"Cranberry-wise, no good." I suppose he has something there. The blessing of another year of peace and a hint of a thaw in the cold war in it self should be enough.

Leather, Fur Fashionable For Winter United Press International Sweet 16 no longer is the age when a girl first puts on high heels, reports the Shoe Fashion Service. Today, the average teen-aged girl starts wearing shoes with at least two-inch heels between the ages of 14 and 15. In some areas, 12-year-old girls wear high heels for parties and school dances. Leather and fur show up as team mates in both dressy and casual coats and. jackets. Among the most popular furs are Canadian lynx, civet cat, raccoon, fox, Norwegian blue fox, mink, leopard and bea ver. They are shown with smooth, crushed and sueded leathers. In lower - priced brackets, wool shearling is used for lining waist-length jackets or car coats with brushed leather exteriors. ' Leather evening coats are fancier than ever this year. They come with jewels and beaded embroidery, rich ve lour linings, and luxurious shawl collars. Colors include white, black, blue, gold and pink. New lined capeskin and kid gloves look as trim as unlined gloves. They come in shortie and wrist lengths. Slip-on styles have shirred, elasticized leather at the wrist to give a snug fit. There's a difference to the towering hats shown this fall. In past seasons, the crowns were tapered at the top, but the newest versions widen. Crowns also are more supple and ' crushable., without the former blocked look. The lean and hungry look in men's wear rates A on the campus, reports a manufac turer who keeps tabs on the market and sales. Slacks are tight fitting, with tapered legs and pleatless styling. They ride low on the hips to emphasize leanness. 4 One ounce of the average unsweetened dry breakfast cereal contains about 104 cal like, here goes with one can- takerous female's list of things for which she is NOT thankful this year: The cost of living that keeps climbing.

Miss Josephine Kirtley, one of the club's charter members, cut the birthday cake, which was a German-chocolate cake baked and decorated by R.Trs. Bonnie Wilson. Speaker was H. F. Edwards, assistant manager of Weis field's store. Mr. Edwards told about "Meals for Mil lions," a non-profit founda tion for the prevention of star vation. During the depression, Clifford E. Clinton, Los An geles restauranteur, financed research to find an inexpens ive, nutritious food. Dr. Hen ry Borsook of the California Institute of 'Technology de veloped "Multi-Purpose Food" using soy beans. From this be ginning came the Meals fof Millions Foundation which has supplied food for 110 na tions thus far. Multi-purpose food is first presented as a gift to a coun try, then the recipient is told how it can be made locally using native products, the speaker said. Research is how in progress to develop and produce new unusual protein materials for food in 14 na tions. In India throughout the state of Madras alone 500,000 children are being fed multi purpose food through school lunch programs. , - Multi-purpose food violates no J religious dietary taboos and is non-perishable, an ideal food for starving mil lions. "Three cents buys a meal to provide relief for the world's greatest problem, hunger," Mr. Edwards stress ed Mrs. Florence Bolton was appointed to collect Zonta's gifts each month for the "Meals for Millions" pro gram. It will be designated for Father Pere's work among the European refugees. The annual Christmas meet ing will be held December 10 at 7 p.m. at the home of Mrs. Jacque Lennox. Gifts will be brought and wrapped for the Zonta "Christmas family." Turkey "Cut-Up" Advice Given Washington - (UPD - Want to be a first-rate cut-up at the Thanksgiving table? H e r e's how, courtesy of Henry L. Shrader, an Agriculture De partment poultry expert, who can carve a family-size turkey in two minutes. Separate the leg first and, unless you have a drumstick fancier, carve the meat off parallel to the bone. Slice the breast meat cross wise with a slightly sawing motion, carving only as you serve. The wing is tricky because it joins the body at a differ ent angle. "Discourage all. in terest in it and just leave it lay," said,Shrader. Here are tips to help the carver: -Don't give him a wobbly bird. If the turkey' tilts, put a wedge of apple or carrot un der it to hold it in place. -Too much garnish on the turkey platter can mean splat ters and spills, so decorate sparingly. -Be sure long-stemmed gob lets and table decorations are well out of the carver's elbow range.

' To Each His Own Wax Chicago -(UPD- Using wood floor wax for asphalt, vinyl or rubber tile floors can be harmful. Here's why: The easy-spreading wax products usually contain a solvent, which is also the cleaning agent. This solvent can dam age asphalt, vinyl and rubber tiles.; On the other hand, the wa ter in waxes recommended for, tiled floors will eventu ally spoil fine finishes on hardwood floors.

Oregon United Nations association, passed a resolution at a meet ing Sunday evening urging the United States government to continue the ban on nuclear testing permanently. At 'a supper meeting in ob servance of World Fellowship day, the chapter studied the British and Soviet disarma ment proposals from material prepared by the Committee for World Development and World Disarmament and then passed the resolution. ' The crux of the question of disarmament was said to be the spread of nuclear arma ments and the fallout due to weapons tests to date. "Where as large and small nations alike have expressed their fear of death at any moment due to intentional or uninten tional atomic warfare, and as the United States was the first in the use of atomic weapons, we ought not to de lay in assuring the rest of the world that we are willing to begin to free ourselves from our unwise dependence on these weapons in our military policy, whether or not they are used against us," the reso lution read in. part. Using the World Disarma ment committee's material, the chapter learned that the Soviet and British plans call for ceasing the use of fission able material to make weap ons, stopping the manufac ture of nuclear weapons, de struction of all types of nu clear rocket weapons, prohibi tion of production and storing ing all means of chemical and bacteriological warfare and finally, international supervis ion of all existing military stocks of fissionable material whether fabricated into weap ons or not, and transfer to non-weapons use. It was brought out that "to tal universal enforceable dis armament is the challenge presented by the proposals of Premier Khrushchev and Sel wyn Lloyd at the United Na tions September 17-18." The Soviet premier proposed dis armament in four years, de clared that Russia would per mit inspection and supervis ion and suggested that an in ternational control body be set up which may permit aerial observation and air photogra phy over the territories in volved. The British plan was said to be more carefully reasoned and to propose a step by step method of reaching the same goal. "It is hoped that Mr. Lloyd spoke for the United States and the Western pow ers" it was said during Sun day's meeting. ' It was brought out that to date no comparable proposal has been made by the United States and that most former studies have been on the limi 1016 N.

Chapter tation of arms which is a very different idea. George F. Kennan, former ambassador to England, was quoted as saying "This whole present use of mass destruc tion weapons does not draw a line between armed forces and the civilian population of a hostile country. Prior to World War I, due to the rules of warfare, an effort was made to take action only against those who had weap ons in their hands and offered resistance. Present methods can permit whole peoples to be punished as a means of blackmail against govern ments." The control of armament by an international control or ganization within the United Nations was discussed, and some expressed the belief that all nations should-be "requir ed" not "permitted" to join the UN. Thus China would be in on the nuclear bans and disarmament negotiations and be subject to its standards and controls. That the United Nations po lice force should be recruited now from all nations to be the only military force to be used in maintaining order and pre vent surprise attack was an other idea expressed during the discussion. Outer space should be explored with the idea of promoting peace, and not war, it was said. A statement by Premier Khrushchev was quoted to the effect that "The annual mili tary expenditures of all states today is approximately $100 billion. Of this the Soviets spend $25 billion and the United States $45 billion, which adds up to $70 billion, more than two-thirds of the total world arms budget. Mon ey spent over the last decade for military needs would be enough to build over 150 mil lion homes; we should also consider the millions of peo ple taken directly away from fruitful labors." President Eisenhower has also expressed concern over the strain on the economy of the armaments expenditures, it was said. The group also passed a motion asking the American United Nations association to urge the United States govern ment to set up machinery im mediately for preparing a plan to convert to peacetime economy. The local UN group plans to communicate its ideas and decisions to local political groups and to senators and representatives as well as to President Eisenhower and Sec retary of State Herter. Fur ther study is planned and it is announced that copies of the British and Soviet dis armament proposals are avail able to organizations or indi viduals for study. TUStf lYtTWf $ BIT !
