California Designers Resort to Camouflage By MYRAM BORDERS United Press International Beverly Hills, Calif. -0IPD-Calilornia Fashion Creators today were giving diet foods a run for the female pocket book. Dress creations reflected an aftempt'to accentuate tne pos itive and eliminate the nega tive. The camouflage was not dishonest, but was done with clever design and color engi neering. A heavy waist was conceal ed by blouson sheath . . . lengthened suit coals covered hips . . . the bustline was enhanced by color patterns and embroidered . . . and the skimmer covered a multitude of imperfections. Thirty-eight CFC members Friday concluded a five-day fashion show at the Beverly Hills Wilshire hotel for the 12th annual National Press week.

OHEOON 1 jifit Canada attended the spring showing. Charles LeMaire, designer for Jan Gertsman-California, showed editors that years in motion picture design rooms could be used to the advan tage of the popular priced market. The three - time academy award winner bloused backs of the basic sheath to divert attention from the waistline. He mixed . . . matched . . . covered . . . jeweled . . . and draped the sheath. The resulting silhouette was slender. Understated colors such as honeycomb, green gold, grey and subtle stripe combinations enhanced the line. Irish linen and Italian silk were most popular. But syn thetics found their place on the fashion racks including Etruscan rayon, Swissera or Cottena-dacron and cotton. The loose fitting, button- down dress coat appeared in almost every fashion house as well as double - breasted coats and dresses. 'Skimmers' Shown The LeMaire unrestricted look was personified in a black skimmer which drifted easily to just below the knee. The sleeveless, sheer wool cre ation was dressed up or down by panels falling from the shoulder. They could be tied in front or draped from the back. Peggy Hunt retained her trademark of the square neck sheath with accented bodice. The bustline usually was drap ed in Cluny lace or empha sized with Venice lace appli que studded with rhinestones and embroilery. Skimmers were popular with Georgia Bullock. Colors started from brilliant palo mino and cooled to greys. Silks or worsted wool dresses were matched with tunic or full length coat. Suit sleeves usu ally were three-quarter length. Many houses used the bias inset midriff or doublcbreast ed designs to complement the figure. Simplicity and uncomplicat ed fashions were totally ac cepted. Carnival Slated By Yreka PTA Yrcka - Plans for the an nual school carnival were made at the last meeting of Yreka Elementary Parent Teacher association in the multi-purpose room of the Jackson Street school. Ap proximately 80 members were present. Songs were sung by the members of the fourth grade classes from the Gold Street school under the direction of their teachers. The business meeting was presided over by Mrs. Robert Jennott, unit president. The carnival will be held March 8. The remainder nf the meet ing was taken up by teachers explaining the class books used in their departments. Life Primitive (Editor's Note: Hong Kong the tiny British crown colony off the Red China coast, has one big problem: People. Thousands of people who came from the China main land, and are still coming, have jammed Hong Kong's housing to an impossible lev el. In the following dispatch, the first of two on the island colony's people problem, UPI Women's Editor Gay Pauley tells of her visit to a Hong Kong squatter's village where life is primitive and pitiful.) By GAY PAULEY UPI Women's Editor Hong Kong - IUPII - To the 11-mcmber family of Lam Chen, (we shall not use his real name because relatives r i Swatow. Red China) home hut the size of the living room of a modest ranch house in the United States. &JwakMfcaadBi Its floor is Giy fsuiey concrete, its walls a makeshift bamboo. sack-cloth and corrugated metal protection against sum mer's blazing sun and winter's chill. Its furnishings are sus pended from the roof. Sharing the ll-by-20 foot home are Chen's wife, eight children ranging from 10 years to four months in age, an elderly grandmother, and four half-grown pigs whose sty is beneath the suspended cot. Also sharing the place -unbelieveably small for such number of people - is Chen's means of livelihood -a home industry of bean curd making. The day I visited the Chen home, the beginnings of the curd, a food resembling cheese, were steaming in a wooden vat in one corner of the room. Older children were wrapping squares of the finished curd. Number Half-Million Chen is one of the squat ters, a half-million by a gov ernment count who have helped to swell the British crown colony's population from 600,000 at the end of World War II to 3,133,131 counted in the 1961 census. Unofficial estimates now put the population at 3.500.000. More than 98 per cent of the population is Chinese. And the government says that since 1949, when the Communists overran the Chi. nese mainland, one million migrants have come from China. The birth rate runs above 100,000 a year - among the highest per capita in the world. And continuing migra tion - 50 are admitted legally each day but various sources say the number is closer to 200 because of illegal entry -all adds up to one outsize headache for the government. Where to put the people? Especially the squatters. The government says that 72.000 of them live in make shift quarters on rooftops. Tour village Martin Chu, assistant re settlement officer, took this reporter, a photographer, and three Navy officers in port with the U. S. Aircraft car rier Valley Forge on a tour of one squatter village on Kowloon. He said the gov ernment hopes to solve the squatter problem - get all re settled - in five years. "But I don't know," said Chu. "The natural increase of the population is so rapid. . ." Chen's home industry was one of several we saw in the village. There were a small bakery, a cafe, a barber shop, and a carpentry shop. The squatter is not a relief problem, Chu said. Ninety nine per cent are self-supporting. Must Be Seen Squatters live in conditions most unsanitary by any stand ard. These conditions have to be seen, and smcllcd, to be believed. Open drainage ditches carry refuse. Toilets are open latrines serving sev eral families. Water, in the case of the Kowloon village, is brought from laps available at the nearby resettlement estate - and at the moment, .WO Thanksgiving Morning 10:30 A.M. Message by Rev. Loyce C.

Yet epidemic disease has been kept under control, often through the government's niH.ss inoculations for such diseases as cholera.

Eichelberger, 3367 For rest avenue. Lewis and Clark college student spending sev eral months in Japan under the Freshman Abroad program, writes frequently to his parents. Below are ex cerpts from recent letters.) October 2 Masatoshi seems to be chos en by the family as my bene factor, bodyguard, servant, and what have you. He speaks fair English, and we get along famously. This morning we took the train for Osaka for the purpose of buying a ca mera. Let's face it, few for eigners leave Japan without another camera, and I'm no exception. Great camera, though. We window shopped, had lunch, and returned to Ot osan's office. Masatoshi worked for an hour while I wandered around the bustling, narrow streets. Joy of joys! I found a shoeshlne man who understood textbook Japanese. Later, we (father, eldest broth er, and I) went to an art exhi bit in a department store. It was a fabulous collection of new and old in a section three times as large as the Rogue Gallery. Department stores here are hard to believe, be cause they're different and better than American stores. We were driven home in the Hirono family car by the Hir ono family chauffeur. A let ter from my American home was waiting. October 3 This morning I gave Masato shi the nickname of Bobby. His resemblance to Bobbv Darin is amazing. Not only does he look like him, but he sings and acts like him. In the afternoon all the experimen ters in Ashiya were given a bus tour of the ctiy. After that, the mayor gave a reception in a Sukiyaki house and all the dignitaries, reporters, photo graphers, etc. I have a date with an American girl and her Japanese sister for tomorrow. Octobsr 4 Kay, Nani and I went to Os- ako today. First, though, I met Kay's Japanese parents (Na- ni's real parents). Their fath er is a leading figure In local activities, a member of Rotary (past president), second presi dent of some big stock ex change, and a former world traveler. He also oversees a new, large hotel In Kyoto. In the evening, I learned to play Go, the Japanese equivalent to chess and Chinese checkers, with all three brothers and a friend. Fascinating. October 5 Sleeping late seems to he one of the Hirono household's most pleasant customs. Break fast is always ready for the various members who wake at different hours. Okasan (Jap anese Mom, remember?) show ed me most of the family's ka kemono (hanging scrolls) until lunch. In the afternoon, Kat chink (second brother's nick name), Bobby, and I went to Kobe.

(jg) Charles Bordernkircher, Portland, Ore., and Marine Women's News Inko parlors with slightly in flated "low" prices. However, it's better than Osaka. October 6 Bobby, Skip, and 1 went ice skating this afternoon. At the rink I was talking to a cute lit tle Japanese girl who was try ing her English on me, while I was attempting my Japanese on her. Both she and her friend were small, adorable, and very young-looking. I fig ured both girls were In their early teens, but the one I was talking to told me her age, and I almost fell through the ice. She was older than I, even though she looked junior-high age. Skip's been here longer, and he told me he'd guessed it before we started talking to them. October 7 Okasan and I left the house early this morning to go to T a k a ' s (youngest brother) school athletic field day. The big boost of the day came when I was in the reviewing stand. A gentleman leaned ov er and asked: "Are you the English teacher here?" October 8 I still can't believe how nice my family is. They look out for me, wait on me hand and foot, give me things, and keep me thoroughly stuffed with food. One might say exces sively stuffed. We were interviewed by re porters from Japan's three leading newspapers today. We were give our mail prior to the conference, and my unope ened letters were burning a hole in my pocket, but 1 could not open them without a breach of manners being com mitted. Now I know how the troops oveseas feel. After that. the live of us took on anoth er interview, this time with a hundred junior-high stu dents. October 9 The entire freshman group met in Jtami City's town hall this morning. We were suppos ed to have a lecture, but our professor, Kenneth Johnson didn't show up until we were leaving. He and his wife are living in Kyoto, and it's vir tually impossible for him to be anywhere on time because of the distance. Our group then went to a base of the National Self De fense Force. Due to the war. Japan is not allowed to have an army. This self-defense force replaces that with a smaller army-like police force. We spent the rest of the day touring the base. Good news was waiting when I got home. Rogue Valley Unitarian Universalisr Fellowship Speaker: ERIC ALLEN Editor of the Mail Tribune Topic: "Milestones" RED CROSS BLDG., 60 Hawthorn.

October 10 Bobby and I met Kay and her Japanese sister, Nami, at the railroad station this morn ing. Kay is from the group, and 1 had told her that the President Cleveland was dock ing on the tenth. We all mada a date to see the ship that had transported the Lewis and Clark group. Consequently, we went to Kobe and dug uo all sorts of memories and old friends of the crew. We spent the rest of the day shopping, eating, and seeing a movie. (In English). As it started to get dark, we took a cable car to the top of Mt. Rokko. We ate dinner in a little restaurant with a spectacular view of Kobe's lights. We went back down the same way, and ar rived home in time to see tha world's featherweight cham pionship fight on television. October 11 I stayed home all day to day; for once.
