Two dozen Italian coutur iers and sportswear designers put their new look on display during six days of showings here recently at the Pittl Palace. Photographs of the collections were released last week. Hemlines Stay High ine nomllne showed no sign of going anywhere in the new clothes. It stayed an chored to the knee, Just where it's been for some time. But for evening wear, it plum, meted to the floor. An Oriental flair showed up in the beach wear depart ment. Sarongs, long skirts and flobby bell bottomed trous ers replaced the durable Cap. ri pants. The Eastern influence car ried over in the "at home" costumes for those who like to make a dazzling impres sion at home. They combined sleek silk pants with Rajah tunics. Back on the beach, the bi kini seems lo be here to slay. Emilio Puccl teamed them with gossamer silk shirts in Pacific prints in his "Indo nesian" collection. It would have been diffi cult to overlook the hats In the Florence collections. They grew both outward and up ward, reaching the propor tions of beehives or cart wheels. The Cleopatra hat was a great favorite in straw and always worn tilted well back on the head. Princess Irene Valitzine of Rome offered one of the most popular collections in the show. It featured the silken tunic, gathered and elasticized at the hem for a bloused effect. Jole Veneziani of Milan gave coats and suits a new look. They were slender with A ii it k if Wt1 M if J - Florence - Inspired by the Vatican's Swiss Guards, de signer Tita Rossi of Rome cre ated this daytime ensemble for Spring 1963.

The Fonlana Sisters of Rome highlighted their show by pointing up the difference between the front and back of the creations. One is smooth and simple and the other extravagant and com plicated. It gave a sort of two-faced "Janus" effect to the clothes. WORK SMARTER NOT HARDER By BERNICE STRAWN Oregon Stat University Mandatory Registration Of Firearms Is Opposed If you're a typical home maker, you spend one year of your life talking on the tele phone, according to recent market research. This may be time saving ... or not. To work smarter, you might try this idea from a young Lane county mother. A long cord on her telephone lets her work around the kitchen while she talks. Two others we know have a telephone coffee break every morning at 10. Each sips coffee by her phone and catches up on the latest hap penings. Time limit 15 min utes. A lot less than a neigh borhood koffee klatsch. Cleaning floors is voted an unpopular job by all of us. Here are some of the ques tions we get. "Why is my light gray vinyl turning yellow?" Maybe you're using the wrong wax. Try one of the colorless self polishing waxes made espec ially for light floors. And re move it before rewaxing to prevent a build-up of old wax. "Why is my asphalt tile floor smeary looking?" Are you using a solvent base wax which has to be polished either a liquid or a paste? The solvent in these waxes softens asphalt. A water-base, self polishing wax is the right one for asphalt tile. Check the label on the can. "My floors are always slip pery. What's wrong?" Chances are you use too much wax. Two thin coats put on a few hours apart are better than one heavy one.

The six and a half foot officer wearing olive drab uniform and side arms ran true to cinema form in drawl as well as appearance, giving serio-comic performai that kept his audience alter nately alarmed and amused. It was docldely different in its dcadpap "spoofing" of the hero who always (jets his man with a quick draw. Mr. Jordan s record In the border patrol service is a long one and has qualified him for many citations. His reputation led to numerous television encounters to prove his speed and accuracy in tmt drawing an opponent.

It may surprise you to know the more it's buffed, the hard er the finish and the less slip pery it will be. Don't use an oil mop on a waxed floor. Oil softens the wax, makes the floor "tacky." Don't work too hard when you wash plastic light fix tures. It's smart to let them air dry. The reason: rubbing creates static electricity which acts like a magnet to attract dust from the air. Smart homemakers tell us: It takes time to scoop out hard ice cream for a crowd at your holiday party. You'll be smart to start early. Scoop ice cream balls and place them on a cookie sheet or foil. Stash away in the freezer. When firm, transfer balls to a plastic bag until ready-to-serve. 1922 Class At Phoenix Reunited Phoenix - The five persons who comprised the lbz2 Phoenix High school graduat ing class met February 14 for a reunion.
