T marvellous at night"
NORMAN NORELLs American women
tend to look the same daytime and evening, both in
clothes and makeup. In my opinion, this is wrong.
I think woman should look busy during the day,
no matter how eisurely her life is. She should look
as if she's working, has some purpose Therefore,
she should be comfortable, mobile, understated.
believe in terribly simple dresses for day - the very
simplest. Suits should be comfortable, preferably
with loose jackets which are younger and more
becoming to most women and with skirts that are
not too straight. Skirts should have enough room
so that woman get up and walk freely get into
a car easily.
But at night ''whOOp-de-dO'' is the word.
Men like to see women look exciting it won
derful change from the business day. Women in
America are too timid about evening clothes and
makeup. They should look absolutely marvellous,
exotic and extreme at night.
Be careful about your fabric choices for evening.
solid color perhaps satin faille, stands out in
the crowd and can be worn more often than some
thing more complicated. The lines should be clean,
never cluttered If the neckline is low, let it be
really low. Or if you can wear them wear covered

But don't 60 in between - that is just plain dowdy.
If you haven't lots of money, choose fabric -
perhaps heavy faille or lace, lightweight black
wool, or taffeta in beautiful strong color - that
will be good for II months of the year.
Always buy clothes an investment.
If you choose wisely, you can do with many fewer
clothes than you think. Ask yourself, how will it
wear? Will it keep its shape? Will it become dated?
Where will it take me? How does it apply to my life?
If you make good investment in an expensive gar
ment and you wear it five or six years, it doesn't
cost you so much in the long run. The same goes
for shoes and bags Always buy good ones and plan
to keep them long time I'd rather see something
that's good quality worn until it becomes really
shabby than something that's the height of fashion
but in a shoddy material.
In the summer, women should look well-scrubbed
and clean, with cool-looking makeup l shouldn't
say no hat but that's the way feel about it. And
short neat couture I'm in favor of very, very short

suntan "a dark tan makes woman look hard.
Complicated dresses appear hot while simple serene
dresses give cool effect And think opaque stiff
fabrics give cooler appearance than ones that
become limp in the humidity.
Women look cooler in solid colors than in prints,

SALLY VICTOR. A woman should never
buy hat merely because her head is cold or she's
afraid of sunstroke She should buy hat because
it will do something for her.
A hat shouldn't be an extra added attraction -
wear it if your costume calls for it, If you're wear
ing beautiful, low-cut, gamorous. glittering gown
forget about hat. If you're wearing suit, though,
you look half done without hat.
If could buy only one hat, I'd buy the simplest
kind of hat You can always add veil or jewelry
to make it more interesting. black hat isn't always
the thing to buy. You can choose color to match
your ewelry or your dress to contrast with your
suit 1t should be useful for than one occasion
or one hour of the day. Extreme hats for people
who have great many hats already.
How many hats do you need? That depends on
the life you lead, but here's what I'd suggest as a
basic hat wardrobe:
l. A wig-type hat on an elasticized band.
They're great for the times when your hair isn't in
good shape.
g. A draped turban, if you can wear it well in
an all-yearround material such silk jersey. These
are SOFT crushable packable and can be dressed up
with jewelry.
3. A simple tailored hat, such as a sailor or
pillbox worn back or forward. And this year the
large hat looks wonderful because it balances bare
arms so nicely.
a. A hat of yelling or tulle, preferably black,
for parties any time of year.
S. A really dramatic hat, if you're the type.
Wear it only with basic clothes. Remember, the
fancier the costume, the simpler the hat.
Always decide what you want hat to do for you.
Do you want it to make your girl friends jealous?
To make your husband think you look beautiful?
To give you sense of security and well-being?
Remember the clothes in your closet, the places
you'll be wearing the hat - and your own proper
lions. Somehow little woman always wants high
hat with a feather or something sticking up. She
thinks it gives her height but it just calls attention
to her lack of height. She's not in proportion. The
same thing goes for - Continued on page 20

Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1961-09-16

Have you heard the things John B. Funk
has been telling the Montgomery County
Board of Realtors?
You haven't?
Well, John B. Funk is chairman.director
of the State Roads Commission of Maryland.
And he had the nerve to tell us Mont
gomery County people that we're not using
our expressways properly.
Have you ever heard such thing?
He says don't blame the expressways if
you commuters are caught in the urban
crawl. He has the nerve to say that if you
stopped using your cars and started riding
buses, the expressways could do the jobs
they're supposed to do.
Come here and listen.
Funk says that you can figure each car
on the expressway carries an average Of
one and half persons car - and that's
a big laugh, except 1 guess you've got to
let him have his averages.
That way. he says, your modern freeway
can carry 5000 people a lane per hour But
that's not all. He says that's PROBABLY the
most inefficient use possible of an express
way. And that's why expressways get
criticized.
Look he says, these critics compare total
automobile use of the expressway to COM
pletely filled trains and say how much more
efficient trains are than expressways.
But he says that figuring that an ex-
press bus carries IS people, estimates are
that if buses are used for committing the

On The Line

NEW YORK, Sept. 13-You
can now add the brand of grave
robber to the already tattooed
hide of Fidel Castro.
A group of Cuban exiles in
Miami has appealed to Pope
John XIII to intercede in Cas-.
tro's stripping of bodies in
Colon Cemetery, Havana.
What they are really trying
to do is to take over the tornbs,
dismantle them, steal the mar
BILE they were constructed with
and confiscate whatever valu-
ables they may find inside" the
plea to the Vatican reads in
part.
Last Friday was the final day
for owners of cemetery plots to
present themselves to officials
in Havana with proof of such
ownership. A great portion of
such owners have fled Cuba. To
have returned, in behalf of the
dead, would have meant certain
imprisonment or even death.
ut is the intention of the
Cuban Communist government
to disturb our dead, to appropri-
ate jewelry and gold Filings of
our dear departed, and to bury
their hallowed bones in common
mass graves" the Pope has
been informed.

A Few Words
He Could Have Point
By Kent Palmer

freeway can carry $4,000 to 10000 people
lane per hour
And that's the proper way to use an
expressway, he says.
He doesn't stop there.
Funk told those realtors that the express
way can pump in new blood and keep the
old flowing smoothly if it is properly used
1t can serve a community for indefinite
periods of time if it is properly used.
But even though agencies have worked
OH existing streets, improving them, making
them safer and more efficient, traffic has still
slowed to a crawl.
He says those of us who are critical of
the expressways should aim our fire at the
proper target That way we'd be helping
everybody.
He says, and these are his direct words,
ut is not the expressway which should be
criticized, but it is the use of the expressway
which needs revision"
Well, now, those are mighty strong
words for man with the roads commission
to be using, telling you commuters you're
barking up the wrong tree when you sit and
cuss the traffic situation when cars are
backed up from here to Chevy Chase circle
The way ne talks you'd think he was
saying you ought to be cussing yourself ard
that half person sitting there beside you
And that you'd all be better off if you were
riding the bus.
You know +. Let's see, 5000 an hour
and 10000 an hour
You know, he could have point there.

Expedite in a Hurry

We hope John B. Funk wasn't just making nice
sounding speech the other day to the Realtors when
he said he wanted an "Expeditng Committee" to de-
liver betways faster and more efficiently.
At one time Maryland noted for fine high
ways. That was years ago.
Today Maryland has few good hghways-in
fact route 240 is of the finest in the country
but the program of road building has been to skimpy
and executed too slowly.
If another committee can do anything about cut
ting through red tape and up with finished
highways, then Mr. Funks announcement will have
been truly important one.

A few further remarks con.
corning Merrimack Park Rec
reation Association. N
1t is my understanding that
the Zoning Board before
which an extensive hearing"
was held on the subject of
Merrimack Pool is appointed
by the Council. l would as
sumo that the Council consid-
ers the suitability, competence
and experience of appointees
in determining Zoning Board
members. 1t will be interest
ing to see, for example, your
action concerning reappoint-
ment Of Mr.. Bright in view of
his performance as a Zoning
Board member.
1t is also my belief that the
Zoning Board has acted in
violation of its lawful powers
in this matter - as one of the
Zoning Board members indi-
Gated in his dissenting opinion.
Qualification of duties and
powers of this Board should
be undertaken at the appro.
pirate level.
1t is still not clear to me
why the County Attorneys of.
flee initiated the action before
Judge Shure which resulted
in closing Merrimack Pool on
technical grounds. 1 would APP
preciate your forwarding this
letter to the property office for
reply as l am deeply interest
ed in the mechanics within
the County organization which
brought this matter before
Judge Shure only four days
before it was scheduled on the
court calendar.
Let me state in closing that
the keystone of the American
system of government is the
separation of powers - execu.
tive, legislative and judicial.
No one is asking the Council
to "enter into matters which
are before the courts" But
the Council does little credit
to the intelligence and under
standing of the residents of
Montgomery County if it at
tempts to sidestep answering
questions relating to this mat
ter on the grounds that it is
before the courts.
Respectfully yours

Freedom Abused

In Gettysburg the other day Ike was asked what
he thought about the Birch Society. He flushed but
refused to give his opinion
For the Members of Congress and newspaper
men who attended the luncheon conference there
no doubt what Ike thought of that group And for
the rest suppose Ike right in not lending any
dignity whatsoever to such an irresponsible bunch
The mere presence of Rep. John Rouselot of Cali
fonia, member of the Birch Society, enough to
give anyone indigestion. And why he had the nerve
to spend whole day in the company of great Amer
lean whose great character had been questioned by
Rouseots organization is something difficult to
derstand.
We agree with one of our more important CORE
spondents Mr.. Lester Kimble when he called to say
that he believes is time for of responsibility
and leadership to lash out at such irresponsible
ganization the Birch Society. In a way, we are
sorry Ike didn't lash out but he has been in the public
eye long enough to know that such procedures rare
y help the situation Freedom is precious though
some individuals and organizations abuse it.

An Economy Stroke

Several weeks ago the County Council voted to
drop road-widening project in Bethesda when it be-
came known that changes in conditions had made

This is what we would call an excellent stroke
of economy. Most governmental bodies would have
gone right ahead with the project especially since
the appropriation of funds had been made.
The Council and officials responsible for this
move are to be congratulated albeit little late.

On Mony Subjects

VI oOlilC blliIC tioNC eli
joyed reading your newspaper
and its careful coverage of is
sues affecting Montgomery
County residents. In addition,
I find myself many times
agreeing with your editorial
comments and it's nice to find
that others share at least
some Of my opinions!
In particular, 1 have found
your reports of the findings
of the special study group on
our schools in complete agree
ment with my feelings. II
only they would act quickly
to institute some of these
changes before my elementary
school child loses the oppor-
tunity to benefit by them!
Another area you have COW
cred is the Lincoln Park Hous-
ing proposal. h 1t win be ter
rible If they put up another
125 units of public housing in
that area. / do hope Mayor
Greene sticks to his guns as
to the sites he has proposed
and holds the line at no more
than As. Even this is too
much-about 20 would suf-
flee. My housekeeper lives in
Lincoln Park and I must say
l agree with her that this
area should not be used for
public housing. The demand
for housing is an excuse to
move Negroes from other
areas to Montgomery County
and would radically increase
a vast change in the character
of our present Negro neigh
borhoods. We have been so
fortunate in the Negro citizens
we have and they do not want
these others foisted upon
them. Let them build in Ken
sington or the rural areas
where their out-of-date lists
indicate there is some need for
housing!
I particularly agreed with
David Sculls articles on the
"neutrals." am a Democrat
but in the area of looking
after our security, I'm some
what of a Goldwater Republi-
can. On this line, do you have
a book review coverage that
might cover "America-Too
Young to Die" by DeSever-
sky This is a field (unifica-
ton of the services and DOM
nance of air power) that 1
must agree with.
Now for two suggestions:
Could you have someone re-
port on whether or not the
new Educational Channel, 26,
UHFIVHF can be received by
Rockville residents and what
is required to convert to re-
ceive it? l didn't have an op-
portunity to get to the Com
merce Department. And will
you please reprint where the
Special Committees report on
education is available.
One more thing-on politics,
I very much favor Blair Lee,
but was it not possible for
him to keep free of his ties
with Mahoney? Could you re-
view at some time in the flu.
ture, Mahoney's votes in the
State when he ran previously
within the counties-where
he was weak and where he
was strong? l have an UNI
easy feeling that Blair Lee
might have done better with
out him, but I'm not suffi-
GENTLY informed as to Mahon-
ey's previous efforts. And I
would like for Mr.. Lee to win.
1 hope you will use your
editorials to suggest persons
for the School Board who will
promptly move to make the
Improvements set forth in the
Special Committees findings.
