Ships Said Sen
Expensive, Lik
By GAY PAULEY
UPI Women's Editor
St. Thomas, Virgin Islands
IUPII A ship, said the captain,
is referred to as a "she" be-
sr .....aw cause it has
acteristics of
a woman.
"She is sen
sitive," said
Capt. G u e n-
thcr Roessing
"Some times
she docs what
no one expect-
oy Pauley ed her to do.
"And most of all, she is
expensive."
Roessing is commander of
a ship which during the sum

Colored Shirts
Italian Trend;
Designs Bold
United Press International
Darkpr cravats anH colored
shirts will be in vogue for
fashionable gentlemen next
fall. This is a European trend
heading for American shores.
What s seen, through the per
iscope, is neckwear largely
dark in background with a
splattering of color for effect.
And the colored shirts are
mostly solid shades. But some
have small neat patterns.
Italian trends influence
you? Then watch for colored
silks, fuzzy mohairs, nubby
tcxturcd tweeds and velvet
upholstery materials. Such
were seen at a recent Wash
ington exhibition of Italian
fabrics. Imaginative design
and bold color sense are the
marks most often seen among
the collection from Italian fab
ric artists.
The heady look for spring
is sea-worthy. It's strictly the
sailor look, looming large.
Hats suitable for sailing are
designed to be worn straddled
head-on or tipped to one side.
The toppings of highly tex
tured straws are decked with
ribbon.
Sliding along at top speed
are longer tunic length belted
parkas and tow coats meant
for the ski set. Interest in nov
elty fabrics considered worthy
of the snowy hills is indicated
by the use of printed and solid
corduroy, wool tapestries and
jacquard weaves on cotton
duck. And reinforcing the out
look for. a bright ski season
are high colors shown In both
parkas and stretch pants.
Two generations ago, it was
strictly pink' for girl babies
and nothing but blue for the
boys. But spring, 1961, upsets
the traditional buggy. Fashions
for toddlers run the gamut of
tones from orchid and yellow
to bittersweet for girls ami
willow green to red or brown
for boys.
Last Meeting
Of Hoover PTA
Said Unusual
The lost meeting of Hoover
Parent Teacher , association
was unusual in that more men
than women were in attend
ance. ' , "
Lee Ragsdale spoke' - on
"Physical Education In the
Medford Schools",' and sttow
ed slides - on the-study of
growth development of the
grade school child; This pro
gram is now in its sixth year
and is used to determine the
affects of athletics in the
grade school. The rest of the
nation and several foreign
countries have taken a keen
interest in this study that is
sponsored by the University
of Oregon physical education
department, he said.
In recognition of Founders'
day, the . PTA presented the
school with a plaque listing
the past presidents. The presi
dent, Mrs. A. J. Johannson,
introduced the past presidents
of the Hoover unit; they are
Mrs. Emerson Anderson, and
Mrs. Richard Knoll.
Appointed and elected to
serve on the nomination com
mfttcc were Mrs. Ray Menckc,
chairman, appointed by the
executive board; and Mrs. P.
F. Braincrd and Mrs. Gerald
Gastincau, elected by the
membership. Roy Gilbertson,
principal, is automatically a
member of this committee.
Mrs. Jerry McDougall, leg
islation chairman, gave a
brief resume on bills current
ly in the Oregon Legislature
that have to do with educa
tion. Opening flag ceremonies
and the pledge, of allegiance
were led by Cub "Scout Dn 3.
Fathers attending this meet

ned for them received double

United States and Europe. But
during the winter months,
the passenger list is trimmed
to about half of capacity and
the ship makes a series of
luxury cruises into the West
Indies and touches on South
America.
It would seem a sufficient
ly demanding job for a cap
tain to "boss a woman" all
32,335 tons of her. But in
talking with Roessing, you
find that running the ship and
a crew of nearly 600 is only
part of a captain's job.
He also is the personal
representative of his line in
relations with travelers. He
must mingle, .like a good host,
on deck, in the dining room,
at ship's parties, and must
also preside at a few gather
ings of his own.
"A ship's captain has to
slice himself into two pieces,"
said Roessing, a genial man in
his late SOs. "On an Atlantic
crossing, about 75 per cent of
him goes to the ship, the
other 25 per cent to the pas
sengers.
"On a cruise, the division
is 50-50."
"But," he added after a mo
ment, "the ship and safety of
the passengers always takes
consideration over socializ
ing." Passengers In a cruise are
more demanding than those
on Atlantic crossings, he said.
"On a cruise, you have 650
persons who want a gay time,
want to arrive at port of call
exactly on time, want time
then to shop, and expect sun
shine every day," he said.
If they re a couple, they
w,ant the ship's personnel to
make sure they meet other
congenial couples. If they're
single, they expect to meet
other single people. The cap
tain didn't want to talk,
though, about his abilities as
a matchmaker.
. There is rarely a dull voy
age, he said. In his 40' years at
sea, currently as captain of
North German Lloyd's "TS
Bremen," Roessing has coped
with stowaways, maternity
cases and even a dog tempor
arily without a country
which traveled , with the
ship for four round trips until
his owner finally got the ne
cessary entry papers.,
