This, coming from a woman who heads a color-consulting company, sounds like heresy but Miss Fawcett, a brown eyed blond who leans to blue- green in her own wardrobe, says a lot of color you see In homes, in cars, in offices and shopping interiors over whelms us. Not that she wants us to re vert to the all-black car or the all-white grocery store. She lust wants a more discrimin ate use of color which she said is "a power - a factor which many people forget Skillfully used, It can create atmosphere, quality, appetite appeal, size, loyalty, pleasure, L Women's News Ascot.

There isn't enough lum ber to make crates and boxes. In the packing industry, demand has been booming since last fall. As a result, packers have had to come up with a solu tion to the problem of no more boxes. They have been trying to use one of the two bagasse boards manufactured on the island from sugar cane wastes. So far it's proved steady and dependable," said one packer, "and we're hoping it continues to or we'll be out of business, too." Imported timber ran out quite a while back. How fast are people leav ing Cuba? According to one United States Embassy source the exodus has definitely stepped up recently. An accu rate count is impossible to calculate. Some people wait until their lares et penates Overdone Used carelessly, she added. color can upset us. She told of first-person example on her first Jet flight. Hed Offends A whole block of seats di rectly in front of her was up holstered In fiery red, she said. "Well," she continued, 'I like touches of red in their place. And I've flown thou sands of miles. "But that was the first time I've ever become air sick That mass of red only two feet in front of me was Just too much. Miss Fawcett started to be an artist, but ended up one of tne few women heading a col or and design firm because "early in life I realized I was no Salvador Dall." Her first lob was with New York firm, the Allcolor company, headed by Arthur S Allen. "I don't think he hired me because he thought I was good, she laughed. "I think he was Just desperate." But when Allen died 15 years ago, she moved up as president, Today, she and a staff of eight plan colors for about anything you can think of fabrics, men's wear, women' wear, lipsticks, face powder, furniture, ship interiors, SU' permarkets. An Allcolor plan to help business project Its "corporate personality" will include its packaging, advertising, p r o- motlonal material, trademark factory, offices, even its sla tlonery. For one supermarket chain, she decided on the color of its delivery trucks, Pink Saved Day "Pink once saved a clothing mill from bankruptcy, she said. "When the company started making pink shirts at our suggestion, business started to climb. Pink to me will always be a happy color as a result Supermarket Interiors are one of her favorite assign ments, because this multi-million dollar Industry grows only if it appeals to the house, Color planning goes so far as the background for various foods. Chickens look best against aqua, she said. Meats look redder and f r h e against a blue-green setting Green and yellow leafy vegct ablcs need a supporting color, so she gives them green or Headaches are packed. Others just leave in a hurry. The head of one packing firm said that in two days he had gotten no less than ten calls from people wanting their goods packed and shipped out of the country And we re not expecting any let up, he said. What can you take? What can't you? All the movers come up with is "Let us pack it. Then keep your fin gers crossed. We're just play ing it by ear." The latest rumor has it that no more electrical equip ment will leave the country. The packing companies now are planning to store in ex celsior such things as refrig erators, record players, irons, toasters, and other accouter ments. Maybe it can go, may be it can't. One exhausted packer said "packing these days isn't just a matter of wrapping every thing and mailing it with the inventory included. It's a complicated procedure that involves two separate permits and packing lists which must be submitted to the National Bank of Cuba." One of these is for the cus toms official who must make a physical inspection of the contents of each lift and air van before it is sped on its way. Next biggest question seems to be "how long does it take?" Some packers say that shipments have gone through in ten days; others report that goods have been bogger down so long that they've practical ly been forgotten. Time was once when you could ring up your packer and expect on the spot serv ice. You could plan to have your belongings speeding over the waves even before you had completed the round of goodbye parties. Now scnores, the line forms to the right. Will the packing boom continue?" "Yes," says a lo cal firm manager. Then what? "Then," said the packer I'll be packing me." - '"'v.- -r X : t o i-, - 1 ., - Make a rake for Dad's Dayl Make it a "king" for Dad the ruler' o( the household.

United Press International Chicago-fflPD-The furniture designers who know mahog any best have done It up brown. Those accustomed to red mahogany were surprised when 40 tones of brown turn ed up among the more than 150 new finishes for mahog any shown at the Internation al Home Furnishings Market. Mahogany had been red for so many years that people had forgotten its natural tones of tawny sherry and sunny am ber that age to warm golden or deep mellow browns. Furniture makers, however, rememoered the warm, nat ural tones of mahogany, which seemed a natural for informal, contemporary fur niture. Makers of period furniture joined in the return to the natural tones of mahogany once favored by Hepplewhite, Sheraton and Duncan Phyfe at his prime. . Phyfe did use woods other than mahogany, but only in his latter years wnen he was turning out what he called butcher furniture. Not all the new browns available in mahogany are the natural color of the wood, but even the dyed ones are a far cry from the old, opaque red finish that hid the wood's beauty and distorted its nat ural tones. The distinctive per sonality of mahogany, its grain figure patterns and its pores show through the new finishes, natural or dyed. The same transparent fin ishes that changed the look of mahogany this year were used on numerous other hard woods to show off their nat ural grain and beauty. Most were lacquered for ease of maintenance, but still had the oiled look so popular In recent years. Even the dull mat finish used so frequently on Danish-type designs was raised in lustre to provide more eye appeal and easy care. Medford Women Speak for Guild Illinois Valley-Mrs. W. B. Clegg and Mrs. Leo Hoag, Medford, were speakers for the June meeting of St. Mat thews guild, held at the home of Mrs. Robert Brecken bridge. Mrs. Clegg is diocesan sec retary for Episcopal Church women in Oregon, and Mrs. Hoag is president of the south ern deanery, Episcopal Churchwomen. The Rev. and Mrs. Albert Sayers were also honored guests at the meeting. It was announced that no meetings will be held during July and August. Heavy Demands Made On Nation's Food Corvallis - Development of foods for astronauts may be an assignment for an Oregon State college trained food technologist as space travel looms closer to reality. Diets for space travelers are only one of mr.ny de mands being made on the food and dairy industry today as new products, new methods of food preservation, and mer chandising constantly change, says Dr. H. W. Schultz, head oi USU's food and dairy tech nology department. And, it's not too far-fetched an idea that an OSC trained scientist may help develop space foods because one out of five food technologists in the U.S. is schooled at OSC, scnuitz adds. Two-thirds of today's super market items are new or have been Improved in the past 15 years. Ten years from now, half of the items on the groc ers' shelves will be ones that don't exist today, food scien tists predict. Consumers have changed their attitudes about con venience foods in the last 10 years too. The housewife used to apologize about serving canned tood or TV dinners. Today, she's buying" an esti mated $4 billion dollars worth of canned foods, and about $2 billion dollars worth of all kinds of frozen foods. Experts say that almost one in five packages of meat sold in re tail stores today is frozen, packaged or In boneless form. Biggest Business The food industry, with an nual sales in excess of $75 billion is America's biggest business, Schultz emphasized, and food manufacturers con stantly are seeking qualified youths to fill a variety of jobs. However, not nearly enough food technologists are gradu ated each year to fill the needs of the country's 30,000 processing plants and all the other related food industries. For example, a total of 125 persons were needed this spring by state and federal inspection agencies to help en force the new provisions of COME ONE COME ALL! 25th Annual CATFISH DERBY Sponsored by Medford 20-30 Club SUNDAY-FATHER'S DAY June 19th TOU VELLE PARK FREE BOAT Will Be Given Away.

Samuels, food tech nology student adviser, re ported. The food industry In the Northwest continues its search for food scientists to fill posi tions in canning, freezing, dehydration, dairy and fish eries industries. Midwest and Eastern companies also look to OSC talent to fill positions in the baking, confectionery, brining, beverage, meat, mill ing, and fermentation indus tries. Related food industries in cluding chemical companies, container manufacturers, equipment, ingredient suppli ers, food magazines, storage plants, wholesale and retail groceries also seek food tech nology experts. Food acceptance testing is another area wide-open to youths, Samuels notes. Wom en find good jobs in test kitchens helping develop and determine consumer prefer ence for new recipes. Gone are the days, he continues, when the president of the company tasted the soup and salted it to his liking. OSC graduates can be found across the U.S. and many live in foreign countries. Three graduates, for example, are working as managers of milk recombining plants in the Orient. Two OSC graduates are employed abroad by an American soft drink bottling company.

Two of them concern- aj4 tMnaaftn b w ' f popular suo- QK Pauley jeel HltH days, and the third was a look at what women want in pack aging. The Boys' Clubs of America reported at its 54th annual convention that teenage youths put a higher value on hard work and individuality than on conformity and ag gressiveness. They worry more about their school grades and job futures than about acceptance by the girls. But all want a chance to meet girls and share activities with them. Sixty-five per cent of those interviewed were dating by the time they were 14; 91 per cent by the time they were 18. But only 19 per cent of those dating were going steady. Jobs Aid Independence The youths take jobs in or der to be financially indepen dent of their parents, rather than to help out with the fam ily budget as in the old days. Nearly 50 per cent wanted a career in one of the profes sions, with engineering the most popular field. The study, financed with $50,000 from the Grant Foun dation, took two years and in terviews with 1,000 boys, 14 through 18, in 100 cities. Youths from all social and economic groups were repre sented. The other study of teenag ers concerned girls-and mon ey.

Apparel Spending Big Item September and October buying last year totalled 941 million, of which approxi mately $888 million was on apparel alone. Blouses, sweat ers and skirts were the most popular clothing purchases. The remainder went for non-fashion items ranging; from tennis racquets and type writers to curtains and clocks. In the study on packaging, researchers found that women want to see what's in the box they buy. Nesbltt Associ ates, an industrial design firm, talked to shoppers in several suburban New York communities. The women were asked to check the package preferenc es on a list of supermarket products. Most of them rated film-wrapped baked goods, cookies, snacks, and frozen foods and prepared frozen meals as among the most in vitingly packaged. Dairy and laundry products scored as the least attractively wrapped. Rated as the most practically packaged were all dry products in cartons with "windows," and dry milk and other cartons with spouts. Least satisfactorily pack aged, the women said, were fluid milk in cartons, jams and jellies in jars with pry-up lids, and liquid detergents in smooth glass or metal con tainers because the latter are "too slippery."
