SUNDAY. MAY 20, 1962 MEDFOHD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON Don't believe all the stories and rumors about the Seattle fair. That's the word from Pal Peg who visited the lair last week with her parents. Talcs ot how one cannot find housing, of prices as high as the space needle, and exorbitant parking fees arc not all true, the Hulchinsons discovered. Potpourri asked Peg to relay some of her first hand observations, by way of the typewriter, and here they are. There were no extremely long lines, no parking problem near the entrance, the crowd was not large enouglr to hamper viewing, lunch in the Space Needle cost a minmum of two dollars per person, the motel was wonderful and reasonable, and the weather was beautiful. Yes, it was the Seattle World's fair. We had prepared for the worst and were pleasantly surprised. But this was In May situations may quickly change once school is out The motel reservation had been gotfen through Expo Lodging. The motel operator encouraged driving to the fair's entrance and it proved to be a good idea. The closer to the grounds, the higher the price $2.50 for all day but If you re willing to walk It is cheaper tanner away. A person can see the fair except for traveling up the Space Needle, viewing the art exhibit for only the en trance fee of two dollars. A look at the U. S. Science pavilion the exterior is worth the two dollars. This white structure, consisting of a series of six buildings, Is beautiful viewed from varying angles The view from overhead (as seen from the Space Needle) makes it appear short and squatty while from the ground it soars in numerous arches, not only the five open ones over the outside court, but in the design of the buildings themselves. Multi-level platforms bridge the pool and landscaped areas and the wrought iron railings repeat the arch design. Some 700 persons enter this building every 20 minutes so the waiting is short. The wail at the Space Needle was the longest because the fairgrounds' gates open at 9 a.m. and the Space Needle restaurant at 10 a.m. Once in the restaurant the elevator round trip costs one dollar persons are quickly seated. Along with the menu each diner receives a cardboard wheel with the points of the compass marking 18 different areas which will be viewed in an hour the time required for the restaurant to revolve 360 degrees. The nace is leisurely there is no rushing ot diners and coffee cups are filled over and over. Lunch costs a minimum of two dollars per person and for dinner the price is five dollars minimum per person. For less expensive fare there are the numerous cafes and stands in the Food Circus or the restaurants with interna tional cuisine located throughout the fairgrounds. In the Brazilian pavilion visitors may sample both Bra zilian-grown tea and coffee. The country's male tea, served cold, has a faint taste of licorice. The not coffee is extremely strong and not the blend to which many united stales resi dents are accustomed. It Is regrctable that the shops of the various foreign coun tries do not have a wider selection of medium priced articles. The shops are mainly the Asian countries and much of the merchandise can be purchased in valley stores. Mrs. Leslie Boardman and other musicians at First Meth odist church arc endeavoring to educate the public about more suitable wedding music, a movement we heartily en dorse. At the same lime, a New York milliner known as William J. has been written up extensively in recent months because he said he went to about 50 New York weddings and was appalled at what brides are wearing. Current wedding gowns are "dreadful" according to the milliner. Jlc declared that brides should look beautiful and above everything else, a wedding should have "dignity." He contends that neither the fashionable wedding gowns of Hie present duy, or the hairdos, promote dignity. "We must do awav with the nipped-ln waist, the huge, full fklrt, the massive train - the whole cumbersome dress," said William J, He would replace these with "terrifically simple dresses that make a girl feel exciting."

The new suit designs, in cotton matelasse, floral bro cade, cotton tweed and nov elty weaves, have easy little jackets which take many forms. One of the most fre quently seen: the cropped, above the hipline shape tail ored with a concave front and eased at the back for a look of gentle shaping all around. Narrow, set in sleeves and small, notched collars which stand away from the neck are other important styling de tails. Summer's special afoot: brown patent.

If you're a bride-to-be, re gardless of the 'type wedding you may be planning, what you wear will be of great i im portance. Whether you plan to be married in a cathedral with six bridesmaids or very simply with just your .best friend at your side, take care to select a bridal fashion that's becoming to you and harmonizes with the setting of your wedding. II isn't always easy to find the dress you've dreamed of for your wedding ... in just the right style and fabric of your choice. That's why it is often simpler and more satis factory to make your own bridal gown, or, if you don't sew, have a professional dressmaker do the job. Twicc-blcssed is the bride who chooses a clever con vertible style for her wed ding gown-one that lives on happily ever after as a formal or a cocktail dress. These dual designs convert with the re moval of a jacket or the de taching of a train. Patterns with these extra-dividend fea tures also are available for dresses of the bridal attendants. Choose Cotton A happy choice of fabric for your wedding fashions can be found in the fabulous collection of cottons now available in piece goods de partments, says the National Cotton council. If you've dreamed of float Ing down the aisle in a soft cloud of a dress, make your selection from such gossamer fabrics as cotton chiffon, .( A I : Vi 1 i . i y vv.

' sheer georgette, or crisp cot ton organdy . . . plain or em broidered. T h e y'r e Ideal choices for spring and sum mer weddings. And cotton pique with a three-dimensional weave is another fabric that's particularly appealing for this time of year. For an autumn or winter ceremony, choose from rich collon velveteen, lustrous cot ton satin, or ribbed cotton ottoman. In using these, be sure. to select a pattern with simple lines to dramatize the beauty of the fabric. Traditionally elegant cotton lace is appropriate for wed dings at any time of the year. In choosing a fabric and style, be guided by what's individually suited for you, and appropriate to the type wedding you're planning. Choose a style to highlight and complement your facial features and figure. Short or three-quarter length sleeves arc prettiest for your girls. Red Once Popular Brides in medieval days wore red . . . but today's pre vailing color choice is white. For those who feel that stark white isn't becoming to their particular type of coloring, such off-white shades as egg shell, bridal ivory, and deep cream are available. After selecting the fabric and pattern for your bridal gown, the next step is to decide what type of veil you'll wear. Symbolic of all brides, the veil should be worn at all ceremonies whether for mal or informal. It should blend wilh your bridal gown both in style and color. If you choose a veil of cotton lace, be sure that your gown is simply styled. Bridesmaids' dresses can be made from the same fabric you select for your gown or in a material of similar weight. It's important to choose styles that will go with your wedding gown, and then work within the range of available colors. Usually, brides find the most pleasing effect is achieved by having bridesmaids' dresses in the same color tones in matching styles. The honor attendant may Ihcn wear the same style or a similar design in a har monizing color. For ideas in planning your bridal fashions, check the pat tern department of your local stores for patterns and a new bridal book, "Your Wedding." 11 has a collection of pattern designs for both formal and informal weddings, with in structions for making bridal veils.

The University of Illinois home cconimics department recommends this procedure because the sauce or gravy assures a more airtight pack age and has been shown to protect the meat during freez er storage. ' Package the cooked meat carefully, home economists advise, leaving space at the top of the container for ex pansion during freezing. Transfer the package to the freezer immediately and store it at zero degrees or below.
