'29 Parker Woods' 55 iii A Jungles Provide Colors and Ideas For Coat Designer New York (U.R) The in spiration for most designers is tame compared with the sources used by Donald La Vigna. La Vigna, a young coat de signer in the jungles of Man hattan's garment district, gets his ideas from thp innclpc nf Africa. When he is finished with a women s coat collection, he heads for big game hunting and already has trophies of lion, leopard, rhinoceros and buffalo. "I tried for jaguar in Mexico a few months sen" .sairf T.a Vigna. "But no luck." He plans another safari in November, either to Africa where "I'd like to chase a COUole of manj9Kmi lions," or to India, for tiger. - vigna, whose father also hunted big game, is a partner with his brother, Fred, in a six-year-old firm specializing in taaumcre ana vicuna coats. The designer also skier and skin-diver. La Vigna said the outdoor life is "great" for color ideas. The last African iaunt ororiureri 9 couple of unusual shades Nai- roDi red and Acacia green which he had fabric mills dupli cate. The fall collection will in clude several blue - greens and browns, inspired, he said bv hie underwater "safaris" off the Kivera. La Vigna said he's had no narrow escaDes in his huntino so far "just in trying to get across loriy-second street." As much as one third of our population displaced ... as many as 500,000 persons needed to help in emergency feeding. These are a couple of grim statistics on what might happen to this nation in event of enemy attack, according to the Federal Civil Defense Administration and the American Red Cross. The two agencies this week In New York outlined a joint plan to train volunteers for mass feeding. Just in case. "Feeding is one of the biggest problems after any disaster, whether it be hurricane or bomb," said Lewis E. Berry Jr., deputy administrator of the ECDA. "An enemy attack might leave 50 to 70 million persons homeless." 4 Enhance the flavor of canned fruit cocktail by heating it with a small piece of vanilla bean (now readily available in food markets) and a lew strips of lem on peel.

According to Mrs. Alice K. Leopold, assistant on wom en's affairs to the secretary, of labor, this all-time high was achieved through a favorable economic climate and hew op portunities for women made pos sible by improved training and education. The Women's Bureau in Wash ington, which Mrs. Leopold also directs, has issued the 1956 Handbook for Women Workers which shows that in such, pro fessions as teaching, nursing, and clerical work women represent ed an overwhelming majority. More women than ever before are working in factories to help produce the products America wants and needs. In 1956, nearly a million wom en twice as many as in 1940 were doing responsible jobs as managers and proprietors. Mrs. Leopold said the trend today is for. both husband and wife to work at -least a while after marriage. The more than 10-million working wives today account for half the total num ber of women at work. Women were heads of house holds in some 5-million families, about a tenth of the total. Near ly half these women were work ing, and about a fifth were the only wage-earner in the family. Average age of women work ers has risen steadily since 1900, when it was 26. Today it's almost 40. One reason: women who took work during World War II and stayed, or returned. Population trends indicate the porportin of aver 4t ftf. crease sharply in' year to imrm, and our labor marktft vill more heavily on people it tteir middle years.
