scheme, however, to alternate.
Avoid monotony.
Learn to do as many jobs
as possible in rhythm. A con-
tinuous motion is less fatigu-
ing than angular movements
or sudden changes of direc-
ton. Coal miners trained to
swing a pick in circular
fashion - instead of back
wards and forwards in a
straight line-increaSed their
output 16% and were less
fatigued.
Scald dishes in the drainer
and let them dry without wip-
ing.
Have tables and other
working surfaces at the right
height for you. They may
have been planned for a
woman six inches taller or
shorter than you are.
Store things so they'll be
as close as possible to the
place where you use them.
You and your daughter can
chart the movements you
make in, for instance, turn
ing out a batch of mullins.
Make a diagram. You'll prob
ably be astounded to see how
many unnecessary steps
you've taken. You can save
literally miles of walking. in

Liza Settles Down at Last
MoriIyn Savage Chooses Virginia
BY SUSAN POWERS
Contributing Writer

Liza Doolittle" was her
name-before marriage.
Now it's Marilyn Taylor
Savage, wife of a District
area attorney and the moth
er of 3-week-old Juliet Eliz-
abeth.
Understudy to the. title
role in MY Fair Lady" with
the national touring COM
pany for two and a half
years, Marilyn took center
stage in both Chicago and
Los Angeles to play the most
famous flower-Seller of them
all.
Now a darlington (Va.)
housewife, she left the show
last summer to marry Bill
Savage, after a courtship
packed with enough happy
circumstances to delight most
any playgoer.
Met in Florida
The couple met in Florida
in 1854, while both were COL
lege students on vacation.
Two years later they re-met
in st. Louis, where Marilyn
was playing in the national
company Of PLAIN and
Fancy" and Bill was stationed
with the Air Force.
The third time worked the
romantic charm. In the
spring SO. My Fair Lady"
played Detroit. Bill, then
attending the University of
Michigan Law School, took a
night off to see the show,
spotted Marilyn from his seat
in the audience, and sent her
a note backstage.
They were married that
summer in Los Angeles.
Marilyn's resignation from
the theater was a temporary
one, though. Right now, while
little Juliet gurgles over her
bottle. Marilyn is practicing
the scales in anticipation of
a new role. and it's thanks to
her husband that she is back
in show business.
The up-coming production
is Menotti's The Old Maid
and the Thief" to be pre-
Sented by the American Light
Opera Company, a newly or
ganized group founded by
some of Bills fellow alumni
from the Michigan Law
School.
In the Show
In this show, Marilyn will
play one of the leads, SER
want girl. But you can't
really compare the role with
that of Eliza" admitted the
former leading lady of the
past decades smash musical
hit.

blouse is evidentally pulling
up in the center back, and
poking out at the bottom.
The underarm seam probably
says and the front neck line
may be pulled back.
This usually happens if you
have round shoulders, roll
of flesh at the back of your
neck, or prominent shoulder
blades. This is a difficult,
sometimes impossible altera-
ton to make after a dress is
cut out. since you need more
length between the neck and
shoulder blades.
However, you can try re-
fitting the dress by ripping
and releasing the back shoul-
der seams until the grain of
fabric is straight across up
per back. Reflt the shoulder
seam letting it out near the
neckline and taking it in at
the armhole. You may also
find that you must rip the
underarm seams and refit the
lower back. Take in the un-
derarm seams in the back and
trim armholes if back extends
up into it Zig. g..
If this doesn't work, then
there is nothing you can do
unless it is a dress you have
made and you have extra
fabric. Then, you can take
the blouse apart, and add a
shoulder yoke.

SEAMS
TO NE
Different Figure Problems
Call for Varied Alterations
BY PATRICIA SCOTT
By PATRICIA SCOTT

by fA1 1hlCIA SCOII
Often, you will see two diff
ferent pattern alterations for
what seems to be the same
figure problem.
For instance, the usual al
teration used for enlarging
a pattern at the waistline is
simply to slash the blouse
front and back straight up
almost to midpoint of arm
hole. Then you spread pieces
the necessary amount.
This is fine if you have a
large waistline with excess
measurements evenly distri-
buted. and a fiat tummy. But
if your problem is a large
abdomen, then only the front
bodice piece is altered, and
in a different way. The pat
tern must be made larger be-
low the bust and around the
waist. Also, it may be neces-
sary to add more length to
the center front.
II only a little is to be
added, draw a cutting line
across the bust line Gig. u.
Cut along this line. almost to
the edge of the underarm.
Then move section B down at
center front until the pattern
is wide enough and long
enough. Extend the center
front line from section A and
join to the lower edge of
section B Gig. p.
If a great deal must be
added, draw cutting lines as
illustrated in fig. 3. Cut along
these lines. Then spread
section B away from sections
A and C until the bust is
wide enough. Lower section
c an even distance below sec
ton A to lengthen the waist
and be sure to keep the
center front line straight
Zig. ~.
A problem often found on
ready-made dresses, is dag
onal wrinkles that fall from
the shoulder blade to the
underarm Gig. 81. The

Fuel Tax Receipts
Showing Decrease

Receipts from motor fuel taxes
in Delaware for the month of Sep
tember showed decrease in COM
parison with the same month of
last year, according to a report re-
leased by James j. Deputy, Secre-
tary of the State Highway Depart
ment and Administrator of the Mo-
tor Fuel Tax Division.
The receipts for September of
this year, which were received dur
ing the month of October, totaled
$783,334.61. This is a decrease of
$42,653.84 over the amount receiv-
ed during the same month of last
year but an increase of $82,409.58
over the amount received during
September of 1858.
Motor fuel tax officials are in
clined to the belief that the visit
of Hurricane Donna, early in Sep
tember, causing a quick close to
resort areas, may have accounted
for some of the decrease.
The motor fuel taxes received
during September covered the sale
of 15,666,6 gallons of motor fuels,
a decrease of 853,078 gallons in
comparison with the amount sold
in September of last year
Mr.. Deputy reported that during
September a total of SO concerns
were bonded as motor fuel distribu-
tors in this state and of this num-
ber, IL reported no sales for the
month.
Six other concerns reported sales
that accounted for $525,820, or 81
per cent of the tax money received
during the month. These concerns,
with the amount of taxes paid by
each, were Atlantic Refining Co.,
$8S,. ,.413.40; Gulf Oil Co., $93,382.4 As {;
Humble Oil and Refining Co., $685.

he spotted the youth hitchhiking
on Route 13, about two and a half
miles north of Bridgeville.
The youth seemed to answer a
description of one of the providers
observed near a farm in middle
town recently and who is wanted
for questioning in the Money muir
der.
The youth was about six feet,
and blond hair and was wearing a
leather jacket.
Captain Wentz stopped his car
and as he was in civilian clothes,
identified himself as police
officer. He started to question the
youth who suddenly turned about,
ran from the highway, and sprinted
toward a woods.
The Bridgeville troop was alerted
shortly after 6 pm, and believing
possibly that the youth might be
suspect in the Middletown muir
der, offduty men were also called
i'm as were troopers from George
town and Dover, Cheswold town
police and other town officers also
joined in the hunt conducted under
freezing conditions. Auxiliary po-
lice and the Bridgeville Fire Com
pany also responded as did a civil
ian posse.
The woods were checked and
highways searched until nearly To-
pm. Floodlights from the fire
truck illuminated portions of the
woods in an attempt to locate the
youth.
State police who knew the back
ground of youth living in Uhler-
Vile, located between Bridgeville
and Greenwood, and realizing he
answered the description of the
sought person, went to his home
They found he was missing.
They returned shortly before 10
and found him home. He admitted
he was running away from home
when stopped by Captain Wentz
and fled when he realized the lat
ter was police officer.
