Most Women Prove Steady
In Secretary Positions
By GAY PAULEY
UPI Women's Editor ."
New York-flJPB-It's a wom
an's privilege to change her
mind-about her job. Yet. one
study of femi
nine stability
shows we are
not as fickle
as some bosses
would have
you believe.
This study
was made by
"Today's' Sec
retary," a mag-
Gay Pauley . azine, for the
business girl, which will pub
lish the results in its June
issue. More than half of its
continuing panel of 750 white
collar girls said that they had
been punching the same time
clock for at least five years.
Thirty per cent had changed
jobs only once during the five
year period. But the remain
ing 20 per cent had switched
positions more frequently and
gave reasons ranging from
"the boss barrier" to a candid
"I was fired." ;
Money Main Reason
, The wanderers listed lack
of advancement, unsatisfac
tory salary and unpleasant of
fice conditions among reasons
for straying. They were look
ing for great job opportunity
and more responsibility. ;
."I now work longer hours,
have less vacation and drive
30 miles a day," said one sec
retary. "But I realize I am an
important part of this organi
zation and am contributing to
its growth."
I just wasn't kept busy
enough at my former, job,"
said another. "I was afraid
that laziness would become a
habit."
And a third secretary said
she now has a boss "who re
spects my mind." Only nine
per cent of the panel listed

boss trouble as the reason for
job change.
"My boss is a dream ... I
love him," said one legal sec
retary who has held her job
well beyond the five years.
"Oh don't misunderstand,"
she added, "I love him as a
boss only. He's a married man
with seven children." .
Changes Mostly Successful
Almost all of the women
who had made j6b changes
recently said they had found
what they were looking for.
Few had left the old job un
der unpleasant circumstances;
most agreed their bosses were
happy, to have them find bet
ter positions.
However, a' few said, as did
one panelist, "we both cried."
Those who stayed gave a
variety of reasons from "en
joying the work" to "earning
a good salary." Incidentally,
more placed pleasure in the
work above the pay check in
reasons for staying. A few
confessed "lack of initiative
to change jobs"; others said
"relocating after you're 40 is
difficult." -
Not - air the . explanations
were orthodox. ' One ; panelist
said:
"My work is so complicated
and I have so many details in
my head, I couldn't leave
with' clear conscience."

New York - (CPD - "To-may-
toe", or "to-mah-toe"?
Say it either way - both are
correct. That' the word from
a brand-new (Webster's) dic
tionary. This marks the first
time a dictionary has not at
tempted to prescribe one cor
rect way of pronunciation. It
is based on actual word usage
by educated Americans.
Teen Age Girls
Say Slang Left
For Beatnik Use
By MARY PRIME
United Press International
New York, June 7 - (DPD -Adults
who try to talk the
teen-age lingo can relax. The
teens are leaving slang to the
beatniks.
That's the word from eight
teen-aged girls visiting New
York from across the United
States.
"Slang is dying. Kids only
talk that way in junior high
school or the movies," said
Kathie Lee Mary, 16, of Oak
land, Calif.
The most we say is 'sharp.
We're trying to act more
grown up and use bigger
words," she added.
Slang is almost non-exis
tent in Hawaii. "The nearest
we come to it is Hawaiian, I
guess," said Noelani For
sythe, 17, formerly of Hono
lulu, now of Chevy Chase,
Md. -
Some Remains
Anyone who wants to en
rich his vocabulary still has
few slang expressions o
draw from, however. For
example:
"Grubby"-everything bad.
"Potty"-also bad.
"If I want your opinion,
I'll rattle your cage."
Swinger"-anyone who is
someone.
Six of the girls are winners
m a iasmon council competi
tion sponsored by a national
magazine (Seventeen). They
are Jill Jacobs, 15, of Chi-
Miss Sacramento's Career
Aided by Beauty Contest
Sacramento, Calif. (DPD
When Patricia Williams was
an unknown secretarial stu
dent, she said she thought the
most important thing needed
to launch a singing career was
"a break."
When she was selected Miss
Sacramento and became the
first Negro girl ever to win a
preliminary for the Miss
America contest, she got that
break. .
Miss Williams, who is five
feet six inches tall and meas
ures 36-2414-37, is still be
wildered about, offers from
television.
The daughter of an elec
tronics technician at McClel
lan Air Force. Base, Pat did
not intend to start a crusade
when she entered the contest.
She just wanted to try for the
title "like any of the other
girls."
However, after it was all
over, Miss Williams said she
quainted. those in charge re-

New Representatives
Miss Forsytheand Sue
Bartlett, 18, of Fairbanks,
Alaska, the daughter of Sen.
E. L. Bartlett, were chosen to
represent the new states. .
Despite the demise of slang,
the teen-agers still cling to
fads in clothing. Girls today
wear white lipstick, white
pleated skirts, trench coats in
rain or shine, tennis shoes
(dirty), or sneakers without
socks. Hair is done in an "up
side-down pony tail" - a pony-
tail worn like a fan or pan
cake on top of the head.

keys, I.D. bracelets and : re

June Picnic Plans
To Be Made by Club
Plane for a July picnic in
Hawthorne park will be made
at a meeting of the Townsend
club Wednesday, June 10, at
11 a.m., at Carpenters hall.
The entertainment commit
tee will present a program for
the meeting. Four new mem
bers were reported for the
club last week. About 40
members attended the last
auxiliary meeting June 3.
A potluck luncheon is
served at 1$ noon for the
meetings and visitors are al
ways welcome, v
felt like "a Jackie Robinson
of beauty contests." ,
Great Honor
"It's a great honor and it
just goes to show that all we
have to do is try for these
things and they will come
our way," she said.
Miss Williams, a favorite
with the audience at the Miss
Sacramento contest from the
beginning, . broke up the
talent part of the show sing
ing a Lena Home-like version
of "Lover, Come Back to Me."
After the contest was over,
she admitted she hadn't prac
ticed that number at all. But
she discovered the night of
the contest that the orchestra
had no arrangement for the
song she had originally plan
ned to . present. So she was
forced to arrange a substitute.
Like many popular singers,
Pat admitted that "I can't read
lick of music."
To Study Music'
She intends to use a scholar
ship which she received as a
prize in the contest to attend
a music school and "learn
what I am singing.".
The 18-y e a r-old beauty
graduated from Grant High
school near here last year. She
was selected the school's bas
ketball queen, an honor which
also had been given to her
sister two years earlier.
Pat said she decided to
enter the contest as a lark.
She went into' her bathroom
and put on a bathing suit and
looked at herself in a mirror.
Then, she said, she asked
her family if she should try
for the title and they told her
she "had nothing to lose."
Surprised to Win
"But we never though I'd
win,' 'she said.
Pat's singing career began
in the high school choir. Later
she became a member of an
all-girl quartet and then be
came a soloist.
"Hove to entertain in front
of people," she said, explain
ing why she would like to
make a career of singing. "But
I, don't think I would .really
like the life,, of a singer." ,
Miss Williams was born in
Louisiana but her family
family moved to California
when she was five years old.
She says she has little mem
ory of her life in the South.
Shewill compete in June
for the Miss California title.

FACT ABOUT A PRICE TAG
Year-around air condition
ing systems today cost, about
one-third of what they did 12
years ago. In view of talk
about upward trends of living
costs, this seems hard to be
lieve. According to Harold
Massey, managing director of
the Gas Appliance Manufac
turers association, the cost of
air conditioning a new house
can be included in the mort
gage. It adds only a few dol
lars to the monthly payments
for round-the-calendar com
fort, and assures the added ad
vantage of increasing the re
sale value of the home.

treads on bare floors in his

The reason is two-fold: Mrs.
Peerce thinks bflre floors are
the most elegant of all when
properly maintained; second
they give her husband's voice
the true tonal quality he re
quires. '
