PAGE EIGHT HERALD AND NEWS, Klamath Falls, Ore. Tuesday, July 14, 1959 Apartment Shown By Reds Not Exactly Sophisticated NEW YORK (API The three room apartmrnl displayed at the Soviet Exhibition of Science, Tech nology and Culture at the Coli seum here is furnished in a man ner reminiscent of rural Ameri ca 25 years ago. There is shower equipment im posed almost as an after-thought on a high bathtub. In the bedroom, a homemade coverlet of printed cotton gauze covers the bed and matching fab ric is used on a lampshade. The kitchen looks as if it had been built to suit the needs ol rewlyweds. The refrigerator is at one end of the tiny pullman style k'tchen. the stove at the other. The apartment and furniture is small-scale because, says Miss Olga Bayar, the Soviets are build ing apartments at such a fast pace. "Our furniture is not as sophisti cated as American furnishings," she admits, "hut it is much like some of the modest furniture dis played here." Storage space predominates in the tiny rooms of the model apart ment; furniture and cabinet de signs are old-fashioned by our standards of sophisticated decora tion. Color schemes would not appeal to our decorators. Strawberry and gray vinyl squares on the bath room lloor establish the color mood for the area with pink plastic tiles on the walls and a strawberry shower sheet. Bedroom colors are pink, yel low and gray. The bed has a head board with compartments on eith er side. A huilt-in vanity table is in the storage and closet unit along one wall. Two paintings, a chair and a desk-like piece com- i ntpte lhf room which Minn Ravarl estimated would cost 3.500 rubles '$350i to furnish, without either the machine-made or the hand made oriental rus used on the iioor. The hoys' bedroom consists of two beds, two work tables, and a storage unit with laminated plastic sliding doors. The furniture is varnished pine. A large built-in storage unit dominates the wall of the living dining area "This storage unit is a brand new idea in Hussion liing," Miss Bayar explains. "I decorated this room around this painting of birch trees by Gritziay," she points out, referring to the color scheme of black and beige, relieved by a chair up holstered in a red print labric. Walls are painted driftwood beige, drapery fabric stretches across one window in a design to give the effect of birch trees The living-dining room, she says, would cost about S,5)0 rubles '$5501 to match in the Soviet Un ion exclusive of the very expen sive large oriental rugs, "not typical of a floor covering in a modest Russian home." The walnut furniture is on sin) pie lines. It consists of a dining room table, four chairs, a red up holstered chair, a studio lounge "for one guest," and a coffee table with a handle across its top for easy moving Miss Bayar, a member of the academy of architecture and con struction in Moscow says she is a specialist in interior decoration. That and her know ledge of English got her the job of explaining the Soviet apartment in America Siskiyou Trustees Board Accepts Classroom Bids Boy To Lead Air Safari To Bring Scientist Goods NAPLES.

Bobby put these thoughts in a letter In Lindsay. "I want to help Dr. Schweitzer," he wrote. "I have asked my fath er to buy some medicine. He told me he would buy me as much as he can if a way is found to have it delivered to Dr. Schweitzer, 'As I have not succeeded in finding any other solution, I think that your planes, if they go where Dr. Schweitzer Is, could deliver the medicine for me. "Maybe other persons also will feel what I feel and will olfcr medicine loo." Bobby closed the letter with an apology for not going through channels through his father, that is. Lindsay was impressed by the letter. An Italian officer on his staff told the Italian state television network about it. An. appeal went out over the network. Gifts of medicine for Schweitzer started to pour in. Some persons sent bottles of aspirin. An Italian pharmaceutical firm dispatched $350,000 worth of sup plies, a NATO spokesman said. French and Italian air force of ficers arranged for two flying ircightcrs one French, one Ha lian to carry the 9,000 pounds of medicines (o Schweitzer.

They will reach Libreville, in French Equa torial Africa, Friday. Then they will go by truck to Schweitzer's hospital at Lambarane. Schweitzer is expecting them He already has sent his thanks to Bobby and Lindsay. YREKA - The A. J.
