I960 Women New York Hairdressers and milliners begin a happy honeymoon this season as the revival of fashions of the .'30s brings back the sleek, cropped hairdo and the "little" hat.

(UFI Telephoto) Field of Home Economics Is One of Double Future7 Corvallis In days gone by. college coeds enrolled in home economics with Just an eye on a home and a hubsand. To day, one eye is still there but the other is fixed on a pro fessional career, an Oregon Slate college survey indicates. : Just before commencement this year, the 89 home eco nomics graduates from OSC were asked about their future plans. - Only 7 of the 89 listed homemaker as their sole plan for the future. This figure is even more interesting consid ering that 24 of the 89 women were already married 8 with children and 20' others were planning to be married during the summer. i The survey points up how home economics has become Increasingly a double future" field, says Dean Miriam G.

The sink, while still an es sential, is being moved into a windowless corner. This is the word from Jac queline A. Dubetski, a kitchen planning expert who helps the Consolidated Edison company advise housewives on kitchen arrangements and how to use their appliances Miss Dubetski said the dish washing machine has reduced the status of the sink and in creased the housewife's leis ure more than any other sin gle invention. It is the most wonderful gadget that anyone ever thought of," she said. "It eliminated the most unpleas ant chore in the house." The dish washer also has revolutionized kitchen ar rangements, she said. All housewives used to insist on double sinks, but now that dishwashing is done me chanically, a single sink is enough. "We used to have to put Barbecue Announced Ashland Ashland Veterans of Foreign Wars post has planned the annual chicken barbecue for Sunday, August 14, from 12 noon until 6 p.m. at Lilhia park.

So simple is this rocipo to prepare you may want lo let your school-age children make a batch of the cookies.

Social Events Appliances the sink by a window because a housewife spent about three hours a day at the sink and could not very well stand there staring at a blank wall,'' Miss Dubetski said. "Now we are putting other work areas by the window instead." Electric Stoves The kitchen planner said she has discovered that many housewives still have quite a bit to learn about cooking on electric stoves. Among the instructions she gives are; -All pots should have tight fitting lids because of the in tense heat generated by elec tric burners. Also, less water can be used than in gas cook ing. -Medium-weight aluminum pans should be used. The bot tom of a porcelain pot may melt and become fused to an electric burner. Glass cook ing utensils should be used only if a protective grid is put over the burner first. -The oven door of an elec tric range should be left open for broiling. The broiler pan should not be too close to the heat. You can tell if it is too close if grease spatters. Miss Dubetski recommend ed that the kitchen be arrang ed in a work triangle consist ing of the laundry center, the counter - sink - cooking center and the refrigerator-freezer center. "There should be a work surface next to every ap pliance," she said. "Never put the dish washer next to the refrigerator because its heat ing element can affect the coolness of the freezer. The refrigerator should not be next to the oven side of the stove for the same reason. And the refrigerator door should open away from the adjoining counter area. It is amazing, she said, how many housewives do not know that it is possible to buy refrigerators with doors that open either to the left or right. Most think they come with only one door style.
