A feature of the Home Eco
Monies layout is a modern

words, two sections Of the
kitchen are separated from
each other by a sampling
bar, each unit with duplicate
equipment which permits
special testing in one area
while routine work proceeds
uninterruptedly In the other.
Or, when the occasion re-
quires, while developing
quantity recipes for school
lunch and other uses both
units can be operated on a
co-ordinated basis.
In addition, a dining room
capable of being converted to
a conference room Is pro-
vided, to facilitate the testing
of newly developed recipes on
staff volunteers. The dining
room can accommodate as
many as IS samplers. The
entire setup Is designed to
carry out thorough testing of
recipes and to simplify photo

tors who want to know how

That Accent,

BY Howard c. Heyn
HOLLYWOOD.


How about it, Dixieland? Here
in Hollywood they're saying you
are losing your Southern accent.
Hollywood could be wrong; 1t
wouldn't be the first time. But
two men who have just returned
from q survey made in the deep
South say the words don't sound
so sugary these days.
They listened to the speech OF
more than 200 persons, most OF
them from Georgia and Northern
Florida. Two hundred-or 1000
interviews might not be conclu-
sive. but the point is that Casting
Director Phil Benjamin and Dia-
logue Director Gene Busch were
looking for typical falkland they
had trouble finding it.
II had a hard time convincing
the studio, but it's true: A marked
Southern accent is rare even in
the South" declared Benjamin.
Their search was related to q
picture called Under the Gun,
much Of which is being filmed in
Jacksonville, Fla. 1--WE finally got
our Southern accents" Benjamin
added. but we had to scratch to
do it."
Survives Out of Town.
Busch said the Southern accent
apparently will live longer In rural
areas. Its disappearance seems
most advanced in the big cities.
I'VE found that the farther. we
got from the smokestacks. OF in
dustry, the better our prospects
were of hearing real Southern
speech" Busch related. II have

Of the South is attracting a lot ot
Northern people, including skilled
labor, and that this influx Is help
ing to obliterate old speech pat
terms. A general shifting of pop
ulation during the war probably
was factor"
Busch doesn't believe that
movies and the radio had much
to do with 1t.
my previous visit to the South
was in the early 1940s, and the
impact of screen and radio was as
great then as it is now. Yet the
Southern accent was f1ourishing, "
he said.
Busch even waxed a little sad
about it all:
1T was one of the most beauti-
full speech patterns in the world

For a woman with patience or
O man with resignation, one need
seek no further than the under
studies who stand in the wings
of theaters waiting to pinch hit
for Broadway stars.
They toll not and seldom spin
but they must report backstage
for every performance and wait
there until every player has
checked in. Then they can go on
their way, usually back home to
study the lines of the half-dozen
or more parts which an under
study must memorize for every
show.
The life of an understudy is a
dull one, for most theatrical stars
are robust, healthy people. Some
stars refuse to have understudies,
the shows closing for as many
performances as necessary when
q star is i'll.
