Felt Toblecloths
For a child's party a gay
tablecloth can be made from
red felt with an appliqued red
and white border of Santa
faces and prancing reindeer.
The Santa faces can be re-
peated as place mats on top of
the table. This would allow
much leeway for a gay and
original centerpiece of Santa
at the North Pole which the
children could have much fun
creating.
For an adult party a more
sophisticated effect can be
achieved with the same cotton
felt in pastel shades, decorated
with Sequins and glitter in
flower patterns. The result is
a glamorous table covering
that resembles a queens coro-
nation robe.

changes in Korea started. Later
he and Corpl. Edward Dicken-

minds and were repatriated.
Attorney Joel Westbrook,
Corpl. Bachelors civilian coun-
sci, also indicated yesterday that
he would ask the court-martial
panel to inquire into Corpl.
Bachelors sanity during the
months he was a prisoner.
Earlier, Mr.. Westbrook had
refused to take up the question
of sanity. But he said yesterday
his motion to probe this possi-
bility would concern only the
original charges.
These were alleged violations
of articles of war that forbid
communication with the enemy
and Article 1874 which covers the
alleged writing by Corp. Batche-
lor of letter to the camp news

allegedly used by the United
