6 A MONDAY. MAY (. 1863 MEDFOHD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFOHD, OREGON Bouffant Hairdo Won't Fit Under Mortarboard By CAY PAULEY UPI Woman's Editor ' New York - lUPt - There's no lumma cum laude tor the '- bouffant hairdo from those who (upply mortarboard! for girl graduatea. ' The teen-ager with the big head on graduation day is Just a headache to the cap and gown suppliers, industry sources said today. They would like to see the hair tamed just for that one event : in a girl's life anyway. And one supplier has gone so far as to publish q bro chure for high schools, sug ' gesting various hair, styles best suited for the mortar board. . "The bouffant's a major problem," said John Barbera, rclcs administrator of the E. : R. Moore company, which produced the brochure. "We talk down the teasing of the hair and hope the girls will be conservative at least for that one important hour in their lives." "On graduation day the bouffants gotta go," said Phil ip Gelvn, executive vice-president of the Collegiate Cap and Gown company. ' But industry sources said all mortarboard .sizes have grown a bit, simply because today's children are larger than previous generations. . "Ten or 15 years ago, a boy of six feet two Inches was a giant," said Gelvin. ... .i, .. ,,. . r , , To mothers to be with love on Mother's Day A Gift of Maternity Fashion from IsPoinle's. Clean and Store Your Woolens NOW . . PAY NEXT FALL! Wool-Pack "Today, they're six feet sev. en, eight and nine and nobody thinks anything about it.' The larger stature of today's graduate is reflected in lar ger gown sizes too. But gown lengths do not vacillate with fashion - they're still worn approximately eight inches from the floor, although to day's teen-age girl is wear ing her regular hemlines al most kilt length. Major, changes for the whole Industry are in the riot of new colors for the high school graduate, the new fab rics In lighter weights for scholars of all ages, and a demand now for caps and gowns right down to the kin dergarten level. Gelvin's firm listed more than two dozen colors rang ing from black, navy and ma roon to white, rich purple, brilliant gold, scarlet red, sev eral shades of greens and blues, and smoke gray. The bright and light colors for the halls of ivy are a result of the nation's whole conscious ness of color, said Gelvin. "You see it in homes, in the cars." ... . - Returns :.

Social Events Vmi Br Rome - Happy Rome. Well, this week you are 2716 years old, and you scarcely look a day over two thousand. Of course you have had your ups and downs since 7S3 B.C., but the world agrees that you are Just as lovely as when Romulous .found you, a simple country girl. If you have put on a few bulges here and there, and your arteries are a bit constricted with all this mod' ern traffic, it does no harm to your mature look Flowers are in full bloom on the Spanish steps, and the elections are drawing nearer and electioneering louder, The pamphlets, thrown from automobiles, are deeper on the walks, and with the wind and rain this last week, scurry about in the air, and then settle in soggy masses on steps, corners and streets. Paul Roberts, a student at the Rome International school was selected from American applicants all over the world as the one to receive the Na tional Merit scholarship. He plans on going to Portland to Reed college next year. The Episcopal church in Rome is to have a new school. It will be a branch of Kent school in the States, and will be called St. Stephens. The slogan is to be, "The best of two worlds." Considering that the trip to Rome may be made in 24 hours now, the school is expected to draw many stu dents from the States. Besides the studies, the advantages of being in Rome, and of being able to travel from here to Greece, Austria and France is an incentive. To study his tory on the spots where it happened, to see art in the rl2!nI and to learn lan guages, and background of languages is inspiration to young people. Fortlanders are still coming to Rome in numbers. The Skiers returned bu there were 15 (16, if I were counted as one) at Barbara Mersereau's apartment recently. One family of seven, who are touring Europe and the Now you can buy him that pip of a suit, pip of a shirt, pip of a Stetson, pip of shoe or pip of anything at Barker's ANY night until ninel SCT STOCK UP NOW? NOW As' Js 102 - Vidi MARGARET SCHULER Birthday, Orient for a year, Is here. They have been skiing in France for two months, and are on their way to visit Si cily. In Germany they bought a Mercedes-Benz bus. What a bus! When you step into it you feel as though you are entering an airplane. There is an aisle in the center, and two rows of seats; four on each side. The windows are large, and you can sit as comfortably as In your home in the high backed, foam filled seats. The back half is large enough for ski equip ment, luggage, statues, or what gifts they are carrying; even a clothes rack, hanging, filled with suits, coats and dresses. One Portlander, who is planning to tour Europe with three children this summer after school closes, and is on a close budget, says wryly that she is planning her itin erary, not on the wonders of the country, but on where there are laundromats. Stock ings and shorts have to be washed. Bridgctte Bardot is in town. She caused a minor uproar in the Excelsior where she went for cocktails, and to interview newsmen. The cameras clicked, flood lights were turned on, and there was pushing and angling for position. Even aluminum lad ders were hastily propped up. Two men almost fell off them. She wore a black, low necked evening dress, and seemed a bit frightened. She has come to do a movie, one of Mor avia's novels, called "A Ghost at Noon." Jack Parlance is playing the opposite role. But Lancaster is interested in playing the role of Dr. Zhivago in the Nobel prize novel of Boris Pasternak. It is to be filmed here in Rome; at least the interior scenes. Something else about Brid- gette, she is wearing a black wig to minimize her crowd gathering appeal. They say she has rented an apartment over near Piazza Navonna, and that two husky guards escort her to and from. Kedettes ALL STYLES ALL COLORS SAVE!
