went to jails in Maryland Satur-
day night as an aftermath Of
a day Of making rounds Of res
taurants refusing to serve Ne
groes.
There were 20 under arrest in
Baltimore, 10 in Annapolis and
one in Ferndale Station in Anne
Arundel County.
What started out as peaceful
mass picketing by more than
800 students, members Of the
Congress Of Racial Equality and
others, late in the day turned
into a big job for police.
Target Of the drive in Balti-
more was Hooper's restaurant
or w. Fayette Street. A group
of nine rushed their way in and
remained until warrants were
served. They were then taken
to police headquarters.

Ceiling Treatment
Ceiling design, too, plays
a big role in setting the
character Of a room. For
English Tudor. a beamed
ceiling is almost a must, and
the beams should be of the
square-arch type or should
be decorative rafters. Again,
fir stained to match the wall
paneling should be used.
Other distinctively Tudor
touches, such as small-paned
windows and loaded glass,
can be use in the room. Fur

An added advantage in

taken off when you move.
Other Tips
Other tips she suggests:
Use silks on contemporary
furniture when combining it
with antiques.
Tie a room together by re-
peating the color Of draperies
in throw pillows.
Felt should be finished off.
Use an inexpensive braid
around it.
Fine old draperies may be
found at auctions; bad parts
may be cut away to give you
enough fabric for swags or
draperies.
Wood gives warmth to a
room and it can grow in
beauty if it is waxed or
busted every day.
Try out color schemes US
ing big swatches rather than
little slivers Of color. You'll
get a truer picture Of it.
When highlighting a room

furniture make sure you've

that the piece is not lost in
