Tunics Highlig New Colors Ar By SHEILA WALSH Rome - (UPD - The feminine form came through the Italian fashion shows almost unscath ed. The body has been clad in tunics, draped, covered with ruffles, surrounded by fringe -and sometimes even exposed in the nine days of spring summer style preview in Flor ence and Rome. But the basic shape was unchanged. Italy's high fashion design ers have not rewritten the anatomy books, nor come up with any new" look that will set the fashion world on fire. The tunic is here to stay. Long or short, slim or flared, tunics dominated the style scene in Rome and Florence. The tunic-over-slimskirt idea went straight through from day to evening. Coats stop ped short to show off some skirt underneath. The ulti mate evening tunic came from Fabiani. He took a fringed, beaded Charleston sheath and put it over a long, narrow skirt slit to the knee. Capucci, one of the pace set ters of the Italian collections, played every variation on the tunic theme. For cocktails he showed a pink shantung tunic, firmly belted and curving out over the hips, over a two March of Dimes Program Reviewed at BPWC Meet "More than ever before the New March of Dimes is guard ing the nation's health in its new program to prevent crip pling diseases." This statement, facts, fig ures, and plans on how the job will be done were ex plained by Clarence Gossage, Jackson County March of Dimes chairman, at the Jan- uary 21 meeting of the Busi ness and Professional Wo men's club. Mr. Gossage presented the March of Dimes film ."Do Unto Others," a story of the problems caused by polio, arthritis and birth defects. He reported that Oregon had 176 cases of polio up to Decern ber 15, 1959 and that of these. 146 were of the paralytic type. He also said that de spite its availability, only 35 per cent of the state's popula tion had received the Salk vaccine. He urged members to see that their families and friends had been vaccinated against the disease. Mrs. Al White gave a re port of her experiences as a hackney driver in the harness, races. Beginning as a hobby, it has developed into a busi ness adventure for her hus band and herself, owners of Rogue Stables in Medford. Mrs. White has driven and received many prizes for her driving at both the Oregon State Fair and the Cow Pal ace in San Francisco in the amateur division. She said that Medford was well repre sented in the 1959 Cow Pal ace show. Mrs. F. R. Faulkner, BPW president, introduced Mrs. Dorothy Holberton, manager of the Jackson Hotel, a new member. Mrs. Faulkner re turned Sunday from Portland after attending the state BPW board meeting. Plans for the benefit card party to be held February 13 at the Girls Community club were told by Mrs. George Watson, chair man of the event. Monday Luncheon A report on the Monday luncheon given for Miss Fern Trull, national international relations chairman and nomi nee for the position of third vice president of the National Business and Professional Wo men's club, was given by Miss Gladys Durrand. Miss Trull was returning from a National BPW executive board meeting in Washington, DC. Mrs. William Stevens, in ternational relations chair man, reported on the five in- DEVILED EGG CASSEROLE Preheat the oven to 350 de grees.

The most dangerous places were the kitchen (34 per cent) and bedroom (27 per cent). Next on the list: bathroom, living room, garage, and yard. ternational projects sponsored by BPW clubs. They include the World Friendship fund, a scholarship fund maintain ed to help educate foreign women students in the United States; the Women's Handi craft Co-operative of Jordan; The UNESCO Fundamental Education Project of Ceylon; The CARE Project for women of Mexico and Columbia and the project for training nurses on Formosa.

Halgren, all of Medford. ht Fashions; e Pink, Orange layer tiered skirt in soft ap ple green. A rounded pink punctuation mark of a hat and green gloves carried out the two-tone effect. Vertical Line For those who take their fashion straight, Princess Irene Galitzine presented the "vertical" line. Her long slim silhouette featured bloused bodices and lowered belts or slightly fitted sheaths that made contact with the body at all the vital points. For for mal wear, she circled her dresses with overskirts of spaghetti fringe or satin rib bon. In the play clothes de partment, Galitzine used fringed skirts over shorts. Hemlines stayed in the neighborhood of the knees in the Italian collections. Skirts were always short enough to produce a definitely leggy look. The shortest of the short came from young Patrick de Barentzen, a French designer who has taken Rome by storm. Hemlines played up the knee bone on his almost sack-like sheaths and narrow, button-down-the-front capes. For a soft, "bulky" look he teamed long, flared jackets over bigg belled or gathered skirts. He illustrated this look with a long gown in black and white mattress ticking stripes edged with fringe. The long jacket covered up a strapless bodice in pink taffeta. Plunging V necklines made a comeback on the Italian fashion scene this season. Veneziani presented cleavage conscious low necklines on her softly tailored suits. Orange and pink swept through Rome and Florence to become the top colors of the Italian fashion season. Black refused to take a sum mer vacation and appeared in every collection of warm weather clothes. Pants Featured Pants were featured in sports wear collections in Florence. Emilio Pucci invented a new all-purpose garment, a one - piece form - fitting ar rangement of pants and bo dice. They, were shown in elasticized shantung that left no room for figure flaws. The pants were tuckeJ, ski -fashion, into matching booties. Pucci claims 'that these "cap- ft sv v r ;r ?xA Pm'-O " v ' 4 I 8 ' Rome There's nothing shy about this violet costume from the spring collection of Tila Rossi, Rome. Favoring tunic effects and lowered waistlines. Designer Rossi shirrs a violet chiffon cocktail sheath from the strapless bodice to the short, narrow hem. For a dramatic overskirt, she adds a pair of violet-dotted whit cotton panels, set slightly below the na tural waistline. (UPI Telephoto) sules" even could go out "in the evening. "They're divine," said : a model who showed one, "you feel stark naked." . ( - Beaches will be crowded with pared-down Bikinis this summer if ItaLian designers have their way. Swim suits were stripped down to the barest essentials in Florence and in Rome. Science fiction shapes domi nated the hats. High crowned straws came in space helmet shapes. Cocktail hats turned out to be wild "explosions" of net, sometimes standing straight up in the air . like a badly frightened bridal Veil'.'- A law against slavery was enacted in Rhode Island on May 18, 1652. ; ; ' - Picnic Salad New York -(UPD- Finger sal ad is a crisp, refreshing addi tion to any picnic menu. Pack unpeeled - cucumber sticks, green pepper slices, celery and carrot sticks, green on ions, raw cauliflower buds and tomato wedges in a plas tic bag in which you have placed a smaller i c e-filled bag..

I ciares Hair Stylist De Ten -Minute Dryinq Comina By GAY PAULEY- . UPI Women's Editor New York -(UPD The half baked look women get from the hair dryer is cooked. Soon 51 we will be d e v oting no more than a c o m f ortable 10 minutes in stead of 30 to 40 leafing through old is sues of movie and fas h i o n m a g a z ines. Gay Pauley The promise of cooler heads comes from Leon Amendola, who as director of the Charles of the Ritz school of Advanced Hair Design, keeps up with the newest in hair-dressing devel opments. . "Within six months, drying will be no more than a 10 mihute process," said the hairdresser. "So 'will bleach ing and dyeing. These im provements are not in the talking stage. They are here. I predict that in the next two years, we will see the great est improvement yet in the technique of hair-dressing." Electronic Drying - He explained that improve ments will be both chemical, as in the case of bleaching, dyeing and permanenting, and mechanical. Dryers will op erate electronically, "baking" us without our noggins feel ing the heat, much the same way electronic ovens cook food without heating the uten sil. The electronic waves will bounce against the head and bounce off again, drying as they go. Amendola, a brisk articu late man with a beard to compete with Commander Whitehead's, is a New Yorker of Italian descent. He began a career in painting and sculp ture, which he studied in New York and Italy, but got into hair-dressing because friends advised it was a wide open field. Through his second career, he also met his wife-a former director of makeup and fitness for a cosmetics concern. The couple has two children, a girl going on three and a boy three months old. Amendola figures that in the 25 years he's been teach ing, he has trained 40,000 stylists-the school he. now di rects draws from all over the world and gives lessons to 5,000 a year. I sat in on one of Amen dola's classes as he demon strated to some 40 "pupils" the technique of setting for a French twist. "A poor hair dresser is one who is satis fied," said the 44-year-old Amendola. "The good ones go back to school." Later in an interview he talked of other hair news. The marcel wave-a heat method of curling used when Amen dola started-is coming back "because it is fast." Also set for revival: The shingle bob, but modernized and "in no way a duplicate of the 1920's. "The old shingle was squared off," he said.. "Wom en's heads looked like Japa nese tea gardens. This time as we take the hair off the neck, it'll be a gentle shaping. No shearing, to make a wom an look like a truck driver. He foresaw an ear of "small heads"-hair clinging closer to the scalp, and no longer puffy as a meringue. More of an over-all cap shape, he said, with the length remaining above the collar line. And, wispy strands scattered across the brow. "This type of bang brings attention to the eyes, the most beautiful feature in a woman's face," he said. I asked Amendola if he had any "do's" and "don'ts" to suggest to women. MAIL TRIBUNE, Merfferd, Of. 7 Sunday, Jan. 24, 1960 A "Yes," he said, "don't be afraid of your .hairdresser. 1 WEDDING...
