    A MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford,
Paris Designers
Had Surprises
In Fall Show
By GAY PAULEY
Uniled Press International
Pari (LTD Paris fash
ion designers this year have
made a dame look like what
she is, a dame.
That's what it boils down
to, when you Review the high
lights of the fall and winter
collections from the designers
who finished their Paris show
ings this week.
They replaced the sack
with curves, left legs on dis
play and brought back the
waistline, although most of
them raised it from its nor
mal anatomical location.
Two designers pulled a
couple of big surprises. The
House of Dior dropped hem
lines 14 to 15 inches from the
floor, well below what most
other designers showed.
And Balenciaga, rated by a
lot of fashion critics as one of
Paris' "greats," clung to the
chemise-style silhouette. That
Is what the buyers reported
after this show; reporters will
not get a peek until later this
month.
Most of the accent on
curves is at the bust and neck
line. Not to be overlooked in all
the hemline-waistline talk, is
the news in fabrics. For day
time their bulk is outstanding
tweeds which look an inch
thick; lacy, airy mohairs; tex
tured woolens of all kinds.
Most patterns are small and
subtle: I could count on one
hand the big splashy plaids in
the collections.
Fabrics for evening are so
extravagant it would take a
sultan to afford some of the
dresses. They include heavy
silk crepes, satins, brocades,
cut velvets, printed faillies,
and chiffon. Not satisfied
with the lushness of fabric
itself, designers encrust them
all over with many colored
gems.
Dior stressed black as the
most important color for the
new season and it was a heavy
favorite with other designers.
But, throughout there was a
generous sprinkling of all the
reds and pinks, the mauve and
purple tones, many hlues and
some greens and browns.

Whore is the peddler when
you want your money back?
.We hear that fast-talking peddlers are going through the
neighborhood, selling vitamin preparations door-to-door.
If you should buy and then be dissatisfied what could you
do about it? Not a thing peddlers change towns the
way we change shoes. So it makes sense to do business
with an established firm, here today and here tomorrow.
Besides, a pharmacy is the only proper place to get
vitamin preparations, many of which lose strength if
handled or stored improperly.

If anyone doubts the size of the tourist crop in Oregon
this year, let him travel alpng the coast. They're coming
and going in every conceivable kind of a vehicle one
can hardly get off and on the highway, and every tourist
attraction, park and wayside area has all the way from
two to 20 or 50 cars, all filled with people intent on seeing
everything there is to see and doing everything there is
to do. And they are spending money.
Wednesday morning hordes of tourists, old, young, big
and little, were going up and down the stairs at the Sea
Lion caves, and when Potpourri went into a store in
Seaside to buy groceries, the place was mobbed. The
harassed man who piled our purchases into a sack stopped a
moment when I asked "Are these all tourists?" and
answered, after a glance around the store, "They must be
they look like it." And I
motley appearance, dressed in all sorts of on the road
clothes in all sorts of condition.
And a day like Wednesday is enough to bring more
and more tourists to Oregon. It was gorgeous clear and
reasonably warm, with only a little fog way out at sea,
and the seacoast of Oregon is truly, beautiful. Not only
was the ocean clear of fog and resplendent in all its blue
and green glory, but it was dotted with dozens of little
boats. Someone said there was a big salmon run on, and
there must have been. We saw the boats going out the
mouth of the Umpqua river as we made a quick trip into
Umpqua Lighthouse State, park, and later as we drove
up the coast they were visible for miles. At one time,
with the big field glasses, Potpourri could see 43. .
Today Potpourri "touristed" like all the, others. We
watched the sea lions on the -rocks, and got real excited
over the sight of two enormous sea creatures not far out
which everyone said were whales. They certainly were
large enough to be, and they "spouted" periodically.
Then we climbed down into the caves to watch the
"Stelleri Eumetopias" (that's what the little booklet calls
them) at close range. The small pigeon guillemots in the
cave, pretty little black things with white spots on their
wings, were as interesting as
the cormorants were the most
seen. And these birds always seem to fly with purpose
they don't just sail hither and yon as the gulls do. Large
numbers of the cormorants . are always found near the sea
lion caves.
It has been several years since we had motored up the
whole length of the Oregon coast and we can hardly be
lieve the change. Almost every town, particularly those
right on the shore catering to the tourist trade, have grown
greatly and there are many new buildings now under con
struction. The architecture in some instances is extremely
interesting, particularly in the case of the new little
churches, such as St. Paul's Lutheran, just north of Flor
ence, if we remember correctly.
Today we did something we've always wanted to do
we stopped at the York gardens to see the fuchsias. As
we had been warned, the place is not as beautiful as it once
was, but many will be interested to know that it has a new
owner one who took possession this week. His name is
Fred Huntress, formerly of Portland, and he plans to begin
at once to restore the fuchsias to their former beauty
and to stock a number of new varieties. Mr. Huntress has
relatives in Medford, and has visited the city many times.
Yesterday we also did something which we've been
planning for a long time. We took the boat trip up the
Rogue from Gold Beach. In spite of the fact that we've
been hearing about this trip for years, we really didn't
have any idea what it would be like. Particularly that 150
people would make the trip every day, on the average
There were five of the big boats, and each carried at least
30 passengers. The one labeled "U.S. Mail" took off first
and it was a good half hour before the rest of us were
all loaded and on our way.
As those who have made the trip know, the passengers
are polled as to what kind of a meal they want at noon;
if you say "steak" you go to Lucas lodge if you want
chicken you go to Singing Springs. We chose Lucas lodge
and upon our arrival at the "lodge" a huge old farm
house turned into a tourist spot the first persons we saw
were E. H. Hedrick and Mrs. Hedrick of Medford, and
Mr. H's cousin, Mrs. E. S. Rickard, Sacramento, Calif. The
three had been to Drain to attend an "old-timer's" annual
reunion, and decided to take the Gold Beach to Agness trip
en route home.
At our table at luncheon were two couples from Mc-
Minnville, and a remark made by one of the women proved
that Potpourri isn't quite the worst person in Oregon about
locations and distances, as Pappy has always claimed. She
asked "Isn't Crater Lake just over the hills here about 40
miles away?" We don't now exactly how far it is from
Agness to Crater Lake as the crow flies, but this we do
know, it's a lot further than 40 miles!
-
Potpourri didn't know that there were roads up both
sides of the Rogue as far as there are, or that they are being
extended. The woman at the desk of the Rogue Boat
service in Gold Beach said that about 75 or 80 families
live along the Rogue, including those at Agness and Illahe,
the year around, and that the number doubles in the
summer time.
She also said that the partly completed bridge we saw
quite some distance up the river is at Lobster creek and
that it is part of a new forest access rtoad being built into
the area jointly by the United States Forest service and
the United States Plywood company.
We hate to resist civilization, but somehow we dislike
to see the last sections of timberland falling to the saw
and axe.
The pretty young woman who answered our questions at
Lucas lodge said her grandfather had come into the area as
a young man with the idea of mining coal. He found some
deposits of good coal, she said, but the task of getting it
down the Rogue proved too much for him, and he abandoned
the venture. He stayed on however, to farm and raise
cattle and must have prospered, for he built an exceedingly
large farmhouse. Now the lodge has its own power plant

Egypt's Mrs.
Dislikes Palace
By PAT HERMAN
Uniled Press International
London (UPD Tahia Nas
ser's face is almost as unfa-
maliar in her own land, and
abroad, as her husband's is
familiar.
The wife of President Ab-
del Gamal Nasser and first
lady of the United Arab Re
public is virtually unknown
to the world beyond the Nile,
and not much better known
at home. Her recent visit with
Nasser to Yugoslavia was her
first journey outside Egypt.
She has remained so com
pletely behind the scene that
one high Egyptian official
said not long ago he was sur
prised to learn of her exist
ence. An interview I had with
Mrs. Nasser two years ago
was the first she ever gave to
a Western correspondent.
On that occasion plump,
dark - haired Tahia Nasser
sipped a soft drink and sur
veyed the magnificent gilt
throne room of the palace
that once belonged to deposed
King Farouk.
"I do not feel at home
here," she said in slow, stac
cato English.
Dislikes Palace
She obviously didn't. She
explained that their home in
the Abbasia military barracks
where they have lived since
Nasser assumed power was
being re-decorated. In the
meantime "the Nassers were
living in the presidential
palace. ,
"I would like to show you
the house,'' said the shy, soft
spoken woman.
Nasser vetoed the sugges
tion. He insisted that in the
Moslem tradition his wife
should remain in the back
ground. "Tahia likes it that way, i
said an old-time friend who
has known the Nassers since
Nasser's aunt and Tahia's
mother introduced them in
1944. ,
"She prefers cooking and
sewing to public life. She is
devoted to the children
Hoda, Mona, Khalid, Abdel-
Hamid, and Abdel-Hakim."
Tahia wanted her husband
to take her with him to Yugo
slavia on his "previous state
visit there in 1955 but it was
decided otherwise.
"She simply accepted his
word," said another close
friend. "In the days before
Nasser became president they
for electricity for lights,
cabinets.
The best part of the meal we had was the dessert,
vanilla ice cream with little wild blackberries, picked that
morning. We've said it before and we say it again, there
just isn't anything quite so good as the little wild black
berries.
The young woman explained that there is a road from
Agness a store and a schoolhouse to Powers, but that it
takes an hour and a half to drive the 36 miles "when the
road is good." The school, for elementary ' pupils only, has
about 10 children enrolled and those wanting to go to high
school must "move out." Some just finish the eighth grade,
she said, and don't go on to high school.
There was a sign leaning
the lodge which said "Agness, 199 population." When we
indicated the sign she said "If you're taking notes, don't say
anything about that. We're sensitive about that and we're
going to have the sign changed. It .really should read 200.

would occasionally go to the
movies. Now he does not have
time for that. She accepts this
too. To Tahia, his word is
gospel."
Dresses Simply
Mrs. Nasser dresses simply,
Her only makeup at the time
was lipstick and her only jew
elry a simple gold wedding
band. She wore medium
heeled white pumps with an
American-styled cotton dress.
Every time she referred to
"my husband" the deep-set
dark eyes lit up.
Tahia's simple, almost child
like faith in the man who
now rules the United Arab
Republic, goes back to the
early days of their marriage.
"He tells her very little and
what she knows about him
she keeps to herself," said one
of Nasser's' closest associates.
He recalled the morning in
pre-revolution days when Ta
hia, unaware of her husband s
attempt to overthrow the Fa
rouk regime, found a box of
hand grenades in a fruit crate
hiddenjmderneath their bed.
"She told me later that she
was terrified but that she
would never tell him that she
knew. Part of it was fear and
part of it the faith that he
could do no wrong."--

Muddy Taste of Fish
Removed by Salt Mix
Soak fish in salt water to
remove the muddy taste that
may show up this time of
year in fish taken from mud
bottom bodies of water, ad
vises an Oregon State college
specialist in wildlife manage
ment.4 Andrew Landforce says the
muddy taste may be removed
from Largemouth bass,
crappie, and bluegill sunfish
by skinning and soaking the
cleaned fish in salt water.
Put enough salt water in a
bowl to cover the fish. Use a
half cup of ordinary table salt
to two quarts of water. Mix
the fish and salt water thor
oughly, let soak for about one
hour, then rinse well.
Overnight soaking with a
weaker salt solution will
help "firm" flabby types of
fish such as Columbia river
smelt. While salt enhances
fish flavor for most people,
the specialist recommends ex
perimenting with strength of
salt water solution for indi
vidual tastes.

Researchers Look
For Wash-Wear
Finish "for Cotton
Washington (UPD The De
partment of Agriculture says
that dry cleaners soon should
be able to apply a wash -wear
finish to cotton clothes.
The department said its re
searchers, working with the
National Institute of Dry
Cleaning, have developed sev
eral resin finishes which re
sist wrinkles, are inexpensive
and can be applied by stan
dard dry cleaning equipment.
Cotton wash - wear gar
ments have been available for
years, but the finish has been
applied to the fabric before
it is made into clothing. This
fact, the department said, has
made it difficult to get flat
seams, hems or pockets, or to
press flat pleats.
Decorators have learned
that fabrics alone can trans
form a room's entire person
ality, concealing architectural
defects, even changing the
size and shape of the room.
