the walls? Should the CELL
ing be the same color?
Answer. 1t seems that
your room needs some warm
color in it and rust might
do the trick as well as seem
appropriate with your Colo
NAL furniture. For an UNI
usual effect you might paint
your ceiling to match the
taupe carpet. keeping the
walls eggshell. but do this
only if the ceiling is high
enough. Otherwise match
ceiling and walls.
Question: would like to
repaint my living room,
kitchen and dining room
wall. Now they are all rose
tan. My problem is where to
begin with one color and
where to start the next. for
the rooms are in an L shape
with a divider between kitch-
en- and dining room.
Answer-The walls Of all
rooms should be treated SIM
ilarly but it is possible to use
a second color on some Of
the walls by changing. say.
the end wall of the living
room. This is most easily &C
complished by using two
tones of the same color
light and medium blue, for
example. / have also seen
homes in which each of the
walls was printed a slightly
different tone of the same
shade so that walls seemed TO
blend into each other rather
thar contrasting.
QuestiOn-An uncle of mine
recently gave me a beautiful.
large tapestry he brought
back from Belgium. He is
very sensitive and / usually
like to display his gifts. I
am not sure. however, if it is
currently popular to hang a
tapestry in the living room
or den. 1t is very large and
could go over the sofa. May
1t be used with any period
Of furniture?
Answer-A tapestry, like a
picture. may be regarded as a
work of art and will fit in with
any traditional or modern
furnishings. Use it over a
large piece like a sofa, but
beware conflicting patterns
in upholstery or other works

A Young Mans Room
By BETTY PEPlS
Contributing Writer

Somehow 1t seems a lot
simpler for the amateur dec
orator to cope with furnish
ing her daughters room than
to accomplish the same task
for the young men in the
family.
The clouds of pink fluff
and white organdy so appeal
ing to little girls are not only
inappropriate for boys but
won't Withstand the newt
able masculine onslaughts.
A carefully considered color
scheme is one element that
can create a look that is
young and gay yet appropri-
ately male in flavor. The navy,
white and gold of a sailors
get-up, the khaki and black
worn by army men. the slate
blue used for an air cadets
uniform all furnish clues to
the kind of tough, muted
colors one associates with the
masculine sex.
Sturdy woods in natural
oil finishes rather than shiny
surfaces are suggested by a
firm that has for many years
specialized in making furni-
ture for children of both
sexes. Ash, oak and chestnut
are examples of the kinds of
wood that can take a great
deal of punishment and be
finished so marks and mar
rings can be concealed with
simple waxing or oiling.
Lining UP the furniture
along the wall and keeping
the room free for play is an
other idea offered by these
experts.
Flexibility is the key to a
successful boys room accord
ing to interior designer Emil
ly Malino. who, as a mother
of three. knows that children
like to push things around.
With a bed on casters and a
table on wheels. the youngster
can rearrange his room at will
for either summer or winter
comfort.
Maintain the masculine
mood in accessories, too. this
designer urges. Textured,
woven shades in place of cur
tains at windows have a more
manufactured look. Eliminate
the frilly spread and use. in
stead, a Hudson Bay blanket,
Navajo rug or Mexican SER
ape as a cover for the bed.
For the floor there are
some newly designed cotton
rugs that would strike an
appropriate note.
Three other necessities in
any young mans room, &C.
cording to Mrs. Malino. are
a bulletin board for import
ant communicates, adjustable
shelves which can be raised
as the child grows taller. and
a mirror.
Questions and Answers

taupe carpeting in my living
room and gold cafe curtains.

MurrOw's Quarrel: Tues
days news stories concerning

reports of strained relations
between him and CHS officials. !"
That may be, but it's my
feeling that if Murrow has
quarrel, it is not with CHS
officials, or CHS or even TV, but
with what has happened and
is happening to radio and TV
in this country. Here are ex-
cerpts from Murrow's fighting

On network management:

But by the nature of the cor
