Gift Suggestions Dick West Gift Counsellor's Suggestions By DICK WEST Washington -iDPH- For the past few weeks 1 have been in sporadic communication iwith a brcath 1 e s s young woman who ! operates a gift counsel ting and shopping I service in New I York. Actual ly. I couldn't swear that she 1 is a breathless west young woman because I have never met her personally. But she certainly does write young and breath lessly. In her first letter, suggest ing that 1 might want to avail myself of her services, she wrote: "I leap to guarantee that gifts personally selected by the fabulous Diane Mitchell (that's me!) will not only be of interest to your column's clientele but will assure each of y6ur devoted readers from North' Carolina to Southern California of a perfect Christ mas." I sent that sentence to a laboratory to determine its octane content and it prov ed to be 10 per cent more volatile than aviation gaso line. It was not Diane's literary style that ignited my interest, however. It was her modus operandi. As far as I know, she has the only shopping service based on psychoanal ysis. Her clients are supplied with a "personality check list" on which they are invited to delineate the quirks and char acter flaws of the person for whom a gift is to be selected. The check list includes such entries as "extrovert," "sensu ous," "aggressive," "intellec tual," "taciturn," "cuddly," "placid," "snob," "scary," "arty" and "shy." Upon seeing that, I decided to test the fabulous Diane's psychological powers. I wrote to her and requested that she suggest a gift for a cuddly snob who is aggressively sen suous. In a few days she sent me a telegram which said: "Male or female?" I conceded that round to Diane and composed a sec ond challenge. I told her that the "cuddly snob" was a male and thai I also want ed a gift for a female, "a shy extrovert who is intel lectually scary." 1 am now in receipt of her reply and here is what she recommends: For the female "A myna Six Area Teachers Evaluating Guide Four Medford and two Ash land teachers have been select ed by the Oregon Heart asso ciation to participate in the evaluation of a new curricu lum guide for teaching about the heart and circulatory sys tem in Oregon schools.

OREGON Communist Purge From Venezuela Schools Demanded Caracas, Venezuela - ll'PII -The killing of a high school teacher before his mathemat ics class has touched off de mands for a p u r g e of Com munists from Venezuela's school system. Teacher Jose Damian Rami rez, father of seven children, was fatally beaten and shot Thursday night, reportedly by a Communist gang terrorizing a downtown Caracas night school. Refused Order Students of the slain teach er said the gang burst into the classroom and ordered Rami rez to suspend classes in com memoration of the first anni versary of the death of a ter orisl shot while attempting to burn a bus. Ramirez was killed when he refused. Authorities obtained a war rant to enter the autonomous Central University of Venezu ela and arrested Jorge Ramon Villalobos Anez, 22, who was charged with murder. The university, like many in Latin America, is tradition-, ally off-limits to law enforce- j ment bodies. Villalobos. who graduated i last year from the school where Ramirez taught, was identified as a member of the Communist-line movement of the revolutionary left. Police searched Villalabos t room in a dormitory known as "Stalingrad" and said they found radio equipment, hand ! 12 SOC Students Noted in Who's Who Ashland - Twelve Southern Oregon college students have been honored by their election lo "Who's Who Among Stu dents in American Universi ties and Colleges," Dr. Alvin Fellers, director of student af fairs, has announced.
