Continuine is a strong inter est in patterns, both in classic carpets and rugs with a bold look; varied combinations of color and texture fnr approach to pattern; carpets ana rugs in new coordinated groups; a wider availability of custom designs with unlimited possibilities in design, size or shape. American manufactu r e r s will literally roll out the red carpet this fall, highlighting new styles in this color fam ily. "Feminine, but not frilly" might be the keynote for these introductions. In this view are mellow, deeper hues such as ruby and raspberry reds - and in some style groups, rich pink with an old-world look of ele gance. Several new varieties of blue will also be seen, rang ing from delicate pastels to brighter blue and. rich royal or clear turquoise shades. Soft textures, in thick plush piles or long shaggy yarns (but with a softer, controlled FOOTWEAR Favorite date shoes for teens are the little heel, leather pumps.

Boldly textured tweeds, dense twists, striated and heavy-looped tex tures and intense colorings will enhance decorating plans which call for heavy, simply styled furniture and warm color schemes. Here the gold and greens, in almost endless variety, are important along with tawny tones, such as henna and rus set, and nut-brown tones. The latter have usurped some of beige's long time popularity, and in the green family soft shades of clear, true greens look especially new. Wide Rang of Patterns Classic patterns, including florals and panel or block de signs, will again be seen in carpets, and the pattern choice is even wider in rugs. There are strictly contem porary stylings in stripes, bold bursts of color and geometric designs. Subtle flower and leaf designs are interpreted in a variety of ways, often in a rug border, as well as oval and swirl motifs. Authentic clan tartans show up in one new rug group, a pattern based on a finely wrought lavalier in another. Patterns to complement Co lonial furnishings, including an authentic reproduction of a New England hooked rug and a braided rug design, will be offered in rug sizes as well as carpeting.

Several manufacturers have broadened custom-design ser vices, offering shoppers a chance to create their own de signs or select any color, tex ture, size or shape on special order. Even without special cus tom orders, however, shoppers this fall can vary their choices within new collections. Car pets and rugs can be co-ordinated from groups with a cen tral color theme; area rugs can be ordered with or with out fringe or special border designs. There are new de signs in hand-carving for rugs cut from thick, plush-pile car peting. New shapes are avail able in area rugs and a num ber of sizes other than those generally considered "stand ard." Good news for young home makers - op-any homemaker who wants a bright new ac cent in her home - are in triguing area styles at budget prices. The old "scatter rug" gets a new design boost, from em bossed textures to interesting patterns. Some of these dis tinctive styles, in small sizes, will be available at less than $5 retail - a half dozen would find many uses throughout the home and scarcely touch the budget. The same smart styling is carried through into larger sizes and a variety of shapes - rectangular, round, square, oval. Further emphasis on bold design is seen in dense, heavy rugs meant for long term use, and in new carpets which lend themselves beau tifully to rug-size use. Cotton and rayon have been used to advantage in the small, colorful accent rugs, since these fibers can be color ed and styled economically.. Wool, nylon and acrylic fibers are all seen in the new qualities designed for wall-to-wall installations or long-lasting rug use. Also making their debut this fall will be addi tional carpet styles in polypro pylene fiber, the most recent continuous - filament fiber de developed ' for carpets and rugs. Zany Shifts Are Popular With The Younger Set The younger set is due for more shifty looks. Colorful and zany or de mure and tailored, the new shifts are ideal for gals to wear at teen gatherings. And, another kind of shift can . help the hostess in Machine Dyes Shoes To Match in Minutes Science has overtaken fash ion and produced a machine with artistic talent built into it. Women all over America will be able to have fabric shoes professionally dyed to match any of 1,140 colors, in ten minutes with this new Color -Mate computer whose color formulae is dispensed by the machine. Color is mixed to - order from recipe codes, by easily flicking dials, providing cus tomers quick accurate color matching, for fabric shoes and handbags, on textured fabric, peau de sole or satin. The Color - Mate machine looks like a soft drink dis penser, operates with a paper cup catching the mixed color obtained from any of twelve reservoirs of color formulae. breaking the ice, according to the makers of Ampex tape recorders. Invite guests to bring along a musical in strument and record home style music for immediate playback. With 34 million musicians in the U.S., there should be no shortage of talent. When what goes in the mi cro comes out the speakers, the party will be off to rous ing success. . Then shift to tapes of pop music for danc ing. The group may discover that the fun-filled variations of recording its own music, including solos by vocalists, can be almost endless. So are the selections of shifts, ac cording to Swirl, the makers of Model Coats. Newer versions of the shift feature short or long sleeves, no collars or shirt-style col lars, fabrics of easy-care cot ton or imported silks, youth ful designs from flowers or pussy cats to more sophisti cated Ivy-League patterns. Most shifts remain knee length but some descend to the ankle. Many come with matching belts which can double as head bands. Detractors and devotees have had a field day since the basic shift was originated in Florida. Critics brand them "tents" or "house coats." But gals of all ages seem to love them and they are the hottest news in leisure-wear. . For teen-agers, the appeal stems from comfort and ver satility. Shifts can be worn around the house, for sight seeing, for visiting. And, tak ing a tip from models who wear loose wraps between changes, some gals find shifts just right for "what to wear when you're deciding what to wear." Phoenix Police Hold Two in Robbery Case Phoenix, Ariz. -IUPB- Two suspects In a Portland, Ore., holdup were arrested, here Tuesday. Detectives identified them as William Kilmon and Frank Harris, both believed to be of Phoenix. Police said they are charged with armed robbery of a Safeway store in Port land Aug. 11. They were held on $5,000 bond for Oregon authorities. Classic Bool Makes Comeback Fashions, particularly shoe fashions, for the college man have gone through quite a cycle in the past decades. From the 1930's to the pres ent day, variations of the moccasin, the oxford and the boot have been the most pop ular footgear for college men. The current fashion for campus wear is an ankle-high variation of the classic boot. In the past decades, the three basic shoe fashions have alternated style with com fort and health. For example, in the thirties and early for ties, the huarache, a soft, woven leather moccasin, was popular. This shoe, although it appeared to be comfortable, actually offered practically no support for the foot. Its follower, the loafer shoe, gave a little more support and was crafted of a sturdier leather. Tired feet got another help ful boost when the saddle shoe became popular. The ox' ford-type shoe offered better support and comfort, and soon found favor with young college students too. The pop ular saddle shoe still is a favorite with the high school and college crowds. "It is so necessary for col lege people to realize the im portance of properly con- structed and well fitted shoes," says Dr. William M. Scholl, world-famous foot au thority. "Too often comfort imd foot health are forsaken for the fad of the moment. The current fashion for an kle-high boots combines stylo and comfort, and should re sult in healthier and happief feet." ' - Kennedy Backs Up Test Ban Proposal Washington (UPD President Kennedy backed up his argu ment for a test ban treaty Tuesday by citing .a report that Utah Infants have been exposed to a possibly danger ous level of , radioactive iodine. At his news conference, Kennedy said the report was a "matter of concern" but added that findings in the re port were not unanimous. . However, he said "it does tell us that it is desirable to get a test ban." - .; Nautical Look Is New, Nice Crisp fall weather this year will give, the outdoor gal a fine chance to show off the new "layered look" in fash-ion-and, if she's nautically in clined, an unusual opportuni ty for leisurely boating on uncrowded waterways. Boaters generally haul in the anchor and head for in doors after Labor Day, but this year hold off drydocking an extra few weeks, advises McCulloch Corporation, the outboard motor manufac turer. With most vacations over and school back in session, lakes and rivers become al most secluded; there's more room for fun. When underway, the culturally-minded gal can really shine in a turtleneck sweater under a "Picasso." Two jack et models, designed by the ar tist for White Stag, feature a 1924 surrealistic pattern and one taken from a 19S5 poster. Made of vinyl-covered cotton, the all-weather jackets come hooded, with drawstrings and front snaps. Another, a lightweight ny lon pullover jacket, features a large zippered pocket across the front. The hood pulls snug for those nippier days. The bulky sweater is still very much in vogue, and its warmth is important, but if spray strikes, it can create a problem. Not so the jacket! Capris are ideal to com plete the boating ensemble. Wool and cotton are popular, and when combined with easy-care dacron, perfect. Color combinations for sweater, jacket and capri pants range from conserva tive black and white to stand out oranges and yellows. Boating fashions should compliment the figure along the tapered slim line. Keep in mind, though, the idea is to be free for action. Pleasant Hill Man Killed in Accident Dexter -TOPD- Lyle Cornish, 51, Pleasant Hill, was killed in a logging accident, near here Monday afternoon. Cornish was a bucker for the Wiley Logging Co. of Mar-cola. STACKED FURNITURE There seems to be an end' less array of styles in stacking furniture, and there will be many more new models this season. Massive pieces with an oriental flavor have ap peared, and these have more of the look of built-ins than the usual room-divider look of slacking groups.
