San Francisco (UPD - A vac cine against measles made from the virus that causes dis temper in dogs apparently has protected most of a group of children for three years. Dr. John M. Adams, in a re port to the American Acad emy of Pediatrics, said that in one experiment, 165 children in a California State Mental Hospital were vaccinated, When an epidemic of measles broke out, only three of the vaccinated children developed measles. Instead of a salad for din ner, vary the menu pattern with fruit kebabs. Skewer thick banana slices, canned cling peach halves drained and cut in two, and thick or ange slices. Sprinkle with lemon juice and sugar, broil about 5 minutes. Serve hot to accompany meats. Use floor cleaning wax on youngsters' white or colored kid or calf shoes before add ing more polish.

William Holden Going To Europe Hollywood -(UPD-Actor Wil liam Holden and his family will spend the next three years living in Europe where the film star has a full sched ule of motion picture assign ments waiting. Holden, before leaving by jet for Switzerland Saturday with his wife, Brenda Mar shall, and their sons, Wes, 15, and Scott, 13, denied then European residence had any thing to do with avoiding U.S. income taxes.

He added he has four films planned in Europe for the next three years and that commuting between the U.S. and Europe would be impractical.

Using print containers as sewing fabric will enable you to make sev eral outfits at little cost. And because manufacturers re member the woman who sews when they select designs and colors, your 1959-style "sack" dresses will be fashionable as well as economical. This year's bag fabrics in clude brilliant, one - dimen sional floral prints in lush, intense shades of coral, ge ranium, and turquoise, tailor ed stripes, crisp, fresh checks, impressionistic water - color prints, and many other strik ing patterns. From the array of designs available, you can stitch up anything from a smart shirtwaist dress to a sophisticated party frock. The possibilities are limited only by time, energy, and imag ination. Plain containers provide useful sewing fabric, too. Bags made from osnaburg, a loosely-woven fabric .that's first cousin to hopsacking, are especially appropriate for shorts, pedal pushers, and oth er sportswear. This material also is effective when com bined with a harmonizing print-in a dress-and-redingote or shirt-and-shorts ensemble, for example. In some locali ties, feed is being packaged in gold, burgandy, and green dyed osnaburg as well as in the more widely-used beige tones. Small cambric or muslin sacks are handy for sewing blouses, shirts, petticoats, and many other garments. Or use several dyed in luscious ice cream shades of strawberry pink, lemon yellow, or mint green for children's dresses. It's simple to prepare a bag for sewing. Just turn it inside out. and unravel the chain - stitched seam. Then soak it in warm, soapy water to remove the brand label. A 100-pound feed or flour sack will provide about yard and a third of fabric, Vividly illustrating the fashion possibilities of cotton bags are new loan wardrobes Holifield Attending National Academy Robert W.
