Head of Tailoring Firm
Says Watch Suit Lapels
By WALTER LOGAN
United Press International
NEW YORK (UPI) - Dunhill
Tailored Clothes, Inc., is an em
porium of such imposing dignity
that male customers arc apt to
lower their voices and talk in
hushed tones as they look over
a bolt of fabric from which
they will order a $300 suit.
Its customers are so rich and
famous that Gentlemen's Quar
terly, slick magazine of men's
fashion, recently showed playboy-diplomat
Porfiro Rubirosa
in his new Dunhill wardrobe
and Man's Wear, a glossy trade
publication, showed rising young
actor George Humilton in his.
Since each magazine showed
a wardrobe of unparalleled
magnificence we dropped in on
Leon Bloch who is head of the
tailoring firm and occasionally
is known as a bit of a playboy
himself, and, of course, a well
dressed one.
"You're always right If you
are not loo extreme," he began
in response to a question about
sartorial splendors. "Most of
(he people are wrong their
lapels arc too narrow, both in
ready-to-wear and custom made
suits.
"A lot of people think a suit
is not in style if you can sec
tile lapel the same people who
will complain that something is
out of style when it finully fil
ters down to the masses. Hut
if you pay a lot for dollies and
go to a good tailor the lapels
are always normal.
"And, although we set the
trend, we were the first to
make lapels and shoulders nar
rower. But we never carried it
lo Ihe extreme and a man who
travels abroad will not be rec
ognized immediately as an
American because his lapels
are too narrow.
How the proper widtli of a
lapel depends on the size of the
man. But the average size 40
man should have a lapel rough
ly three inches wide. The slim
mer, ivy type cut might have
lapels as narrow as 2 inches."
Bloch would not quote Hie
proper length for jackets but
said television was causing
them to become shorter. That
is because television foreshort
ens a person and if he does not
have on a short jacket "he
looks as it he were standing in
a hole.
As for new trends, he said,
trousers are still getting trim
mer and again you see some
of the boys carrying it lo the
extreme where llicy end up
looking like beatniks or gig
olos." The trend toward pleatlcss
trousers continues. Five or six
years ago 95 per cent of trou
sers had pleals, but the reverse
is true now, lie said. Length re
mains at shoetop level with mi
increase of cuffless trousers.
At night, Block said, a i.ian
must a'.vays wear black shoes
and da.k suits if he is to be
well-dressed. People coming to
New York for conventions and
vacations don't dress right "but
if llicy did, they would be taken
(or city slickers back home."
lie spoke with favor of the
hold striped shirts now having
a great resurgence and noted
they were being worn increas
ingly at night but W illi very con
servative lies. Kouiiard hand
kerchiefs also are being worn at
night by well-dressed men in
stead of the cuslomarv while

Of all the material we've read in the last few days con
cerning President Johnson and his family, an article in the
Christian Science Monitor about his church seemed exception
ally interesting. President Johnson, according to the Monitor,
received his first religious training in a small rural church of
the Disciples of Christ in Johnson City, Tex., and has never
withdrawn his membership from it. Mrs. Johnson is an Episcopalian.
Thn Prncirlnni fhirinr' his nnliliral career, has attended
Central Christian Church, Austin, Tex., and the National City
Christian Church in Washington.
President Johnson is the second President of this country
to belong to the Christian Church. The other was President j
James A. Garfield, who was assassinated July 2, 1881.
Puzzled by the various names used by this church, we
queried Pal Peg, The Tribune's church editor, who explained

Church or The Church of Christ.
The church has been described by religious leaders as in
tensely New Testament centered, with an approach thai is
liberal, intellectual and independent. Having no creed and no
official doctrines, the church nevertheless practices immersion
as a baptismal ceremony. Communion is the only prescribed
ritual sermons may be omitted from a service, but never
communion.
The Disciples of Christ have been particularly interested in
the Proleslant unity movement in recent years.
A description of the Disciples of Christ in the Look magazine
series on religions in America published in 1959 puts them
seventh ia size among United Stales Prolestant communions.
"The Disciples," it says, "have discovered thai many per
sons cannot stand up on Sunday and espouse the Apostles'
or some other creed, yet devoutly desire to be Christians.
For many of them, the virgin birth, a literal heaven and hell,
the ultimate physical rising from the dead, a last judgment
of all human beings, and other doctrinal points are personally
unacceptable.
"The Disciples sweep away all conflict on such issues.
They say, 'Believe what you will, after studying your Bible.
The acceptance or rejection ot dogmatic principles cannot keep
any sincere person from reaching God or Christ.'
"Thus, the Disciple fellowship ranges from those who hold
every syllable of the Bible to be the literal word of God, to
humanists for whom the Bible is inspirational only. Being Chris
tians, however, all avow Jesus Christ as the Son of God. Almost
all concede that the soul has some form of immortality, but its
exact nature is a question that each believer must decide for
himself . . .
"II is true that the Disciple is released from any categori
cal position on such social questions as drinking, birth control, or
divorce. But the New Testament establishes definite obliga
tions on all followers of Jesus, and these obligations the Disciple
must weigh and abide by, according to his own conscience and
intelligence."
Writers in Washington are predicting that social life at
Ihe White House, when it resumes with the Johnsons as Pres
ident and First Lady, will be even more informal than when
the Kennedys were in the White house. Their parties in the
past have been noted for their informal air, tor music, dancing
and breezy relaxed gaiety.
It is predicted that the trench chel hired by tne Kennedys
will be replaced, probably by the Johnson's Negro cook, Zephyr.
The Johnson's household staff in Washington consisted of Zephyr,
two Negro butlers and three Negro maids.
Mrs. Johnson's social secretary is Bess Clement Abell.
Touching stories, from all over the world, about how Ihe
news of President Kennedy's death attected people in all walks
of life continue to be told. From Madrid it was reported that
25 Spanish Civilian drivers for the motor pool al the mixed
Spanish-American air base at Torrejon, near Madrid, pooled
money to buy a wrealh for President Kennedy. The pilot of a
plane bound for the United States jelivered it in Washington in
time for the funeral.
More than 3,000 people attended a memorial service for
President Kennedy held at St. Paul's Cathedral in London last
Sunday. Members of the royal family, including Queen Eliza
beth, Prince Philip, Princess Margaret and her husband, the
Earl of Snowclon, attended. Also there were Ihe sister and
brother-in-law of Mrs. Kennedy, Prince and Princess Stanislas
Uiidziwill.
From Nairobi, Kenya, came a story about an aged police
man, once a border patrolman, who realized one day that
something was wrong in the home where the American family
lived. When he was told that their President had been shot,
lie raised his arm in a salute and went away. Later he returned,
wearing his old kahki uniform and carrying flowers. These he
laid one by one along the edges of the path leading to the
Americans' house, as a sign ot mourning.
This special story to the New York Times ended "II
was the highest honor that he or any other African could pay
to President Kennedy and to the Americans in the house, who
were the only Americans he had ever seen."O.S.

NEW YORK (UPI) - The
woman who is a good wife and
mother is potentially the good
businesswoman if she wants to
start an enterprise.
To Margaret Rudkin, who par
layed a loaf of bread into a
load of dough, running a house
has much in common with run
ning a business. i
She said, "the homemaker is!
the purchasing agent, the pro
ducer of meals, she sells to
the family, she's a promotion
'man,' helping her famliy to
make a good showing in the
community, and she's the fi
nance manager."
The same qualities, "magni
fied to necessity" mean that the
good wife and mother has the
potentials for being the good
businesswoman, said Mrs. Rud
kin, founder -of Pepperidge
Farm, maker of bread and
other food products.
The food business is a natur
al one for a woman, she added.
But Mrs. Rudkin also set up
some warning signs.
"The problem today is one of
getting into a mass market with
enough capital," she s a i d.
"When I started in 1937
things were different. We could
sell to what I always called the
Mamma-Pappa stores. Even the
chains then let the local man
agers decide on the buying."
"Now you have to have more
capital, more room, an advert
ising program . . ."
Mrs. Rudkin, 66, and grand
mother of six, began business
by selling loaves of bread made
of stone ground whole wheat
flour. She developed the loaf
from her interest in good nutri
tion for her own family.
Today, she's chairman of the
board of the multi-million dollar
buisness which was named for
the Fairfield, Conn., farm where
she and her husband have lived
for 35 years.
Her husband, Hanry, was a
stockbroker when his wife sold
the first loaves for 25 cem
each, but as the business gre
he joined it as treasurer. He
now retired, and one of the
three sons, William, is pres
dent. She said the firm ci
rently employs about 2,000 pe
sons.
Mrs. Rudkin recalled durit
a trip to New York that tl
first stove baked eight loavi
at a time and "I thought, wh,
a giant step when we got
stove that did 200 loaves at
time."
For any woman planning
start a business, Mrs. Rudk
warned against over-expansio
loading oneself with debt, ai
over-purchasing.
Gel the reaction of friem
and neighbors to the produ
you propose to sell, she sai
of commerce. And don't 1
Consult your state departme

hand equipment.
"You have to go step I
step," she said, "the way y
walk a mile."
