil defense, and involves an expenditure of $300, part of which will be repaid by the federal and state civil defense agencies. Additional volunteer workers are needed for a stenographic pool being organized by the auxiliary, Mrs. Tuttle added. These women will be called on occasionally to assist the hospi tal staff in preparing mimeo graphed correspondence and other work. Anyone interested in joining any of the auxiliary groups is asked to contact the new president, Mrs. Pitts, NO-4-2202 or the vice president, Mrs. Barnett, 2-9086- Refreshments were served after the meeting- CMJEITOiMt...

Says Consultant By UNITED PRESS Women dominate men's styles as well as their own, says Mrs. Edith Heckman, a men's fash ion consultant. Mrs. Heckman, who doles out style advice in the men's clothing department at Hess Brothers, Allentown, Pa., cited a couple of examples of this feminine influence on what males wear. "When women were sporting . . . wide-padded shoulders and long suit jackets a decade ago, so were the men,", she said. "Now that women have turned to soft, rounded shoulders and a more natural look, the men have followed suit." Mrs. Heckman has found that most women, if they have the final say, want their men in conservative clothes. But some times, she added, the women are not the boss. She told of one couple who got into a first-class hassle about purchase of an ex pensive cashmere coat. The hus band wanted the cashmere. His wife more budget-minded, want ed him to choose something less costly. "We'll finish this argument at home," said the husband. He walked out with the cashmere. Designer Ceil Chapman says that present world tension prob ably will usher in an era of "sex appeal" clothes, a la Jean Harlow. "I look for form-fitting sil houettes, shimmering and cling ing fabrics, bright colors, and lots of glitter," said the design er. "We are in a 'peace in our time" period, and women's clothes are bound to reflect the restless, tense and yet deter minedly hopeful outlook." Easier fo Cut, Sew and Fit Some of the new nightgowns look more like ball gowns. They are that fancy. Lingerie design ers incorporate such evening gown features as floating panels, drape and color contrast to give this undercover apparel the look of a formal.

Knitwear Comes In Prison Stripes; Stockings Grey By United Press All that's missing is the num ber. A new collection of Alamac knit sportswear features tapered pants, skirts and shirts in bold prison stripes of black and white, or red and white. The manufacturer also features a cot ton jersey skirt, in multi-color stripes, which can be worn also as a beach cape. Secret of its versatility is a solid color ribbing at the top. The ribbing serves as a belt when the garment is worn as a skirt, or as neckline when worn as a cape. Chic Parisian women are wearing the palest of grey stock ings for dress-up occasions. It's just part of the overall accent on grey for milady's legs, says one fashion observer, who adds that a greenish, irridescent grey also is featured for cocktail wear. Grey promises to be a leading color for handbags, come spring. The Leather Industries of Amer cia said other popular tones in clude the beige family and such off-beat shades as curry, saffron, mustard or ocher. 1 Brighten a winter menu with a relish tray of crisp raw cauli flower and celery, handsome ripe olives and whole spiced canned cling peaches.
