Calls on Family
Tokyo -OD- Michiko Sho

whose engagement to Crown
Prince Akihito is the talk of
Japan, chatted over tea and
cakes today with three im

parents, flourmill president
Hidesaburo Shoda and his
wife Fumi.
Wherever she went, small
crowds of Japanese gathered,
anxious to get a glimpse of
the girl who broke 26 cen
turies of tradition Thursday
when she was named Akihi
to's fiancee and the probable
future empress of Japan.
The crowds, however, were
.nothing like they were Fri
day, when an estimated 8,000
teenagers mobbed her auto as
it left the crown prince's pal

House of Dior
Introduces New
Last for Shoes
United Press International
Christian Dior has come out
with a new shoe last-Mandolin.
It is cut low and held to
the foot by a narrow band of
fabric. Heels are high, curved
or semi-curved.
Perk up a rainy-day ward
robe with idea .from Paris. A
hat, scarf and umbrella sheaf
in bright velvet. '
The white-tie-and-tails set
gets a formal "soft" hat. It's a
silk-napped beaver felt top
per, which is lighter than the
traditional black silk, soft and
resilient, with a crown that
springs back into 'shape. It is
about 5 inches tall.
No longer does a woman
need to be tall and slim to
look elegant in furs. This
year, there's a fur coat for
every figure-chemise for slim
lines, trapeze for fullness, and
the big,wide-cut coat with low
armholes for women who can
carry bulk.
A new look in hair bows
lacquered bows which match
locks and dress. The bows
may be worn on top of the
head, in pairs at the sides, or
at the back. They come at
tached to a barette or head
band. -
Leather is getting fancier.
It has been combined with
furs and fine fabrics, and
now comes with embroidery.
Designer Vincent Danzi per
fected a technique to put em
broidery right on the leather,
instead of as an applique. One
example is an African kidskin
coat in taupe with big floral
motifs.
Women who like the com
fort of tights and the control
of a girdle now can get both
in one product-tights with a
built-in panty girdle. Wisp
Tights come in royal blue, red,
black and beige, with a solid
or shadow-striped girdle and
solid color legs. Available in
small, medium and large.

New 1959 Cliff Dwelling
Has Everything Different
By PATRICIA McCORMACK
United Press International
New York -UPB The 1959
model in cliff dwellings, New
York style, is three blocks
long, two apartments wide
and 16 stories high.
Such a sun-drenched spec
tacle is the first of three 2,-004-family
units to sprout
from the rubble of nine
dreary blocks south of histor
ic Washington Square in Man
hattan. , The off-beat apartment
building has set tongues wag
ging, but most conversation
about the new Washington
Square Village concerns what
will be between the buildings
- four acres of wide open
space.
That is a thing hard to be
lieve in a city where the
scarcity of land made it neces
sary to wedge buildings to
gether like so many cigarettes
in a pack.
Paul Lester Wiener, con
sultant designer and site-planner
for the $75 million proj
ect, said the completed vil
lage will prove that city liv
ing can be freed from the
wedged-look.
Has Privacy. Space
The dream: Privacy and
space, plus a touch of subur
bia on the earthy part be
tween buildings in a metro
polis where land is about as
valuable as solid gold.
Wiener says the buildings,
each as long as two football
fields, will make the dream
come true. Two streets run
through thev property, but
these didn't stop planners.
The long, lean storied struc
tures will stretch across both
streets.
Promenades, parklets and
playgrounds will rise between
the buildings. There will be
shops, as in suburbia.
"But nowhere," said Wien
er, "will there be the city-mass-of-stone
look."
. Outside, the longest apart
ment building in the nation is
decked in different colors to
overcome , a bowling alley
look. Some sections are grey
from top to bottom; others,
white, yellow, red.
Wiener, a graduate of the
Royal Academy of Vienna,
has designed structures
around the world. He was co
architect of the presidential
palace in Havana, Cuba. His
work has won awards in
France, Brazil, Ecuador and
Guatemala.
He also was coorchitect for
the new United Nations Pavil
ion for the peaceful use 'of at
omic energy, Zurich, Switzer
land. New Idea
Washington Square Village,
the site planner said, is an
"entirely new idea" that al
most any urban renewal plan
can incorporate - to a great
er or lesser extent, depending
on need.
Original suggestions for the
village site called for nine to
12 separate buildings. "But,"
Wiener said, "there wouldn't
have been much of the wide
open spaces."
The apartments, ranging
from two and a half to six
rooms, are air conditioned.
Most have terraces.
Wiener, who looks like a
40-ish country squire, even in
his office, believes that the
Washington Square concept
of relaxed and airy city living
long has been needed.
The first building is more
than three-quarters rented.
But workmen still are putting
the finishing touches on many
apartments.
Rents High
Rents range from $137 for
the two and one-half unit to
$398 for the best five-roomer,
per month not exactly "av
erage income" housing.

to sprinkle on top.
miacue ciass, mere are six-
room and larger pent houses,
and higher rents. v
Under the Village, there
are two-layered parking gar
ages. Sunken gardens with
exotic plants turn lobbies in
to show places.
Each building will have its
own staff of doormen and uni
formed attendants. Tenants
can use inter-house phones
and a lobby announcing ser
vice, plus telephones in eleva
tors. This new concept " of city
living is just five minutes
from Wall Street and Times
Square - for those who can
afford it.

British Critics
Praise Play on
Negro Problem
London-(UPD-The first play
on the British stage in which
a white girl is kissed by a
Negro man was hailed by
critics today for its "honesty
and dignity."
The - play, "Hot Summer
Night" by British playwright
Ted Willis, opened at the
West End New Theater Wed
nesday night. Its theme of
colored boy and white girl
falling in love struck home
to many Britons who still
are disturbed by race riots
in London's Notting Hill dis
trict less than three months
ago.
Andres Melly played the
girl and Jamaican Lloyd Rick
ord the boy.
London's morning newspa
pers applauded the play and
called the history-making kiss
a natural development in the
plot.
"It's a play with something
to say," Daily Express critic
Emile Littler said. "It's not
propaganda. Its moral is the
need for tolerance."
Derek Richards of the tab
loid Daily Mirror said Reck
ord "brings dignity to the
part of the colored boy."
The" News Chronicle's Allan
Dent said in a review beaded
"an honest play of black and
white" congratulated author
Willis for writing "with com
passion and not with the
youthful snarl that is the
present fashion."
Cecil Wilson wrote in the
Daily Mail "It happened at
the New Theater, London,
last night just as it happened
not so long ago, in real life,
at Nottingham and Notting
Hill. The color bar struck
home in Britain."

Seed Topping
Stir instant minced onion,
sesame seeds, and bread
crumbs with a little melted
butter. Toast until golden
brown; cool and store in an
airtight container. Enjoy
these delicious onion-crumbs
sprinkled over holiday vege
tables, crisp green salads, on
hot soups or casserole dishes.
Holiday Dip -
Mashed avocado is one of
the most popular of all cock
tail dips. A favorite is season
ed with crumbled cooked ba
con, instant minced onion, le
mon juice and salt. Serve with
crackers and potato chips.
Serve with crackers and po
tato chips. For a fancy party
give it a little different twist
by using large, cooked shrimp
for the "dippers" inplace of
crackers or chips.

with that," said Miss Mick, a

Spent Week Training
She and Miss Sperbeck, a
vivacious blonde from Los An

the plane's new features and
to handle equipment.
New are a push-button kit
chen and buffet serving cart
from which passengers can
help themselves.
Flight time is much shorter
than on present piston-powered
aircraft, so stewardesses
must work faster, The re-de
signed kitchens make the
task easier, cut time-consuming
steps, eliminate stooping
and usual cooking methods.
Even coffee is brewed push
button fashion in three min

After training, the girls

apiece on the journey and
set off from Burbank, Calif.,
