6 A. WEDNESDAY. JULY 18. 1962 MEDFOHD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFOHD. OREGON Women's News Social Events Luggage, Wardrobe Tips Given for Boating Guests By GAY PAULEY UPI Womtn'i Editor New York - IUP1) - One way to enjoy a week end on a small boat is to cart along a wardrobe you'd need on the Queen Mary. It's also one way to as sure you'll nol be invited back by t n e owner of the small craft. Yet boat own- Gay Faulty era report the occasional week end guest who shows up in high hceis deadly on the bright work, or varnish, of a boat with ward robe sufficient for two weeks at a resort hotel. "The only place for a suit case is overboard," said Jo seph Choatc. executive secre tary, the National Association of Engine and Boat Manufac turers. Choate owns a 14-foot sailboat and crews on larger ships on charter. Suitcases Art Out "I'd rather see a guest come aboard with his clothes in a paper bag than see a suit case," said Peter Smith, as sistant editor of the Rudder, the nation's oldest boating magazine. Smith sails a 24 foot sloop. Reason for the anti-suilcase attitude of boat owners: Space aboard a small craft is at a premium, a suitcase takes up lots of that space, and it also in rough weather can bounce around a cabin like a lion cub. As boating increases, Hie number of small craft in U.S. waters has grown from 3,710, 000 in 1951 to a current 7,175, 000 says NAEBM, so docs the number of gucsls invited aboard by proud owners. Yet proud owners wish, lust wish, that guests would exor cise some of the same thought fulness they show a host and hostess when invited for a week end someplace other than on the water. At least the owners we talked to agreed on some general sug gestions for the guests who like to be invited back. Safety First About the suitcase. Pack clothes, and keep gear to a ' I i it tit. : " - 1 minimum, in duffel bag. the paper bag that Smith suggest ed, or as John C. Conovcr, a New York public relations ex ecutive, said "even a pillow case." Takes up less space and : rolls with motion of the boat. Conovcr, a sailor since J childhood and owner of a 34-1 foot sloop, Galatea II, said ! safety of everyone aboard is i one of the prime reasons why guests on small craft need some guidance. j Wardrobes for the guests' i should he simple, owners I agree. Adeie Simpson, trie fashion designer, is the "swab down girl" on the Kleda, Adele spelled backwards - a 47-fool cutler which she and husband, Wesley, sail. Her recommended wardrobe for n girl: Duck trousers or Ber mudas; long sleeved shirts be cause sunburn can be danger ous on the water; a warm sweater for the cool evenings at anchor; and above all else, rubber -soled shoes -- "you ought to see what heels or a leather sole can do to the bright work," said Mrs. Simp son. If there is a chance your host will take gucsls ashore for dinner, just check out in advance on plans so you can be prepared wilh a simple cotton dress acceplable in al most every shoreside dining spot. English Guests Leave Valley Mr. and Mrs. Sidney Ran dall, London, England, left the Rogue valley Tuesday after being houseguesls of Mr. and Mrs. Penn Dixon, 3fl28 South Pacific highway.

Thanks to n revolution in the ready to - wear carmcnt business in France, the ordi nary female is becoming a fashion plate, ton. Formerly it was the royalty and rich who set the Paris styles. They bought custom made original designs at de signers' sa totis such as Ral main and Dior. The ordinary housewife or working girl went n the fa mous "little French dressmak er" if she could afford even $30 fur a dress or S50 for a suit. Otherwise she bought badly styled cheap ready-marie clothes m depart ment stores.

This for mer "high style" is available to the budget class because of permanently-pleated artificial fabrics. These skirts usually are worn with a V-neck sweat er and the Chanel-typo locket or pocket watch on a chain. Miss Paris almost always wears fragile-looking pointed toe shoes with high heels. She carries n handbag of soft, shiny leather called a "man nifpiin bag" - big enough to carry her lunch. Instead of a hnt, she fixes her hair in a bouffant "beehive" hairdo, with a leather or fabric head band or little black velvet bow s. The only hat popular now is the checked visor cap worn on the back of the head, as seen in a popular Ftcnch mov ie, ' Jules and Jim."
