Hcffcrnan Jr., chairman of the Jackson County chapter, American Red Cross, welcomed about 50 new volun teers and board members to the recent annual Red Cross orien tation course. Mr. Heffcrnan ex pressed the belief that service is only as good as its volunteers and said Jackson county is ex tremely fortunate in having such a well organized and active group interested in the prob lems of the community. Main speaker for the session was Mrs. Frank Fairweathcr, local volunteer field consultant. In presenting a brief history of the Red Cross she explained that the American National Red Cross is a volunteer organ ization chartered by Congress and supported entirely by gifts through the United Fund and individual contributions. There are currently 3,700 lo cal chapters throughout the United States with over 2,000, 000 volunteers serving in vari ous capacities. She explained that because full-time trained people are essential for a con tinuous program of technical services doctors, nurses, so cial workers and administra tors, a minimal staff is main tained; however, the ratio is about one paid worker for 156 volunteers with an even greater span existing in Jack son county. Moral Obligation Red Cross has a moral as well as a legal obligation first, "to act in matters of voluntary re lief during times of disaster," and secondly, "to act as a me dium of communication between the people of the United States and their Armed Forces," as stated by the American National Red Cross charter. The organi zation participates in over 300 A KICAI A- rs i r- or 1 wmm 3" -- , disaster relief operations each year, providing food, shelter, clothing, medical aid and reha bilitation aid to thousands of families. A total of $20,160 was spent on local disaster relief last year following the October wind storm and the December flood in Jackson county, she said. About 55 per cent of total staff time and 40 per cent of the Red Cross budget goes for services to the Armed Forces. Services Listed Other services offered hv Rod Cross are not mandatory, but i niuur permissive ana vary within chapters. Services of fered in Jackson county include me Diooa program, nursing ser vices, safety services, service to we blind, Gray Lady service to the V.

Three new services have been added to the local pro gram wnnin the past year and inciuae v. A. Domiciliary coun sel service, Red Cross commun ity service, and the newly or ganized Friendly Visitors serv ice. Programs are developed ac cording to the interests and needs of the communitv and the number of volunteers avail able to carry them out. Mrs. Lillian Salade, chair man of volunteers, introduced the local chairmen who ex plained their particular services in detail and how they function within the county. Opportunities open to volunteers were ex plained fully and at the conclu sion of the session new volun teers met informally with chair men to discuss individual inter ests.

Arts Long Hairdo But the President's wife, who has a flair for creating her own styles, still prefers the long cas ual look for herself. Her long page boy caused a lot of com ment when she made a public appearance at the welcoming ceremonies for Emperor Haile Salassie of Ethiopia before her trip to Greece. Masculine opin ion was highly in favor of it. To women observers, it was the "Jackie" individuality again, bound to gain many followers. A few years ago, Mrs. Ken nedy's bouffant hair-dos were fashion pacesetters. Most of the New Frontier women soon fell into line, including the women in the Kennedy clan. Promote Short Hair But leading Washington hair dressers are now promoting shorter hair. Jean Louis, one of the capital's haute couture hair dressers, has just returned from Paris with what he claims is the last word on the subject short er hair with less teasing and, happily men will say, less spray to hold it in place. Jean Louis' customers are some of the capital's most photo graphed ladies. This includes Mrs. Lyndon B. Johnson, wife of the vice president; Mrs. Robert F. Kennedy, wife of the attorney general, the President's mother, Mrs. Joseph P. Kennedy; his sis ter, Mrs. Sargent Shriver, and the First Lady's sister, Princess Lee Radziwill, when she's in town. Leads Parade Louis scored a coup when he sold Mme. Harve Alphand, wife of the French ambassador, on the new shorter locks. She leads the fashion parade on the diplo matic front and is quite skilled in coiffing her own hair. Jean Louis' main sales pitch to the elite women who come to his salon is that the new style is more useful and chic espec ially if they are nearing or past 30. He is all for the super daz zling upswept hairdos for eve ning, but prefers to achieve these creations oy adding a small hairpiece, called a "pos- tiche. While cruising on the Medi terranean on the luxurious yacht of Greek shipping magnate Aris totle Onassis, the First Lady has not bothered with fancy hairdos. But there are two hairdressers on board to keep her and her female companions, including Princess Radziwill, well groom ed while touring the Greek islands.
