J She also Gay Pauley hopes she set some records straight before the craft carrying First Dep uty Premier Frol R. Kozlov departed for Moscow. Like the fact that Broadway has legitimate theater, not burl esque. Like the fact that her salary is enough for her and two other stewardesses to rent an entire house with spacious lawn and rosebushes. Miss Sedrinsky, employed by Pan American World Air ways on its Boeing 707 jet flights to Europe, was loaned by the airlines to the Russians for translating. Her job was to help explain to sightseers facts concerning the world's largest plane, while it was open to the public at Idle- wild Airport. Speaks Five Languages The stewardess, 30, New York born and Paris educated, got the job because she speaks five languages including Rus sian. The fact that she is pretty and' 'savvy" also probably helped. A lass with red-gold hair and green eyes, she mod eled for European couturiers before she joined Pan Ameri can in 1957. She said in an interview that her job on the TU-114 was supposed to be strictly language. But it wasn't long until she was bringing crew members maps of New York City to help them find their way around when off duty. The head engineer' got a tour ist guide to the U.SA. And sometimes, Miss Ged- rinsky sounded off. There was the incident shortly after the plane arrived in New York. A Russian embassy official from Washington was briefing the crew. Said Vicky - "He told them, "There are no theaters in New York. Only burles que." - "WeH" she said, "I told him I'd just finished inviting some of the crew members to join me in seeing a Broadway show. Then I vasked him if he'd ever heard of Eugene T See Our fabulous collection of SKIRTS & SWEATERS 214 E. Main, Ph. SP 2-71 69 1 Shop in . Air Conditioned Comfort O'Neill's 'Touch of a Poet I told him." Nice, Shy People " "You call that burlesque?', Miss Gedrinsky said she found the plane's crew "very nice, and very shy people. They would ask questions, but not too probing. "I would tell them some fact about life in our country and their anwsers .always was, "Yes, but in OUR country "It is impossible to describe the look on their faces when something surprised .them," she continued. "A couple of the crewmen came over for drink one day when I told them that two other girls and I could afford the house, there was that wide-eyed look. And then one asked how much was my salary. "I told him, and that almost eve j month there was some overtime. There was that look again." The crew included two stew ardesses, one of whom, Mor- gounova Nadejda, ' willingly posed with the Pan Am girl for pictures aboard the craft. Miss Nadejda said that the plane usually carried five stewardess, but the full com plement was not necessary on this trip because the party was small. Sightseers poured through the plane at the rate of 3,000 to 8,000 a day. What they saw was a craft longer than three freight cars, but looking on the inside like a passenger train. A separate dining area with tables looked like a train diner; sleeping compartments were divided much . as they are or a train. The only sections kept off- limit to tourists were the cock pit and for some unexplained reason the galley. The galley is on the lower deck as.d food is brought to the passenger section by elevator. Little Old-Fashioned To me, the interior done in deep red carpet Tvith medium blue or patterned blue and beige upholstery was a little old-fashioned less colorful than interiors of most U. S. craft. Sightseers could sign a guest book and add comments, if they wished. To one, the ship was "a big monster." To anoth er "fahtabulous." To still another full of national pride it "is no better than the 707." One teen-ager wrote, "man, it's cool." Miss Gedrinsky said that even in uniform she often was mistaken for a member of the Russian crew. One brad-bed-decked Russian, whose ident ity she never learned, greet ed her with, "How do you like the states." "In my best English, I told him," she said. A New York tourist took one look at her model's figure and said, "Well: We heard you all were fat."

Published by the University of Washington Press in coop eration with the Crater Lake Natural History association, the field guide is the work of the much - traveled writing team of Grant and Wenonah Sharpe. Preparation was be gun in the summer of 1958, while University of Michigan forestry professor Grant Sharpe worked as a naturalist in Oregon s spectacular park.

Headers are also given a brief explanation of the park's natural features: the volcanic origins of brilliant-blue Crater Lake, America's deepest lake, surrounded by cliffs- to 2,t)00 feet high, and the park's four vegetation "life zones," en countered as different eleva tions are reached. The Sharpes have spent summers in four American na tional parks and produced as many guidebooks. ' Previous excursions have resulted in "101 Wildflowers of Mt.

The em phasis will be on patterned and two-toned furs. Look for berets in white mink tail, belts of elongated leopard and ja guar, leopard ascots, fox trimmed jackets, and two toned mink shawls, combin ing white and ranch pelts. Mittens come in civet-patterned dyed rabbit. Muffs are back in mink, fox and leo pard. One leopard muff doubles as a shoulder bag. Other bags come in sleek hair seal in gold, gray and green. Look for an increase m "matching" shoes for fall - fabric footwear dyed in a solid shade to coordinate with a costume or made of the same fabric as the costume, This latter matching is pos sible when a woman is lucky enough to get an extra swatch of material and is near a shoe maker who will custom-make the footwear for her. ' Bright shoes give a colorful lift to the summer wardrobe They come in red canvas tie styles, orange, olive and tur quoise striped wedgies, and green, tangerine or lilac straw flats. ,- If your feet hurt on hot summer days, it may be due to too-short stockings. One hosiery manufacturer says most women buy stockings a half size too short. Seamless styles tend to pull taut, so get a half size larger than usual, he said. Flowers aren't the only things that make perfume sweet. The modern perfumer has about 1,500 products to choose from, and sometimes uses hundreds in one scent. Perfumes are extracted from wood, bark, gum, root, kit chen herbs, seeds, nuts, grass, and animals. The beaver, civet, sperm whale, and male musk deer are chief blenders. - Modern sunglasses can be traced centuries back. Cleo patra held emeralds to her eyes to guard them against the glare of Egyptian sun. Eskimos protected their eyes with slotted spectacles made of whalebone. .

Half cover with Port wine or a fruit juice such as orange or pineapple-grapefruit. Refrigerate at least overnight before using as a simple compote, ice cream topping pr in combination with other fruits.
