The hair-rasing conclusion that business curves and hair styles react similarly comes from researchers at the Helene Curtis Guild of Profes- j oricmal women. sionai Beauticians, inicago War and the rally in the economy, came a revolution in coiffures high, decorative, puffy, often many-curled crea tions loosely patterened after the ceremonial coiffures of Summer visitors in the Rogue valley- this year include four young Englishmen, all students at Cambridge univer sity, Cambridge, England.

Central Point, (Kenn Knackstedt photo) Authentic Shakespearean Foods Served at Mermaid By JEANNE LESEM Strat ford, Conn. - IUPH -Modern Americans have ro bust Shakespearean appetites lor meat and desserts. But we stop short of one custom of Ihe area - using perfume in gredients like musk and cm bergis to flavor food. Historians said Elizabeth Hie "enormous quantities of meat," and that the play wright and his contemporaries were "especially fond of the Mermaid Tavern's famous fish dinners." This London tavern became famous as a meeting place for the "Noble Sire naicks," a fraternal group formed by Sir Walter Raleigh with William Shakespeare and other leading literary figures. The Mermaid, at Bread street near the Cheapside dis trict, has a namesake here, a 35 - minute drive from the American Shakespeare Festi val theatre. The tavern, an English pub, and a cafe-nightclub are in the Stratford Mo tor inn, a luxury motel. . Has Table Forks The new tavern, attractive ly decorated in modified Eng lish style, has many refine ments that early taverns lack ed. They include china instead of wooden plates or plate-size slices of bread, and table forks, which were so little known in Shakespeare's Eng land that fork users were ridi culed in plays. In those days, a full meal called the "tavern ordinary" cost sixpence, worth about seven cents today. Many foods familiar now were common to the "ordinary," including fresh and salt water fish, oys ters, game, fruit and vegetables. Elizabethan foods on the new tavern's menus include pheasant, quail, venison, jug ged hare, fresh fish and sea food, beefsteak, roast , beef, kippers and beefsteak, kidney and oyster pie. Beefsteak is a breakfast item, as it was for Queen Elizabeth I. Royal accounts signed by her say her 6 a.m. meals often consisted of beef steak, beer, wine, bread, but ter, and meat and game stews. A popular Elizabethan vege table, the artichoke, is sau- teed with breast of turkey for the Mermaid Tavern's parfait dinner, and artichoke hearts often are used to garnish lunch buffets, with fillings of tiny mushrooms, pimientos and chopped pickles. But anyone , who wants boar's head, a traditional Christmas meat of old .Eng land, must order it in advance for a party or wait for the holiday. It was withdrawn from the regular menu after the first couple of months, be cause of small demand, said the management. Elitabethan Appetiser The Elizabethans' taste for unusual flavor combinations finds modern expression in of tiny shrimp and apples, an appetizer. Place a little shredded let tuce in bottom of 6 parfait glasses. Mix together ,i cup of peeled, cored and diced ap ple and 90 cooked, cleaned, chilled tiny shrimp, or 1V4 pounds. Divide among glasses. Pour over a sauce made hy blending smoothly together Vi cup of mayonnaise, cup of catsup, K' cup of heavy cream, juice of 4 lemon, i tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce, ii teaspoon each of liquid red pepper sauce and angostura bitters. i table spoon of horseradish and salt and white pepper to taste. Based on hair style trends for winter - smooth over a network of back combed, raised fullness the research ers forecast a stabilized mar ket for 19B2-63. The forecast j indicates the stock market i won't rally to the heights it reached in December, 1061, when coiffures reached a peak ot bouffantry. Nor will it plunge to the depths of 1333, when the cofis were painfully close to the head. The '62-63 market forecast will hold, if the correlations of the past continue, said Arthur Caplin, director of marketing for Helene Cur tis, in a telephone Interview. Indicates Decline We pointed out to Caplin that around New York, the style-setting models and a lot of other chic women have de serted the bouffant "do" for hair almost plastered to the head. This would indicate a declining stock market. Yes, if the flat coiffures caught on nationwide, said Caplin. But indications are they will not. "We see a strong" Spanish influence," said Caplin, "with still plenty of fullness and fluff to the hair." The researchers' study of curves and curls begins at the turn of the century and shows hair styles through panics, recissions, the great depres sion, and good times. Start with the panic of 1807-1908, set off by failure of the Knickerbocker Trust Co. of New York. Hair went to a new low from the plush and piled-high luxuriance of After World War I, business and hair curves remained on the upbeat until 1921 and a sharp decline. Hair began to be worn straight or softly waved, shingled in the back and partly covering the ears. Two years later, the na tional income rose to $69 S billion dollars, after. a 1921 low of $51.7 billion, and coif fures became a mop of per manented curls. Silhouettes were billowy, sometimes tamed with a "head ache band", and the vamp hairdo became the blue chip stock in a girl s beauty port folio. Short Bob Minor market fluctuations in 1926 were foreshadowed by a short bob, softened with finger waves. With the stock market crash of 1929, varia tions of the short, severely na tural coif reappeared. As busi ness improved gradually dur ing the 1930 s, hair styles made gains toward the long er, softer, more feminine look. But from 1933 to 1936, hair was styled so close to the head the line of tha skull was obvious. Came the 1940'g, and World War II, and hair styles went up. They were elaborate combinations of curls, pins and rolls. Shoulder length bobs with high, puffy, up swept pompadours reflected gains In the wartime econ omy. When the market fell tem porarily in 1948 and again in 1949, hair styles true to form onre again became short. In 1949 came the short- r c - . j I r w rl T9O0 W New York Tha statt of the conomy and tha itata of a woman' hair hava much in common. They go up or down to gether.

The more na tural fullness of the 1962-63 coiffure is the sign of a stabilised market for that period, according to the experts, (UPI) est coif of all, the "poodle." In 1953, the national in come jumped to a high of $302 billion dollars. .and the first of the modern bouffants appeared. The style was full est at the sides, with little or no back-combing at the crown. Soon after came the bubble coif, with variations on the full, round, richly-padded showing throughout the 1950 s. As the stock market reach ed a new high in 1961, so did coiffures - higher, wider and more elegant than in many a year as represented with the 1 beehive and the full-blown cap cut. Today, with slock prices down a'ler soaring, hair styles are showing more natural-looking trends.

Theory Given On Non-Reading Detroit fUPIt A new theory on "Why Johnny Can't Read" will be put to the test at Wayne's Hoover school here next fall. The theory? Grade school children ig nore their studies to watch what's going on outside, par ticularly in the ultra-modern (schools where the emphasis on ligh tis embodied in de signs which feature wide ex panses of windows. The windows at Hoover school are being replaced by opaque panels this summer. Frinrators will watch close ly to learn whether young sters learp. faster when they can't look oulsirie. F.Huralion Facilities Labora lories. Inc., the Ford Founda tion and the University of Michigan are financing the study. Co-ordinalor is Prof. C Theodore Larson of the Uni versitv of Michigan. The school s 120 pupils i were tested before summer vacation to determine their chievemenl level. At the end of the next school ye.ir, a similar test will determine what effect the nine months without windows has had.
