Indians and working with them are Presbyterian, Methodist, Episcopalian and Salvation Army groups. Educational facilities are excellent, according to the speaker. A college is located at Fairbanks and one is to be. built at Anchorage. Travel is either by boat or plane for travel by car is not possible due to the rugged and narrow roads or the complete absence of roads. The Lutheran church is the oldest : established church in Alaska, stated the Rev. Mr. Coovert, and strangely enough, the Russians donated the land upon which the church stands. The speaker advised against going to Alaska for, he stated, there are no jobs and prices are very high on all commodities. Perhaps no place has more beautiful scenery than has Alaska, which he and Mrs. Coovert explained in the showing of some interesting slides of that country.

Riverside Doctor Says Fashion Plates Are Bored or Boring Women By PATRICIA McCORMACK United Press International New York (LTD A medical historian male has come up with possibly fightin' and frightening words about fashion. Dr. - F el i x Marti Ibanez does so fearlessly. Ever since Eve reached for something more stylish than a fig leaf, it has been a doctor's prerog ative to ponder fashion in the interest of physical and mental health. Hippocrates author of the oath doctors take s c 0 1 d e d f emmes of his time for squeez ing their rib cages with waist bands. Claimed respiration suffered. Bored and Boring Of fashions, in general, Dr. Marti-Ibanez, head of the His tory of Medicine Department at New York Medical college, says: The woman who blindly adopts every fashion does so because fashion bolsters a weak individuality. Fashion plates usually are bored and boring females. The fashion plate makes fashion a hard and constant slave, trotting from place to place so that men and more Methodist Wo Against Capita Medford delegates report that a recommendation that capital punishment be taken from the statute books of Oregon was approved by the executive committee of the Woman's Society of Christian Service, Oregon Conference of the Methodist church,v at the fall meeting in Forest Grove, September 26. Mrs. C. R. Adamson, Mrs. George Lawless and Mrs. O. P. Taylor attended from Medford. The recommendation a s presented ' by ' Mrs. Wayne Stauffer, Eugene, sercretary of Christian social relations, reads: "Whereas we stand for the application of the redemp tive principle of Christian love to the treatment of of fenders against the law, we, the members of the executive committee of the Woman's Society of Christian .

Among points made by the medical historian in a medical publication, MD, is this -one that males might file for fu ture reference: Historically, whenever woman has dominated, she has abbreviated her apparel, stripping off everything that might hinder action. Nothing New The medical historian finds nothing really new about the trapeze. An important wom an called "Mistress of Ani mals" wore such a thing in 1000 B.C. A statue of her in the Paris Lourye proves.it. If recent interest in the tra peze is a sign fashion is re gressing, a garment called the minoan should be the rage by 2800 A.D. And -if it is, the common cold will have a field day. - - For the minoan, popular in 1800 B.C., featured , the re verse of the bare back. The way Dr. Marti-Ibanez looks at fashion, the whole complex subject is the result of social and sexual competi tion.

Social Season Opens With Hula -Hoops By FREDERICK M. WINSHIP United Press International New York-flJPD-Internation- al society hula-hopped it up at the Astor Tuesday night to open what promises to be" the most lavish social season since World War II. Deluxe red, yellow and blue hoops costing $1.75 swiveled around the hips of 1,000 social ites, many of them multi-mil lionaires, in the wackiest post midnight scene in the history of the venerable Astor Hotel on Times Square. It was the first of the balls, debuts, and charity events that will put an estimated 10 million dol lars in circulation in the next j eight months. . , , . j The hoops were passed out to Rockefellers, , Whitneys, Chryslers, Dukes, Mellons, Du Ponts and Biddies at the climax of the Astor Ball, an event marking the reopening of the 54-year-old hotel s ball room to the New York car riage ' trade after years of social oblivion due to its West Side location. Almost every one except Elsa Maxwell gave the hoop the whirl. "I won't make an exhibition of myself," said Elsa as she slipped out early for an ap pearance on a television show. The international set, in cluding Generalissimo Fran cisco Franco's daughter, Mar ques de Villaverde, handled the hoops timidly at first. Then Eleanor Whitney, di vorced wife of Cornelius Van- derbilt .Whitney, broke , the ice by lassoing Aly Khan in her hoop for a whirl around the ballroom. ; j Merle Oberon, Jane Pick ens, Carol Bruce, .Magda Ga bor and Gypsy Rose Lee fol lowed suit and it soou looked like a' school playground at recess. Side-line dowagers riuch as Mrs. Wendell Wilkie and the Duchess of Talleyrand carried off hoops by the half-dozen-f or their grandchildren, they said.- The hoops looked incongruous - over their dia-mond-braceleted arms. The ball was the idea of former White Russian Prince Serge Obolensky, who had the good fortune to marry an Astor heiress and become a hotel executive in the recent ly organized Zeckendorf hotel chain. It netted $25,000 for the New York Herald Tribune Fresh Air Fund for under privileged children.
