New YorK Tne Jacqueline Kennedy look has Swept the
fashion world, catapulting "look alike" models like Miss Euge
nia McLinn of the Frances Gill Agency into prominence, Only
seven months on the New York modeling scene, she has been
booked steadily since election day. With Waller Florell's red
wool pillbox set at the back of her bouffant hairdo, Miss
McLinn typifies the First Lady. Her red jersey suit, also by
Florell, has the wide, easy lines favored by Mrs. Kennedy.

The Ken

calling it, has
cv Pauley caught on so
rapidly that one model agency
head observed wryly, "We
blondes arc through - at least
for the next six months."
It was Candy Jones speak
ing. Miss Jones, an ex-model
who heads her own organiza
tion, said the demand for look
alikes of the 31-ycar-old Mrs.
Kennedy is "incredible."
Other agencies echoed her
sentiments. ,
"The girl who looks like
Mrs. Kennedy can write her
own ticket for the next year,"
said Paul Wnngcr, whose

agency boasts at least two
girls the "splttin' Image" of
the next mistress of the White
House.
Copying of Mrs. Kennedy's
hairdo, her makeup, her
clothes - even her posture,
which Miss Jones called the
"deb slouch of old" - has
reached such a point that one
manufacturer of store window
mannequins has created rep
licas of both the next presi
dent and first lady.
Brunettes in Demand
Mrs. Kennedy look-alikes in
the modeling world are having
a field day with bookings and
most agencies without wide
eyed brunettes on their roster
are looking for them.
One of the models doing a
rush business is a newcomer
to New York - Eugenia Mc
Linn, a native of Birmingham,
Ala., who grew up In Miami
and arrived on the New York
scene seven months ago. She
signed up with the Frances
Gill Agency and since Novem
ber 8 has been booked steadily-
, :
i "We gdt calls for Kennedy
types from publicity people,
photographers, ad agencies,
the magazines, the people put
ling on fashion shows," said
Attely Craig, a spokesman for
Gill.
A cheek of various other
cities showed the demand for
look-alike models less wide
spread than demand for the
Kennedy bob at beauty shops.
Hair Style Copied
The Helena Rubinstein
salon in Washington reported
customer requests for Mrs.
Kennedy's hair style began
during the campaign. '
In Boston fashion leaders
agreed that the Kennedy
"look" would be a major
trend, with the haircut the
first to be copied.
. "About 30 per cent of our
customers are asking tor the
Kennedy coiffure," said Paul
Edwards, a San Francisco hair
dresser. "We have had a big
increase In the last 10 days."

ssiiifi
On the front page of The Mail Tribune Thursday there
was a story about a group of citizens meeting to discuss the
possibility of building a stadium in Medford. The story quoted
one of the group as saying that the Jackson county court
indicated "that a stadium is a possibility if enough people
want it.
If the members of the court would like to hear from
people who want a stadium, perhaps they would also like
to hear from citizens who don't want a stadium. Potpourri is
one. Or maybe we should say we don't want public money
spent on a stadium until money has been spent on buildings
and projects which we consider more important.
School rooms, for instance. Some of our teacher friends
tell us about classes being held in the corners of gymnasiums,
or in other make-shift quarters. If Jackson county doesn't
have enough money to build sufficient classrooms for the
children to attend school, then it doesn't have enough money
for a stadium.
How about a much-needed nursing home to care for
the aged? About a year or so ago this reporter accompanied
the members of the county court on a tour of nursing homes
Some are adequate some are definitely not. We learned
from welfare workers that the county is really in need of
larger, newer, more modern quarters where the aged can
be cared for under safe and comfortable circumstances. If
there is not enough money in Jackson county to adequately
care for the aged, then there is not enough for a stadium.
How about an auditorium where concerts, plays and lec
tures could be given? Last Monday night several hundred
members and guests of Jackson County Civic Music associa
tion went to Hedrick Junior High school to watch a per
formance by the Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo. Now, Hedrick
High school auditorium is also the school gymnasium. It prob
ably is a fine gymnasium, but it's- a miserable excuse for an
auditorium.
The patrons last Monday night had to choose between
taking a chair on the floor, from where it was difficult if
not impossible to see the performers, or sitting in the bleach
ers. The auditorium at Medford High school has a sloping
floor, but the stage is too small for many productions, and
events, including a dance troupe or a large symphony orches
tra. The stage at Hedrick school is large, but the acoustics
in the gymnasium are frightful.
So, this citizen and reporter believes that if Medford and
Jackson county cannot afford an adequate civic auditorium
it cannot afford a stadium.
And it won't do a bit of good to tell us how many more
thousands are interested in sports than in music or drama or
lectures. Roy Harris, writing in International Musician in
March, 1959, reported that there are more than a thousand
symphony orchestras in the United States, and that citizens
of this nation spend more money every year on music to
say nothing of the theater or on lecture' programs, than on
sports.
An article in the Wall Street Journal several months ago
reported that in 1959 there were 700 groups in the United
States producing opera having grown to that number from
275 such groups in but five years.
We believe that first things come first, and that a stadium
should not be considered until we meet our schools' class
room needs, until we have proper nursing homes or hospitals
for the aged and until we have an adequate civic auditorium.
