Tableware Goes Contemporary
By AILEEN SNODDY
Newspaper Enterprise Assn.
NEW YORK—(NEA)—The
baby of the tableware field is
growing up. A major reason
for this is the importance of
the leisure or vacation home
plus the continued eating out
during the summer. This
usually means your own patio
or as guests of neighbors for
a cookout.
In many homes a well
designed melamine set of
dinnerware bridges the gap
between the family china and
the place settings for guests.
Melamine designs and color
have come so far that they
truly fit the contemporary
scene. A shrewd move on the
part of the designers has been
to select styles that best meet
the. use and material of such
[dinnerware. According to
Joseph Runza, design director
for the melamine division of
Lenox, “We’re designing mel
amine with a contemporary
approach to informal enter
taining . . . instead of trying
to duplicate traditional china
patterns.”
Sculptured effects are very
important. In line with this
look are new concepts with
plates that are thin and ap
pear highly lacquered, with a
deep rim that allows for more
surface design. An especially
effective design in this field
are cups that are straight
sided and stack.
Because of his closeness to
design, Runza often is asked
to create table settings. For

CASUAL BUFFETS TAKE on co-ordinated look with new designs in melamine dinner
ware. These punctuate the fact that odd pieces of tableware and flatware no longer
fit the mood of the modern hostess. Daisy motif here is in black and white with new
design cups that stack, with or without saucers. Table-setting designers for Lenox
ware recommend repeating daisy motif in floral centerpiece and a napkin lining in
the bread basket.
casual, colorful entertaining,
he offers these suggestions:
• Choose a theme. A
simple motif, perhaps a floral
design, sets the mood.
• Pick up accent colors
from the dinnerware in selec
ting table coverings and nap
kins.
• Mix and match with con
trasting napkins and table-
cloth or prints with solids and
prints.
• Sew your own decora
tions with inexpensive cot
tons or a sheet of vinyl that
just needs cutting. Also shop
for new designs in paper
place mats.
• When selecting a center
piece, go overboard with an
oversized paper or cloth
variety of flowers. They’re
very big, have many uses and

Runza points out it is only suc

Betty Canopy
Into Each Life, a Little Rain ...
By BETTY CANARY, Newspaper Enterprise Assn.
I was interviewed the other day and, be
lieve me, it was an experience. When you
write for a newspaper, the hand holding the
pencil is usually your own. But it was inter
esting being on the other side of the note
pad.
When the little girl from the school maga
zine called on me things were in pretty good
shape in the living room. What I ‘hadn’t
picked up I had managed to push under.
And, I felt I was prepared with all the perti
nent facts. But, things didn’t go the way I
expected. It started out O.K. but after that I
lost ground. Actually, I had a landslide.
“How do you feel when you write?” she
asked.
“Oh, with my fingers!” I said. (I always
have the mistaken idea kids think old jokes
are funny.)
“Writers drink a lot, don’t they?” She was
looking behind the books now—for anything
I might have stashed away, I guess.
“Well, just a little champagne for break
fast,” I quipped, pushing her away from the
bookcase.

I plucked nervously at my slacks. She was

“Well,” I said, thrusting her into a chair,

“I’ll bet you have a wild wardrobe for

I gave up and refilled the candy dish for
