The students participating in the program are known as Winant Volunteers. They make the trip at their own expense and work in London, Bristol, Manchester or Liver pool.

The Medford stu dent will return about Sept 5 for a week with his family before returning to Palo Alto There are three Stanford students participating in the program this summer. Frohn mayer first became interested in the volunteer idea through an assistant chaplain at Stan ford. He finds the youth work "extremely interesting" and compares it in some ways to the Peace Corps. At Youth Cub The local student has been working at the Southmcad Youth club in Bristol. The club is designed to give the young people of the neigh borhood a place and facilities to get together In the eve nings and entertain them selves. "My job is to be with these young people in their club and through an exchange of ideas and experiences to broaden their knowledge -and m I n e," according to Frohnmayer. Much of the time is spent just talking and comparing the two different ways of life, he add Much of the time is spent with sports activities and mu sic, the student reports. He has also done some camping this summer. Hollywood movies and television report edly have given the English youngsters a false impression of Americans, he notes. "The inure common place life which Americans live everyday is not tlv type of thing they want to see during their leisure time, so the Eng lishman who watcher our pro grams seldom get a glimpse of the real life of Joe Citi zen," according to Frohn mayer. Is Impressed The American students work with English youths be tween 11 and 21. Frohnmayer recently commented on how impressed he was with the friendliness of everyone he has been working with. Dur ing the summer he has been helping to fix up a new teen age club in Bristol. The youth volunteer pro gram started about 15 years ago when an vicar of All Hallows, near the Tower of London, appealed to a class of students at an American college. He told them of some of the p-oblcms facing those who wished to help the youth of London's war-blitzed East End, particularly that of the shortage of youth club lead ers, lie ended his discussion with a plea for Just one vol- CLEAN U"?Iral,lQLS' ' For Your Convenience 1 Savings-Big Double U.d Washers -e5S-.,Tu LAUNDROMAT "SSTEWAM TUESDAY.

Social Events Household Appliances Said Tourist Favorites By CLAIRE COX United Press International New York -IWU- The Amer ican tourist shops for perfume In France, woolens In Britain, porcelain in West Germany, silver In Denmark and leather in Italy. But what does the foreign traveler buy in the United States? Household appliances, large and small, are much sought by the visitors being lured to this country in the campaign to stimulate tourism In the United States. Purchases range from elec tric clocks and toasters to bulky refrigerators and wash er-dryers. Phonographs, tran sistor radios, electric blankets, electric fans and automatic garbage disposers also are among the items bought by visitors who have heard and read for years about gadgel- mmded America. But the foreign consumer makes a serious mistake if he simply walks into a store and Twirlers Have Many Activities Members of the Twirlers, Medford square dance club, have participated in several out - of - town activities lor square dancers during the past week. The second Sunday dinner dance in Eugene, scheduled every other month, was at tended by Mr. and Mrs. Ray Dallaire, Mr. and Mrs. Del Orgain and Mr. and Mrs. Jack C. Pctterson.

In the interest of international good will, the Arista Trading com pany, export distributors of appliances, has prepared an "American Household Appli ance Guide for Guests From Abroad." Joseph L. Mollick, president of the company, hopes also it will pave the way to increasing the number of satisfied users of American products. In the first place, Mollick said, appliances bought for export should have an "inter national warranty" which means that if something goes wrong with a piece of equip ment within a stated time, the manufacturer will make good on it. There should be assur ances of proper crating and packing for export, too, he said. As most American tourists have discovered, electrical power supplies abroad are dif ferent from those in the United States. Many countries have power limitations or fluctuations that could dam age an appliance unless it was designed to work under those conditions. To enable the for eign purchaser to buy the right appliance for his coun try, the guide has listed major countries with the types and frequency of current, number of phases, nominal voltage and number of wires to the residence for each. The "how to buy" guide ad vises foreign purchasers lo ar range also for the proper type of special all-risk insurance on their shipments. It also in forms them that when an American product is bought for export through an "auth orized source," it usually is not subject to local or state taxes and never involves U.S. federal excise taxes. The booklet offers advice about buying specific kinds of appliances. "We consider it very impor tant that all visitors lo the United States return to their homeland with a favorable image of America that will re flect good will and fellow ship," Mollick said. - What better reminder of the U.S.A. could there be, Mollick asks, than the click of a pop up toaster every morning? Shower Honors Miss Trautman Central Point - Miss Nila Trautman, bride-elect of Lar ry Kemper was honored at a bridal shower recently at the C. L. Ghelardi home, Old Stage road, Central Point.

Prepare Small Children For First School Days By PATRICIA McCOHMACK United Press International New York - 1UPII - Getting a child ready for first grade or kindergarten before he enters helps guaran tee the ab sence of tears, temper tan trums and other trau m a that very first day of school. For one thing, you've got to talk child out of the yen to PiltrlHn McCormack tote his life-size teddy bear lo school. Sure. It's his happiness and security object and he's attached to it. But can you imagine how much worse the classroom shortage would be if every kindergarten tot carted his favorite toy to school? In these weeks before the academic buzzer summons your darling, concentrate on medical records, medical ex aminations, dental records, dental examinations, the wardrobe - and, of course. work on child's attitude to ward school. If you haven't done so yet. call the pediatrician and the dentist pronto. Make appoint ments for examinations. Many schools want reports on these examinations. But even ir the school, docs not require it, you want to know that your child is in perfect condition for school. At the examination, an un known hearing, eye or speech defect might lie uncovered.

Texas, where he is lo be graduated Septem ber 2.S from officers' training school. When you register child for school, be ready lo answer the following medical questions: -What immunizations has your child been given? When? -What serious illnesses has your child had? -What communicable dis eases, such as chickenpox, measles, mumps, whooping cough, has your child had? (If he hasn't had any of these, don't worry. He'll probably get at least one during the first school year - the result of being exposed to more chil dren.) A part of the pre-school physical includes bringing the child's immunizations up to date. Other preparation includes: -Build up school as a hap py, w o n d e r ful experience. Tell the child he's going to learn, make new friends. -Have him help you label the boots, raincoat and other gear he'll be taking off when in school. If you use initials, make them large, so your child can see them , quickly and from a distance. This will lessen panic when he must pick out his red rain boots from a line of 30 other pairs of identical red rain boots when school lets out. -Practice putting on boots and taking off same. Ditto for coals, hats, and other gear. -Go over the school clothes. Sec that socks and all other clothes fit without bind ing or falling down. And let Ihe child practice buttoning and unbuttoning, zipping and unzipping those clothes he'll have to manipulate on his own when at school. Teach him his name, ad dress, telephone number. Un til you're certain he knows Ibis, keep an identification card in Ins pocket. -Gently remind him a doz- ! Pn til,lcs a day that a good sludent never sticks head or hands or arms out of a school bus window. -Without making a bore of yourself, put child through (he paces of crossing the street and handling himself alone in such a situation -pretending you aren't there. P S. -When Junior or Janie go off to kindergarten, tell them to have a good time. And smile. Don't let the youngsters see your tears. Couple Moves Illinois Valley Mr. and Mrs. M. A.

Females Have New Batch Of "Why Don't Theys" By GAY PAULEY UPI Women's Editor New York (UPI) Those fe males are at it again, giving free advice to the fashion, food and home furnishings in d u s t r i e s on ways the manufacturers can improve their products. Never one to let the con sumer sugges- i Jmw&!4J 1 1 o n go un- Gay Pauley heard since both consumer and man ufacturer stand to g a i n -we've compiled another batch of "why don't they's?" These are from women of our own acquaintance, from readers, and from that vocal group of 85,000 consultants who make up the National Family Opinion Poll, Inc., a consumer research firm with headquarters in Toledo. One of the persistent "why don't they's?" concerns the short sleeves in fashion in re cent seasons. Several readers wonder why they don't make winter coats with long sleeves. Said one reader, Mrs. J. Brownell, M 1 n e o 1 a , N.Y., Valley Men Elected To Office Three Rogue valley men were elected lo offices in the Moose lodge during the an nual state convention held recently in Roseburg. Joe Cole, Medford, was elected district deputy su preme governor; Carl Sander, Central Point, was elected vice president of the Oregon State Moose association, and John W.

Better This Year Better luck this winter, Mrs. Brownell. Sleeves were down to the wrist in the new fall and winter clothes, so you should have a chance. Numerous also are the re quests for some good styling for the stout woman. One woman of my acquaintance wished the industry would stop putting the size 46 and up in little besides the but-ton-down-the-front dresses. "When a stout woman sits in one," she complained, "there's a gap between each button." Said another, wishing for some youthful styles for the over-50 age group, "No Moth er Hubbards, please, but tail ored and simple dressy styles. These sleeveless, scoop neck dresses are fine for teen-agers but not for us." Why Don't They . . . Most of the suggestions con cern methods of making housework easier. Why don't they: - Put a raised edge on evap orated milk containers so that an ordinary can opener would open them? - Make all walk-in freezers with latches on the inside for complete safety? - Produce a typewriter rib bon that can be changed by an amateur without getting ink up to the wrists? - Put casters on hampers for soiled clothes, so the hampers can be wheeled in stead of carried to the laundry area? - Manufacture more dur able push buttons for spray cans, So often a half-full can is useless because the push button fails. - Package cheese spread the same way as toothpaste for fast stuffing of celery? - Make party line telephon es with a small red light which glows when the line is not in use? - Try plastic bags inside cereal packages. Waxed paper bag inserts tear easily and also stick to the box. - Manufacture a product to put into a sink disposal to ieave a pleasant aroma in the kitchen? - Market soup in five ounce cans, an ideal size for the sick room or for the person who lives alone? - Bring back the old - fash ioned front porch with banis ters, swing and rocking chair? - While they're at it, why not bring back also the ham mock? , Uglv Crab Grass plants like til is will soon be ruining the appearance of your lawn. 03 1 M In just four davs. PAX P1!
