Serious Cuts Incurred From Washing Dishes Boston HP It's perfectly all right to let the children help w'th the dishes. But make wash ing a safe chore, warns one in surance company. The American Mutual Liabil ity Insurance Co. reported that dishwashing often involves in jury to children. Last year, more than 100,000 serious cuts from broken glassware and china were reported to doctors. The company said an estimated 10 times this many "broken glass" injuries were given first-aid treatment at home. The company said such acci dents accounted for approxi mately 41 per cent of all types of home accidents among school children. "Parents who delegate the job of dishwashing to children have the responsibility of instructing them in handling this potentially dangerous chore," said Arthur Johnson, director of the firm's Institute for Safer Living. Illinois Students Study Snack Economy Urbana, 111. an Home economics students at the Uni versity of Illinois learn to bal ance their budgets as they bal ance their menus. Each student recorded every bit of food intake for a two-day period, then compare it with rec ommended daily allowances for nutrients. Residence hall diners couldn't change their entire menus, but they could, and did, select differ ent snacks. As a result, many of the stu dents discovered that it's more healthful and can be cheaper, too, to eat the right foods. Sunday, Juna 30, 1857 r r- " itf 'V fc ' Miss Phyllis Briggs (Landis-Shangle photo" Fairyland Playground To Open Soon New York IF The world's first fairyland playground and park with facilities for those who will never grow up mentally will be ready for full scale use this summer at the entrance to the Utah State Train ing School at American Fork, 25 miles from Salt Lake City. The six-and-one-half-acre play ground and park, dotted with familiar nursery-book character.; and a real train with 2,500 feet of track, is the idea of Dr. Vernon H. Houston, superin tendent of the school, who be lieves "his kids" have a "right to happiness" even though 'they may be an economic loss to society." Steelways, official publication of American Iron and Steel In stitute, said Dr. Houston's hope was translated into reality by 30 volunteer workers from a near by steel mill who donated 20,000 man-hours and talent to the con struction of the unique play ground, aided by plant equip ment loaned by the steel com pany. The publication said that the state allocated $20,000 for sup plies and additional funds were contributed by parents and civic groups. In fact, last Christmas the workers in various steel plant departments collected over 5800 for the cause. Dr. Houston and his construc tion crew cherish a hope that others will come to see the park, let their children use it and thus grasp more fully the prob lems of the mentally retarded.

HP The new president of the oldest banking establishment in Dallas, the Na tional Bank of Commerce, is .a striking 42-year-old blonde, Miss Maurine Jacobs. The bank's board of directors elected Miss Jacobs, who started her career as a secretary 23 years ago, last Nov. 26. She suc ceeded the late J. B. Adoue Jr., a former Dallas mayor. There are only 33 women in the United States who hold bank presidencies or chairmanships of the board, and these are gen erally in much smaller cities. The slender Dallas woman bf gan as secretary to the cashier of the bank. She is now head of a bank ranked ninth among 22 banks in the metropolitan area of Dallas and sixth among the city's downtown banks. The National Bank of Com merce was founded in 1878 by J. B. Adoue Sr., and continued by his son, whom Miss Jacobs succeeded. Not for Politics After the announcement by the board of the bank's new president, the vivacious blonde, smartly dressed, conducted a news conference during which she readily answered all ques tions. The bank's directors also at tended the conference. One of them said that her appointment was quite natural. He added that, as a matter of fact, Miss Jacobs had been running the bank in recent years anyway, especially after Adoue became city mayor. Miss Jacobs smiled as she told newsmen she had no political aspirations. "I will follow Mr. Adoue's policies except for politics," she commented. In addition to being Dallas mayor a number of years, Adoue was one of the city's leading civic workers and a great sup porter of the Community Chest. The new president said she hoped to continue Jielping the Community Chest.

Low Lines In Furniture By DON MARTIN United Press Correspondent High Point, N.C. (IP) Furni ture manufacturers stress the sleek and low in their new lines shown at the annual furniture market showing here. Chests, tables, chairs, bedroom and living room furniture stressed the lowered, and longer, look at the exposition which at tracted 6,000 buyers. Colors mostly followed warm wood tones. In fact, some fin ishes were so translucent it ap peared you were looking deep into the grain of the wood. And the design interpretations, taken from all over the world, are' Americanized. The southern furniture manufacturers take the provincial styles of the Scan dinavian countries, England, France, Italy and South Ameri ca and turn them into American modern. South's Imporiance There are curves and a few embellishments, but they are secondary to comfort and versa tility. The "boxy trend" of a few years ago has been modified, with curves. The number of buyers at the market emphasized the increas ing interest the South takes in the furniture industry. Department of Commerce fig ures show a 45 per cent increase in wood and upholstered produc tion in North Carolina since 1947. ' Some 51 per cent of all wood en bedroom furniture is pro duced within 125 miles of Greensboro. " James T. Ryan, executive vice president of the Southern Fur niture Manufacturers associa tion, said continued expansion is making the Commerce De partment figures out of date. "The year 1956 was one of the best ever for the furniture industry," Ryan said. "And the year 1957 will be even greater, because there is a resurgence of interest in the home. "Homemakers are style con scious and want to take advan tage of the improvements and production nechniques of th fur niture industry," he said. -t Cold Meats Satisfy a meat and potatoes ap petite on a hot summer evening with cold meats and potato salad. Lots of crisp celery and a gen erous measure of ripe olive wedg es make the salad extra good. A border of tomato and cucumber slices takes the place of a hot vegetable. For an economical steak bar becue, charcoal broil a flank steak. Be sure to have a hot plate waiting for the steak, and a very sharp knife to cut it across the grain in diagonal slices.
