Careers In Journalism Open Now To More Quebec Women election, for example, we wait The .women .of .French Canada are making inroads into professions that once were the almost exclusive preserves of men. A Ca- nadian Press reporter dis- cusses the new era with the only woman editorial writer on a French-language daily. By LINDA CRAWFORD MONTREAL (CP) -- Only seven years ago, Renaude La- pointe became the first woman reporter in the gen- eral newsroom of Canada's largest French - language daily. Today, as one of the four editorial writers at La Presse, she is the only woman edito- rial writer on a French-lan- guage daily and one of a handful of women editorial writers on Canadian metro- Politan dailies. And the La Presse news- room now boasts a large number of womes seporters. These rapid Gevelopments are an example of the profes- sional headway made by Quebee women in the last few years. "It was considered taboo for a married woman to work before, but this too is -disap- pearing quickly,"-said Miss Lapointe, speaking in English. "We have two newlyweds on the women's pages, for exam- ple." But her personal formula for success in journalism is to "'stay single." And a look at her average day as an editorial writer on the big paper perhaps ex- plains her philosophy. "We come to work at 8 a.m. every morning because we have to check the final gal- leys. Then we split up the reading among us, covering the Montreal papers and all important Canadian papers. I specialize in the French pa- pers. "At 10 a.m. we have a meet- ing and pick the subjects we like best of those that must be dealt with that day. "We each write one edi- torial a day. I prefer politics, both provincial and federal." STARTED IN QUEBEC Besides writing . editorials, the four must share the "kitchen business," which in- cludes selection, editing and layout of foreign press com- ment, cartoonsrand other edi- torial page copy. But the day doesn't end when the editorial pages are completed. "We have to read a lot of reviews and magazines and watch a lot of television. "Often a development. oc- curs at night in a story we wrote about that afternoon and we have to come back and change it. During a strike or EAST SINGS OUT MONTREAL (CP)--The Mar- itimes are the richest mine of Canadian folk music, say col- lectors Brian and Fern Sutton, who held the city's first folk workshop at the YMCA this fall. "The first settlers brought with them from Scotland, Eng- land and Ireland a heritage deeply rooted in folk music." HOUSEHOLD HINT Lightly grease the inside top of the pan you make candy in and it won't boil over. for developments until 2 a.m." . Miss Lapointe, from Dis- raeli in Quebec's Eastern Townships, worked in a law- yer's office in Quebec City before joining Le Soleil there. "IT had a journalist friend Wid eicuuraged me io appiy for a job as a reporter and f finally did." While at Le Soleil she gained experience as a gen- eral reporter, woman's page writer, music critic and even lovelorn columnist. For 12 years she wrote a teen-age column under a man's name, During part of her time in Quebec City Miss Lapointe was correspondent for Time and Life magazines. Later she started script writing for the CBC French network. "T still do script writing and I frequently participate in programs." COMMENT FAVORABLE Miss Lapointe was asked to join the editorial writing staff during a seven-month strike at La Presse in 1964. "At. first I didn't think I would like staying in an edi- torial office after being on general reporting and going out somewhere different each day, And I didn't think I could do it. "But we received favorable comment from the public when I started, especially from women. They were de- lighted and wrote to me very enthusiastically, 'T_even.found that judges and other important people read my editorials. And it's surprising how many people do read the editorial pages to- day. Many women have told me they started reading the editorial pages because there was a woman writing for them and that they now read them regularly." Although journalism now is open to French - Canadian women, French-language jour- nalism is limited in Canada, Miss Lapointe says. There are only 13 French . language dailies. "In a way, we are little prisoners of Quebec. We never learn English well enough to write for English publications. If you do write in English, it must be edited and rewritten, as my copy was for Time and Life." SUITS, FORMERLY syn- onymous with spring and the Easter Parade, are coming. on strong for fall. By MARGARET NESS NEW YORK (CP)--Suits for fall are a fairly recent idea. It used to be that the suit was synonymous with spring and the Easter Parade. Then in the autumn of 1961 the real suit, which had been overshadowed by the dress - with-jacket ensemble, returned and has continued popular. A year ago, fashion expert Eleanor Lambert noted that "the suit with the lush dressy dress and jacket. costume." This fall, the dressy blouse has disappeared in favor of a tailored shirt or overblouse with a turtleneck look. There is also a division in the ranks of the top designers over! the idea of suits for fall, | Some, such as Gaston Ber- thelot, designer for Christian Dior-New York, and Bill Blass of Maurice Rentner are firmly committed to the fall suit. Others, including Pauline Tri-| gere, have ousted the suit for | autumn 1966. } "The suit look is. still very | important for fall 1966," says Berthelot. "It is either the neat, trim look of a short jacket with an A-line or slim skirt or the longer jacket in a walking suit. | And to complete the suit look | there are many sleeveless over- | blouses of contrasting colors | and the new bow - tied Dior) shirt." | ALMOST A COAT The walking suit can almost become a coat ensemble.

Top Paris Designer Criticizes British Camoby Street Fashions By LINDA CRAWFORD MONTREAL (CP) -- Lon- don's bid for recognition as the |world's fashion capital rests mainly on the impact of the city's mod Carnaby Street, but Carnaby Street styles have nothing to do with fashion, jedan "A mashss Wate said Tuesday. "The Carnaby Street contribu- tion is on the gaiety side rather than on the aesthetic side," said Mr: Balmain, one of France's most admired couturiers. "Resurrecting dresses from the 20s and buying clothes at the flea market--this has noth- ing to do with fashion," said Mr. Balmain, whose designs are generally labelled elegant. by Larry Aldrich, is worn with a brown jersey turtle- neck sweater. : (CP Photo) Also new is the return of the weskit. Donald Brooks makes it part of his four - piece suit, quilting the weskit for added interest. Weskits are popular with the new hacking suit in its riding style with back vents, And they even get into the late-day suit as in Pattullo - Jo Copeland's brocade with its cowl-neckline pink satin blouse. The military look that is im- portant in coats is, to a lesser degree, also found in suits. There are soft British officer jackets worn with short swing- ing skirts. Others resemble bat- tle jackets and~ some sport epaulettes, REGIMENTAL STRIPES Frechtel provides his own military look with regimentally- striped blouses to go with his lengthened jackets. Lady Hathaway Sportswear also fa- vors regimental stripes, as in a black wool challis suit with diagonal stripes of red and gold in the cardigan. A single row of brass buttons runs down the jacket front and there is a but- ton on each shoulder, Suit fabrics for fall are in- teresting. There is considerable demand for gabardine. Hannah Troy has several styles, includ- ing a honey color with yoke detail and a robin's egg blue with brown mink collar. Branell's gabardine suits sport their own jailbird striped blouses. He also teams a char- coal gabardine suit with a white wool jersey top. Plaids and tweeds are popu- lar. Jean Louis combines a red- brown plaid longer jacket with matching shutter - pleated skirt and red overblouse. In tweeds, Davidow features plum and shocking pink as well as blue and bronze. It is Dav- idow especially who likes the look of a suit and its companion coat. Bill Blass likes his tweed suits in patterned effects, often combined with jersey blouses. _ Interesting and new are the pseudo suits featured: by Geof- frey Beene, a repeat winner this year of a Coty Fashion Award. These look like suits but are actually dresses, Mr. Balmain, speaking at a press conference held to an- nounce details of a competition for young Canadian designers, said fashion must be something everyone can wear. "Tf there are age, social or other barriers, such as there are with the mini-skirt, then clothes are confined to certain and are not really fash- mn, "These clothes are. inexpeti- sive, funny and to be worn once) or twice and then discarded. The true mission of fashion is to design for a select group and --_ adapt for mass produc- ion," ANATOMY A CRITERIA The Paris designer, who will preside over the Judging of en- tries in the competition, said one of his criteria will be whether or not the contestant shows he understands anatomy. "The trouble today is that too many designers design in. the abstract, without a knowledge of the human body. I would like designers to always believe and prove that there is a woman inside the dress." The competition Mr. Balmain will be judging, along with sey- eral Canadians and perhaps an American, is open to all final- year students at accredited fashion design schools in Can- ada. It is sponsored by Du Pont of Canada Ltd. The winner, who will be an- nounced April 19, 1967, will be awarded a $2,000 scholarship to cover a three- to four-month study period at the Mr. Bal- main's Paris couture house.

(CP) -- Mrs. Olivier Landry, who gave up dancing at 98, sat up in her rocking chair, a cigarette dan- gling from her lips. "If you are well," she re flected, "you want to live.
