Friday, February 5, 1960 League Considers Revision Support Limited support of revision of Oregon's constitution by legislative assembly is the consensus reached by the League of Women Voters of Oregon, Mrs. K. E. Montgom ery, state president, an nounced following the Janu ary state board meeting. An amendment permitting revi sion by legislative assembly was referred to the electorate by the 1959 State Legislature and will appear on the No vember, I960 ballot. The Oregon League decided in 1954 to support revision by means of a constitutional convention, and still prefers this method, the consensus reveals. The decision to ex tend its position slightly was taken only because League members felt revision of the constitution was so essential that an early start should be made. The Oregon League will neither actively support or op pose this amendment at the general election, but, if it passes, will throw its influ ence into seeing that revision proposals meet the high stand ards set by the League, ac cording to Mrs. David J. Lewis, chairman of the Ore gon league's committee in charge of the study. Members of 16 local Leagues participated in the concensus which was ap proved by the state board.

We Give dl GREEN STAMPS CENTRAL REXALL DRUG Mam and Central 10 Women's Mews e Social Events Copenhagen Catalogue Best Seller for Moscow (This is the second of three dispatches by an American bachelor girl working in Moscow.) . By ALINE MOSBY United Press International Moscow-(UPD-The best-selling book among foreigners in Moscow is a catalogue from a big department store in Copen hagen. Russians, confident in their growing economy, predict that within two years, foreigners who live in Moscow won't have to import anything. But today, at least, we are "remote control" shoppers. The government lets us live in the style to which we're ac customed, liberally allowing us to import virtually duty free food from English mar malade to Italian spaghetti. Via mail order, I buy can ned goods, in fact, all "dry" foods, from Copenhagen be cause most of these items either aren't available in Mos cow or are more expensive. Making out an order from the catalogue is a day's work. Which items according to the grapevine have too stiff a duty? (Avoid paper goods and plastics.) Which is the best year for French Bourdeaux wines? (Telephone a French correspondent.) When the crates arrive, comes the task of translating directions on the can of chick en from Holland or bleach from Germany. I bravely tele phone the Dutch and German embassies. Order Before Winter There's always a frantic rush among correspondents to get orders to Copenhagen be fore the great winter sets in. Otherwise canned peas may arrive a la frozen. Many embassy wives cling to imported goods, but you miss the fun if you don't shop for some things as the Rus sians do. Yes, most fresh fruit and vegetables have vanished from the market for the win ter, and the milk brought to my door every morning by a smiling .girl in a blue uni form is powdered. Eggs are 15 cents each. But there are wonderful treats if you venture into the crowded stores and markets. Russian bread is very tasty (13V2 cents for an average size white loaf at the tourist exchange rate of 10 rubles to SI.) So is "pelmeny," like ravioli. Canned vegetables are ex pensive, but canned stuffed cabbage from Bulgaria for 42 cents is a good buy. Russian beefsteaks don't taste like the Kansas variety. But they're tender if broiled - on my port able American electric broil er. Russian stoves, like Eu ropean types, don't sport broilers. Chickens, I found to my dismay, irom even tne fanciest food store come not only with the insides intact but with head and feet still dangling. Walks To Market In summer, I can walk near ly a mile to a "free" outdoor public market where elderly women in kerchiefs sell fruits and vegetables at their7 own, not the state's, prices. Cleaning items such as scouring powder must come from abroad. But getting my maid, Tonya a wonderful girl with a timeless Russian face and sturdy body - to use these new-fangled gadgets is another matter. Tonya can't be wooed from the Russian traditions: soda to wash floors, gasoline to wash win dows, a broom instead of the vacuum cleaner, and no soap, just water, to wash dishes. She takes my sheets to a laundry down the street. For some mysterious reason, from the very first they came back Valentine Writer Aided Sore Hearts Kansas City, Mo. -UiPD- If you had been inarticulate dur ing the 16th century you might never have been able to send your loved one a Val entine message. However, an enterprising printer finally issued a "Val entine Writer" booklet in 1669, to assist the timid and less literate in preparing their messages of affection, a card manufacturer reports. Many of these references to roman tic intellect are now in an his torical collection at Hallmark. A typical sample of such early verse was: "None here are happy, but in part, full bliss were bliss divine. There dwells some wish in every heart, and doubtless one in thine."

Seals Windows Tonya also carries out an astonishing Russian house hold custom-sealing windows snui wim paper and corn starch glue to keep the winter cold out. Russians are more expert at the cosmos than cosmetics, so I brought a load of lipsticks and rely on tourists to re plenish the supply. There's a staggering import duty on cosmetics. But we can import a small amount of clothing and bring all we want from trips aboard. Russian stores are well stocked with clothing these days, but not the Paris- inspired styles I'm used to, Lingerie and stockings are ex pensive. What I have my eye on are the handmade white felt boots the peasants wear. Living here can be an eco nomical fashion advantage, however. Foreign females in Moscow have a silent pact to wear last year's styles, and nobody knows the difference.

Student Actors ' Polish Dialects For Senior Play Three Medford High school students are working hard on the dialects which they will use for the coming production of "Pygmalion," George Ber nard Shaw play to be given by the senior class February j 18-19. Hrs. Lenore Zapell is the director. Both Henry Higgens. play ed by Wayne Thompson, and Colonel Pickering, played by Pat McLaughlin, are students of dialects.

Theme of the play is the transformation of Eliza into a "lady" and her tutor, Hig gens, promises that in three months he, will be able to "pass her off' as a duchess at a garden party. Pickering accepts the promise as a chal lenge and Eliza's education begins. . New York Two beautiful women met in New York this week and talked about beauty and glamour. Miss Lynda Lee Mead, Miss America for 1960, and Miss Joan Crawford, movie queen, agreed that beauty is a present from nature but that glamour comes from planning. (UPI Telephoto) Cleanliness Said First Ingredient of Glamour By GAY PAULEY UPI Women's Editor New York-(UPD-Two Women whose faces are their fortune agree that beauty is a present from nature. But the elusive quality called glamour comes from planning. The two are Joan Crawford, a spellbinder in the grand manner, and Lynda Lee Mead, who as Miss America of 1960 is a relative newcomer to the field. The movie queen and the beauty queen met for the first time this week, when Miss Mead, an English major at the University of Mississippi, came to New York for the an nual Pepsi-Cola convention. The beverage firms, which Miss Crawford's late husband Alfred Steele headed, is one of the sponsors of the annual Miss America pageant in At lantic City. Over soft drinks-what else? -the three of us sat in Miss Crawford's suite at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel for some "girl talk" on the ingredients of, beauty, glamour and sex appeal. "Well," said Miss Crawford of the big eyes and red-gold hair, "I don't think that con fection-like prettiness . . . that the candy box look ... is beauty. Bone Structure Counts "On the long haul, it's bone structure that counts. And that, you're born with." Both dismissed the Brigitte Bardot types as something less than beautiful, male votes to the contrary. "The baby doll face is not my idea of beauty," said Miss Mead. "Nor is the unkempt look." "I'll tell you the first ingre dient of glamour," said Miss Crawford. "It's cleanliness." "Amen," said Miss America, a 20-year-old brunette who looked like she had just step ped from a shower. "And," continued the act ress, "glamour is planning." She cited as an example hers for the convention, at which she was official hostess. She had moved from her Fifth Avenue apartment to the ho tel for the week. Work at Relaxing "Every dress, every hat, purse, pair of shoes, jewelry. Everything planned right down to the last hanky," she said. "Time consuming yes, but you have to do it. Y ou have to be so prepared that you walk into a room, com pletely relaxed, and no one realizes that all of this was no accident." Even with all the effort a girl puts into glamour, she misses if she "lacks warmth, if she isn't outgoing, if she doesn't have good manners," they agreed. WITH BIFOCAL SHADOW!

Omm JL Nate - Miss America demurred in trying to define sex appeal in a woman but said that in a man, cleanliness again is a major factor. "Why is it," asked Miss Crawford, "that men seem 'to think they don't need a de odorant?" Miss Mead laughed and ad ded, that "I know what you mean. You see a man who's just dead attractive, and you're dying for him to ask you to dance. And you get close on the floor ..." She wrinkled her nose in disgust. The actress hauled the con versation back to feminine ap peal with the observation that "most men don't want it flaunted or obvious. Subtelty counts more. A chiffon dress can do more than a bikini. . . ' "We are," she laughed, "still at the same old game of man and woman. But few people know how to play it anymore. So many want to get into the third act before the curtain has gone up." Zuleima Club Elects Officers Cave Junction-Illinois Val ley Zuleima Nile club elected officers at a meeting held re cently at the home of Mrs, Vivian Deaton. Elected were Mrs. George Mulvey, presi dent; Mrs. William Weingart, vice-president and Mrs. Larry Goff, re-elected seer e t a r y treasurer. Mrs. Deaton is the retiring president.
