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.

fashion reporting, Journalism
Dean Earl F. English said.
Honoring the Penney com

Penney, the gift will be em

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.

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.

Women Suited
For Careers In
Industrial Design
Sun Francisco - UIPD - Any
svoman looking for a "glam
or'' career In the man's world
might consider industrial de
sign.
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.
