THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE SEVEN ' THURSDAY, JULY 10, 1947 , Newspaper Woman Declares News Not Male Game Only Ottawa, July--(CP)--A Canadian woman, who in her 40- looking forward to a holiday "with- out a deadline for coming home." The military "beat" on the old London (Ont.) Advertiser during the First World War, and "cover- ing" the development of the Prairie Women's Institutes for the Regina : Leader-Post--just some of Isabel STERNER OR "for a busier Armstrong's work during those days of 30 years ago when women were beginning to coak their way into newspaper work, Born in Wilton Grove, Ont., Miss Armstrong did a stint on the Lon- don Echo, also on the London Press, and the Toronto Daily Star, before accepting a job for six weeks on the Ottawa Citizen. She ended up by remaining 20 years as the Citizen's music and drama editor, and it's that jo she has just left ife than ever as a "Reporter in Retirement." "Maybe I'll work in a little golf- "ing, and perhaps return to practis- ing that piano I, gave up for jour- " nalism," laughed Miss Armstrong "--I may even try out some of those recipes I've been putting in news- paper cook-books all these tyears-- " and who knows perhaps Ill write ! interview -- an that 'now-it-can-be told' book-- they say retired journalists always do that." Humorously she recalled that fateful day 40 years. ago when as Just a 'teen-ager she had her first unsuccessful one -- with a hard-boiled city editor. "He paralyzed me so that I went 5 home and wrote an article about a would-be reporter and an editor," she recollected. And that same story pleased an- ~ other city editor so much that he gave the young girl her first job-- with the staff of the London Echo. But there bas been more, than Just "reporting" in Miss Arm- Strong's career. From 1935 until 1938 she was national president of the Canadian Women's Press Club, and was on the C.W.P.C. executive TRY EXCITING NEW RADIANT-CREME SHAMPOO Made by Procter & Gamble For all' the Family! 27c-63c-89¢ TAMBLYN'S ¢ King E.

She was defeated, but that didn't dampen the young reporter's politi- cal inclinations, and for a couple of years ghe continued working for the party in Ottawa, before finally tak- ing the job with the Citizen. She may be retiring, but Miss Armstrong has lost none of her enthusiasm for newspaper work. "No. field offers women a greater opportunity for service," she said, debunking that man-made theory that there are assignments women aren't capable of covering. "A woman can be equal to the emergency when it arises and she can do it without sacrifice of her womanhood." Is Women's Talk © All Just Gossip? Are they just a lot of back fence gassipers? Or, are women really serious about their responsibilities at home and in the community, the nation and the world? "We are living in times when women's influence © in the home community hag gone out into the community of the world," according to Kate Aitken, in charge of wo- men's affairs at the Canadian Na- tional Exhibition, Aug. 22 to Sept. 6, 1947. "That i8 why the CNE will pre- sent a two-day Women's Forum to thresh out the pros and cons of wo- men's place in an intelligent Cana- da," Miss Aitken states. Four sessions of this Women's Forum will take place on Saturday, Aug. 30 and Labor Day, Sept. 1, in Annex. Misg Mabel Stoakley, a lead- ing Toronto business and profess- 'ional woman, has been named chairman. Queen Impresses Vancouver Nurse London, July 10--(CP)--Miss M. Doris Anderson, Vancouver, was among a group of Empire nurses presented to the Queen when Her Majesty attended a garden party at St. James Palace in connection with the British Empire Nurses War Memorial Fund. "I think she (the Queen) is very sweet," Miss Anderson said, "She immediately makes you feel com- fortable and at home." Miss Anderson, who left Vancou- ver in 1938 and saw service in In- dia and Burma, now is Matron of Violet Metchett Nursery Training College in London. She plans to return to Canada next year.

Cute Tricks for "Slick Chicks" Teentimers represent the one age of womanhood when anything "cute" in dress goes from derby hat to a skirt 'full of ruffles, If you're a teen-ager, make the most of your "cuteness," and save sophis- tication for the long years ahead. As grown-up as this advice sounds it comes from a 16-year-old who is a high school junior and a prize-winning dress designer. Her ideas in dress ez » 50 Signing to udges--prize-winning design was a Suge capelet dress laced-to at neck- line and belt with golden chate- laines--that she copped first place in this year's national teentimers' contest. Other dress ideas which she goes for are derby hats--saucy but sim- ple toppers that team with school- girl Chesterfields and reefers--and eye-catching cotton blouses. No matter how ruffled, cotton blouses which typify youth and freshness can be self-laundered by the girl who wears them and can be used to stretch a wardrobe. : There are limitless effects that can be achieved by means of eye- flagging scarves to give a teen-ager wardrobe variety. Besides wearing one on your head, try twisting it around your tiny waist or draping it over one shoulder and belting it down. What scarves need besides inven- tive tricks of wearing them is fre- quent laundering or pressing. The sauciest effect is not worth the trou- ble, according to our young designer, if a scarf is soiled or wrinkled. NEED VOCATIONAL HELP The result of a survey by the British Columbia department of education has convinced officials that greater emphasis on vocation- al guidance is needed in schools. Only 668 of 1,209 boys questioned had any idea of what they wanted to do for a living when they "left school. Of 1,584 girls leaving school 852 were doubtful about immediate plans. The remainder gave clerical and office work as their first choice. Most popular choice for boys was manufacturing, followed by building construction clerical and office work, agriculture and logging.

Books in the Public Library : Assist Golf Enthusiasts By PHYLLIS A. BROWN "GOLF SIMPLIFIED" By Edward C. Acree To those who are persevering in their attempts to bring their golf score down from those for- midable 70's and 80's, encourag- ing and sound advice hag been offered by Edward C. Acree in his book "Golf Simplified." The author is a business who started out in the game as a beginner and who improyed rap- idly by means of a scientific ap- proach to the game. The tech- nical information about golf has been supplied by Jock Hutchison, former British Open Champion, and by Bill Hutchison, who has been an outstanding professional instructor for many years. Both brothers are associated with the Glenview Club, Golf, Illinois, a suburb of Chicago. The subject material has been reviewed by "Chick" Evans, several times winner of the National Amateur Championship of the U.S.A, and his lucid comments have been added throughout the book, Thus it represents combined expert pinion. Its objective, which has been fulfilled admirably, is to pre- sent the essentials of the funda- mentals of golf in clear and un- derstandable form, Mr, Acree believes that the first requisite to better golf is a scientific approach. "Proper men- tal attitude is a prerequisite to the development of physical abil ity." Next, he outlines in con- cise fashion the contributing fac- torf in degree of importance, which may enable the reader to improve his golf form. Mechanical Factors:-a.

Master the mechanics of a correct swing to the point where it is reproduced habitually. 4. Exercise good judg- ment in selecting the type of shot to execute under existing condi- tions, 5. Refrain from worry and other things which prevent con- centration and relaxation, The author gives detailed in- structions of grip, stance, ad- dress, backswing, downswing, im- pact, follow through and finish. The supplementals involved in the execution of a golf swing are the proper functions of hamfid, wrist, shoulder, foot, knee, body turn, straight left arm, judgment, cen- fidence, concentration, relaxation and self-control and Mr, Acree tells how tp perfect these move. ments. . He also describes in detail how to execute the following: putts, chip, pitch, medium iron, long iron and wood shots. "Selection must be made of a club which will provide the proper distance, loft and roll under the conditions | which exist." Full notes are given, illustrated by diagrams, on the execution of shots involving additional factors and abnormal conditions as when the ball lies in the rough or in a trap, when the wind is strong or the course | is wet or when the ball rests on the side of a hill. Mr, Acree emphasizes this point In connection with over- coming these difficulties: '"The average player becomes tense when faced with the necessity of negotiating a hazard. player will retain a mormal men- If the | tal attitude and direct all of his attention to the planning and the execution of the shot, he will ne- gotiate a majority of the hazards successfully." The author then gives detailed rules for performing shots in the rough, trap shots, shots in the woods or among trees, for play- Before You Go! Have That...

Milliner's Preview New York,--Hats for every type and every occasion took bow after bow before a large audience of press people this morning when - Walter Florell of East tird St. presented his fall revue of millinery. The revue was presented in nine character scenes, the first featuring "Nimbus" hats--a skillful arrange- ment of gossamer effects, each sil- houette accentuated through coils of veiling mounted on wires, with voluminous drapings in Russian ef- fect. "Roosters on the Rampage" featured forward-posed, swagger brim hats with high crowns and feathers fanning in every direction across. the front, dripping over brims, shooting skyward. "Protocols"--a word that has fig- ured largely in international news and calls up visions of officials, red tape and ever-present authority-- inspired a group of hats with over- blown crowns and big-visoréd brims. They were mostly stark black or touched lightly with black and white ribbons. " The Milky Way" hats ranged from cute little theatre bonnets to large-brimmed hats cov- ered or trimmed with fine imported net studded with a mist of gold-- the perfect finish for the all-black costume for after-five dates. "Turbans Under Glass" were a new version of an old favorite, wid- er, fuller, draped in velvet and trimmed with velvet roses and sweeping coague feathers. "Bedtime Story" were large soft flattering berets, accompanied by matching muffs, Th were in dyed maribou in sh of prec ious furs, such as sable brown, stone martin beige and black fox. "Naughty Elevens, Naughty Twelves"--borrowed from the 1911 12 period in fashion history--show- ing well-proportioned brims and crowns supplemented by smashing bows of gay ribbons, lush flowers, touches of veiling and bloused crowns encircled with beautiful painted ostrich plumes or tinfed velvet roses. "Twinkles and Blinders," the fin- ale of the fall with wide bands of confetti spangles and little after-dark hats, strictly theatre and glamor, entirely em- broidered with black or multi-col« ored sequins accompanied by a tiny barrel muff that almost out-shone and out-glittered the hats.
