Delegates from the Warren Stretch Yarn Now Used For Shoes United Preii International A stretch yarn, similar to flexible fabrics used in under garments and swimwear, now is being used for women's shoes.

Color emphasis in fall suits for males is swinging to blues and browns at the expense of olive. Watch for more nov elty lapel treatments with the notch and peak showing in addtion to the clovcrlcaf now being used. The newest jacket for men looks like a coat and vest In one. But when the coat is re moved, the vest turns out to be a mess Jacket.

"(JJJ'r' Ifl i ' I Women 'Sound Off7 About Design of Automobiles By GAY PAULEY UPI Women's Editor New York -tUPD- Millions of women have traded back seat driving for front-but they're still sounding off. So reports N. Jeanne Wertz, founder and director of the Automotive Council for Wom en. Its purpose is education of woman in the finer points of owning, operating, maintain ing and enjoying the family auto. Miss Wertz estimates that there are 30 million women drivers, that women account for 60 per cent of service sta tion sales, and that there are 7.4 million two-or-more car families, which means 7.4 mil lion feminine chauffeurs, par ticularly in the suburbs. Membership in the council, Co-chairmen of the eighth annual show of the Medford Rose society, held recently at Medford High school cafeteria. were Mrs. O. V. Poe, Phoenix, and Mrs. Arnold Bohnert, Central Point. Mrs. Poe holds one of the 87 arrangements entered in the show; more than 400 horticultural entries were listed. Rose growers from all parts of southern Oregon displayed flowers. bringing back school frocks in good old plaids including tartan and dark border-print plaids. Question; what is a twist shirt? Answer: a pullover with either a pointed tail, fore or nft or a modified jester. The latter has three pointed tails. On July 3 Mrs. Mannie E. Olson will speak on the sub ject, "The Unwanted Fam ily." At a salad luncheon an ob servance will be held observ ing members' birthdays throughout the year. Tables will be decorated to represent each month of the year.

Others who have tried those new products, available under a myriad of trade mimes, have complained about "spotting" and starch sticking to the iron. There are a few tricks io the trade which convert prob lems into perfection, says Ber nice Strawn, extension home management specialist at Ore gon State university. I Items to be starched should be sprayed and ironed a por-1 tion at a lime, using a gently J sweeping motion to apply the1 starch lightly and evenly. Spray starching is not recom mended for large scale iron ing. For instance, curtains and slip-covers should not be spray starched. One of the most important directions in spray starching is to shake t he can thorough ly before using. Hold the can at a 3f to 45 degree angle when spraying. If held hori zontally, it won't be possible to get all the starch from Steimans Visit At Onstad Home A.shland Last week Mr. and Mrs. Louis Steiman of Vallrjo, Calif., arrived here to visit their daughter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Hub ert I. Onstad. 7-5 Indiana street. On Saturday the four drove to Portland on a busi ness trip where Mr. Onstad bought supplies for the Coffee House which will soon be opened in the Ashland Art (lallery, 31 Water street. He also brought back articles for the Senior Craftsman shop opening in t be gallery on today. Mr. and Mrs. Carl l.evcion of Portland returned with the family Wednesday night and continued on to Vallejo for a visit at the Steiman home. They will be Joined this week end by Mrs. Onstad for a wedding. Mrs. Leveton and Mrs. Steiman are sisters.

Mr. Mrs. Jfc'nes Pnnc- , Mrs Koniilii PrWilur the bottom of the can when the supply runs low and starch will be wasted. Roll Garment H spotting occurs, it's usu ally caused by the hot iron coming in contact with drop lets of starch not absorbed by the fabric. To avoid spot ting, roll garment loosely, then unroll it after a few seconds. This allows the starch to equalize uniformly throughout the sprayed area. Linen and some blends of man-made fibers are less ab sorbent than cotton and may need to be rolled in this man ner, advises the specialist. Iron "coating" is uaually caused by spraying too heav ily. If the fabric is saturated, the starch may ball up or flake off. If the iron becomes coated, cool it and wipe clean with a damp cloth.

Take Vacation Ashland Mr. and Mrs. Foss Kramer, 332 Hargadine street, returned recently from a vacation trip to Victoria and Vancouver, B.C., and to the exposition In Seattle where they visited with friends for several days. The dowry was originally made up of a trousseau-a col lections of linens and handi work the bride made herself. organized at the beginning of the year, now numbers nearly 10,000, said Miss Wertz. Al though only a fraction of the potential, Miss Wertz said it's a highly vocal fraction judg ing from letters coming into council headquarters. Most Are Complaints Many of the letters praise the automotive industry, but Miss Wertz said the bulk eith er are the "why don't they" type or outright gripes. "When a woman gets into a car, knocks off her hat and ; her skirts ride up, she's more apt to sound off than she is to write about convenience of owning a car, the fun of driv ing, or its pleasing color scheme," she said. j Letters comment on car size, safety, on buying, and on filling station treatment. One woman figured the so lution to some design prob lems lay in Detroit's hiring women engineers. Said another, "If I gained a pound, I wouldn't fit behind the steering wheel." "Where has the running board gone and why don't they bring it back?" asked another member. One writer complained about the auto "well" on some makes, because it "is so hard to clean and uncomfortable to ride with." Ask Less Glass Letters also have comment ed on the amount of glass used - "cinemascope windowi which let too much sun in ( both front and back" said one writer. Said another, "I would feel safe if the windows ' were smaller and there was less glass." J One woman suggested that designers produce a car with ! a special roll-in grocery cart which would do away with i the back-breaking lift in and out of car seat or trunk, j That," she said, "is the kind I of extra I'd like." Miss Wertz said numerous letters are concerned with children's safety. One woman suggested that i someone design a car safe for ' children to stand in, since j most children were deter- i mined to do just that. Another suggested doing away with j "the buttons on doors so chil- j drcn can't open them when j the car is moving." Still another wanted some sort of , safety equipment to make a 1 car "run -proof when little 'drivers' are at the wheel" of J a parked auto. Source of Irritation Car salesmen irritated some writers. "Why don't they treat us like they do when we shop lor refrigerators, stoves and houses?" wrote one. "Help," wrote another, "I am buying a car, or trying to, and am lost in prices, deals, financing and extras." Miss Wertz said one of the most confusing areas to wom en is that of service station or garage. "The worst thing is trying to understand them (service station men)," wrote one wom an. "They talk Greek lo wom en . . ." "Can you help me not feel so dumb and at their mercy?" asked a woman who said she drove from 30,000 to 40,000 miles a year on her job. Miss Wertz said so many letters begin, "I hate to ask a man because he might laugh." "They're right," she said. "Men would probably laugh. Yet if men stopped to think how confused they would be in a beauty shop or dress shop, they would appreciate our dilemma."
