Men Fashions
Battle Bulge
LOS ANGELES CUPI) - The
42nd annual convention of the
National Association of Retail
Clothiers and Furnishers moved
into full swing today with a battle
cry to do away with men's
paunches, in styles at least.
Slimness is the word for men's
styles this spring, said Arnold
Michaels, Oakland, president -elect
of the group.
"The new silhouette emphasized
longer lines," Michaels said. "La
pels are longer and narrower.
Trouser legs are also narrower."
All this was designed to make
paunch-sporting men look slender,
he said.
Michaels predicted at the open
ing of the five-day convention
Sunday that men's clothing sales
will increase 10 per cent during
19B0.
Prime laclors in the sales in
crease prediction, he said, were
the additional importance of the
young men's market, more in
terest in sportswear, and the rise
of synthetics and summer ward
robes.
He said sales in men's clothing
were up 7 to 8 per cent last year
It was the first time since 1927
that the men's wear industry had
Increased its share of the con
sumer's disposable dollar.
Solons Ponder
Tax Aid Plan
WASHINGTON (UPI) - Self-
employed persons now stand at
least a 50-50 chance of being
awarded a permanent break on
their income taxes to help them
save retirement tunds.
Prospects that some such leg
islation will become law this year
rose with the disclosure that the
Treasury is modifying its ada
mant opposition. The Treasury
now is drafting a plan of its own.
Informed sources said the plan
ivould be presented soon to sena
tors as an acceptable or at least
less objectionable alternative to
a House passed bill strongly op
posed by the administration.
These sources said the administra
tion might urge enactment of the
Treasury plan.
The Senate is under strong po
litical pressure to approve some
version of the House bill. The
Treasury's action in devloping ah
alternative plan reflects belief
that some legislation probably will
reach the White House.
If a measure is passed. Presi
dent Eisenhower's lax and politi
cal advisers want it to be a bill he
can sign. An election year veto
could have wide political reper
cussions. The House - approved bill would
permit self - employed persons to
defer payment of income taxes on
certain amounts placed in retire
ment funds.
The determent would apply to 10
per cent of income but could not
amount to more than $2,500 annu
ally except for older persons near
retirement who would get a bet
ter break.
The tax advantage would go to
an estimated six to seven million
self-employed persons including
lawyers, farmers, doctors, den
tists engineers, architects, shop
keepers, and unincorporated busi
nessmen who don't have company
pension plans.
The plan being drafted by the
Treasury would exact a price for
the tax relief from some of these
people. It would deny benefits to
any self - employed persons with
employes who don't provide their
workers with a pension. No such
restriction is contained in the
House - passed bill.

LEONTYNE PRICE
Noted Soprano Scheduled
For Concert Appearance
Leontyne Price, who will appear
in Klamath Falls February 26 as
an artist of the Community Con
cert series, is one of the few great
sopranos in the world today,
She attained her eminence as
one or the select few within an
mazingly short time because of
the unusual beauty and richness
of her voice, penetrating artistry,
personal charm and versatility.
In the spring of 1952 Leontyne
Price was an unknown music stu
dent at the Juilliard School of Mu
sic. Today she is one of the most
sought after sopranos in the field
of music, in the leading opera
houses, for recitals everywhere,
and as a featured soloist under
the world's greatest macstros of
symphony orchestras.
It was as Mistress Ford in a
Juilliard School production of Ver
di's "Falstaff," that she first set
waves of excitement vibrating
throughout the music world. She
went on to now-historic success in
the American classic, "Porgy and
Bess, to operatic successes in
Vienna, Berlin, London and Paris,
and in this country.
Her progress as an opera star
has continued in an outstanding
way. Her "Tosca" performance
with the NBC Opera Theater in
1955 over the national network was
memorable event in musical his
tory.
In the fall of 1957 Miss Price
made her debut with the great San
Francisco Opera Company and
went on to triumphs within two
months in three major European
companies, at the Vienna Staat-
sopcr, London's famed Covent Gar
den and finally in' the fabulous Op
era Arena of Verona, Italy.
Her appearances with the New
York Philharmonic and Boston
Symphony, on radio and television
and through her recordings, has
given her great talent to a wide
audience.
She was born in Laurel, Missis
sippi, where she received her first
musical training as a pianist. Her
ambition was to become a music
teacher in public schools.
Her parents sent her to Central
State College in Wilberforce, Ohio,
with that in mind. It was while
singing in the college glee club
that she was first made aware ol
the potentially beautiful voice she
had.
Determined to try her luck as
a singer, she applied for and was
awarded a scholarship in the Juil
liard School in New York. Her
parents were unable to maintain
her in the city, and following her
graduation a Mrs. Alexander Chis
holm, member of a prominent
Laurel family, made it possible
for Leontyne Price to accept the
scholarship.
She met the star of "Porgy and
Bess," the great baritone William
Warfield, during rehearsals. They ,
met in May, were engaged in
June and married in August .1952,
just before the production left
Washington for Vienna, Austria.
Curtain time for her appearance
in Klamath Falls at Mills School
Auditorium will be 8 p.m. Admit
tance is by Community Concert
season tickets only.
This will be the last of the artist
appearances for the 1959-1960 season.
