(UPI Telephoto) If Show Business is Slow Entertainers Turn Painters By GAY PAULEY UPI Women't Editor New York - (UPD - When ihow business is slow busi ness, Lovey Powell and Nancy Watts paint - other people's apartments. "Well, its good to have tome other skill to full back on," said Miss Watts, actress. She and Miss Powell, singer, are neighbors in an aged apartment house In Greenwich Village and were strictly am' ateurs with a brush until they started their decorating side line six months ago. Now, they bill themselves at the "straw hat painters" and are so professional that a friendly supply store in the village has agreed to deliver the leotard-clad girls with lad ders, brushes, paint buckets, canvas and straw hats to any point in the metropolitan area. They have painted elegant apartments in the new Wash ington Square village, recent ly did a seven-room apartment In Brooklyn, and think their strangest job was to paint the pad of a village beatnik. "He ordered the floor black," said Miss Watts, still a little awed at his taste. "He taid his decorator wanted it that way. It took two duys for the deck paint to dry." The project began when the two, while unemployed, offer ed to paint the apartment of an actress friend, Jnne Sur rey, who was working. They decided painting was an ideal in-between-jobs job because if something in show business came up, they could tow their paint pails and give notice only to them selves.

A former federal tea ex aminer who accused "t h e 1 a r g est per centage of American h 0 memakers" of this failing got dozens of Jeanne I.eaem angry letters. So his successor, Robert H. Dick of Bellmore, N.Y., will say only that improperly boil ed water produces not tea -but "brown - colored liquid, that's all. No flavor." Dick should know, for he tastes an average of 100 cups of tea daily in his job with the U.S. Food and Drug Adminis tration (FDA). Each of these brews is made from freshly drawn cold tap water brought to a rolling boil-the tempera ture needed to produce tea ex tract. ick and Albert Guarino, Garden City.

They explained that the fair sex just doesn't acquire the ex perience. Years of apprentice ship are necessary to develop a "smell memory" for compar ing up to 30 teas at one tast ing session. Years of training also are vital to tasters for tea import ers, whose secret blends must be achieved year after year, using many different teas from the more than 3,000 available. Familiar tea names, such as orange pekoe, pekoe and sou chong have nothing to do with quality or a particular plant. They indicate leaf size of black teas. Both black and green teas are made from the same plants, with these names indicating oxidization and drying methods. All tea comes from the dried leaves of ever- Coffee Given For Newcomer Eagle Point-Mrs. Tom Dun fy was welcomed to the com munity at a coffee given at the home of Mrs. Clarence Kelly.

But unlike wine tasters, they needn't eat bread between sips to clear the pal ate. The beverage they sample is always a hot brew made from loose leaves, not teabags, although one third of the tea drunk in the Unit ed States is iced, and more than half is made from bags. Both bags and iced tea were discovered by chance in 1904, Dick said. The first bags were of silk, used by a New York wholesaler to distribute his samples. But his customers brewed tea without emptying the bags, and restaurants soon demanded delivery that way. Today, filter paper has re placed early silk, cheesecloth and gauze containers. Dick credited the iced brew to an English tea exhibitor at the St. Louis World's Fair. He added ice to an extra-strong brew that wasn't selling dur ing a heat wave. Today, 95 per cent of the tea Americans drink is black, about three per cent is green, and the remainder, a black and green blend called oolong. Although green tea drinkers are a minority here, they can be adamant. Dick recalled that during World War H, a woman wrote the FDA asking for a tempor ary truce with Japan so that importers could stock up on her favorite Japan green tea.
