Beauty Does Not Count In
Washingfon Beauty Confest
BY DOUGLAS LARSEN
NEA Staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON. — (NEA) — A
diplomatic beauty contest for di
plomatic ladies is Washington's
newest social thrill. The rules are
unique. No contestant has to enter,
yvet every contestant eventually
becomes a winner, Most important,
vou don’t even have to be beau
tiful to win.
“There are a lot of things more
important than mere facial beau
ty,” says Monty Radlovic, sponsor
of the contest. “Take for instance
packground, poise and education.”
Also, he adds sagely, there are
standards for beauty which are
different from those in America.
“A beautiful girl in Rhodesia isn’t
necessacily considered beautiful in
Chicago, and we are going to be
comPletely international about
this,” he explains.
The big event was revealed by
an invitation to a cocktail party
«“To announce the judges’ choice
of the prettiest lady from the
Diplomatic Blue Book.” The State
Department puts out the Blue
Book and the man in charge shud
dered when he heard about the
contest. He quickly disclaimed any
&tate Department connection with
16,
The prominent womren listed as
#organizers” of the event all
claimed they knew nothing of it.
Finzlly, however, Mrs. Marie Mc-
Nair, a society editor who was
listed as one of the judges, admit
ted that she hadn’t done any
judging but said that Radlovic
had the complete story of it.
Monty had all the answers. His
headquarters is a one-room, pa
per-littered office in an obscure
little building on a side street. A
hand-painted sign on the door
pronounces it the headquarters of
“The Diplomat,” which Monty ex
plains is a fortnightly publication
giving all the inside dope on the
town’s diplomatic set.
Monty admits he was a major
in the British Army in the last
war and claims 16 years with the
Reuters news agency. He is a
British subject and obviously
well-known in the diplomatic set.
He modestly agreed that the
contest was a swell promotion
idea for the nragazine. He said no
body’s feelings would ever be
hurt because each issue would an
nounce a new winner. He thought
everybody in town would be ter
ribly interested in it, and he was
dead right.
The cocktail party cannouncing
the first winner was a whale of
a success. Senor Guitan, a short,
dark, enthusiastic young South
American diplomat, explained
that as judge he had helped select
entries “from among those girls
whom we all recognized as the
most pretty of the diplomatic set.”
Most of the gals nominated as
entrants weer on hand for the ver
dict. Madame Raza, a really love
ly brunette, wife of the Pakistan
Militarq Attache, said that it
didn’t mean much to her one way
or the other who won.
Miss Margaret Thors, much
publicized daughter of the Minis
ter from Iceland, dashed in, de
manding to know where the bar
was located. When seh was asked
whether or not she was disap
pointed at not winning, she replied
in a husky contralto voice, “Are
you kiddin’?”
Only conment of the gal most
people thought was the prettiest
girl there, Miss Maria Teresa Cas

A near-invisible chignon net

Net Helps Keep
The Hair Sleek
BY ALICIA HAL.T
NEA Staff Writer
The strays and straggles that
escape from a chignon formed by
their unskilled hands have caused
many women to abandon this coif
fure despite their liking for it.
If you have been discouraged
in your attempts to master a
smooth, sleek version of this hair
do, you mray find helpful a net es
pecially designed for keeping un
ruly chignons in place.
~ The net, which is so fine as to
be nearly invisible, works equally
‘well with your own long hair or
with extra pin-on tresses. If your
chignon is a hair-piece, you may
arrange the net either before or
after pinning it in place, which-

—Blaine R. Kensley says he was
nearly drowned while fighting a
fire.
The city fireman was manning
a hose at a residential blaze when
the hydrant broke. A great gush
of water knocked him against a
nearby engine and the stream
kept beating at him. After cough~

at an emergency hospital for a
fractured collar bone.

Franklin College
Name Restored
The University of Georgia’s Col
lege of Arts and Sciences, the
University’s parent college, has
reclaimed its original name.
Early in University history the
College was known as Franklin
College, in honor of Benjamin
Franklin, and the campus on
which the University buildings
were located was known as
Franklin campus.
The name was dropped several
years ago, but the executive com=
mittee and the faculty of the Col
lege of Arts and Sciences recently
approved a resolution which re
stores the original name and the
College is now called Franklin
College of Arts and Sciences,
The original name was never
dropped officially, according to
Dean S. Walter Msartin. The re
cent action was prompted as a
result of sentiment stimulated by
the Sesquicentennial celebration,
he said.
Save Melallics
BY ALICIA HART
NEA Staff Write r
There’s something about glint
and glitter at nine o’clock on a
dreary Monday that sets on edge
the teeth of most employers. The
same thing holds true for the
other hours of the day, the other
days of the week,
A business office is simply not
the place for the new metallic
fabrics, unless they're very re
strained indeed. Particularly are
they inappropriate when gleaming
gold has been spread liberally
around on a floral print that's al
ready full-blown and opulent
looking,
These prints, which are really
at their best for evening or late
afternoon wear, must be chosen
with extreme caer if you are
planning to go through the day
with them.
There are available a number
of subtly-treated mretallics, such
as the tweedy-looking fabrics shot
through with gold or silver
threads. If you just can’t resist
the shiny new ftrend, it’s best to
restrict your workaday dresses to
this type material.

Adjustments Sei
ATLANTA, July 14-The Offi
of Price Stabilization Friday :
up machinery for making adju
ments in the “food cost per d)ol':
of sales” formula used to detc
mine restaurant ceilings in ca:
where the base period food eost 1
tio is not representive of su
sequent operations, James F, H:
lingsworth, OPS district direc
at Atlanta, announced.
Hollingsworth said that varic
reasons have been advanced w
the base period ratio is not resp:
sentative in all cases. Some of t
reasons given are increased es
ciency, due to installation of
food control system, and a su
‘stantial change in the type a
; manner of operations.
Amended Regulation
The agency amended the rests
rant regulation, CPR 11, to perr
eating establishments to apply
adjustments, but it warned tt
changes will be granted only as
careful consideration of the r¢
sons which caused a different
between the base period ratio a
the requested food cost ratio. T
mere fact that an operator hac
high food cost ratio in his bi
period will not be suficient reas .
to justify an amendment, it v
said.
“There are only two reas: }
which will justify us in mak |
adustments,” said Hollingswo
today. “One of these is the
duction of food costs through m l
efficient operation without |
creasing menu prices or reduc
the quantity or quality of the fc
The other is the showing t |
a resturant operated at a loss d |
ing the base period (the calep, t
year 1949 or the fiscal year e
ing June 30, 1950) greater than {
i loss incurred during the new b
! period the restaurant might be |
' plying for.
Base Period !
' “The new base period would
' a four-month period which the
! taurant operator considers m
! representative of his normal
! erations. However, this new Fo
! month base period must be suk
quent to the previous base per
but before April 1, 1951. Rest
rant operators are cautioned 1
seasonal or temporary factors ¢
not be considered by us in est
lishing a new base period.”
The amendment to CPR 11
comes effective on July 18, F
lingsworth stated.
