One-Stop Shopping Brings Supermarket Expansion By PATRICIA WIGGINS United Press International - Washington -UPD- Who's behind the stepped-up invasion of supermarkets by such non-food items as nylons, books, beauty aids and grass seed? You are. According to food executives who gathered here recently for the annual meeting of the National Association of Food Chains, the woman shopper has demanded - and won - one- stop shopping trips in the family car. The result has been the blossoming of drug, depart ment and hardware store fa miliars in growing profusion among the groceries. One executive said that his stores in northern New Jersey have even begun 'issuing money orders at their check out counters so that women can pay the light and gas bills at the market. One firm -in California re portedly" is thinking of adding swimming pool supplies to their already large non-food displays. As one executive, from a group of Kansas City, Mo., stores put it: "Everything we 5-qt. Electric 2'i-qt. Dutch Oven Automatic and French Corn Popper Fryer $4.88 $19.95 Plenty FREE Parking! HIGHEST QUALITY! LOWEST PRICES! HOMfWAIffSf Phone SP 2-5201 INFANTS' REDUCED FROM $3.88 High and Low Shoes All Sixes and Colors $1.88 to $2.49 3" to 5" OPEN TILL t P.M. MONDAY t FRIDAY do, we do to please the women." At his food stores, inciden tally, parking spaces are wider "because women like them larger than men." And, because women like pink, all the stores are in pink and white. Other store executives ad mitted to widening aisles and providing upholstered benches and other comforts for the women shopper. The alleged non-food de mands by the feminine shop pers are reportedly just an extension of their long and constant demand for variety and service on grocery items. For example, a modern su permarket's dairy department shown during the associa tion's meeting displayed 227 brands of cheeses and cheese products A sauce and dressing 'de partment boasted 19 different kinds of vinegar items. And milk is no longer just milk, but is whole, skimmed, ho mogenized, fortified or what have you in a variety of sizes and cases. While claiming that women shoppers have caused the ex pansion in products handled at big chain stores, the execu tives were the first to admit that it has meant good busi ness for them. Big stores mean big money. Supermarkets, new and old, averaged $19,500 a week in business last year. Most new stores today are being built to handle close to $30,000-a week. k L Speaker Advises Daily Planning Of Work Load Homemakers can have time for the things they enjoy most, according to a discus sion on "Living Within 24 Hours" led by Mrs. Randall Kay for the Willow Springs Home Extension unit: . She said, "The key is in your hands. It is much easier to travel a well-planned route; and so it is with your work." Only so much can be done each day, but women should know what this is and fulfill a daily quota, she explained. People often find hard work is nothing more than an accumulation of easy jobs they, didn't do when they should have," Mrs. Kay de clared. The topic has been present ed by leaders in all the coun try's extension units this month. Willow Springs members will meet December 8 at the home of Mrs. Kay on Old Pa cific highway, Central Point. The lesson on "Christmas ideas to make" will be given by Mrs. B. M. Thumle'r." An exchange of handmade gifts is planned. California Prefers Blondei New York (UPD California is the top market for color hair rinse, reports Ellen No reen Baum, creator of hair rinses. 1 , Metropolitan New York also is a top market, but the rest of New York state is conser vative, Mrs. Baum said.

Its walls and most of its furnishings are in blue or rose. These are the costume colors for which Mrs. Craig was noted on Capitol Hill long before she became a TV per sonality. Her home is trim and pretty, with crisp white or gandy curtains at the windows and, coupled with all the mod ern amenities, the suggestion of a Victorian air. Each room has a radio for handy tuning in on the latest news. Mrs. Craig, a grandmother and mighty proud of it, does not admit to having a living room. "I call this a parlor," she explained as she sat back on a blue sofa in her blue papered front room. She has four rocking . chairs in the parlor. "My friends laugh at me for having rocking chairs," Mrs. Craig told the National Association of Home Builders, "but I notice they all like to sit in the rocking chairs." Her red brick house, 100 years old, has gone through various modernizations, in cluding some to provide an abundance of storage space. The house is filled with pretty things she has picked up on news-hunting travels around the world. Gives Dinners Mrs. Craig is noted for her small, intimate dinner parties at which there is usually a guest of honor who is in the news and some of her news gathering friends. She never has more than 12 at her din ing room table and she prefers 10 but thinks eight "is best of all." Conversation at her table is apt to turn into a frank and spirited political discussion, as when she has entertained for presidential aspirants be fore the party conventions. But she never has run into unhappy aftermaths over news leaks, as sometimes re sults from. Washington parties. She has a clearly under stood rule to avoid such trou ble. Everything said is "off the record" but reprters are free to check the next day with the guest of honor for permission to use what they consider news. Possibly -, one reason May Craig's dinners are such a suc cess is that she has no worry over menus. She has a basic dinner-broiled chicken-which she serves at every party. She said: "A dinner, like your house, should be typically yours. Peo ple remember -it if you have J TT ; 11 s 4. ssx 1 :.r .11 . 1 ! jj TheHOTT I the CLEANER the DISHES!

MICARTA UP " TROWBRIDGE Cr 214 West Main BIG Y a specialty and look forward to it. If you have a good menu, why change? You can't im prove it." , She likes her table to be "white and pretty." It always it. She always uses white lin en, white flowers in a crystal vase on a mirror, white can dles in glass canlesticks and gold-edged white china. Keeps Cook The cooking is done by her prized housekeeper, Louise Jacobs, who has been with her since her children were little and has never had an other employer. Mrs. Craig has her personal ity stamped even on her man ner of serving. Everything is always on plates direct from the kitchen to 'avoid passing, which she dislikes, and the order never varies. The first course is a big salad, arranged to make the "plate look pretty." Then comes a plate with half a chicken, two halves of spiced peaches that have been soaked in brandy for 24 hours, and maybe a sprig of parsley or green vegetable for color con trast. There is one definite variation to the course - she serves either cornbread, spoonbread or biscuits. Fruit with cordial to pour over it is Mrs. Craig's favor ite summer dessert. In winter she serves vanilla ice cream with a topping, usually of chopped preserved fruit, the kind used in making fruit cake. Coffee is served at the table in pretty individual cups gathered from around the world. Her home is so near Capi tol Hill that when her chil dren were young they used the big tree-shaded Capitol grounds as they playground. The house has one room that records May's life and times. This is her office, up stairs off her bedroom. Its walls are papered with pic tures of the great and near great about whom she has written for her Portland, Me., papers. Included are -presidential press' conferences in which she is shown and which go back to one held by then President Herbert Hoover. Among autographed photo graphs is full length of Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt, taken at the time of "FDR's" inaugural. Mrs. Roosevelt has been the honor guest, at sev eral May Craig parties. . ' Tuna Links New York (UPD Frozen tuna links should be cooked four minutes in gently boiling water and cooled before serv ing in a salad. Anchovy fillets, capers, olives, quartered hard cooked eggs, hearts of lettuce and radish slices blend well with the links in a mayonnaise sauce.
