Good Old Days Meant Torture for Wearers Of Steet Corsets Chicago ilPt In Elizabethan England women went through untold torture if they cared enough about their shape to squeeze into a girdle, reports one corset firm. Vassarette researchers said getting into a "foundation" be came such a monumental task that craftsmen even put hinges on the garments to make mat ters easier. Even in the early 1800 s this advice was given English mothers: "Have your daughter lie face down on the ground, so that by having a foot in the small of her back, you can secure a firm purchase on the laces. But getting into a girdle ceas ed to be an engineering feat. the researchers said, when manu facturers started using modernj fabrics instead of whalebone and steel "stays." Draperies When making cotton draperies put all hems in by hand. Use long, loose slip stitches. Hand finishing means the draperies will hang better.

'Little UN7 at Tennessee Keeping Stomachs Happy By WILLIAM E. CLARK United Press Correspondent Knoxville, Tenn. ilPi A good many ulcers among the diplo matic' set might be traced to events at the United Nations in New York. But at the "little UN" near the campus o the University of Tennessee, happy stomachs are the rule. The rambling 19-room inter national boarding house, which is officially registered as the little UN" is, and has been, many things to many people from many nations. It has provided homes for col legians from Argentina to the Philippines, has been respon sible for introductions which led to five international marriages and has educated the palate of a Norwegian to appreciate the tang of a French dish of meat cooked in wine. The White Avenue home is owned and guided by Mrs. Lor etta Pruett. To- this 52-year-old self-styled "mother-type," the "little UN has satisfied per fectly" her childhood wish to become a missionary. Started In 1952 Mrs. Pruett is the mother of two grown sons and daughters, but it is her combined role of housemother, maitre d' and chef which now demands her time and energies. The unique establishment got its start in 1952 when Mrs. Pruett had five boarders but was losing money. She informed her household that operations could continue only if each would bring in one additional boarder. Armando Garcia, a Cuban, quickly rounded up 15 new comers, all from foreign coun tries. Since that time, Mrs. Pru ett has had as many as 21 na tionalities under her roof at one time. In dietary matters, unusual tastes are catered to. For Masa michi Kowaka of Osaka, Japan, Mrs. Pruett stocks heavy sup plies of rice. Sunday dinner is always some thing special. Sooner or. later, every boarder has his favorite native dish whipped up for the consumption or rejection of the Others. If international incidents and cold-wars have been absent, Mrs. Pruett says it often has been de spite Sabbath spreads. Boarders frankly admit the day an Indian dish was concocted, everybody but the Calcutta native" showed up later at the corner ham burger stand. A Beef Dish Boarders Omar AH and Tayiss Hamid introduced an Arab dish which has proven the all-time favorite. It's called "Macklobi" or upside-down beef. Browned beef is placed in a caserole. Next a layer of sliced cauliflower, fried in oil, is added. Onion, sliced lengthwise and browned, are then laid on the mixture with rice added to cover the top. Water is poured in to cover the entire contents by Ifs a treat! Although Hollywood Special Formula Bread is a sensible bread, baked without ghortening. it's a wonderful treat to eat.

Each layer, as added, is sea soned to taste with salt, pepper, thyme and majoram. "Macklobi" is served by turning the casser ole upside down on a large platter. When Mrs. Pruett is away, meal planning is left to Mau ricio and Helen Fernandez. Mauricio, a chemical engineer ing senior from Bogota, Colom bia, has lived at the place since his freshman days. About a year ago he married Helen Steagall, a home economics major who was raised on a Tennessee farm. Suthern style cornbread has since become a favorite of Senor Fernandez and most of the other boarders. One boarder of Germanic descent. Otto Bruhn, is the acknowledged cornbread consuming champion.

Chicago I" A ih - it II Travel Becomes Less Successful For Romance By MARY PRIME United Press Correspondent New York W Faraway fields are not so green for ro mance as they once were. Wo men who travel to meet men may be surprised to learn that American women now outnum ber men as world travelers. The U.S. Passport Office esti mated that about 400,000 wo men travel outside the country in 1957, compared with 360,000 men. Europe is the most popular destination for both sexes. So a spokesman for the American Express Co. advised women tourists to visit other places Alaska, Hawaii, Africa and Japan. Many more men than women also travel to South America. Men In Tha Rockies The spokesmen also suggested Hong Kong, where 170,000 tour ists are expected this year. Many of these will be American ser vicemen stationed in the Far East. Women with more limited budgets will find an abundance of men vacationing in the Cana dian Rockies, most national parks, dude ranches and resorts where sports are the main at traction. Passport Office figures show ed that most male travelers are retired businessmen. Then come engineers, military personnel and business executives. Many doctors, dentists, lawyers, labor ers, bankers and brokers also go abroad to see the sights. Some farmers and ranchers make the trips, but only a few men in small businesses florist shops, drug stores and interior decoration go out of the coun try. Most women tourists are housewives. Students rank sec ond on the list, then clerks and secretaries. , Children A Problem Another problem arising from the increase in women travelers concerns children. The Passport Office predicted 48.000 Ameri cans 20 years of age or younger will go abroad this year. Many of these are under 12 years. One airline (TWA) said six per cent of its passengers on inter national flights in summer are children from two to 12 years of age. About three per cent on domestic flights are youngsters. With more families going abroad, most European hotels have added qualified baby-sit ters to their staffs. Planes and ships have special supplies and accommodations for babies, from disposable diapers and safety pins to powder and cream. Hostesses even mind Jun ior while parents go through customs. One word of warning: Always notify the airline or ship if you plan to take your children and if they need special foods. The little red dress threatens to replace the little black dress as a basic item in women's ward robes this fall and winter. The New York Fashion Group, in a preview of fall style trends, re ports "red is the single most important color family." .Blues rate next, said the Group. Other colors seen frequently include purples, magentas, yellows, and bright and dull greens. ly NAME, ADDRESS, PAT TERN NUMBER.

Since suburban small-fry take their airings in the station wagon nowadays, the old-fashioned baby carriage might be on the way out, said a market spokesman. Following up this trend, one manufacturer (Hedstrom-Union) has designed a "patio-pram," which can be set down outside the house, or folded up to be put in the car. A pool-side cabana, a gossmer tent for mosquito-proof siestas has been put out by another (Hettrick). 9"he tent is of trans parent nylon, has a striped roof, a weathervane, and takes less than one minute to erect. Another new conception in playpens is a fold-away circu lar playground made of nylon net and chromium from Thayer. The pre-school group can amuse themselves with a new sand box (Goshen Mfg. Co.) equipped with a roof or drop canvas sides. It turns into a des ert house, pirate den, or any thing else children feel like pretending to be. Play yards are coming out higher than the standard, so babies can be away from drafty floors. One firm (Hopkins Mfg.) has one nine inches off the floor. And cribs are more artistic, with colorful square tiles inset on head and footboard. Another firm (United Furni ture) displays a contraption that enables the youngsters to have their fun all in one package a combination double swing, loop, climbing pole, and basketball backboard. Another company has a root beer stand that looks like a drive-in. .That's so Junior can help Daddy pay the bills. Neither a freezer nor refrigera tor should fit into a tight piche.

MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE Women Outnumber Men Six to Four as Bank Employees of Nation New York iw Women ar giving men a run for their money in the banking industry. A nation-wide study for the American Bankers Association showed that six out of 10 bank employees are women. And, bank officials say, both large and small banks want to hire more women from the high school and college graduates. Banking careers offer women many more opportunities today than In the past. When women first starting working in banks in the 1890's, they did so behind screens for propriety's sake. To day, there are 585,000 men and women employed in banks, of these 10,000 women hold posi tions as officers. And 142 women are bank presidents. The banking industry also has what it calls the world's largest adult educational organization affiliated with a single indus try the American Institute of Banking. The AIB is open to both high school and college graduates. Employees can take as many courses as their ability and am bition allow.
