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:

Frosted Grapes An
Artistic Garnish
Grapes have been a favorite
decorative theme since the
earliest days of the graphic
arts. You will see luscious
clusters of grapes, a few
leaves and the airy tips of
tendrils worked in silver,
bronze and glass or shown
brilliantly in oils or sonic
other medium. When the artist
is also an epicure and wants
to portray a "banquet table
laden with the finest he
drapes a lavish fruit center
piece with the choicest grapes.
Frosted grapes cut into
small clusters make artistic
garnishes for fruits, meat or
fish salad, or for a variety of
desserts. Wash and dry grapes.
Cut into small clusters and
brush each with slightly beat
en egg white. Hold over wax
ed paper and sprinkle with
fine granulated sugar. De
pending on the salad, you may
want to vary the flavor by
adding a pinch of cinnamon,
cardamon or other sweet
spices to the sugar.

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 !
