(UPI Telephoto) Raw FruitsVegetables Make Up Banquet Menu By GAY PAULEY UPI Women's Editor New York-flJPD-The banquet menu for a group holding its 12th annual convention this week in New York lists 35 foods-and not a chicken or steak in sight. Two thous and members of the Ameri c a n Natural Hyeiene So- ' I c i e ty, Inc., Go Pauley will sit down Saturday night to a buffet dinner of fruits and vege tables, almost all of them raw. There will be no soup. There will be nuts - cashews, almonds and peanuts. The foods range from "A" for apples to "Z" for zucchini, include 12 vegetables, 13 fruits, dates, raisins, unsalted pot cheese, olive oil and black olives. Fruit punch will be served -unspiked. There will be no bread, butter, water, salt, pepper, tobacco, coffee or tea. If members find some parts of the feast too bland, they can reach for a special vege table seasoning. The tables will be decorated with candles and ferns, non-edible. R. J. Cheatham, of Tampa, Fla., the society president who was converted to vege tarianism after cancer surgery 13 years ago, explained that members are "scientific vege tarians." "Meat Is Second Rale" They believe foods served in their natural state provide the best nutrition. But they'll steam some vegetables-broccoli for instance to make them more palatable. Season ings used are lemon and vege table oils. "Meat is a second rate food," said Cheatham, not the least bit worried about the label he put on a .staple of the American diet. "The animal from which it came got the best food. You know, almost all animals used for meat are vegetarian. Pigs and poultry are the exception -they'll eat anything." "There have been vegetar ians 1 all through history, " Cheatham continued, in an in terview between meetings "George Bernard Shaw was one of the most famous Gloria Swanson is one." Cheatham, a healthy look- Group Installs Corps of Officers Officers for the coming year were installed by Mrs Carl Elhart at a recent meet ing of Women's Fellowship of Medford Congregational church. Mrs. Don Bohnert was re-elected president of the group and serving with her will be Mrs. Henry Padgham, first vice-president; Mrs. E. H, Dusenbury, second vlcc-presi' dent; Mrs. Floyd Fogelquist, seretary; and Mrs. Raymond Smith, treasurer. A potluck salad luncheon was served in Pilgrim house before the installation. . Mrs. Henry Padgham and Mrs. C. C. Furnas were hostesses for the meeting. A gift was presented Mrs. Paul Norrls, who is moving to Klamath Falls, s ing man of about 40 years of age, used to own a business in Detroit selling automatic fire alarm equipment. A year ago the family - wife and five daughters ranging in age from 17 to three years-moved to Tampa, Fla., for a "more salubrious climate." "All of us are vegetarians," he said. "The baby hasn't had milk since she was six months old and went on fruits and vegetables." Slim Vegetarians Are society members slim mer than the rest of us? "Well" Cheatham said. "I'm six feet tall. For my height, all the life Insurance tables say I should weigh 185 pounds. I weigh 165. "The same holds true for most of the members-women included. The majority are underweight, measured by or thodox standards. Some are a little plump. They're the not- so-good hygieners." One thing you'll have to say about the raw vegetable and fruit set. They match the energy of Harry S. Truman, a non-vegetarian. The program for each day this week began: 6:50 a.m., morning walk and exercise period." I'll wager that no other convention in this city's his tory got off to that kind of start each day. 1 Journalism Grant Seeks Betterment Of Women's Pages Columbia, Mo. - A grant from J. C. Penney company to the University of Missouri to conduct a national compe tition for journalism awards has been announced by the university president, Elmer Ellis in Columbia, Mo.

Students of Guatemala Write Letters to Medforo! By MARGARET SCHULER Guatemala City, Guatemala -And here Is something for a "Believe It or Not" column. A principal of n private school here, Is endeavoring to nilsc money, among other private schools to keep a public school open. Although a great share of education Is maintained by private institutions, it is said that the government can not afford to pay salaries. University students this past week, have been threatening to strike unless their profes sors are paid three months' back salary due them. When Guatemnltecas wish to protest something, they make bombs and toss them into rather harmless spots like church yards, or streets where there aren't people. Last night two such bombs were thrown, it is thought, in protest against the govern ment. One thing seems fairly cer tain however. Guntciiialtecus do not again want a commu nist regime. Educations is a serious mat ter in Guatemala, that is, for certain people. Arguments against mass education and excuses for not having it, are curious to hear. As curious as the reasons for poverty. "People are happy as they are. They don't want a differ ent way of life. They like to sit (whole familes) on street corners. They are lazy." et cetera.

' know holes can bo punched In their childish arguments, but the fact that they are conscious of being Ignored by our rich, big country, and their uni versal to.'c of bllloniess, I feel Is significant.) Dear Friends: My name Is Ann Tlschmunn; I am 13 years old. 1 live In Guatemala but I had been studying for two years In Switzerland mid I had visited the United States many times. I think that the education of tlie United States Is not so advanced as the European and the Uuiitemulan educa tion. I am going to give you some reasons why I bellevo this to be truo. Wo learn more than two languages: English, Spanish, French or German. In the United States you do not speak more than imu language because you think English Is the most Important, and you think It because we speak lt in all the world, and you lire right. But I think that a person who wants to bo cul tured has to know more than two languages. In the United States you do not know about many coun tries. I sny that because many times children of the United States have asked me where Guatemala Is placed. If some children of the United States ask us about any place of the United States and all the world we may give you In formation. If you want us to give some or send you some cards, please wrile back and tell us. We feel unhappy not to have correspondence with you, my sincere friends. Your friend, Anna Tischmnnn. Deur School Children: This Is a friendly letter about 'my opinion of tho Unit ed States education, and to ask you what you think about I know that your education Is very good but lt isn't more important than Guatemala. I have heard that you only study the customs and the story of your country. Here in Guntcmula we study your customs, our customs, your stories and our stories. I have heard that you think that we are Indians and Guatemala is in South Ameri ca or in Africa and that we are savages. If you don't know about Guatemala, we can send post cards and magazines. Guatemala Is a civilized country. We arc not Indians. We live In modern houses as you do. We have an English teacher. I am 14 years old. Your friend, Myra Paznt.

Few women, oilier than sec retaries and research assist ants, are employed in tho field, but there are no bar riers against tho woman in dustrial designer. Women over 35 are accepted readily, and women who hove retired to have families have no trouble getting buck Into the field, says Walter Landor, British-born owner of West Cpast design firm. An Industrial designer's job Is to shupo consumer products and tho packages In which these products come. Because women buy most of these goods, they especially are suited to a design career. Landor said. "Women are better able to anticipate tho psychological response of another woman to a design," he said. "And women have a greater Inter est In and understanding of convenience features of puck aging and products. "Women also have high color sensitivity and consid erable skill, at problem solv ing, especially in a limited sphere -like whether a handle on a pot should ho higher or lower," he added. To be a successful industrial designer, you need skill and marketing sense, Landor said. Art and marketing experience arc necessary. Salaries range from $100 to $300 a week for a begin ner. There Is no limit to top salaries - at least $23,000 or $30,000 as a designer employ ed by a firm - and more if a designer owns a studio. "Fringe benefits" of the Job arc traveling - if the firm Is nationally operated - and meeting men, Landor said. T.e Fashionettei ILK- PRICES ARE NOW IN EFFECT! ALL SUMMER MERCHANDISE .
