Regardless of what type of

They are difficult for a small

POLLY’S POINTERS
Wash or Dry Clean
Stained Draperies?
By POLLY CRAMER
pq 11 y' $ Problem
| DEAR POLLY—I have champagne-colored, antique ft
| satin draperies and during a rainstorm two of them 3
| got wet, I did not see the two large rings until the j
j curtains were dry. I have tried several sprays and a ||
| brush with soap and water but the stains stay. Would ||
I it be best to have these draperies dry cleaned or Ji
I should I try washing them?—MßS. J. F.
DEAR POLLY—The other day I was watching a woman
eating lunch while trying to read a book. It is a problem
to try to eat and keep a book open but if you place a knife
across the pages it will hold them open. I have gone one
step further by putting some pages between the tines of a
fork and letting it hang out at the side. This works best if
the book is propped up.—IRENE
DEAR POLLY—The alu
minum arms on our lawn
chairs made our arms
black so I covered them
with adhesive-backed paper
in a wood grain pattern.
They now look like wooden
arms and are so easy to
keep clean.—MßS. W. A. F.
DEAR POLLY-Vacation
time is here. On a long car
trip sit on your bed pillow.
It will absorb a lot of the
shock of the ride and you will be about half as tired. A
corduroy cover can be made to go over the regular pillow
case and at night one can sleep on the piIIow.—MALLIE
DEAR POLLY—I always save the bows from gift pack
ages but many times they would be crushed before I would
need to use them. I solved this by taping them all to the
inside of my linen closet door. They look pretty when the
door is opened and I can easily choose a needed color as
they are spread out in front of me.—MRS. B. C.

NEW YORK — Wendy Dascomb, Miss USA for 1969, likes hats. The New Orleans
beauty who participated in the recent Miss Universe pageant, models a floppy brim
med creation she received while visiting the Millinery Institute of America in New
York. The new Miss USA will travel extensively in the next year.
She Likes Big Hats
By PATRICIA McCORMACK
NEW YORK (UPD—“So you i
like Italian food,” I said to :
Wendy Dascomb, Miss U.S.A,
for 1969.
”1 do?” she replied, her eyes 1
as quizzical as her voice.
“Yes. It says right here on '
page two of your biography
from the Miss U.S.A, office,” I
said, showing her the place.
She read it. 1
“Just say I like all food,” 1
Miss Dascomb, 19, said.
At that moment Miss Das
comb had come face to face
with one of the facts of life as a
beauty queen. Characteristics
listed on the biographies don't
always suit the queen to a T,
I've learned after scores of
interviews with queens over the
years.
One Wasn't Listed
One of Miss Dascomb’s
outstanding characteristics
wasn’t listed.
“I get sick if I lose any
sleep,” she said. She proved it
when going back to Virginia to
keep some appointments as
Miss Virginia, which she was
before becoming Miss U.S.A.
“I just had too much to do, I
lost sleep and I got sick,” she
said. “I always do if I lose
sleep.”
How Miss Dascomb, of New
Orleans, La., got to be Miss
Virginia is another matter. She
.entered the contest as Miss
Virginia because she was
nominated from Stratford Col
Nora Aponte of Rome says
the only definite thing that can
be said in fashion today is that
everyone has heard enough
about skirt lengths. “Designers,”
she says, “are indefinite about
skirt lengths, and far too
permissive. Also, after extremely
short skirts, I can’t help feeling
that most people have had
enough of legs; I mean of
showing them and also of seeing
them.” Miss Aponte did her
saying at a speak-in featuring
members of Montgomery Ward’s
Designer Advisory Council.
Other members of the council
include Rudi Gernreich and
Simonetta, the Parisian
couturiere.

Alberto Fabiani, of Rome,
. says the words elegant and
luxury have new meanings on
the fashion scene. “At one time
they only meant money,” he
said at a Designers’ Speak-In in
New York. “Only the very rich
could afford them. But now
there is the elegance of looking
natural and being completely at
ease, secure in the knowledge
that whatever you are wearing is
working for you, not fighting
you. And the luxury comes with
’ood style and newness of color
and fabric.”

“Couture is dead; long live
pseudo couture — I mean the
indifference of dressing the
offhand, insouciance of mood,”.
John Moore said in introducing
his fall and winter collection.
“What a wonderful time for
everyone — the little dress. Slip
on, slip off; the incorporation of
jewelry not as a decoration but
as an integral part of the
costume — as jewelry belts,
boleros, neckties, gloves.” He
said there is no excuse for
non-fashion in this new era of
doing your own thing when you
put yourself together.

she just completed her fresh
mon year.
“I didn’t think I had a chance
to win,” she said. “In fact I
didn’t even tell my friends I
was entered. For the pageant, I
borrowed a dress.”
Will Travel
During the next year, the new
Miss U.S.A will travel, reigning
at supermarket openings and
exhibits featuring products,
including some from firms
sponsoring the pageant. She

television appearances.
Such is the life of most
beauty queens, starting with
the most famous of all, Miss
America.
So far she has received $5,000
and other gifts. For the year’s
work ahead, Miss Dascomb
said she will receive a salary of
$5,000.
There are additional gifts
along the way. When she was in
New York the other day the
Millinery Institute of America
gave her a wardrobe of hats—
little hats, big hats, soft hats,
hard hats.
She had one of the gift hats.
It had a floppy brim.
“I like hats,” she said,
"especially when I travel.” And
that, of course, made the
Millinery Institute of America
very happy.
