Here's dramatic proof that repeated quality dry
cleanings do not alter look and feel of newness
Now yoa can be sure your family's clothes are safe!
Have us dry clean them like these two suits featured
recently in national magazines. You'll find that not
only does regular Sanitone Dry Cleaning cause no
perceptible wear, but never before did you see those
clothes quite so clean nor quite so perfectly pressed.
They retain both the look and feel of newness
through cleaning after cleaning, too! Try us and see!

and sprays of Oregon grape
by Mrs. Elwood Hussey and
Irene McCasland..
An easy way to cook vege
tables at barbecuse is in alum
inum foil. Place individual
servings of canned or frozen
vegetables on squares of foil.
Slices of zucchini, tomato or
onion rings also may be used.
Add butter, salt and desired
seasoning, seal the foil with a
double fold, and place the
packets on top of the grill or
in the coals. Cook about 10
minutes.
interviewer from the Nation
al Association of Home Build
ers through her home to an
swer questions on . howshe
has met the problem. .. .
She believes one reason the
rooms look larger han they
really " are is that she has
used a single "color for the
main features of each. - The
walls and ceiling of her. nar
row living room are soft green
and they have no contrasting
trim -which would, tend-to
make the room look smaller.
Wall-to-wall carpeting and
draperies carry out the same
green tone, as does the open
grillwork of the stairway.
Furniture Scaled .
Mrs. Mundt selected furni
ture scaled down to the pro
portions of the room. She
stored her davenport and got
a loveseat because "it takes
up two and one-half feet less
of space." 'T ve found that
usually no more than two per
sons want to sit on a daven
port at the same time, any
way," she said, "and two can
sit quite comfortably , on a
loveseat."
To further conserve space,
she uses small side tables in
stead of a coffiee table.
When she has friends in to
dine, she doesn't "try any
thing but a buffet supper."
She finds that eight can be
seated comfortably for such a
party. But for a "stand-up"
affair, she has had as many
as 20 1 in the house.
Usually for an event of that
size, she and a." friend, in a
house two doors away, join
forces. They try to keep the
guests divided evenly in the
two houses or sometimes one
will serve the main meal and
the other, the dessert.
Before a party, Mrs. Mundt
put out of sight small things
she can get along without,
such as magazine racks.
Corners Utilized
The house, while small, is
built to utilize every , nook
and corner. There is storage
space for luggage under the
stairway, a built-in corner
cupboard in the dinette end
of the living room, and shal
low shelves filling an entire
wall of the kitchen.
- The senator's - wife has
chosen and arranged the furn
ishings of the two bedrooms
with similar skill to make a
little space go far. In a "tur
quoise" room, three chests of
drawers and a vanity, all or
iginally linpainted, form an
unbroken line along one end
of the room, which has an un
cluttered look.
Four chests are arranged
in the same manner in the
other room, which is done in a
pleasing cocoa shade. Night
tables in each room provide
additional drawer space. Each
table has drawers to the floor.
Mrs. Mundt has lived in
apartments with larger rooms
but she said the house 'is so
compact she actually has more
utility space in its rooms. ' -
The L-shaped 1 court looks
out to a small, terraced flow
er garden where the closely
knit group of families occa-
sionallygathers for a barbe
cue.

Navy Wants Midshipmen
To Be Practically Perfect
By PATRICIA McCORMACK
United IJress International
New York (LTD If a gal's
heartskips a beat when a
Navy midshipman walks by,
it's not only the uniform. It's
also the fellow wearing it. By
Navy -rules he's got V he at
least passably good looking. "
r "Extreme ugliness," accord
ing to an official 7,000-word
treaties on-physical require
ment for midshipmen, is a
"disqualifying defect."
It is among hundreds of dis
qualifying physical defects
spelled out in a booklet the
Navy is passing out to young
men who might like to try for
one of the 1,800 midshipman
appointments' effective next
fall.
Physicai requirements, as
stated, "are inflexible and the
slightest deviation .will be
cause for rejection."
Rigid Physical -
Before the candidate can
take the rigid physical, he
must sail through a college
aptitude test. Almost 30 per
cent who ' passed the mental
test in recent years have sub
sequently been ' rejected for
physical defects.
"Extreme ugliness" is list
ed under Sub-Section One,
Section J, in a 10-page appen
dix in the Navy's informa
tional booklet.
Apparently it is up to the
doctor to arrive at the judg
ment on his own, for the de
fect isn't defined."
Boys with knock-knees are
flunked if the condition
"makes their 'gait clumsy or
ungainly." Of bow-legs, the
Navy says: - '
"A cause for rejection if so
marked as to produce notice
able deformity when the ap
plicant is dressed."
Ingrown toe-nails, boat-like
feet, unsightly spaces between
the teeth and obscene,' offen
sive or indecent tattooing are
other "disqualifying" defects
that can sink a candidate. ,. .
Must Be Single
. To remain physically . per
fect 'during ' the four -year
training course, candidates
who are accepted must prom
ise to avoid marriage.
-The perfectly perfect, speci
mens who aTe picked get the
title of midshipman in Ihe
regular Navy reserve officers
training corps. They .are. as
sign to a college and the Navy
pays tuition, other fees and. a
retainer of $50 a month.
The midshipman is. free to
major in a field of his choice
unless that field happens to
be dramatics, hotel adminis
tration, theology real "estate
and a few . other - specialties
the Navy doesn't consider
seaworthy. . -
