' Antiques Good Investment Says New York By GAY PAULEY UPI Women's Editor New York - (UPD - Buying antiques is like buying stocks and bonds, says one authority In the a n- tique field. Wisely chosen for a long range Invest ment and not for specula tlon, they're bound to pay off. "And you Gay Pauley get the ad ditional return of looking at and using the antiques," said Walter du Vcrrler. "Stocks you've got to keep locked in a safety deposit box." The market value of an tiques, like the market value of art. keeps going up, said Du Verricr during an inter view at the New York an tiques fair. He gave two reasons. One, all the money around apparently Just wait- inn to be spent. And two, the Increase in the number of collectors. "I can show item by item various things which are bringing two to 10 times what they cost 30 years ago," said Du Verricr. "That Is, If you can find them now. Thirty years ago, one out of say every 1,000 persons might have been interested in an tiques cither as a collector or a dealer. Today, it's more nearly one out of every 100." Gold for Tins He listed two examples of rising prices in the antiques field. One, biscuit tins with a "trompe l'oell" design - that Is, shaped like books, furni ture or a globe, Instead of like a plain old biscuit tin. These are vintage 1900 to 1910, he said, and originally were used by commercial food packagers. A few years ago, the nominal price on one would be $5 to $10. Today, ha said, they're snapped up by private collectors or food companies at $30 to $40 each. And the other, American pewter, which now Is worth three to four times what It cost a collector 30 to 40 years ago. ' : .-''.- I asked Du Verricr to list some "blue chip" antiques -those which he considered News Rogue River PTA Names Committees Rogue River-A budget for the year was approved, and parents and teachers intro duced at the first fall meet ing of Rogue River Parent- Teacher association.

Judge To Speak In Central Point Central Point -Judge Ed ward C. Kelly will speak at a meeting of. Central Point Parent-Teacher association set for Thursday, October 27, at 8 p.m. at Jewett school cafe torium.

"French, American, or English furniture of the 18th and early 19th century," he answered. "American sil ver, especially Georgian. Pew ter. Good patterned pressed glass. Lowestoft porcelain, Oriental import. Any porce lain made prior to 1840 and in good condition. Grandfather clocks. ' Current Fads . "Of course," he said, "an tiques like fashions have their fads. Right now, the biggest fad of all - the one with the most impact-is art(nouveau.' Art nouveau, he explained, Includes colored leaded' glass lampshades which hung from ceilings during the late Vic torian era, leaded glass panes, art glass and bronze figures, Du Verrler, 40, a native New Yorker, has been in an tiques since 1947 - first under the tutelage of the late Alfred Faber, one of New York's most respected dealers, then for six years with his shop in Canaan, Conn., and now In the heart of the antiques shop ping district in Manhattan. If you have a yen to be a collector, Du Verrier offered this advice: Read every article, every book you can find on antiques, Never miss an antiques show. Haunt antiques shops and museums. Collect what truly Interests you, and don t scat ter your interests. Don't over build your collection, so that it becomes a bore to you, and to your friends.

By ALINE MOSBY United Press International ' Moscow (UPD - A trip to a public bath in Moscow indi cates that in this field the Russians out do iis, too. . Having once M V' visited an fir V American I ts 1 nudist camp, I l7 f: c onc.luded mem ut iuuie t e r ritory to expose when groups bathe in Moscow in Aline Moiby the altogether. Furthermore, 1 1 h e ladies' community bath I scrubbed in is resplendent with gold chandeliers, statutes, orange fringed lamp shades and bro caded walls. A nudist camp I once knew in San Bernardino, Calif., can't boast that. Public-baths are popular in Moscow. It's a change from the bathroom queue in crowd ed apartments. Men relax from their labors in the seven year plan and women check in for a complete beauty overhaul. , : Bathhouse Popular The Central Bathhouse around the corner from the Bolshoi Ballet Theater used to be a rendezvous for no bility in the old days. Mer chants took their "lady friends" to private bathrooms. But now even husbands and wives showing marriage cer tificates are not admitted to the baths together. Gandts Honor Couple, at Party Mr. and Mrs. Albert W. Gandt were hosts for a party Saturday, October 22, which honored Mr. and Mrs. Richard D. Werner.

' The buffet table was deco rated with an arrangement of magnolia and lighted tapers. Mrs. Paul Gandt and Mrs. El mer Ayres poured.

Name Imprinted CHRISTMAS CARDS '1 ' . On tht Balcony of 217 I. Main Medford ouai events Public Baths I climbed a magnificent staircase, paid 60 cents (six rubles) admission and entered through the door marked "la dies" to face a stunning sight, Russian females of all sizes, young ones, slim ones and wide ones, were undressing on long settees. Pink cotton bloomers are popular in Mos cow these days, I noticed. An attendant brought a beach-size towel, but that's to hide under later. There's only one way to get to the bath room, and that s to walk the length of the dressing room wearing only a bar of soap and a shower cap. Inferno Scene The bathroom was the size of a gymnasium and looked like a scene from Dante's In ferno. Through a haze of steam, women sat on marble benches, feet in one pan of hot water with another pan for scrubbing and splashing. For 30 cents, a professional scrubber went over me, every inch three times, with -strips of rough bark. Many women were washing their waist length hair. In an adjoining steam room, lady attendants, also nude, poured water on hot bricks while hardy wom en beat themselves with hick ory branches. "Why do you foreigners come here? You have private bathrooms in your hotels," a Russian woman inquired be tween slaps with the wet, green leaves. Women Oueue V After the bath, the women queued up for pedicures, manicures, coiffures or body massages. If you want exercise, in an other bathhouse down the street is a small pool the size of a' Roman bathtub adorned with a silver-colored Soviet stature of a little boy. In the old days when Push kin and Chekhov sat in the men's steam section of the public bath; they sipped champagne from the bar. . To day while white - uniformed girls clip your toenails you can sample black or red caviar sandwiches, beer and sweet Russian soft drinks. : Foreigners usually feel iso lated In Moscow. But the pub lic bath is one place where you can feel a sister under the skin with ! the ' Russian women, at least. mm SfSIUNE No matter what the weather outside, it's always perfect drying weather when you own a Hamilton.
