"If I lived where you do," said the motor court owner Sunday night as he looked at our reg istration card, "I'd never leave home." We agreed that south ern Oregon is indeed a wonderful place to live, and the Californian said that on his vacation he planned to take his cabin cruiser, drive north and embark on the Columbia river for a fishing excursion. "That's the life," he said. When we inquired if it might rain during the night he gave a scoffing sound and said "If it rains, I'm going out on the lawn and Just let it rain on me. It never rains here. We sure could do with a little water." So we told him that was another thing about Oregon we did have rain almost more that particular day than was comfortable. For when the two of us started out early (5:30 a.m., to be precise) it was raining in Medford, and it rained and snowed practically without let up for about 300 hundred miles. To make matters worse, the wind blew half-a-gale, driving the water and wet snow and dirty spray off the big trucks and' cars right "Doll T. .'. However, we were rather started over the Siskiyous, deeper and slicker, Potpourri pickup truck In front of us came to a dead stop three or four times. So did the sedan in front of the pickup and farther up the highway another pickup was in trouble, too. "If we don t have to stop, we'll make it,"' said Pappy. "But if we ever stop, we might never get going again."- However, we made it over the summit and down the other side without one slip from the little Triumph. Perhaps it was because the Triumph is well designed and balanced, perhaps it was because the Doll is wearing new Pirelli Cinturato tires said to be fine for stick ing to slick roads, or because Pappy is an excellent, ex perienced and intelligent driver or a little of all three. However, both of us sighed safely' over all the mountains ding and headed for Sacramento.. Even though the rain and wind continued, it was much better than conditions over the mountains. .'. We stopped at' a roadside some fruit, and the cold wind the transaction was completed. weather had been too cold and the olive crop would be short depressed and worried. The cold and wind made and look for roadside flowers was Interesting to watch the changing scenery and vegeta tion. At first almost nothing was in bloom along the high way part of the manzanlta bushes were in flower and we saw one or two slopes with lupine already blossoming but mostly the roadsides were green, and that was all. As the miles flew by there was more color in the gardens and fields. In Chlco we'saw camellias, iris and tulip flowering magnolias in bloom and in Roseville we saw one rose garden with a few red blossoms already out. About Roseville we began acres, abloom with a small yellow flower which was strange to both of us. The pretty flowers continued for a long dis tance, and helped a lot to brighten the day. The bright yellow fields the wrecking yards filled with clusters of roadside shops and If we could, we d make it impossible for anyone to locate a junk or wrecking yard alongside a main highway. It's an unlovely and depressing sight. Wish we had a penny for every sign we passed today the sign business in these United States Is staggering. There are signs reading "turn here, stop here, go left, go right, slow down, stop, caution, danger, watch out for deer" and a hundred other traffic warnings. Then there are the adver tising signs, thousands upon thousands. A few of these are amusing, In a spite of being garish and spoiling the scenery. We passed a "washeteria" with a sign which read "The Washing Well" and In spite of the fact that we wish it was against the law to advertise gambling, some of these signs have a comic air which tend to lighten the day for a traveler. Later in the day when we were speeding along the free way south of Sacramento, the road names and designations entertained the two of us. We read our own name several times ."Olive road, avenue and lane," etc., noticed an Applcgate road, Dakota avenue, the same as we have in Med ford and even Nill road the same name as that of a Med ford family. We laughed out loud over "Sandy Mush road" and remembered to tell Pappy about the name Pal Peg found In the New York Times in a wedding story. The wedding sounded extremely Imposing except for the address of the bride's family It was "Skunk's Misery road." . We covered more than 600 miles today, much of it on California freeways and tomorrow we're going to abandon the freeway as soon as possible and take off across the desert. We find freeway traveling nerve-wracking at times and boring most of the time. The sight of thousands upon thousands of people driving madly along at 70, 80, 90 and even a hundred miles an hour in some sort of a desperate race against time isn't very refreshing for a spring vacation. It keeps bringing stories about horrible highway acci dents to mind, and we can't help wondering, after today, what keeps the accident rate as low as it is. And by the way, why do reporters always write "the victim was driving a small foreign car." If the victim were driving a large American car, said reporters never bother to put that label In the story. O.S. Fancy Datas New York-IUPD-Date orange salad Is almost a meal in it self.

Easter Egg Stain Can Be Removed, Launderers Say , It's a good Idea to be fore warned about the stain catas trophe that can befall clothes and table coverings over the' Easter holidays . . . and be forearmed with the best meth ods of stain removal. If Easter egg dye should be spilled on a washable garment it is likely, according to the American Home Laundry M a n u facturers' association, that the detergent and bleach regularly used in the auto matic will remove the stain. If a spot still remains, the AHLMA suggests soaking the garment in bleach, and then laundering again to make cer tain that no bleach remains in the fabric. Follow bleach in structions carefully. (Remem ber that bleaches which con tain chlorine should not be used on nylon, wool, silk, Vicara or resin-trealed crease- resistant cottons. Chlorine lends to yellow these fabrics.) Chocolate candy or ice cream stains stand a 1 good chance of making an appear ance when the Easter Bunny arrives ... or shortly there after. These stains should be treated immediately, as they are difficult to remove when dry. First, sponge the spot with lukewarm to cool water. (Place fabric STAIN - SIDE down on an absorbent male- rial, and work from the back of the fabric.) If stain still re mains, soak the washable gar ment in carbon tetrachloride to remove, the grease or fat. Rinse thoroughly, then run it through your washer and dryer. The cardinal rule of stain removal is to take that "stitch in time." Fresh stains are al ways much more easily re moved. It s the old stains that are stubborn and create the problem.

Rosina Lhevin New Career in By GAY PAULEY UPI Women'i Editor New York-IUPD - Mrs. Ro sina Lhevinne sees nothing remarkably about having a concert career at the "young" age of 81. "I never really stopped," said the grand dame of the grand piano. "I just dropped out as a solo performer be cause I did not believe in pur suing the same career as that of my husband. But I've done chamber music concerts . . . kept on teaching." Madame Lhevinne, who celebrates her 81st birthday today, is the widow of Josef Lhebinne, the Russian-born pi anist who was considered one of the world's great artists. Only One Career - His wife's unusual accom plishments have been many although she regards them most modestly. Shortly after her marriage, she decided that "careers for us both did not seem compatible, so I con centrated my interest in his career. I never regretted my decision ... I feel like I have played thousands of concerts. My husband and I discussed every performance." She has taught for 35 years at the famous Juilliard School of Music her husband also taught there until his death in 1944. Van Cliburn, John Browning and Daniel Pollack each of whom has won inter national honors in piano com petition have been among her pupils at Juilliard. For the last six years she has spent her summers per forming and teaching at the Aspen, Colo., Music Festivals. She taught piano and lectured on music for 10 summers at the Los Angeles Conservatory of Music. In all those years, she has continued to teach privately. Late Solo Earlier this month, Madame Lhevinne soloed with the Na tional Orchestral association in New York, and the critics were ecstatic in their reviews,. One of her next appearances will be with Leonard Rose, the cellist, in New York April 24, at a benefit for the Dimitri Mitropoulos Piano competi tion. She also will lecture and conduct master piano classes June 19 at the University of California at Berkeley. Then, back she goes to Aspen for her seventh season with the festival. 1 Km j Smart Bunnies Know,;'. Main and Bartlett Streets ne Begins Eighties Madame Lhevinne, born of parents who played the piano but not professionally, was studying at the Conservatory of Music in her native Mos cow by the time she was six. When her regular teacher fell ill, the conservatory named its star pupil to continue in structing her. His name: Josef Lhevinne. He was 14 at the time. Married When 18 She recalled in an inter view at her apartment a four-minute walk from the Juilliard that they were married when she was 18 "seven days after I finished at the conservatory." Lhevin ne already was an established artist. For several seasons, they alternated tours of llurope and the United States with her often sharing the concert program as duo-pianist. In 1919, the couple moved to the United States permanently. Madame Lhevinne is a tiny woman with wavy gray hair and merry brown eyes. Her conversation indicates she has no idea of retiring "I am 81 years young," she said. "I think what keeps me young is being always with young peo ple."
