(UPI) Men's Clothing Changes Predicted by Atlantic City, N.J. - IUP1I Tuck in. the waist line, men, there's a one-button jacket in the Immediate future. The International Associa tion of Clothing Designers, closing ils 105th semi-annual meeting' today, broke the word for three -button and two-button males. The "American Envoy Mod el'1 is on the way, according to Jerome Hoffman of Balti more, association vice presi dent, and it's termed the fore runner of a new trend in men's clothing style, The American Envoy calls for a one-button square-shouldered jacket, fitted to curve in at the waist and out at the hips. The trousers will be plain front with one quarter top pockets and plain bottoms instead of cuffs recommended. Designers from the -United States, Colombia, Chile, Eng land, Canada and Australia were told that the American Envoy will be known by its French simplicity of line and style effect, as evident by the neat, double piped pockets and the plain, unvented back. It is recognized immediate ly by the one-button closure, the 200 members on hand were told. The new model will be somewhat shorter than the traditional Ambassador and American natural model, al though it will cover the hips well because of its proportion ed lines to keep the effect of added height. Members were told the use of thre buttons continues to be overwhelming, but there now is a trend to two buttons. Three buttons still hold the s Ix . 3 I Association fort and male form, the associ ation said. On the subject of formal at tire, the association said the main body silhouette of other types of men's clothing is still retained, but an increased use of novel braid effect adds "new excitement" to formal wear.

The use of fancy dress waistcoats to replace the cum merbund is increasing, and the full dress and cutaway are gaining more favor than in re cent years, the association re ported.

In the project lesson "Se lection and Use of Home Ac cessories" given by Mrs. Hen- rv Head and Mrs. Vernon Fowler, it was emphasized that accessories are to a room what seasoning is to food. "They give that finishing touch of charm, individuality and vitality," it was said. Olh er parts of the lesson included purpose ot accessories where they stressed that an acces sory should be chosen for its usefulness if it is to be prac tical, and always for its beau ty. Such articles should har monize with the entire room in color and design each should be suited to the place it occupies and be in harmony with Ihe other furnishings. In arranging the accessories in your home, the main things to be considered are balance scale and center of interest the women noted. This final meeting of the year was held at the home of Mrs. Howard Piete on Thompson creek with M r s. Lorsung acting as co-hostess. OR MORE! - CLEAN Cleaning With MINIMUM ORDER $1.90 Spotting Onlyl MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON ago. In 1940, each person ate 1,551 pounds of food, com pared with 1,465 pounds in 1960. The shift in eating habits has been the most striking change over the past two decades, Mrs. Horrell points out. In the case of meat and potatoes, per capita consump tion has gone different ways. In 1940, the nation ate 144 pounds of meat per person, including fish and poultry. By 1960, this had increased to 179 pounds per person. At the same time, potato con sumption declined from the 1940 level of 136 pounds per person to only 108 pounds in 1960. Each American also eats about 50 pounds less flour and cereal products now than be fore, but consumption is about the same for coffee, tea, cocoa, sugar and syrup, Mrs. Horrell states. Consumption of pro cessed fruits and vegetables has Increased, with fewer being eaten in fresh form. Each person, on the average, uses 10 per cent more milk and 5 per cent more eggs now. Incomes in the past 20 years has grown faster than food bills. Total food expen ditures per person climbed from $126 in 1940 to $392 in 1961, with per capita dispos able income increasing from $576 to $1,987 in the same time. This means that Ameri cans spent less than 20 per cent of their disposable in come for food in 1961, com pared with 22 per cent in 1940, Mrs. Horrell said. Food supplies will continue large tills year, but there may be some give and take as to type, she continued. About the same or larger amounts of red meat are expected, but fewer broilers and turkeys. Egg supplies should be about the same, but there may be more milk. The shopper may find fewer fresh vegetables and potatoes on the market, but more fats and oils. Supplies of cereals and most other foods will continue to be plentiful. Couple Gives Tips About Seattle Fair Mr. and Mrs. Wilbur A. Arnold, 1011 Reddy avenue, have returned home after a vacation trip north during which they visited the Cen tury 21 exposition at Seattle. They were guests of relatives and friends in Portland, Van couver, Tacoma and Seattle. In Seattle the Arnolds heard a concert by the Philadelphia orchestra, directed by Eugene Ormondy, in the new Seattle Opera house newly opened for the World Fair. Musici ans, patrons and critics have all praised the new building for its beauty and fine engin eering, they report. Persons holding tickets for programs in the Opera house are not required to pay the grounds entrance fee, they learned. The Medford couple return ed witi; considerable informa tion which they believe will be interesting to others plan ning to attend the fair. It Is not known generally that one of the elevators in the Space Needle is for the use of those who wish to see the view from the Needle, but do not wish to use the dining room. Lines for this accommodation are much shorter than those waiting to use the dining room, they report. The Arn olds waited but about 15 min utes. Also, the Arnolds were in terested to learn that if Fair visitors wish to leave the grounds and return the same day, they may do so without paying the second admission. Attendants "stamp" the wrist of each person with the date, and this suffices for the sec ond entry that day. It is also suggested that those not able to spend time to visit all three sections of the Science building, enter for (lie second or third sec tions. Long lines are to be found constantly at the main entrance, but many persons leave after viewing the first section and the size of the crowd is much smaller for the second and third sections, thrv learned. The Arnolds found the Fine Art displays one of the most interesting of all the Fair offers, and also enjoyed water skiing demonstrations. They report that considering what the exposition offers, prices are not too high. Returns Wonder-Mrs Pat Bales has returned to v"ondrr and is living on the Hal Moore ranch.
