Stylist Ernest Adler Combs Tresses of Prettiest TV Stars By FRED DANZIG United Press Correspondent New York (IP With Joe Di Maggio retired, hair stylist Ern est Adler can stake a claim to the old nickname of "The Yan kee Clipper." The 32-year-old native of Bos ton has the privilege of run ning his fingers through the tresses of television's prettiest performeri and getting paid for it. His satisfied customers include the 13 girls on the Perry Como show, Patti Page, Patrice Mun sel, Polly Bergen, Faye Emer son and. the multitude of per formers female, who drop in for TV guest shots. Adler, with seven assistants, heads a strategic hair force that also tucks in or fluffs out the curls of actresses in Broadway shows. "The hair designs for 'My Fair Lady' are my greatest work," says Adler. "They thought so much of hair for that show they spent $7,000 on it," he adds proudly. Adler's own brown hair is worn in what he calls "Mr. John Style," for the noted hatmaker. Formerly known as a Napoleon hairdo, this appears to be noth ing more than a crew cut that won't stand up. If Adler's hair suddenly turns gray on him, chances are it will happen on a Saturday, his most hectic time. .Busy Day At 11 a.m. on Saturday, he usually starts by hustling over to the Como show to dry comb the girls. Como, a former comb-and-scissof man, attends to other details of the show. Then Adler hops over to the Metropolitan Opera house to prepare the sing ers for the matinee performance. After this, it's back to Como, time out for a quick snack, back Level of Mediocrity Rising In America, Says Designer By GAY PAULEY United Press Women's Editor New York (IP) Paul Mc Cobb, a leader in home furnish ings design, says the year 1957 produced a higher "level of mediocrity" than we'vi had in years. "I'm encouraged about the fu ture," said McCobb, who in 15 years of design has won numer ous citations. "We had many highlights, and iome all too ob vious low-lights. But the high lights won." McCobb said our taste generally is improving . . . "the level of mediocrity, is up." McCobb, a man who speaks his mind no matter what the results, offered to list for the United Press the good and bad of the 1957 design word, from cars to coffe tables. Color Proper Except Cars "There were some highlights in 1957 not easily recognizable because they had been growing in acceptance previously," said McCobb. He referred to proper use of color, other than in auto mobiles, noticeable in fabrics, floor coverings and other home products. "I was delighted to see the comeback of the sky and sea blues," said the designed. "Two years ago in decorating, blue was a dead word. Yet it's one of the basics. "The island carpet is another of the cumulative design effects . . . an innovation that creats little focal points of warmth and eye appeal in the home. "And here, we might mention as one of the highlights, the growing interest in warm, tex tured woods, such as walnut and teak. Okay for Haciendas "Another has been the use of plastics in its true sense, for the new and colbrful accessories for the kitchen. And beyond all doubt, the re-discovery of the versatility of aluminum is the beginning of a new and excity trend. Its cool, handsome look . . . will unquestionably be furth er developed . . . for our homes in 1958." "Low-lights in design almost always fall into the category of gimmicks," said McCobb. "Its equivalent in furniture is the new pseudo Spanish-Mexican trend, totally unsuited to the de LUCERNE MIXED AND READY FOR ENTERTAINING AT tSi) Bis mm to the Met for the evening per formance, back to Como for a final hair check, and finally, to Polly Bergen's to fix her hair for her Saturday night show. "If there's ever a Saturday night opening on Broadway, I'm dead," says Adler. A pet Adler hate is the TV commercial that aspires to sell hair products. "The Madison Avenue guys want every hair to be in place in those commer cials," he says. "I say if every hair is in place, you look like a freak. Nobody has every hair in place. Look at your hair." We did as directed. Looked somewhat windblown, too. "I like hair to look like hair," Ad ler continued. No Sissies Her Another Adler target, besides hair that's too neat, is the atti tude on the part of males that hairdressing is for sissies. "The time is past when men can look upon it that way," he said. "The fact is that it's a masculine oc cupation. Men know more about how a woman should look than women do." Adler's work is done in con junction with lighting directors and costumers. "You must be sure hair doesn't cast unflatter ing shadows. And you must flat ter face contours, too." At present, Patti Page keeps him busy on Wednesday nights. Each new gown she wears on her one-hour show calls for a new hairdo. Some nights Adler twirls and shapes her locks into six different styles. He's used to working on heads in-motion during backstage com motion and admits even he moves around a lot when in a barber's chair. "I loathe it when they start snipping and fussing with my hair," he said. "I give my own barber a rough time." mands of our life today, except maybe for the few . . . who still live in haciendas." McCobb chastised the automo tive industry for its "Christmas tree arrangement of headlights, tail lights, spotlights and the standard afflicition chromitis. Not to mention the decorator selected three-toned color schemes . . . conceived by whose decorator?" 4 Two Oregon Students To Take Rhodes Exams Portland (IP) Two Oregon students, one from Linfield and one from the University of Ore gon, go to Epokane Saturday to compete with 10 others for four Rhodes scholarships. They are James Gunton from Linfield and David Cass from Oregon. Both are seniors. Cass is an economics major and Gun ton majors in physics and chem istry. Turkey-Macaroni Salad New York HP) Leftover tur key and macraroni combine to make a different salad. Add 1 tablespoon salt to 3 quarts rapid ly boiling water. Gradually add" 8 ounces elbow macaroni (2 cups) while water continues to boil. Cook uncovered, stirring occa sionally, until tender. Drain in colander. Rinse with cold water and drain. Combine macaroni, 2 cups diced, cooked turkey, VA cups chopped celery, V4 cut sweet fresh cucumber pickles, W cup mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon grated onion,. teaspoon salt and Vb teaspoon pepper. Toss lightly. Chill and serve on crisp lettuce. Makes 4 to 6 servings. 4 Candy Cane Care New York (IP) Handle candy canes with care to keep them fresh and non-sticky. Keep in a cool, dry place until ready to eat or use as decoration, says candy maker Fanny Farmer. Eat within three or four days if you leave the canes unwrapped in an open candy dish. If exposed longer, they will become moist and sticky. When hanging candy canes on Christmas trees, tie a thin ribbon to the crook of the cane without pressure. Do not use wire, wire cord, metallic string or cellophane tape. par 3 Ill SAFEWAY" HILTS Annual Club By MRS. M. F. CAVIN .
