Ping Pong Ball First
Good Giggle Os Season
By JOAN DEPPA
PARIS (UPI) — Designer
Emanuel Ungaro made the
lowly ping pong ball high
fashion—or at least what looked
like the lowly ping pong ball.
The little white styrofoam
balls he hung all over a white
lace evening cape Thursday
certainly bounced like gable
tennis balls when the model
walked through Ungaro’s ultra
modern salon.
That was complemented by
the gentle clink of the model’s
metal bra, the sort of chastity

belts for the bosom that Ungaro
first Introduced last season.
The ping pong balls were the
first good giggle of the fashion
season, but Ungaro showed
plenty of serious fashion as
well.
Particularly good were long
vests that came almost to the
hem of pleated dresses in paint
box prints by the fabric
manufacturers, Nattier.
After Ungaro is finished with
the Nattier fabrics, they are
sometimes sold to small ready
to-wear houses who try but
never manage to copy the
couturier’s designs.
Black and white were definite
ly Ungaro's favorite colors for
spring, but he also linked
combinations of orange and
bright pink or bright pink and
turquoise, particularly when
they were played off against
black.
He has always liked trousers.
This time Me made them very
wide at the bottom, generally
cuffed and frequently part of a
Jump suit.

NEW YORK—(NEA)—
Manmade materials to dress
up the floor have come a
long way since the days of
printed linoleum. What in
the name of Andy Warhol,
current campus agitators
may ask, is linoleum?
In the days of Bonnie and
Clyde it was a floor covering
made of burlap or canvas
backing topped with a mix
ture of linseed oil with gums,
cork dust or wood flour or
both. And it covered thous
ands upon thousands of
square feet in homes criss
crossing the United States.
Linoleum is still a part of
the floor coverings business
and it has grown up along
with many expensive and
sophisticated techniques that
utilize synthetics.
Especially important now
is the range of designs and
colors worked in today’s
supersynthetic—vinyl.
A designer who has won
awards for utilizing vinyl is

Bill Landrum
particularly pleased with
what he can do with textur
ing the material.
According to Yale Forman,
who heads Yale Forman De
signs and is a consultant for
Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co.,
“Floors should simplify the
problem of decorating
around them. They should be
basic, well-styled and to me
this means the materials
have subtle colors and tex
ture.”
Forman believes we live
in “an eye appeal-oriented
world . . . Nothing can be
styled too well for today’s
style-conscious woman con
sumer.”
For this reason he offers
comments on flooring for
children’s rooms, living
room-dens and foyers.
Forman points out that,
“A child’s room (shown at
left below) takes a good
deal of punishment and for
this reason I would favor a
moppable floor in bright
colors. A random cliffstone
pattern, for example, eases
mother’s cleaning job.”
Judy Harris
Celebrates
10th Birthday
Judy Harris, daughter of Mrs.
Geraldine Harris, celebrated her
10th birthday with a party at the
Silver Skates Roller Rink.
Skating and games were en
joyed.
The honoree received many
gifts.
Those attending were:
Melanie Evans, Debra Rainey,
Mandy Butler, Dottie Palmer,
Leslie James, Dani Peeples,
Jan Giles, Rebecca Sanders,
Kathy Giles, Tim Dertenty, Br
uce Waits.
Janice Roberts, Kim Stinch

Mahon, Dottie McMahon, Becky
McMahon, Randy Harris, Bet
sy Harris, Ricky Harris, Jan
Harris, Jamie Harris, Andy
Harris, Judy Harris.
Mrs. Doris Harris and Mrs.
Geraldine Harris assisted in en
tertaining.
Pauline Llfsey, Thelma Moore,
Mattie Thomason. Mrs. D. L.
Fowler, Wayne Fowler and Jo
anne Vaughn, chairman of the
volunteer patient service.
The volunteers also made a
home visit to Mary Smoak and
carried her a gift.
Those who like the warmth
of a wood floor in a library,
living room or den setting
(top) might try Forman’s
tip to use a parquet in vinyl.
Parquets come in many
tones such as an oak or
chestnut woodgrain or even
a wood-planking with pegs.
He recommends such a
parquet for a sensible, easy
to-clean floor and likes to
top it with an area rug that
picks up an accent color.
In his talking tour of the
home via floor coverings,
Forman stresses that many
overlook one of the most
important areas of the home
when decorating. This is the
foyer or entry hall (right).
“A dramatic hall sets the
whole feel of your home and
apartment. It is, after all,
the first area a visitor sees.”
Many people like special
designs for the foyer but
Forman is fond of a black
and white vinyl tile patters
which he considers very
basic but very dramatic.
