Famous French Designer
Takes "Backward Look
By GAY PAULEY
United Press Women's Editor
New York 'IF C h r i s t i a n
Dior came out today with a
new look the backward look.
The French designer put away
scissors, temporarily, and picked
up pen to write his autobio
graphy "Christian Dior and I"
E. P. Dutton company.
He traced the growth of his
dressmaking establishment in
Paris from 1947, when his "new
look" set off an international
style revolution, to the present
with his name a household word,
his label on everything from
furs to shoes and perfumes. The
book also gives plenty of insight
into Dior, the man a shy, often
superstitious, and amazingly
modest person equipped with a
good sense of humorv
Dior said that as designer he
had been dubbed "madman,
criminal, megalomaniac, genius,
grand vizier, emperor . . ." But
"my real hobby," he said, "is
architecture. It has fascinated
me ever since I was a child.
Prevented . . . from gratifying
this passion, I found outlet for
it in dress design."
Dior disclosed that it was a
fortune teller who in 1919 pre
dicted his future. "You will suf
fer poverty," she said. "But
women are lucky for you . . .
You will make a great deal of
money out of them and you will
travel widely." Fortune tellers
also advised him to link up after
World War II with Marcel Bous
sac, the French textile magnate.
An Inspiration
"As a result of wartime uni
forms, women looked and
dressed like Amazons," Dior ex
plained. He said he designed for
"flower-like women," clothes
with "rounded shoulders, full
busts, willowy waists above
enormous spreading skirts . . ."
"The style that was hailed as
new and original was nothing
but the sincere and natural ex
pression of a fashion I had al
ways sought to achieve," he said.
Dior's 1946-47 changes made
him famous immediately, and
brought him to this country to
receive fashion acclaim. But in
Chicago, he recalled, housewives
picketed him, shouting "Down
with the new look . . . burn
Monsieur Dior ... Christian
Dior, go home."
The "H" silhouette a -few
years later caused just as much
a furor. It was immediately
named "the flat look," the de
signer recalled, "but it had
never been my intention to
create a flatness which would
bring to mind a string bean."
One irate male, a farmer in
Idaho, wrote:
"With your so-called genius,
you have succeeded in disfigur
ing my wife. What would, you
say if I sent her to you!"
Style Wears Out
Dior said the most successful
fashion "wears itself out the
quickest because it is overly im
itated. Obviously, uniforms have
the longest life."
The designer confessed he al
ways tries for a catchy term for
each collection because "one
must cater to the modern taste
for a slogan."
"In the spring of 1955," he
said, "I picked on the fullness
of the skirts of certain models
and isolated the letter 'A' . . .
I arrive at the name ... by
thinking in terms of the most
conspicuous, eccentric silhou
ette . . ."
Dior makes a few observations
about his clients, except to tell
of one customer "disloyal" to

her dressmaker and the men in
her life. Dior said one of the
woman's friends paid her cloth
ing bills at Rath's, the other at
Dior's. Neither boy friend nor
couturier knew of the existence
of the other. But one day the
woman came into the Dior sa
lon, wearing a Fath suit.
"In the middle of a fitting,"
Dior recalled, "she realized her
mistake. She whipped out her
diary, checked the date, the dress

BLM Awaiting Word
Of Cutbacks in Sum
For Western Oregon
By A. ROBERT SMITH

Robt smith The Forest
Service has already been cut
back S2.5 million from the
amount Congress appropriated
for its forestry programs. Big
gest item in this cut was $1,000,
000 taken from its road building
program.
Many other government agen
cies are up in the air about how
much they can spend on western
resource development programs
because of an order from the
Budget Bureau intended to hold
down government spending.
Purpose of the spending limi

1 tional debt. The president's fiscal
advisors have warned him that
it is necessary to curb spending
to prevent the government from
shooting up through the national
debt ceiling of $275 billion.
Wants To Avoid Increase
Only Congress can authorize
an increase in the debt ceiling,
and the lawmakers won't be in
session again until January. The
administration wants to avoid
having to ask for an increase in
the debt limit. In recent weeks,
the debt has been precariously
close to the ceiling. It now stands
at about $272.5 billion, but it
shifts up and down daily with
Treasury balance sheets on gov
ernment securities, taxes and ex
penditures. How big the cutbacks may be
is still guesswork. Secretary of
Interior Fred Seaton said he
doesn't expect the new spending
allowances will impede any pro
grams, but he still doesn't know
how much his department can
spend.
Abcrve Last Year
For its program of recreation
area improvements called "Op
eration Outdoors," the Forest
Service had planned to spend
$11.5 million this year. But Con
gress, in the Capitol Hill econo
my wave, trimmed this to S8.7
million. This was still well above
last year when they got only $3
million. The Budget Bureau has
now trimmed their apportion
ment to $8 million, for a $700,
000 cutback.
Northwestern members o f
Congress are critical of the fact
that in the trimming operation
now underway, funds for timber
access roads are being reduced.
Sens. Wayne Morse and Richard
L. Neuberger, in a joint letter,
have jumped on this by arguing
that this will in turn reduce gov
ernment receipts from timber
sales and not result in govern
ment economy.

George N. How far can a

I am a widower of 65. A year
ago I married a widow,' who
claimed to be 45. Now I learn
that she has a son of nearly 40.
She was no child bride, either.
This woman dyes her hair and
spends hours every week in the
beauty parlor doing it. She
spends more on her hair than
I do for all my clothes each
year. Of course, she never told
me before she was married that
she dyes her hair.
All this is so different from
my first wife, who was the soul
of honor. Instead of spending all
those hours in the beauty parlor,
her only interest was in making
me and the children happy. She
is gone 15 years now and I miss
her more' every day. She could

Iowa Football Team Hard Hit by
Flu; Arizona Situation Serious
By UNITED PRESS
Flu may be the toughest op
ponent some of the nation's col
legiate football teams face all
season.
At least 15 University of Iowa
gridders were sidelined today in
one of the latest outbreaks of
the disease. They were among
about 200 Iowa students report
ed stricken in the past three
days. .
Coach Forest Evashevski said
third string end Jerry Jenkin
son was the only player con
fined to the infirmary but the
others, including All-American
tackle candidate Alex Karras,
were out of action.
Arizona Player Sick
He said there had been no dis
cussion of canceling the open
ing game of the 1957 season
Saturday against Utah State.
Arizona State Coach Max
Spilsbury, at Flagstaff, said
about a dozen of his players
were out with the flu. t
He said the situation was "ser
ious but not critical" and the
school was going ahead with
plans to play Redlands Univer
sity of California Saturday.
Neither outbreak has been
definitely shown to be the Asian
strain of the disease.
Doctors at Iowa City said pre
liminary tests on the virus there
indicated it was not Asian flu.
They said the football players
all had been inoculated for the
disease.
Meanwhile, in Tallahassee,
Fla., health officers said flu was
sweeping the campuses of two
state universities and reported
more than 5,000 "mild cases."
They said there were no pres
ent plans to close public facil
ities since such action had not
been shown to be of help in flu
epidemics.
Smear tests are under way to
determine the exact variety of
the outbreak
Toledo Situation 'Explosive'
In Ohio, state Health Director
Dr. Ralph E. Dwork termed a
I know he thought I was 45?
Is it a crime to look young? Why
I would I tell him my son's age?
What business is it of his? I'm
exactly 58 young enough for
mm, l nope.
He is so stupid he doesn't real
ize that all women dye their
hair these days. His first wife
was probably doing it for years
without his knowing about it.
So who is the deceiver anyway?
Certainly not me! I'm honest
and outspoken about everything.
As long as comparisons are
being made, I might mention that
my first husband never said a
harsh word to me in my life.
This one cuts like a knife every
time he opens his mouth. We're
ready to call it quits.
The Council: Let's look at it
this way, George.
For some 50 years of your
life women devoted themselves
to making you happy. First, your
mother, then your deceased wife.
You've been lucky, but also
unlucky. You've never had the
experience of trying to make
someone else happy. You have
been deprived of one of the most
wonderful experiences in life.
You are now 65 and you are
suddenly presented with the
chance to taste this new and
rare pleasure. It nearly escaped
you entirely. Will you try it
or do you prefer to be alone
and think about how happy
your first wife would make you
if she were with you?

Home sites at Howard Prairie

until late 1959 at the earliest,
according to bureau of land

They said applicants need not
worry about "being left out in

there are more applicants than
homesites a public drawing will
be held.
The BLM has not worked out
details of the sites yet. Before
drawings can be held, complete
details and a survey must be
made. Applications will not be
received until details are
worked out, officials in the
Medford office said.

The summer home sites are

aside two areas of the west side,
one on the east and one island
as public usage areas. A portion
of the southwest side of the
