VOTE FOR For County Clerk Scott for County Clerk Committt Marion Beeson, Chairma Talent, Oregon Lily Ponds Gives Tips On Packing By GAY PAULEY United Press Women's Editor New York (IP) Around Manhattan: Taking a trip? Take a pack ing tip from Lily Pons, the pint sized prima donna whose concert tours take her an average of 60,000 miles each season. Keep luggage to a minimum and wear slacks on a long haul. Miss Pons' regular tour has just ended, and she's prepar ing for a summer vacation in her native France. Her con certs took her cross country a couple of times, and added to this mileage were trips to Europe and from her New York apartment to her other home in Palm Springs, Calif. Keep Number Down "I usually keep the works down to two suitcases," said Miss Pons. "Both are plastic, washable and flexible. I can pack as many as 15 outfits, including my furs. I have to admit that sometimes I do take a third case for shoes when I want to splurge," Miss Pons didn't say so, but her feet are something to show off. She wears a size three and one-half shoe. One formal dress for her stage appearance goes along with her, but. is shipped back as soon as the concert is over. Her maid automatically sends another to the next town for which she is booked. The coloratura recently has had her dark brown hair bleached to the palest shade of blonde. 'To tell the truth," she said, "I gave up on hats five years ago. But this hair do, short and puffy, would be crushed under one of those flower gardens." No Headache Band Miss Pons is one chic woman who hasn't gone for the head ache band fad. But just about every other New Yorker with a short and shaggy hair-do has. The bands even have moved into the lounge-wear market. One manufacturer shows "sleeping bands" to match the pajama fabric. Current fabrics are reflect ed in new watch designs. The Swiss watchmakers are out with a "trapeze" bracelet watch, with ladder-like band. The delicate, gold rungs, are v-shaped and anchored to the slim double band by rubies. Another design, dubbed the sack, is of pliable gold mesh which fits the wrist as loosely as some of this year's dresses fit the figure. In their "futuristic" group, the watchmakers have a whole batch of bulky, geo metric designs. One case is shaped like a fat tube of lip stick; another is a half bubble or dome; others are outsize squares and triangles. 4 Caesar Muzzioli Plays for Group Music was the theme for the last meeting of Wednes day Study club. Caezar Muzzioli was the guest artist and played sev eral classical and semi-classical numbers. Mr. Muzzioli, formerly of Boston, has been a student of the accordion since the age of five having studied in Boston under Sal vatore Gulizia and later in New York under Pietro Deiro, conceded to be the greatest ac cordionist in the world. Mrs. R. J. Miller read an article on the history of mu sic, beginning with the primi tive people and continuing through the ages of the pres ent culture and sophistication of music. Mrs. Miller conclud ed with short biographies of Bach, Wagner, Mozart, Bee thoven, Handel and other great musicians.

PERFECT Other Lines Include: AMERICAN TOURISTER ATLANTIC LUGGAGE Time Pay PLAN If Desired I Polio Vaccine Price Fix Charges Result in Denials Trenton, N. J.(m Offi cials of five drug companies indicted on charges of fixing prices and monopolizing the production of Salk polio vac cine have denied the charges. Reacting, swiftly, and in some cases angrily, . spokes men for the firms labeled the government's charges "com plete nonsense" . t. . "fantas tic" . . . "without substance" .' . . "a poor reward for the courage of management." Year-Long Probe The indictment handed up Monday by a 23-member fed eral Grand Jury climaxed a year-long . investigation into alleged price-fixing and other illegal practices in the distri bution of the vaccine. Indicted were Eli Lilly & C?o., Indianapolis; Allied Lab oratories, Inc., Kansas City, Mo.; American Home Prod ucts Corp., New York; Merck & Co., Rahway, N.J.; and Parke Davis & Co., Detroit. The indictment prompted a quick drop in the price of stock in four of the firms on thej-New York Stock Ex change. Most severely affect ed was Parke Davis, which showed a loss as much as 3V points. The government charged that the five firms produced 205 mililon shots of the vac cine worth $125 million from April, 1955, to December, 1957. During this period they were the only producers of the vaccine in the United States. . Postscript to Achievement . . Eugene Beesley, president of Eli Lilly, the largest pro ducer of the vaccine, said in Indianapolis the charges were "complete nonsense." - "It is incredible that as a postscript to one of our great est achievements we should now have to face this fantas tic suit," he said. James T. Cahill, treasurer of Allied Laboratories, said in Kansas the indictment was "a poor reward for the cour age of management of a pri vate business in risking the company's capital in order to participate, in a government sponsored program to pro-, duce an effective preventative of this tragic disease."
