1Q MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, Or. A Monday, March 28, 1960 Frenchman Styles Hair Of Socialites By GAY PAULEY UPI Women'g Editor New York -(CPD- Tradition ally, the beauty shop is the place to go, not only to pretty up, but to catch up on the latest gos sip. -: . But the tra-r dition doesn't work' with Claude, a man for whom doz- G Pauley ens Of SOCial- ltes daily let down their hair. About all I could wrest from him in the way of talk about the Duchess of Wind er, for instance, was that she brings her own Paris-designed smock when she gets her hair done and the smock isn't always freshly laundered. "I don't know why she pre fers her own," sighed Claude. "Ours are cleaner. At Claude's, a smock never is used twice." The duchess also refuses to use the community dressing room to change - she gets out of her Dior suits in Claude's tiny office. The hairdresser can't figure why this foible "unless," he grinned "she's fraid some, other customer might copy one of her cos tumes." , Bevy of Beauties Most of the customers who crowd into Claude's shop m a remodeled town house couldn't care less about copy ing - their custom-made ward robes already nave neipea them become perennials on best-dressed lists. Mrs. Henry Ford, II, Mrs. Thomas Ban croft, Jr., Mrs. Winston Guest, and actress Rosalind Russell, for instance. All are regulars at Claude's when they're in town and fre quently will call for him and his 18-carat gold razor for snipping when they're out of town. j He flew recently to Grosse Pointe, Mich., to do the coif fures of the Ford women when Charlote Ford made her lav ish debut. During the winter social season at Palm Beach, he often will fly down to do Mrs. Guest's hair or that of the Duchess, if she and the Duke are south with friends. Traveling t Customers On occasion, Mrs. John Hay Whitney, wife of the United States Ambassador to the Court of St. James's, sends her private plane to bring him to Fisher's Island where the fam ily has a summer home. "I've no idea the miles I cover each year for custom ers," said Claude. "Maybe what I should do is set up a beauty shop in a trailer, huh?" The customers' pay the ex penses and for Claude's time when they get much special service, but the hairdresser wouldn't say how much he asked for, say, a jaunt to Palm Beach.. Claude, a small, shy man whom I'd guess is in his late 30's, studied hairdressing in his native France under tne famous Antoine. He has work ed in New York 10 years, and today has a staff of 25 hair dressers, manicurists, and col orists. I asked him what he felt had made him a pet of the so cial set. He modestly mentioned his ability as a hairdresser, and then added: "I think also be cause they know at my shop their privacy is not invaded. I do not invite gossip. Besides, I'm too busy for it." a smartly designed spring maternity wardrobe casual- to dressy . . ensembles, , versatile separates to mix and match, at wonderful LaPointe's prices! IN THE MEDFORD 16 Policy Changes, Program Outlined for Girl Scouts Plans for improvement of the Girl Scout program and facilities in the Rogue Valley council area were reviewed and approved at the annual meeting held last week in Westminster Presby t e r i a n church. Mrs. Richard Gray, council president, presided Major action was the de cision to purchase a 200-acre plot of wooded land in the area known as Little Switzer land for camping activities for Girl Scouts under the council's jurisdiction. Mr. and Mrs. William Schmidt, own ers, are interested in preserv ing the natural. beauty of the area, it is reported, and the agreement to purchase will set forth measures for this preservation. - . .. . "Countless new camping opportunities will be opened to Rogue Valley Scouts and their leaders should the coun cil purchase the land," it is said. In line with this , move . of the council, policy 'changes concerning camping were re viewed at last week's session. Miss Ruth Kilbourn, execu tive secretary, presented the changes which deal with the training of adults who ac company Scouts on camping trips and which will allow more troops to participate in overnight camping, it was said. Policies Changed Leadership policy changes and troop committee require ments were also altered at the meeting. In addition to an introduction to Girl Scouting by a qualified adult neighbor hood committee member or council ' member, an adult must now be "willing and able to take training for the specific age level with which she will be working," have her application approved by the neighborhood committee and on file in the Girl Scout office. In the past each troop has been required to have a lead er, assistant leader and from three to five committee mem bers; in the future, each troop, on any level, must have an additional adult for each 8 to 10 girls. Another policy change con cerns awards and activities and in the future girls work ing on badges at camp or out side the troop must share some of their experiences with troop members before receiv ing their awards. Other business at the ses sion included presentation of the 1930-61 budget, council approval of appointments and election of delegates to a na tional conference. Ted Ber gold, council' finance commit tee chairman, presented a budget of 44,101 for the period. Since Mr. and Mrs. Bergold are moving from the council area, apopintments were made to fill the vacancies. Adam Richter, Medford, will re place Mr. Bergold and Mrs. Bergold will be replaced by Mrs. T. M. Deter, Yreka, Calif., as camp committee chairman. Mrs. Edwin Rasch has as sumed the duties of Juliet Low world friendship fund chairman for the council. Miss Kilbourn, Mrs. Gray and Mrs. Deter were named delegates to the national con-vention.- International opportunities for Senior Scouts were dis cussed at the meeting, and Miss Betty Duffy, Ashland Senior Scout, was introduced to the group. Miss Duffy is one of 21 seniors and 2 lead ers from the United States who will ' attend a Jubilee Camp in Great .Britain in celebration of 50 years of Girl Guiding in that country. The SHOPPING CENTER te&iaq delegate reviewed the work she has done in Scouting which led to this opportunity, and asked that Scout troops in the Council contribute photos and other materials of interest to be included in scrap books which she will take to the Jubilee Camps. Duties Emphasized Mrs. Wilberta Leroy em phasized the duties of adults in helping Scouts to become prepared for the opportuni ties in Scouting. Mrs. Leroy also informed the group of the "Heritage Trail," an ex ploration of this nation by Senior Scouts and Rangers to be held in 1961. The Rogue Valley council will hostess a group participating in this program, which will be car ried out in order to prepare a guide of the nation. Mrs. T. M. Deter spoke to the group about an adult training ses sion she attended at Our Ca bana, international meeting place of Girl Scouts and Girl Guides in Mexico. Mrs. Deter told of plans for another train ing session in 1962. A report from the commit tee on council program sur vey was presented by Mrs. Leroy. According to Mrs. Le roy the Council is strong in knowledge and understand ing of the Girl Scout Promise and Laws, attendance at meet ings, creativeness in program planning and leader-girl rela tionships. A questionnaire completed by Brownie and Intermediate Scouts in the Council revealed areas where the girls would like program changes. Brownie Scouts would like ' more arts and crafts and out-of-doors activi ties, she said. Intermediate Scouts again also would like more out-of-doors activities. The problem of maintaining enrollment was also discuss ed by Mrs. Leroy. The survey committee found that enroll ment problems center in lack of parental interest, inability to retain leaders, loss of in terest among the girls, and lack "of use of the troop com mittees. The best troops are those which have good meet ing places, community sup port, on-the-job help . from parents, committee help, and leaders who graduate" with their troops. Luncheon was served the group by the women of West minster Presbyterian Church. Interesting table decorations consisting of ceramic pieces and bird feeders were pro vided by Troops 88 and 130. Statuettes of Girl Scouts were presented by Mrs. Gray to Mrs. T. R, Lytle, past-president of the Council, and to Mr. and Mrs. Bergold, for their work in Scouting. Dr. Leonard B. Mayfield talked on the Communist youth program in the U.S.S.R. Dr. Mayfield, Medford sup erintendent of schools, was one of a group of United States educators to tour Rus sia in 1959. -f- Family Dinner Marks Birthdays 'Harrison Wright was honor ed recently at a dinner which observed his 80th birthday an-, niversary.

"We bought once, but the mints and peanuts ai-e so good and the cause so worthy that we want to buy again," is a statement which welcomes the girls selling in pairs, accord ing to Mrs. Pierce Roberts, president of the Jocal council. Mrs. Roberts, in a recent report to the candy sale com mittee, stated that "The an nual candy sale gives the Camp Fire Girls an oppor tunity for a youthful taste of business, and at the same time, the experience of help ing to further and extend the Camp Fire program to more girls of every race, color and economic background. Selling candy also helps the girls to help themselves. In Jackson county, for instance, the girls are given the oppor tunity to earn a big portion of their summer camperships at Dead Indian. Soda Springs. Any Jackson county resi dent not contacted as yet by a Camp Fire Girl is urged to call the local Camp Fire of fice and a pair of neighbor girls in spic and span service costume will be sent at once.

There are two kinds of coughs: ' 1. Productive the occasional useful cough that clears the throat and bronchial tubes. DONDRIL does not interfere' with the useful, cough. 2. Non productive the nagging cough that racks the body, uselessly, and serves no purpose. DONDRIL stops useless coughing. ion Service of Leather Indus tries of America reported. Spectators go dressy for eve ning with brilliants or mar- casites instead of perforations. One unusual spectator shoe for cocktail wear features a design of perforated black pat ent leather with a bright un derlay of color. The woman with a figure problem which keeps her out of slacks can find flattery in culottes. The culotte-look pro vides a flattering silhouette for any leisure, lounge or sports wear. Silks, both textured and flat, lead the fabric line-up for spring. There is a notice able increase, however, in the number of expensive cottons in dark abstract patterns with interesting weaves. Chiffon- weight wools, featherweight silks and air-weight cottons suit wardrobes going north or south. Black-and-white or shades of brown are combined in the newest looking prints. Suit able .for resort and spring wear, these prints range from giant floral for evening to splashy dots, bold mosaics and subdued two-tone flowers. bolt pleats, as well as shirring around the waistline, develop a rounded hipline for spring. Fluid circular skirts reappear after several years' absence, ' and even the slim mest skirt that was tapered and tight at the hemline, brings in the width suggest ing a cone shape.

(Special) A major breakthrough in cough con trol is now announced with the introduction to the public of .a new anti-cough tablet. It's a tiny tablet... to be taken with a sip of water. Working through the blood stream, this remarkable tablet stops useless coughing up to 6 full hours. Called DONDRIL Anti Cough Tablets, this entirely new concept in cough control is now Living in Guatemala Said Higher Than Other Cities By MARGARET SCHULER Guatemala City - That liv ing in Guatemala City is more expensive than Rome or Vi enna, I decided the first dav I came. After three weeks, I am of the same opinion. -Rome taxi drivers have cheerfully cheated me, but they have never asked $8 for a irip from the airport (with three stops) to a hotel. A $12 room is a good room, indeed, in Europe, and not a $2 room, as one of the "less expensive" rooms at $12 is here. A walk down Sixth avenue confirmed our ideas - and fears. Shops were filled with lovely things - lingerie, Eliza beth Arden products, Revlon and Yardley's. Electrical con trivances of all kinds - all at astronomical prices. Any thing we might buy would cost almost double what it is in the States. That was the first day though. Next day a young American called and knew many answers. Before 11 a.m. were nicely settlea in a pleas ant pension. We were intro duced to the American Club (large and beautiful), to a li brary, a coffee shop and to the Bank of America, where the vice president cashed our personal checks with only a request that we tell the U.S. Home Economists To Convene on U of O Campus Eugene - Some 200 pro fessional home economists will reflect on "Home Economics-New Directions" for a new decade when they con vene on the University of Ore gon campus, Eugene, April 1-2, for the 10th annual con vention of the Oregon Home Economics' association. All events of the two-day program are cued to the theme, "New Directions" in spired by a resolution made at the 1959 national home eco nomics convention "to en courage a popular interest in home economics," reports Convention Chairman Miss Margaret Wiese. Three widely acclaimed educators will be among pro gram speakers to expand the theme. Dr. Laura Drummond, vice president of the American Home Economics association and professor of home and family life at Teachers' Col lege, Columbia University in New York, will give the key note address, "New Direc tions, Reality or Fantasy?" Miss Velma Phillips, dean of the College of Home Eco nomics, Washington State uni versity, will present the ban quet address on April 2, "My Convictions about Home Eco nomics Education." Chancel lor John Richards of the Ore gon System of Higher Educa tion will speak on anticipated changes in higher education, in Oregon during the 1960's. Dr. Miriam G. Scholl, dean of the School of Home Eco nomics, Oregon State College, and president of the Oregon Home Economics' association, will preside over the general sessions and business meeting at 9 a.m., April 2. All home economists are in vited to the convention. Furth er information on the OHEA convention is available by calling Miss Norma Hague, extension agent in home eco nomics at the Jackson County Extension Service. Lenten Loaf New.

OONDHt It a Irooewrt Coughing r u noivw National Bank in Medford that they extend such a serv ice here. So, fortunately, we decided to remain in Guate mala City Prices still puzzle me, how ever. How. with labor at 15 cents an hour poor people can live is an enigma. There seems to be great extremes in the rich and poor. The rich are very rich and the poor are very poor. Most of the latter are the Indians. And there are striking contrasts. Milling up and down the narrow streets are modishly coiffeured, fashionably dress ed, pencil heeled, well gloved girls with the typical Spanish and Italian undulating walks. Along side of them are bare footed Indian women in native dress, balancing large baskets of everything from fruit to live poultry on their heads, carrying babies strapped to their backs and pulling chil dren at their sides. Usually all three things - one small Indian can do it. There are compensations which make up for high cost of living the weather is one continuous shining pleasant day after another, there are delightful, friendly people, there are many interesting places and things to explore and concerts to go to. Many, many Americans live nere just because of these advan tages. M y ignorance regarding Central America was pro found. And daily as I learn the fascinating history of this old Spanish country and visit the ancient capital - Antigua - with its rich old Spanish architecture I feel I am cer tainly privileged to be here A lovely big Spanish home and garden serves as the Epis copal church here, and, as there is everywhere, coffee is served after the service. The women in the parish are al ready, as at home, working for the bazaar which is in No vember. At the American Club are all the magazines in our libraries and the Miami Her ald and New York Times. The daily papers are flown in. One of the cultural relations schools, like Rome and many other places, run by the Amer ican government also provides touches of Americana. I find the Guatemalitecans avidly desire to learn English. The American Embassy gives out mail. It is good, be cause they keep a special of fice open on Saturday and Sunday and nights to mid night.
