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

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.

sports wear collections in
Florence.

Hair Stylist De
Ten -Minute Dryinq Comina
By GAY PAULEY- .
UPI Women's Editor
New York -(UPD The half

the hair dryer is cooked. Soon

more than a

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.
