NEW YORK, L'TANYA -
Hollywood's gift to the fashion
world, came to town and real

lovely creations. L'Tanya was
in Chicago for the Urban

Hotel, with Chicago behind
her, LTanya came on to New
York with some of her new
elegant summer designs. She
was wined and dined every
night - fitting to the Copa-
cabana for Eartha Kilt, the
Waldorf Astoria for Dorothy
cambridge, ''Three for To-
night" for Harry Belafonte,
etc. Incidentally she stayed at
the Waldorf Astoria for the
seven days and the business

walked through that fabulous

parts, since they will be given
more prominence with warm
weather apparel. While new ac-
cessories can perk up an old
dress, new dress cannot revive
worn accessories. On the con-
trary, nothing calls more critical
attention to a worn OF wrinkled
handbag or other accessory than
a sparkling new dress, so be sure
to give your accessories the at
tention and importance they de-
serve.
And Now Flowers
Crown your browning glory
with flowers for a change. De-

attractive blossoms (artifcial

a bit flirtatious.
Hispdnic Motif
Saffron yellow and torero
pink are borrowed from the ex-

appear in dramatic new cotton
prints this summer. You'll see
prints adapted from old Spanish
shawls, accessories in the brill

which are authentic copies of
those worn by bull fighters.

First made to initiate sill
yer, luStres appeared on pot
terry made in England.
No satisfactory silver colors
had been discovered through
the many experimentation
carried on by English potters
and the first silver lustre
made resembled steel so much
that it was labeled "steel
lustre."
Experiments continued how
ever, and in due time, this
metallic color became one Of
great beauty and was much
in demand.
Plain silver lustred articles
became tiresome however, and
in due time, simple orna-
mental designs were applied
on the pottery.
Yellow, cream or white
bodies were preferred for add
ing the lustres although pink
and blue bodies were also
used.
Warm shades Of gold lustres
became as popular as the
silver. and the resist patterns
are perhaps better explained
as follows: a white surface
or other light shade was pre-
ferably laid upon the clay
body, then the outline painted
on with glycerine or some
other preparation. which
might become detached in
water.
The whole pattern was lust
red over with a chosen met
allie solution after which it
was partly dried. The art
icle was then washed in
water and the glycerine pre-
paration covering the outline
was washed off, the metallic
solution resisting the water.
The ware was next fired.
The Leeds potteries in Eng
land, became famous for their
lustre products and one of
their chief characteristics is
the bluenesS of their glazes.
The Wedgwood factories al
so produced fine specimens
in lustre, with we'll designed
patterns Of flowers, birds and
other small animals.
The better of lustre wares
are marked according to their
manufacturers.
A collection OF lustred war
es may become a most at
tractive display. The pink,
gold, copper, silver and blue
lrstres add much color and
brilliance to groupings of
chinaware.
The Essex Institute has a
good collection on display.

First Silver Lustres
Had Steel Likeness

There is an English lustre
tea-set in mulberry color:
several cups made by Sunder-
land; some silver lustre dated
1920 from the Staffordsl1ire
potteries.
Bronze and silvered pitch
ers, some having blue lustred
bands for decoration.

year Of his life schening tc
outsmart the young lady who
had borne him a baby girl.
But for some reason, most
of us have long ago accepted
Williams for what he really
is, and always will be.
He's a cold, calculating
businessman. He plays
baseball only because Of
the money he can take out
of it.
He IS back at Fenway
Park only because his
wife's attorneys were wise
to all his conniving and
scheming from the very
day that he announced
his retirement from the
game.
The same alimOny set
Element that the court or
dered last Wednesday,
was offered to Williams
last March.
He could have agreed to pay
then, and Joined the Red
Soy of Sarasota
He could have worked him
self into shape, and been rea-
dy to play on opening day.
The Sox needed his exper-
fenced bat to offset the in
experienced rockies on the
roster.
His decision to do all Of this
last spring would have been
welcomed news by Tom Yaw-
key, the man who stood by
him through thick and thin
and made him wealthy as &
young man.
They can say that Williams
has returned now because Of
his high regard for Yawkey.
But his loyalty for Tom
Yawkey, we say, was put to
a test last March, when Will
liams turned a deaf ear and
announced he would fight the
alimony fight to the bitter
end.
Ted's public relations
department has been
Boosting in print that he
has been sending his wife
SIPS weekly alimony since
the day they separated.
This sounds like a gem
erOus guy until you give
1t a double look. When
williams walked out on
his wife, he left her alone
In a $4,000 home.
The house was not hers
to sell or hers to rent. 1t
was owned iointly by man
and wife and her only
choice was to live in 1t
with her daughter and pay
the bills.
In these surroundings,
then, figure out what was /
left Of her SIPS weekly
allowance on Saturday
night.
These intimate facts Of a
mans private life are offered
here only for the purpose Of
reminding you that Williams
gives that same keen look 1T
the dollar bill as he does to
a baseball when swinging a
bat.
His popularity in baseball
rests on a controversial nature
that creates excitement, ra-
ther than on his personality
When he comes to the plate
The guardian. [volume] (Boston, Mass.) 1901-1960, 1955-05-21

die may go looking for
that guy who once said
"Tt's the Woman Who
Pays"
But, in the spirit of
wishing Tom Yawkey and
Joe Cronin well, we join
the sporting populace of
New England in greeting
williams back to the fold.
His tantalizing moods may
we'll be offset by the many
kind things he is known to
have done for needy causes.
Well sit on the edge Of our
seat like the guy next to us,
and let out a yelp If he belts
it over the fence.
Well stand in admiration of
a great slugger as he rounds
third base and heads for
home.
But, as Col. Egan once said.
that's not to say we'd enjoy
inviting him to our house for
dinner.

Money, Not Baseball
Brought Ted Back


will have fans sitting on the
edge of their seats, and OPP
posing pitchers suffering from
the filters.
But rest assured that Will
Jams will be up there view
ing the proceeding from a
strict business angle, decid-
ing. whether it's best to ac-
cept a pass or swing at a
doubtful strike, to retain his
rating as a 100000 ball play
er.
It will matter little to
Mr.. Finnan Haddie, whe-
ther the Sox finish first
OF last, providing he can
place the stamp or ap-
prevail on his own indiv-
iduaI performance.
It's the 100000 that he
wants, and it's the 100000
for which nell work. Will
Iiams viii take care of
williams. The other Sox-
ers must take care Of
themselves.
With the count 81 and the
winning run on third, Will
liams will decide what is best
for Williams as the big pitch
approaches the plate. If it's
an inch outside the strike
zone, and not to his liking,
you may be certain that Ted
die boy will watch 1t go by
and walk to first base.
If some $50 hitter coming
up next can't knock home
the run, that will be his
fault, and Ted won't worry
about 1t.
This is Williams as only
Williams can be. Ii you want
to accept him as is, he will
provide you with some inter
esting hours Of baseball ex-
element.
He'll never win a popular
ity contest; and cares less.
Two years after joining the
Red Sox he still wanted to
be a fireman.
Nowadays he does not hide
his preference to go fishing
And it is fishing he would
go, now, if his wife hadn't
called his bluff and made
him pay, but good.
We recall a letter that
Bud NOonan sent us last
spring while he was visit
ing the Sox camp at Sar-
asOta.
He sat with General
Manager Joe Cronin one
afternoon and asked him
what was new On Will
Iiams.
Cronin, a iight-hearted
IRISH lad with a sense of
humOr to spare, covered
his face with a playful
grin as he answered the
question.
"Williams isn't thinking
Of baseball right now"
said Joe. He's spending
most of his time in legal
conferences and his wife
has got him over the bar
rel"
She "barrel-ed" him, in fact
to the tune of $125 900, plus a
private money settlement he
had previously arranged for
his daughter.
After the judge had spoken
sat in the back room
while his accountants did a
little figuring.
And, after balancing the
bank book, they Informed MIR.
