Today's explorer of the ma O caroni shaves in the super market and in the "little It aly" shopping centers of met ropolitan cities can find as many as 300 different shapes and sizes. The most frequent ly used shapes however are: macaronia, the tubular shape in short elbows and lengths; ) spaghetti, the solid rod form available in varying de grees of thickness; and egg . noodles, the ribbon-like pieces in varying widths. Other pop ular shapes are corrugated el bows, coiled or bunched rods alphabets, shells, bows, and stars.

By DAYTON MOORE United Press International Ottawa (UPI) Back stairs at the White House: The visit of President and Mrs. Eisenhower here was in formal from a protocol stand point. But it presented . as many clothes problems for the First Lady as if it had been formal. To get her wardrobe ready for it, she passed up a Fourth of July week end with the President at their Gettys burg, Pa., farm and stayed at the White House. The White House refused to give out any advance informa tion on the clothes that she brought with her. But on sim ilar trips in the past, Mrs. Eisenhower generally has worn different clothes for each public or social appear ance. That would have meant seven or eight ensembles for different luncheons, dinners, receptions and Dublic appear ances here in addition to' travel outfits.

'Guessers' Figure Future Power Loads Chicago (UPI) A team of "educated guessers" and an apparatus at Illinois Insti tute of Technology called a network analyzer are helping power companies determine their peak loads for years ahed. The team, composed of ITT and power firm engineers, work together at intervals throughout the year providing predictions down to the last detail. The "educated guessers," try to foresee the expected consumption of electricity for a given year in the future, set up an entire generating sys tem in a diagram and feed the diagram into the analyzer for a check. It sometimes takes as long as a day to set up the propos ed system on the analyzer, which covers three walls of a 30-by-20-foot room.

It stated pur pose was to straighten out con fused "students of public af fairs who are, not versed in the intricate vocabulary of golf." The editorial-explained that in this case "mulligan" neith er was the name of a stew nor "the name of a hero in the war against the black and tan." Instead, it was as any golf er, particularly a duffer, pub lic affairs aside, knows "is the term used for a second shot off the first tee when the player doesn't like the looks of the first one." The editorial noted t h a t r some golf courses frown on mulligans or even forbid them "with signs on the first tee as follows: "no mulligans'." How ever, Eisenhower doesn't go along. He commented in hit ting three drives to start the record - breaking, for him, round that he believed in try ing until he connected with a satisfactory drive. But he play ed his second one, the true mulligan, despite the fact that his third drive was longer and straighter.
