T I 1 J ' utners trom 0 SPECIALISTS IN 245 S. Central at 10th ionni who would make election news only if she decided against running, the women have happily signed up again. It was an aide of Mrs. Rog ers who quipped that the situ ation means "the men just can't take it." The List His 75-year-old boss, who has served 17 consecutive terms and ranks 10th to Speaker Sam Rayburn i n years in the House, has filed again. Three of her male col leagues from Massachusetts have decided to drop by the political wayside. ' Rep. Kathryn Granahan (D Pa.) is one of the House new comers who has followed Mrs. Rogers' lead. She won in the May primary. The other incumbent wom en, besides Granahan, Rogers and Knutson who have an nounced are: Republicans: Mrs. Frances P. Bolton, Ohio; Mrs. Cecil Harden, Indiana; Mrs. Katha rine St. George, New York; and Mrs. Florence P. Dwyer, New Jersey. Democrats: Mrs. Iris Blitch, Georgia; Mrs. Martha W. Grif fiths, Michigan; Mrs. Edith Green, Oregon; Mrs. Elizabeth Kee, West Virginia; Mrs. Edna F. Kelly, New York; Mrs. Gracie Pfost, Idaho, and Mrs. Lenour Sullivan, Missouri. In the Senate, where six men all Republicans have decided not to run, the lone woman, Sen. Margaret Chase Smith, has two more years in her term. The Democratic National Committee reports that five new Democratic women so far have won primaries and are in races for House seats along with the nine Democratic in- (cumbents. . Bryan's Granddaughter Included in the group is Mrs. Rudd Brown in Califor nia s 21st District a grand daughter of William Jennings Bryan and daughter of a for mer congresswoman from Florida, Mrs Ruth Bryan Owen Rhode. Four other Democrat wom en have entered primaries and there may be more before the last state filing date, July 31. Neither the Republican Na tional Committe nor the Re publican Congressional Cam paign Committee has a com plete tally of new GOP wom en candidates. But one is Mrs. Lawrence H. Smith, widow of the late congressman from Ra cine, Wis., who is running for the seat her husband held for 17 years. If all 15 incumbents and one or more of the newcomers are successful, the number of women in Congress would equal or top the record high of 16 reached the first session of the 4th Congress, before the death in 1955 of Rep.

' " Museum Plans Exhibition of Japanese Work. Portland Art-crafts from Japan in fascinating variety screens, pottery, lacquer, bamboo work, wonderful silks will be shown at the Port land Art Museum July 16 August 3 in the "Contem porary Japan" exhibition es pecially created for the mu semu by the Japan Trade cen ter of San Francisco. Exhibits will range from original museum pieces val ued at hundreds of dollars to charming small household accessories that anyone may own from purely decorative hangings, figures, pictures and vases to such articles of every day use as tea cups and ash traps from objects of dis tinctively Japanese custom like hibachi and sake bottles and covered lacquer soup bowls to things designed for western export, such as carved wooden salad sets. A number of pieces shown are unique original creations of "name" artists, wrought each by hand, never to- be du plicated. Others are of mod ern factory production. All have been selected, first for their distinction and beau ty of design and for authen tic merit, second for their in terest to westerners and their adaptability to western use and decoration. Of several hundred articles shown from a bamboo bird cage to a tem ple dancer's mask almost every one would make an in teresting addition to Ameri can furnishings, and are rep resentative of oriental decor rtow extremely popular throughout the United States. Handicapped Oyer Many Disabilities New York There are sev eral million homemakers in the United State who are physically handicapped in one way or another. How many of these women have been learn ing to overcome their handi caps, and live in a world of unhandicapped people, make a heart-warming story of cour age and determination, re ports the Institute of Life In surance. Handicapped homemakers are much more apt to be ac tive today than in the past, partly because of advances in rehabilitation, and partly be cause of the development of centers where special techni cal counseling is available for disabled homemakers.' One re cent count reveals there are about 40 such centers across the U. S.A. where counseling is now under way or, is .soon to be initiated. "Men and women can do amazing things despite handi caps," states Mrs. Julia S. Jud son, who is a consultant in home making at the Institute of Physical Medicine and Re habilitation. The Institute is a unit of the New York Univer-sity-Bellevue Medical center, and is widely known for its work with handicapped per sons. In earlier years, Mrs. Jud son points out, handicaps kept many a woman bedridden, and often meant that a mem ber of the family was tied down in the home to help care for her. Today's approach is to show a disabled woman how she can accept homemak ing responsibilities, and carry them out within the limits of her capacity.

ERSKIIIE'S PIANO STORE 1304 Kings Highway Research Expert Studies ; Fabric's Emotional Aooeal By GAY PAULEY UPI Women's Editor New York (UPI) There's more than meets the eye to the. fabrics we buy. Silk, for instance,, is "sens uously and sexually exciting," says one well known author ity on why we purchase what we do. . . We women select materi als not" only for coverage, but on the ba sis of emotion al appeal says Dr. Ernest President of the Institute for Motiva- Gay Pauley t i o n a 1 Re search, Croton - on - Hudson, N.Y. Dichter says that each of the basic textiles creates a variety of psychological reac tion. Writing in the current issue of "American Fabrics,' a magazine for the textile trade, Dichter listed some of fabrics' effect on us. He fur ther expanded on his observa tions , in an interview. Women Material Conscious "Women especially are al most as conscious of the ma terial they wear as they are of their own bodies." said Dichter. "Instinctively a worn an feels that the material she wears, or its design, reveals her entire personality." As Dichter has figured us out, we like silk not only be cause it is "sensuously and sexually exciting" but it is "personal, intimate and re vealing," is the "standard of excellence for refinement," is Women Win would like to save energy in their housework, but it be comes absolutely necessary for a woman to simplify her housework if she becomes handicapped by an accident, by age, or by an ailment such as arthritis or heart disease Automatic washing machines and driers are of considerable help, although it may be nec essary to elevate the drier to make loading and unloading more accessible. Much house work, especially ironing and food preparation, can be done sitting down. The new built in oven and range units now make it possible for cooking equipment to be located at any desirable level. Built-in sink units can be installed, along with lowered counter tops, at just the right height for energy saving. "We have totted up 120 'lit tle things' that many handi capped women have been able to learn to do things that many handicapped women have been able to learn to do things that most of us take for granted," Mrs. Judson says. "Imagine, for instance, what is involved for a woman who does not have full use of her arms to brush her teeth, or to wash her feet, to drive her car, to apply lipstick and other makeup. Or for the woman who does not have full leg mobility, to get off and on a bus, particularly tne ones with high steps." Even the extremely handi capped woman, bedridden be cause of complete immobility, can be a working homemaker to a degree, Mrs. Judson says. Rehabilitation centers teach many such women to become "home executives," with the responsibility of planning and supervising household affairs. This would include general supervision of buying, making up shopping lists and main taining the family budget. Active homemakers often take household planning for granted, and perhaps in the ordinary course of events, do not devote as much time as they might to this area of fam ily living. A severely handi capped homemaker can play ONLY O In All Finishes Phone SP 2-4296 gar5- If 1 a cool, gracious luxury and is "regal and exotic.",-- Cotton, Dichter said, is "friendly - without effusive ness or ostentation," indicates "innocence with a promise of underlying sexuality," is "cool and calm with a prom ise of hidden inner warmth," and is "clean and pure." Wool Called Masculine Wool is "masculine strong, rugged, protecting, flexible and sexually attractive," its tough exterior implies "a warm, tender life beneath the surface,", it is "sedate, con servative, cultured" and rep resents a-"respectable group life." Linen, he said, has "the ap peal of elegance." What about the synthetics the nylons, dacrons and or lons? Dichter said that "as might be expected, they lack this type of cultural and sen sory appeal" although, they may acquire it as we "become more familiar with them." "But today I think perhaps the chief appeal ... is their helpfulness for the housewife actually looks forward to the ease of care they promise," he said. 4 - Soap Sculpture Winners Named Two Medford students won honorable mention in the 31st annual national soap sculp ture contest sponsored by Procter and Gamble.
