When Potpourri's daughter was in high school and college,
Pappy was wont to raise a bit of a fuss from time to time
over the size of her wardrobe, and he discounted her protests
that most girls had more clothes. Unless memory fails us, she
would have each year about six or eight woolen sweaters,
both pullovers and cardigans, and perhaps six skirts, along
with cottons and dress clothes.
Not long ago United Press International sent along a
story about a high school girl in New York. Queried about
her wardrobe she said "Most girls I know have 10 to 15
sweaters, 10 to 15 skirts, 5 party dresses, two or three coats
and a jacket for school, another coat for dress-up, 6 pairs of
slacks and 10 pairs of Bermuda shorts."
Spurred by the New York story, we decided to poll a
group of high school and college girls in this area, and at
the same time, Photographer Vroman took today's picture
page. Before writing anything else Potpourri would like to
say that we were highly impressed by the young women we
interviewed. They are friendly, yet somehow in earnest, in
telligent and seemingly eager to do well in classes as well as
socially; they tried to honestly answer the questions which
the society editor asked.
These girls, a representative cross section of both high
school and college level, have what some might consider as
large wardrobes. But they started acquiring them, as Romelle
Fossen said "as soon as I stopped growing." A good sweater
or skirt, purchased in the eighth or ninth grade will still be
in the wardrobe when the girl enters college. All said they
tried to take good care of their clothing; only a few new
articles are added each year. i
All seemed to squirm a bit, mentally, however when
pressed to state exactly what the size of their wardrobe is,
and some admitted that fewer clothes would actually be
adequate. College girls say that by the time they enter the
higher school they have learned how to handle-their ward
robe money better; some said they had fewer clothes for
college than for high school. All were emphatic on one point
-boys and girls are not judged by their clothes alone - many
with small or inadequate wardrobes are the most popular
and show the most outstanding qualities of leadership.
One earnestly said that she believed Medford High school
students put too much emphasis on clothes and added that
after meeting other students from all parts of the state,
she had decided other high schools paid less attention to
clothes.
'
DeLora Dunn, a junior in elementary education at Wash
ington State college in Pullman this fall, said "everyone at
school is on a light budget - clothes aren't so important."
She has about 20 sweaters and 10 skirts; the sweaters are
pullovers, cardigans and dressy ones for parties and dates.
In addition, most girls have a short silk or pretty wool dress
and dresses for formal wear.
The WSC co-ed says she has been acquiring her sweaters
since early high school, makes many of her skirts and play
clothes and works to keep her wardrobe "coordinated" so
that she has clothes and accessories which "go together."
Patricia Leek, sophomore at Southern Oregon college in
Ashland, said "clothes really play a minor role at SOC but
most girls try to have a well rounded wardrobe." She thought
the average wardrobe would have from 8 to 12 sweaters and
skirts each, several blouses, mostly of the drip-dry type, rain
clothes for campus, dressy flats for campus wear and a pair
of basic pumps for wear with dressy woolens and silks. The
new Frenchy shoes are popular at SOC, girls wear Ber
muda shorts around the dormitory, and perhaps leotards
when it is colder. For formal wear the co-eds tend to wear
cocktail length gowns instead of the floor length type "be
cause they are hard to get into the closets." She stressed that
closet space is limited. Pat, active in dramatics and a member
of Sigma Epsilon Pi honor society, attended the University of
Hawaii this summer.
Jane Bash, junior at Oregon State college, thinks a girl
needs a more versatile wardrcbe for college than for high
school, but not necesarily larger. She owns about 10 sweaters
and skirts each, dressy wools or silks for teas and dinner at
the Chi Omega sorority house where she lives, and said the
girls prefer cocktail type dresses for formal wear. They use
shorty coats or dress coats over these. "Borrowing is just
about necessary for most girls" says Jane. She stressed rain
clothes since winters at Corvallis are damp and her own
wardrobe has boots, a rain coat and a car coat which is
water repellant. i ' ' v
Many co-eds at OSC wear Bermuda socks lor warmth ana
Jane thinks leotards will grow in popularity. It is generally
conceded that most women students at universities have
larger and more formal wardrobes than those attending a
state college, she said.
m m m
Jane's younger sister, Judy, a junior at Medford High
school, says she doesn't mind wearing her sister s hand-
me-down clothes since it boosts her own wardrobe. She,
admitted to being a "lousy seamstress" and volunteered
the information that Margareta Aulin, Swedish exchange
student who lived with the Bash family last year, had
wondered why MHS girls thought they absolutely must
have enough clothes to wear a different outfit every day
in the week. The two of them had decided that it wasn't
really necessary.
Dewanda Winchell, student body, secretary at MHS
this year, believes that "really, clothes don't matter" and
says most high school girls here have a pretty good ward
robe by the time they are seniors because they coordinate
the pieces and add a few new articles each year. Dewanda
makes some of her own skirts in order to nit her clothing
costs. She is combining art and- mathematics successfully
during her high school academic career.
The Murray girls, Nyla and Marjo, snare a wardrobe
even though Nyla is in Medford High school and her sister
lives at Ashland during the SOC school year. "We swap
over the week ends," according to Nyla. Nyla admitted,
maybe a little reluctantly, that they probably owned 30
sweaters and 25 skirts, of all Types and added that some
of these dated back to junior high school days. Nyla makes
almost all of her skirts, as well as other clothing, and thinks
she save about half the cost of a ready-to-wear garment.
She learned to sew in 4-H and in home economics classes
in school. She is viceresident of the high school chapter
of Future Teachers of America and plans ' on attending
Oregon State college.
Romelle Fossen, who at 16 was valedictorian of Jack
sonville's 1958 graduating class, says she isn't taking many
clothes to the University of Oregon "because I visited the
dormitory and looked at the closets." Romelle is taking
four or five cotton dresses and only a few sweaters and
skirts; she plans to exchange the clothes when she comes
home on a visit in late October. She makes her Town skirts,
has two pairs of Bermuda shorts and two pairs of tapered
trousers for dormitory wear.
Romelle started to list her clubs and offices in high
school for the inquiring reporter and then grinned and said
"skip it-I belonged to everything but the letterman's club."
She plans to study mathematics and was amused at the fact
that she was the only female at a banquet for engineers
and prospective engineering students held in Medford not
long ago. She is' an enthusiastic 4-H member, has won
scholarships and contests and is looking forward with
enthusiasm to university life.
There weren't any campus clothes in the Don Loper
fashion show which Medford Junior Service league and
Burelson's store gave Friday night at the Country club. The
Loper clothes, modeled by league members, brought such
loudly approving noises from the men in the audience
that the voice of the commentator was drowned out. It was
the first time, that this noted west coast designer had ever
shown a collection in Oregon-but more of this later.-O.S.
HAPPY SOLUTION What to

When home-canned fruit
rises to the top of the jar,
leaving a space of clear liquid
underneath, the cause may be
overripe or crushed fruit.
Other causes are insufficient
ly cooked fruit, failure to pre
heat jars to drive out the air,
too heavy a syrup or too loose
a pack so that the jar con
tains too much liquid in pro
portion to the fruit.

Tips on Hair Rinse Comes From Expert
Denver- (UPD- If you use a
temporary hair rinse, fit the
shade to the natural hair
color.
Ellen Noreen Baum, direc
tor of the Noreen Beauty In
stitute, gives these tips for
using a rinse correctly:
A shade matching the na
tural hair color intensifies the
color, adds depth, luster and
evenness of color.
Blondes may add silvery
white highlights, golden
sheen, bronze or red accents.
Brown-haired women can use
amber, bronze, or copper
tones to give highlights. Bru
nettes take ebony and onyx
shades, but no golden rinses.
White and gray hair need a
rinse to overcome yellow or
other discoloration.
Chill canned pears for sev
eral hours in equal parts Cali
fornia Port wine and syrup
from the pears. Add a table
spoon fresh lemon juice and
serve with crisp walnut
cookies.
Don't throw away the wax
paper in which bread is
wrapped. It will do a slick
job of polishing a teakettle
or nickel on a stove.
