Powers beauty) aEe identical and received exactly the same treatment except that the one on the right is treated with new Aerotex Softener H of the American Cyanamid company. '
 The inset shows laboratory proof of this great difference. The two swatches were cut from the fabrics worn by the models. The soft droopy swatch in the foreground received the Softener H treatment. The much stiffer swatch behind it did not. ? A number of products already on the market, such as underwear and pajamas, have received the Soft ener H treatment.

DOINCS OF THE TEENS
By Barbara Murray

During a recent planning meet ing at the YWCA the younger
 girls voted for a "co-ed program
 for the summer, which is inter- i racial. On July 9 a Game Night started the events. This program is opened to Y Teens only and fellows that are interested. So
 girls, if you aren't Y Teen make sure you sign up in the Fall. There is a "weenie roast" scheduled for , July 16 at Keney Park at 6:3O. There will be games and other activities. Reservations are to be
 made previously.
 Dukes
 On June 30 the Dukes defeated the Charter Oak Elks, formerly the Trojans, at Keney Park. It was
 a do1oleheader with the Dukes
 taking both games. Clay hurled during the first and Cephus and Shephard during the second. The score of the first game was 11-7 and the second 11-3. The lineup for the first game was as follows:
 William Jackson, shortstop, Ro- land Richardson, left field, Clar- ence Blanks, center field, Harold Parker, third base, Harold Michael, catcher, Barney Gaskin, second base, Roger Douglas, right field, Bobby Watson, first base, Dana Clay, pitcher. Cephus started hurl- ing in the first game but the ball split his finger and he was relieved by Bruce Shephard, who pitched a two-hitter. Waymond Black and James Chain were replaced by Harold Michael and William Jack son, respectively. Along with these wins the Dukes slightly injured their record by losing a game at Norwalk, Connecticut, against "The Chips" of the named city.
 No doubt you have all received your invitation to the summer prom which will be given by the Mitoka Club on Friday, July 26. The setting will be that divine place, the Stanley Golf Lodge in New Britain. Superb dance music will be furnished by Clifford Gum and his !SeXtet.
 Come and see your old friends and meet new ones at the Stanley Golf Lodge on July 26. The com mittee in charge includes Mrs. An nie w. Blanks, Mrs. Dixie w. Hayes, and Mrs. Lottie M. John son.

 The bride was dressed in a white lace, princess style gown and car ried beautiful bouquet of Baby Breath and gladiolus. The bride groom wore a white jacket with black trousers. Mrs. Hallie Edney, IT,, was the matron of honor and looked very charming in a rose colored taffetta gown, of princess style. The best man wore U. s. Marine uniform, and is Cpl. Claude D. Edney, Jr. This made the whole ceremony look very distinguished. The bride received all sorts of gifts, both useful and luxurious. Linens, blankets, spreads, dishes and glass wear were among the beautiful, and many gifts that were received.

 That 'fFat" Duval thinks the

 That the DUKES did not enjoy

 That the college fellows in Hart

 our fellows would mind it, girls That the chartered bus which
 carried Union Baptist's young peo- pie to Lake Compounce recently was packed and they really had a fine time.
 That Clyde Board will soon have a. band like his old one; at any rate, let's hope so. Do you remem- Der his "Cherokee?"
 That the Esquire's are reorgan- izing and that will mean another big step back to the old social life. I am sure you haven't forgotten them.
 That the North End Community Center has quite few good pro- grams staged for the teen-agers on Thursdays. There will be out door movies, dancing, a barn dance, and among many other interesting things, there will be crowned a 1 "Coed Sweetheart" and later there will be trip to Lake Compounce.

Notes Along Melody Lane
With. Roland C. Irving

The Melody Boys of our popular Local 335 under the fine leader. ship of President Allie Davis and l Mike Jackson, got together Sun- day, July 7, for the final meeting until Fall. I trust that our Local Union officials will explain to the young and inexperienced members of the Local just what the situa- tion is in Hartford concerning col ored musicians. First; it is very limited, second; there are only a few steady jobs, as far as long engagements are concerned. will gladly name Otto's, Deefield, and Club Alden, which hold a record for years. Just because these young members hold union card, they cannot walk in and demand, un- less they can produce, then take a night off to fill a one night en- gagement elsewhere, with a Ia 2 minute notice, and send a non union man to till his place. The sooner we get together on these things, I believe one of our four local radio stations will open the door and welcome us.
