6 A WEDNESDAY. JULY H. 1962 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFOHD, OREGON Social Events Women's News Fall, Winter Gowns Stagger Average Budge'rs New York - HIP! - Opulence by the sere and price tags to stanEer the average budget dominate fall and winter fashions for evening. Opulence takes off in three directions - In the plethora of fur trim, in the lushnons of fabrics themselves, or in the addition of jeweling which certainly must be keeping a lot of seamstresses in jobs sewing on bugle beads, jet, seed pearls or other irides cence. As for price tags, certainly the woman can shop around and find a handsome evening dress within her budget. But if she wants to splurge on a grand occasion cown the price tag can go as high as $3,000 for a floor length formal, Jewel encrusted from neck line to hem. Three Reasons Herbert Sondhcim, a manu facturer whose price lags left this reporter less aghast than some of the other quotes heard in the New York gar ment industry, explained I there are three reasons for some of the fantastic prices. One is the customer's de sire for luxury fabrics, the second is the workmanship which goes into the fabric itself - some of the jeweled materials cost $25, $35 and $40 per yard because of the handwork involved, and third, the workmanship in the garment itself. Sondheim said that manu facturers no longer just stitch pieces of fabric together; ever since the days of the late Christian Dior, designer, clothes like works of archi tecture have been construct ed. A jeweled dress, for In stance, is built from the in side layer by layer. There may be as many as four - the outside "skin" of jewels, In turn set on a base of crepe, in turn lined, and finally lined again with a layer of marquisette. 4 ,mm-mimmf "TT , i ' ' '- ',Ut iS I, " iC - " ' ' v "J I"' - ' '1 i' I UMn.ten nil af atnai I aiinili firjlWVnl (In -3 Mrs. Ingeborg OUen, Yesled, Norway, was recently re united with her brother.

Daughter Arrives Ashland Visiting at the home of Mrs. Ruth Morris, 180 Central avenue, are her daughter, Mrs. James Reimers and granddaughter Suzanne, San Jose, Calif. By SHELLEY SINGER United Press International Chicago -Ml- If today's husband and father washes dishes or diapers baby, it's not because he's henpecked or less masculine than his ances tors. Often, such homebody ac tivities are a therapeutic re lease from business pressures, a new study shows. If his wife works, it could be an econom ic necessity. Or he might simply enjoy lending a hand around the house. Researchers for a toiletries firm say mosl people think father still wears the pants in the family. Research conducted in At lanta, Houston and Chicago examined the slate of Ameri can masculinity in light of woman s growing indepen dence. Interviews with both men and women revealed new multi-level delinition nf the manly ideal. The researchers noled these twentiefh century criteria for taking the measure nf a man: His abilily to make, con serve and amass money; the cost, style and age of his ear; how much hair he has or has not; his size and strength; Ihe job he holds and how success ful lie is at it; what spnrls he likes: how manv clubs he be longs to; his aggressiveness 8 m ' y. and reliability. Women rated the true worth of n man hy how well he provides for the home and family. But men and women alike considered the fiuvrlv man to be more truly mascu line than the husband who spurns home life. The researchers detected four main masculine ideals: the athlete, the mnn-about-town, the executive hero, and the "old soldier." Forty-five per cent of those polled said the dynamic hero executive is today's ideal manly type. President John F. Kennedy was nominated as a leading representative. The man-about-town cap- lured the Imagination of 22 per cent of the respondent Actors Gregory Peck and Cary Grant were cited as typical examples of this type. The remaining 32 per cent were divided equally between the athlete and the "old soldier." Athletes cited in cluded Mickey Mantle, Stan Musial and Arnold Palmer. Older men and women tended In identify wilh the 'old soldier" who disnlavs viRor and resourcefulness In either military or public service. In this category: for mer Presidents Dwight P. Eisenhower and Harry S. Truman. n Ashland Ashland - Mrs. Vayne Gu- rane, Portland, is a house guest of her daughter and the W y a 1 1 Ros- bnroughs. 1224 Iowa street.
