Chamber Music Players Are Modern Wandering Minstrels By GAY PAULEY UPI Women's Editor New York-dlPD-Strlng alone with men and I'll tell you about a modern version o the oldtime wandering ministrels. There are approximately 4,000 musi cians in the United States and another 550 In 46 oth er countries who are band ed together in to an informal org anlzation called the Am- Gay Pauley atcur Cham ber Music Players. 1 Their whole purpose: To make classical music togeth er anytime the mood hits, whether they're at home or traveling. What makes the new string and wind instrument and pi ano players different from their minstrel ancestors is that they are neither professional musicians, except in rare cases, nor itinerant rovers. They're more apt to be travel ing men in gray flannel suits, entire families, or students on vacation in unfamiliar ter ritory.

California Booklet Instructs On Knitting A revived interest in knit ting, fostered by Oregon's younger generation, has brought forth new simplified knitting instruction from the state 4-H Club office at Ore gon State college. Miss Ruth Brasher, state ex tension 4-H agent and project leader, thinks this new inter est in knitting probably stems from increased popularity of knit ready-mades, improve ment in yarns, and youth's desire to create something use ful. - To meet the demand of this "new crop" of knitters, a new bulletin "4-H Knitting" is of fered to youths who want to enroll ii a 4-H knitting club. Beginning club members learn to get the feel of differ ent yarns and needles before they learn to bind and cast stitches - the first steps in making their own knitted gar ments. With practice, they are able to make simple garments, tasseled caps, slippers and jackets. After a couple years experience, they advance to more difficult garments-jackets, knitted dresses, ski sweat ers; and coats. The original 4-H knitting project was revised last year by 4-H advisors Mrs. Ruth Nyberg, Salem; Mrs. Paul Johnson, Oswego; Janet Bish op, Portland; Hildegarde Streufert, OSC extension clothing specialist; and Miss Brasher. Club leaders around the state were also consulted, Miss Brasher noted. Knitting is the fastest grow ing 4-H home economics cloth ing project. It has attracted about 2,700 youngsters into 4-H knitting clubs, three times as many as in clubs 10 years ago. In addition to learning knitting skills, youths learn to read commercial patterns, create their .own designs, un derstand basic art principles of color and design, groom ing, and buymanship. Learn ing to work together in their club organization is another major gain the 9 to 12 year olds experience, Miss Brasher said. 1 Auxiliary Honors District President Illinois Valley Mrs. Gil bert Clayton, Cave Junction, was honored guest at the last meeting of the American Le gion Women's auxiliary, held in the American Legion hall.

Cot ovar thirty Upgrading of Quality To Come in Appliances Corvallis - A general up grading of quality and more worksavlng features will ap pear in household equipment offerings in the months ahead, says an, Oregon State college extension home management specialist. Miss Bernice Strawn re ports that prices on refriger ators, laundry equipment, and television have remained steady or lowered slightly since 1947-49. They're "bar' gains" in terms of what 1961's dollar buys) she notes. Shoppers cannot depend on prices to stay down indefinite ly because total manufactur ing costs on these items are reported to have been reduced to less than 10 per cent, and steel prices and factory wages have increased, she continues. Prices on many household appliances have not risen as rapidly as costs of other major living items. Using 1947-49 as a base period, Miss Strawn notes that automobiles, tires, housing, medical care, trans portation and food have added to cost-of-living increase. In contrast, prices of refrigera tors and laundry equipment have dropped below the 1947 49 level. Prices on electric ranges are about the same when compared with the base period. Dishwashers, dehumidifiers and room air conditioners are expected to show greatest growth among major appli ances in the next few years, the OSC specialist reports.

Shoppers will see more va riety in built-in ranges, both gas and electric. A new small built-in with a low oven which takes less kitchen space is on the market. Free standing ranges that look "built-in" with single or double high ovens are also available. More built-ins have removable oven doors for easier cleaning. Floor polishers and scrub bers are other items that are rapidly becoming a part of more households, the special ist notes. Improvements have been noticeable among many items television, electric ranges, some vacuum cleaners, refrigerator-freezer combinations, and automatic washers. The standard table televi sion set 10 years ago was heavy and cumbersome to move for cleaning, says Miss Strawn. Complicated to tune, it had a 16-inch picture tube, and retailed for about $275. The 1961 table model, the same brand, is light, slim and a space saver. It has circuit improvements, is easily tuned, has a 23-inch tube and retails for about $220, $55 less than its 1950 counterpart. Experts estimate that about half of today's refrigerator sales are made up of combi nation refrigerator - freezers.
