MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE The unbelted silhouette gives a carefree look to cotton knits. Typical of the present trend is Haymaker's easy - going blouson chemise with a low drawstring waistline. Cotton Knit Has Wardrobe Answer Cotton knits this year an swer wardrobe needs for every hour and any occasion. They pack easily and unpack and primp up at a minute's notice, reports the National Cotton council. Cotton knits spell high fash ion and versatility at easy prices. This season, cotton knits have a dual-personality for double-duty action. They are styled for at-home and play; for town and work and for dates. Striped, dotted, tex tured and flowered, cotton knits are an important trend in American sportswear. The ensemble is smart in a ribbed cotton knit chemise with matching Chesterfield coat. Printed cotton knit jackets top solid or printed knit skirts. Even plaid cotton knits are a refreshing addi tion in soft pastel - colored pants and overblouse coordin ates that are worn with a middy-styled jacket. All kinds of styles and col ors are featured for the wo man who likes to mix, match, pair-off and interchange her wardrobe. Half-belted, blou- sed, buttoned or bowed, cot ton knits have an individual ity all their own. As a striped chemise day dress sporting a front half- belt, cotton knit looks smart for daytime. It looks right for after five in a matelasse knit.

TriumpK Credited To Callas By ROBERT CRAM United Press Correspondent Chicago (IP) Temptestu ous Marie Meneghini Callas scored one of the greatest tri umphs of her career Wednes day night, overcoming a case of nerves to sing seven arias and captivate a Chicago audi ence. The prima donna, admitting she was "nervous but happy," appeared near the breaking point when she wag rushed by photographers shortly before ging on stage, but she sudden ly relaxed and her perform ance came off smoothly. . A sell-out-crowd of 3,800 persons, many of them socia lites, jammed the opera house for the Alliance Francaise benefit performance, and she received a standing ovation necessitating more than a doz en curtain calls at the end. Triumphant Return It was a triumphant return for the temperamental Mme. Callas who began her opera tic career in Chicago and once vowed never to appear here again after a hassle with pro cess servers. ' The performance also was considered a stern test for the Brooklyn born beauty, com ing as it did on the heels of a near riot she touched off in Rome three weeks ago when she quit after the first act of Norma. Chicago critics lauded her performance in glowing terms. Don Henahan of the Chicago Daily News wrote: "Maria Meneghini Callas can still cut the mustard as an opera singer. "The applause was justi fied, too. No opera singer in active duty today can seize an audience's imagination and command its respect as com pletely as Marie Callas did here. Not always a triumph of pure vocalism, her per formance was great theater. Still The Queen "Marie Callas is still queen of that strange kingdom: grand opera." 1 Claudia Cassidy of the Chi cago Tribune called Mme. Callas' singing "magnificent." "She has a marvelous tech nique, a deeply probing, viv idly projected sense of drama, and the widest range of any singer I have known." The Callas program was changed at the last minute, and included three arias by Verdi and one each by Boito, Mozart and Rossini. . The climax came in her fi nal aria of the night, the "Mad Scene" from "Hamlet" by Thomas. After the performance, Ma ria smiled through tears and said "I'm very happy. Now I can sleep again." Skiers Leave A group of six ski enthusi asts left today to spend a week at Sun galley in Idaho. They are making the trip by car. In the group are Miss Lynn Williams, William Brooks, Howard Dugan, William Mof fat, Robert Bills and William Patton.

Parents should know what their sons and daughters are doing and with whom they are spending their time, and should also know what time their young people return home. A proper attitude con sisting of cooperation, respect and love should exist between parents and youth." This first basic rule quoted from the Oregon Code of High School Students was present ed as the foundation for a stu dent paneL discussion at the January meeting of the Eagle Point High School Parent Teacher - Student association. Miss Sandra Farlow, Miss Phyllis Briggs, Dick Schauble and Duane Anderson were the student panel members who had represented this school at the governor's conference for youth held in Salem re cently. Panel members discussed parent-youth planning, home entertaining, citizenship, gen eral dating and hours, driving and state curfew, liquor and tobacco laws. During a ques tion and answer period that followed, it was brought out that youth ethics concerning these subjects reverts back to the basic rule of parent-youth understanding.

"I said it was a nice dress when she asked me, but I had my fingers crossed. She look ed like a mental patient. "I'm convinced that all we men have to do is muster our courage and tell the women folks how ridiculous they look." Well, his brave effort to stem the tide of spring fash ion started me thinking. Do men in general really disap prove of the loose-fitting style which dominated spring col lections shown by New York leaders recently? Man On The Street Man on the street should provide the answers. So I set forth with examples, in pic ture form, of chemises and some which showed off the shape, including one model of an Oleg Cassini cocktail dress bared to the waistline and kept from the censors only by black lacing and nude net un derneath the slash. Results of study: The soc iety has plenty of potential members, a few "antis," and some neutrals. "What's her phone num ber?" said cab-driver Aaron L. Siegel, when he looked at the picture of the Cassini mod el. "Like that sack look? Lady, I didn t like it when the flap pers wore it." Neutrals included husbands of two men on this year's list of the world's best-dressed women, compiled by the New York Dress Institute. -William Paley, chairman of the board of CBS, whose wife is a perennial, said "I don't wish to comment on the chem ise." "I don't pay much attention to those things," said Thomas Bancroft, Jr., New York tex tile executive whose wife is a first-timer on the list this year. A Diplomat "The sack looks great on a tall, slim figure," said one Madison Avenue type. Turn ed out he dates a tall, slim girl-model. Another found the loose fit a welcome change because It "suggests curves, instead of throwing them at you." He is in the apparel industry. I asked Michael Futas, a District Nurses Honor Member During Roll Call Mrs. Margaret Hamilton Nelson, member of District 4, Oregon Nurses association, and former member of the Army Nurse corps, has been selected by the district to be honored during the annual roll call week of American Nurses' association. The ob servation opened Monday and continues through January 27. Mrs. Nelson, who has lived in Medford since 1952, is supervisor of the operating room of Rogue Valley Me morial hospital. A native of Minnesota, she received her nurses' training at St. Mary's School of Nursing in Su perior, Wis., and Milwaukee County hospital in Wisconsin. Her professional career in cludes hospital duty in Wis consin, and service as an in dustrial nurse at Butler Ship yards in Superior. Mrs. Nel son entered the Army Nurse corps in 1945 and after "train ing was sent to the 30th Sta tion hospital located in the jungle about 100 miles from Calcutta, India. Returning to the United States, after a year, Mrs. Nelson was em ployed as an office nurse for an internist for six .years be fore coming to Medford. She has served as treasurer of District 4, and on the mem bership committee of the state association for two years. Mrs. Nelson is the wife of Walter G. Nelson. Pinkerton man who guarded the door of the Pierre hotel ballroom for one full week during the Dress Institute showings. It was his first fa shion assignment. "Lady, this has been an ed ucation!" said Futas. "I used to stand outside a store while my wife shopped. Now, I'm going in with her, and she won't buy one of them chem ises. A woman should look womanly." One company which beats Paris and New York to the sack by several seasons is Be mis Brothers, in the business of making bags cotton, bur lap, paper and canvas for the last 100 years. "The silhouette is horrible" said New York sales manag er, A. F. G. Raikes. "It's in sulting a sack to call that new style a sack." - .J" : Mrs. Margaret Nelson Baked Fish You may not be a fish fan but there'll be four delighted people when you serve thii fish favorite.
