Ac for individuality, they de manded more ''distinctive" ex erior colors and objected to "development'' homes. Xo single house style won majority favor. Slichtly more than a third wanted a split level home, nearly that many preferred the ranch house style, while the rest liked a two-story colonial. But nearly all agreed on wanting more trees, and felt builders should be prohibited from stripping them all off a lot.

Coffee-Coconut Shell Good for Ice Cream New York 'F If last minute guests finds you with plain ice cream the only dessert on hand, give it a company touch by serv ing in a coffee-coconut shell.

One of the major shortcom ings they found in today's homes and equipment was a "lack of information"' from builders, manufacturers and salesmen about the house itself but not close to shopping and care of the equipment. Four out of five .Americans believe in the United Nation?, but only one of the four does something about this belief. This is one of the sobering facts brought out by UX publications received here last week in preparation for the annual observance of United Nations week. With the tense world situation adding impetus to plans started weeks ago, Mayor John Snider. UN chapter president George Rode and Mrs. Harlan Bosworth. chapter program chairman, and others are hard at work to focus the attention of all valley citizens on the United Nations, its hopes and accomplishments. The chapter will hold a special meeting Tuesday night in the annex of St. Mark's church to observe United Nations day. and Mayor Snider's committee plans a dinner Thursday night at the Medford hotel. Potpourri and PH were delighted when 71 reporters and com munity correspondents turned out for the annual training class Wednesday afternoon. Two of the correspondents also turned the class into a reunion after 20 vears. Mrs. Clyde Kell. Gold Hill. the former Mary Force, and Mrs. Charles Hughes, Central Point, the former Doris Johnson, attended high school together in Gold Hill, and had not seen one another since the former graduated in 1937. When Mrs. Kell started to write for the Tribune about a year ago, Mrs. Hughes read her columns and at length called her friend and they chatted over the phone. Mrs. Hughes finally de cided that if Mary Kell could write a column for Gold Hill, she could do the same for Central Point, and made the arrangements. But it was not until Wednesday's press school that the two former schoolmates met again. Actor Bill Oylcr is still spending a part of every week day reading back issues of The Mail Tribune and its predecessor. The Southern Oregonian, as he does research on early-day theater in the Rogue valley. There's no better way to find examples of "then and now" such as this item in the Southern Oregonian on November 9, 1907. "The barber shop proprietors of Ashland got together the other day and prices of some of their products have gone up a notch. The price of a plain shave remains 15 cents, but haircuts here after will cost 35 cents. Single neck shaves will be 10 cents (5 cents in connection with other work.) Curling the mustache will be 10 cents. Those who indulge themselves in a massage will pay 35 cents, while the price of a shampoo is fixed at 25 cents. Shops will remain closed Sundays and holidays, and will close each evening except Saturday at 8 o'clock." 1 ...... . iSSSSiSiMvafcNw, v.v.-KSTv. os; DON COSSACK CHORUS The Don Cossack Chorus, shown above, will appear at Medford High schol auditorium under the auspices of the Medford Junior Chamber of Commerce Thurs day, Oct. 31. The Chorus this year is observing its 17th anniver sary of its first American performance, which was during the San Francisco World's fair. Members of the Chorus are all American citizens. New Salad Tumbler Used by Home Chefs New York V, Home chefs I mix the greens for salads simply by tumbling them in two poly ethlyene bowls that join to make one leak-proof container. A measuring cup is provided in the bottom of one bowl for the dressing. The bowl also indi cates the amount of greens for specific servings. After the bowl is filled with ingredients it is covered with its top bowl mate and the salad is tumbled. MOCK OYSTERS Resembling a fried oyster is the only relationship this recipe claims for its name. Set the ther mostatically controlled gas burn er at 375 degrees and heat the griddle. Then blend l1, cups cooked fresh corn, 2 egg yolks. 'i teaspoon salt, 1 tablespoon cream and 2 teaspoons of flour. Fold in two egg whites, stiffly beaten. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto a hot greased griddle and cook until brown on each side. Serve with pork chops or fried chicken. M&''if mmMS Safe Prkelmm mmwK - rmWMW I mmsL.

And so this may be the last time Potpourri ever writes ABOUT mistakes. Nothing further do we promise. Last week when Mrs. John McCabe came back from San Francisco, where she attended the opera and visited with her son, Stephen, she called Potpourri and the two of us had a crying towel session over the results of our collaboration on the Kelly McCabe wedding story. Mrs. McCabe, we might add, remained calmer over the entire affair than did Potpourri. A scanning of the wedding questionnaire, for about the steenth time, disclosed the fact that the name of Eugene Piazza was not on the list of ushers. However, this in no way consoled the society editor for the fact that the paper had substituted the name of the bride's brother-in-law for her father at one point in the story. Reporting on the trip, Mrs. McC. said she had enjoyed the two opera performances very much, and that her son, who is studying for the priesthood, had been able to attend one production. Stephen is now enrolled in St. Albert's House of Study, Oakland, Calif. Mrs. McCabe had made her stay in the city more enjoyable also by having a small party, including among the guests the newly married Patrick Fords (Cynthia Jackson) and Dr. Brian j Stringer and his wife, the former Jane Durno. The Stringers, who went to Dr. Stringer's home city in New Zealand to live after their wedding, have now returned to the United States and are 1 living in San Francisco while Dr. Stringer serves a residency in one of the hospitals. The dog which recently bit Policeman Tomlin Furnas is making the officer famous. At least, his name is traveling around the world. Saturday's mail brought a note from Mrs. Roy Funder burk, the former Alicia Abbott of Phoenix, who said she read of the incident in the Tokyo edition of Pacific Stars and Stripes. "You can imagine the thrill I received to find some news of a very dear city over 7.000 miles away," she wrote. Mrs. Funder- ; burk's husband is stationed at the Yokosuka Naval base in Japan, and she flew to Japan to join him last spring, leaving the same day that she was graduated from high school. O.S. Woman Teaching Government Employees Letter Writing By PETE ROBINSON United Press Correspondent Washington A charming land attractive woman from Laurel, Miss., is out to kill the I "gobbledygook" of the English language. She is Miss Kay Pearson, who is teaching federal government I employees to write letters that I other people can understand. The word "gobbledygook" re- ; fers to the long-winded, confus ing and sometimes meaningless : language in government corre ; spondence. And since the gov ernment writes more than a bil lion letters every year, with tne taxpayer, juiss Pearson s job his an important one. l She alreadv has marked nn victories although the "plain letters workshop" isn't a year old. It operates under the gov ernment's General Services Ad- : ministration, which seeks to ; simplify government paperwork. The workshop has been held for 30 agencies since it started last January. And federal offi cials already are handing in glowing reports of the reada bility of the letters that cross their desk?. When Kay Pearson is not showing the government how to get to the point quickly, she's ' probably out in the garden of the Georgetown home she shares with two other women. She is devoted to the garden and tends it the year round. Varied Career One administration official said he never has seen that gar den, but "If she works at it like she does around here, it's really something." Miss Pearson received her Master of Arts degree in Eng lish from the University of Ala bama and later taught English literature and composition at a junior college in Mississippi. She started work for the gov ernment in 1935 when she join ed the Census Bureau and since then has worked for the Public ! Health Service, the Treasury i Department, the Veteran's Ad ' ministration and the Navy. Popular with both the big and little brass in General Services. ; she has a reputation for kind ; ness and courtesy. : Miss Pearson is confident that sooner or later, the plain letters workshop can be given to all of the government's nearly 22 hun dred agencies. Recently the Army invited her over to the Pentagon and there is talk that the Internal Revenue Bureau may ask for the workshop.
