Up Tho Laddar Judging from Mrs. Wil liams accomplishments, one would be inclined to agree. The energetic woman from St. Petersburg, Fla., has come up the political ladder rung by rung both in the national Re publican party organization and in Republican Women's club work. She started out in her po litical career as a teenager driving voters to the polls. In 1954, she was elected Florida Slate commiueewuniau u i Pinellas County and two years later was endorsed for the : state post of Republican na tional committeewoman. She won reelection to the post this year without opposition. Mrs. Williams was wrii in Syracuse, ft. i., me aaugiuer of a dairy executive. She says he first became interested in politics when she was a young girl listening to family dis cussions across the dinner table. Woman Vic Piesidanl?

She believes American women will support the Republican ticket as they did tn 1958 "be cause they're interested in Re publican issues and what Re publicanism has to offer." On the subject of a woman vice-president, Mrs. Williams says "not yet." "Until more women are governors, until more women sit in the Senate and in the House, and until more women hold responsible cabinet posts in their states," she said, they aren't ready to hold down the number two job in the nation.

It keeps to tradition for fall. The New York collection show Friday was more wear able than startling, and right in tunc with what most other American designers did for the coming season. Namely, dropped the waistline. If the firm plans any new silhouette to rock the fashion world, we will learn about it July 27, when the Paris col lection is shown reporters. Yves St. Laurent, the slightly . built, bespectacled young designer who succeed ed the late Dior, called the look of his New York collec tion "soignee." Dior collec tions have had "looks" just about every season since the revolutionary "new look" of 1947, which hauled hemlines to a postwar low. Suit jackets were longer than last season, rang ing from mid-hip to wrist bone. These had "implied" fit, skimming the figure in front, falling straight at the back. Has Decanter Snaps The longer torso, or drop ped waist, theme ran through the collection. Afternoon dresses noncha lantly skimmed the torso to the 'hipbone and from there, swung out with fine gathers, and then narrowed again at the hemline to give what the firm called, "a charming de canter shape." Some costumes were un belted. Others were belted loosely at the upper hipbone. Shoulders got the rounded Freezer, Refrigerator Rules Given by Experts Corvallis-Frozen foods stor ed at zero degrees or less retain their fresh qualities and full natural flavors no ticeably better than foods stored at temperatures above zero. As the most active part of the freezing season gets un derway, Oregon State college extension specialists call at tention to the importance of following recommended freez ing temperatures and becom ing more familiar with freez er and refrigerator types. A true freezer maintains zero degrees temperature or less and is best for freezing foods several months. A freez er may be a separate piece of equipment or part of the refrigerator, such as in the refrigerator freezer combina tion. However, some homemak ers confuse use of a combination-refrigerator freezer and a refrigerator with a large cold storage compartment. Most refrigerator-combinations consist of two individual compartments with a door for each. This permits opening the refrigerator but not the freezer. Large quantities of food, amounts above those specified by freezer instruction books, should be taken to a commer cial locker for quick freezing. Adding large amounts of well wrapped warm food to a freezer at any single time will raise freezer temperatures several degrees. Fluctuation of temperatures in freezers of any of the cold storage units is even more damaging to food quality than constant temperatures 10 to 15 degrees above zero, col lege specialists note. Cold storage or "ice cube" sections are not freezer units. Temperatures in these may range from 15 to 25 degrees above zero. Food stored in these areas loses quality, may take on icebox flavors, or change in texture if food is held there more than two weeks. Food that is stored there should be eaten In ten days or two weeks for best quality. During the summer, tem peratures fluctuate in the ice cube section in frequent open ings for ice, popsiclcs and Ice cream. The OSC home economists list these tips for use of freez ers and cold storage units. Get acquainted with cold storage equipment in your home. Study the Instruction book for your refrigerator or freezer. Bernice Strawn, OSC home management specialist, says it's amazing how to make best use of it. Orcgonians spend about $10 million a year for new refrigerators and freezers, she notes, When shopping for frozen foods, put them last on your food shopping list, advises Zclma Rcigle, OSC extension food marketing specialist. Don't store them In a hot car, and then run other errands. Put in freezer as soon as pos sible. I News or dolman treatment in many suits and coats.

No food will be better quality when it is tak en from the freezer than when it was put in.

Woman Heads Texas Medical Association Fort Worth, Texas -(UPI)- Dr. May Owen, chief pathologist for Terrell Laboratories, is the first woman to become president of the Texas Medi cal association, A white-haired career wom an, Dr. Owen holds degrees from Texas Christian univer sity and the Louisville Medi cal school. An honorary degree was in recognition of her discovery that a powder once used on surgical gloves was causing infections when It fell into an incision. Dr. Owen's research resulted in the development of a new, safe absorbent powder. She was born on a Falls County, Texas, farm before the turn of the century, one of seven children. Dr. Owen developed an interest in medi cine as a child, and went on to study at TCU and Louis ville, and to do graduate work at the Mayo clinic and Bcllevue hospital, New York. Dr. Owen returned to her native slate In 1028 to work as a pathologist at Fort Worth's Terrell Laboratories, In 1951, she was named one of the outstanding women of Texas, Her devotion to medical service was recognized again in 1951 when fellow doctors gave her a "gold headed cane," symbolic of service to the medical profession, , Wearable forearm. Suit skirts were slim, but some had hip yokes and . slight gathers falling from the yoke to give walk ing ease.
