BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. - (NEA) - When a big compa ny introduces a new product, it’s handy to have a couple of Vanderbilt girls around to help with the launch. Allied Chemical Corpora tion’s textile division has a new fabric called “ Touch.” Rather than just give their salesmen a few swatches and a pep talk, they have set out on a year-long program to give Touch a proper push. Among other things, they 've hired Wendy and Heidi Vanderbilt, the daughters of Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt Wendy (241 and Heidi (201 dropped into Beverly Hills when Allied got together with a society group called The Colleagues and held a fash ion show. A pride of design ers had whipped up a collec tion - all using Touch, natur ally - and the members of The Colleagues modeled the clothes at a posh cocktail re ception and fashion show. Mrs. Clyde Newhouse-telev- ision fans will remember her as Maggi McNellis, of the old Leave It to the G irls show - was the commentat- tor. And she aiso had a tele vision show based on the pro gram, for later viewing here and elsewhere. For Wendy and Heidi, this was the second stop in a deal that calls for them to show up at 10 cities, for a th r e e day stand in each, to give the Touch debut a touch of society. Their first was Ak ron - Allied has a tire com pany, too, and they thought it would be politic to kick it off there - and later they will call on Chicago and other ci ties. “We may do Southamp ton,” Wendy said, “in the season.” Wendy is working at art these days. In New York, she has an apartm ent - studio a- top a brownstone, which she shares with two cats and a dog. She specializes in abs tract paintings, she says. Heidi used to act, but she has switched her interest now to other things. She is study ing anthropology and etholo gy - the science of animal behavior - a t Columbia. Her future plans are vague, but there is one dream. “I’d like,” she says, “some day to have m y own zoo.” They all went out to dinner at one of Beverly Hills’ best restaurants, and the conver sation was a melange of to pics. They talked about travel - London is their favorite city. They talked ibout clothes - naturally, they ike every thing made with Touch these days. They talked about movies and animals and even cucum bers and one of the guests took a leftover lamb chop home in a doggy bag. And she didn’t even have a dog, proving something about so ciety folk. Mostly, though, they earn ed their keep as ambassadre sses for Touch. They were en thusiastic 'a&out the fabric, repeating details about its feel (in light weights, it feels like silk, in heavier weights, it feels like suede) and its ability to take colors, the ease with which it can be worked and the fact that it is 100 per cent synthetic.

A Winning P air i < Everyone Needs A Home ....And Love By LEA FLANDERS Longmont, Colo. Dailv Times-Call W riter LONGMONT, Colo. (AP) - \W hat I really want the most is to become acquainted in ihe community and to get to know some people. I would like to do something to help people, and to have friends h e r e .” With, these word- and a sparkle in her eyes. Janet .Jennings, 36, who has lived 16 of those years at the Rid ge Home for mentally retard ed persons, expressed her hopes for a new adventure in life. Sekich Farm Thirty-five miles north of Denver, the \Sekich Farm ,” is not only a dream come true for Janet Jennings and 15 o- ther girls like her, but also for Mr. and Mrs. Nick Se kich. In their 30s, the Sekiches Dear Abby Law Zodiac Don't Mix By Abigail Van Buren DEAR ABBY: I am a Tau r u s i born April 24) and I am very much in love with a Scorpio i b orn Oct. 26 1 . First, let me explain that b e tore I knew anything about the zodiac, I foolishly mar- r.ed a Sagittarius, so our marriage w a ; doomed from th e start. My Scorpio married an A- rie s ian impossible union). They would have made excel lent business partners, but their temperaments were all wrong for marriage. Anyway, m \ Scorpio has left his A ries,'but 1 can’t get rid of rny Sagittanous. I’d divorce him but I have no grounds, and he won't, divor c e me, altho he has all the grounds he needs. My horoscope say s I should make no important decisions r.f the heart until after the first of n e s t year but I just can't see spending another Christmas with this miserab le man. My lawyer says that HE (my husband) should be the one to move out, but my hus band says he is happy here and if I am unhappy I should do the moving. There is a lot a t stake (financially) and I don't want to spoil everything. Can you help me? TAURUS DEAR TAURUS: Being a “ Moon Child” myself (July 4) I hesitate to meddle in areas about which I know nothing. Namely, law and the zodiac. Take your cues from your lawyer, lady, and quit star gazing. DEAR ABBY I need an un biased opinion on something. I drove over to my hus band’s office one night He has a bedroom there for when he stays in town. Much to my surprise his ex-wife was there! They were in the bedroom with the lights off and the door locked. He claim s they were only ‘‘talking.” He said the lights were off because he hates her so much he couldn't stand to look at her face. There is a desk and two chairs for conversation so it wasn't necessary for them to be in the bedroom. First, would you believe they were only talking? Se cond, would there be a rea sonable doubt in vour mind? ROSITA DEAR ROSITA: First, no! Second, si! DEAR ABBY: I am about to lose mv mind. My father is 73 years old, retired, has no financial worries, and he lives along in a very nice, modern home. My problem is in getting someone to keep house for him. They quit him one alter an other.\ The last one 'a very unattractive, common wom an in her mdddle sixties i was an excellent housekeeper, and I paid her double what she could get anywhere else, and she quit after one week! When I asked her why, she said she'd rather not say, but she did agree to clean for him daily if I would come over and stay in the house with her, or if my father wou ld get OUT of the house, but she wouldn’t, stay alone in the house with him. Now. Abby, I cannot ima gine my father making im proper advances to her, or any of these other housekeep ers, but what else am I to think? What would you do if you were in my shoes? IRS DAUGHTER DEAR DAUGHTER: I wou ld get m y father to a doctor for an examination from the neck both ways and try to determine the condition of h is mind. And in the meantime, I would try to line up a male domestic.

But none of that for them. They have put their money to work to provide a home for young women whose dreams of friends and servi ce are just as great as any 30 - y ear - old. Those dreams, perhaps, are on a different level. They are concerned with learning how to bake a cake, how to write well, what the world is like by studying maps and collect ing stam ps, getting house work jobs in the community, learning how to make paper flowers, helping teach small handicapped children, learn ing new skills . . . and . . . making friends. Now, a t the newly construct ed Sekich Farm, the first such subordinate facility in the state of the Ridge Home- and the beginning of a whole new complex of them, offici als hope-the girls hope to get a chance to work out some of those dreams. Dream s and Dollars Many thousands of Sekich dollars have gone into the construction of a ten-bedroom completely modern brick farm house for the new facil- Poily's Pointers ity. Designed throughout by Mrs. Sekich, the handsome building has everything that any smart homemaker would want. There’s a beautifully e- quipped kitchen and laundry room, large living room with standing fireplace, game room, and large and cheerful bedrooms to house two girls each. Most important, the house is brightly and tastefully de corated. Colorful draperies in the well - equipped rooms, and many little thoughtful ac cessories, such as bulletin boards, m a k e it a happy and cheerful place. Why Did They Do It?... “Why did you do i t ? ” was the question posed to Mrs. Sekich. “It's a long story, but it boils down to the fact that unless I’m busy doing some thing that I think is worth while, I get sick,” said the modest attractive grandmoth er. “Luckily Nick grms along with my wild ideas.” For m a n y years the Se iches have cared for delin quent teenage boys under the state's foster family pro gram. At Christmas time, 1968, all the boys went home for a few days. Then, Mrs, Sekich said to Nick. “We just cannot spend Christmas alone; lei’s do something for somebody.” For a long time interested in the work at Ridge Home in Wheat Ridge, the Sekiches went down and brought four young women back with them to spend Christmas on the farm . A Christmas check from her husband went to buy gifts for the girls. Every body had a ball. “We all fell in love with each other,” she said. “ After they left I could not get them off my mind. At night I would lie awake won dering what we could do for them. Then I started plann ing the new home,” said “Mom” Sekich. The home is now finished and soon will be filled to ca pacity. In the meantime, back at the ranch, the Sekiches stfll have the boys, and care tor her mother who has recuper ated nicely from a stroke a few years ago; she too, will be a resident of the new farmhouse. “We’ll keep the boys until' each graduates and gets out on his own. We love then, loo,” said Mrs. Sekich. “W7e wish there were more people in this world like tne Sekiches,” said Dean Bulh- nells, social worker at Ricge, assigned to work with the Se kiches in their new prohet. “They have spent thou sands of dollars of their own money, and will continife to do so; the welfare mon ey they will receive if but a' drop in the bucket. More than the money, it's their heart that counts,” he said. Meat ’n Spuds Here's a hearty meil - in- one dish.

Can this piece be dyed, or what do the re ’ rs think I might do to brighten th’x? - LOUISA DEAR POLLY - My hus band is “edfast with a back ailment and his doctor pres cribed >t packs to help re lieve the pain.

Now I use my clothes dry er, set on HOT, to; such things. The towels can be partially dried if you want a wet pack. For dry ernes let them complexly dry and they will be very hot and retain the heat for some time. I place a large plastic bag in side a heavy paper bag, drop the hot towels into th e plastic bag, dose the top and quickly carry them to my patient. I spread the hot towels on his back, put a small rubber sheet over them to hold the heat in. This saves wringing out and burning m y hands. Pulling the covers up over his back also helps keep the heal .'1 longer.

BLACK LAKE - - Santy Santamoor, an ardent fisher m an, doesn't know it, but he is about to give you house wives ? lesson in the pre paration of “Old Whiskers” , or as landlubbers are prone to call it, the Channel Cat fish, for delirious eating. Now, be. ore you turn up your nose and say, “That trash ! ” listen to what be has to say in the Chamber of Commerce Vacationland ma gazine. Santy points out that out door sports magazines are printing many stories and ar ticles about the catfish each season, and he informs us that a sports writer for Out door Life has spent a day fishing here. The magazine will publish tlie article by Keith Schyler sometime next spring. Santy’s article conlerns the catching of this fish; as well as cooking so th a t ij will not taste too strong ami muddy. We will skip over ithe fish ing part - - althoigh there are probably many of you who would be intijrested in learning that art, aiso. HOW TO j Following is wlat Santy Santamoor says tonceming the cooking of cattish: “Here is what I have dis covered about this really ad mirable fish. Whet you clean or dress out yoit fish DO NOT >pen the stfmadi cav ity. Simply cut firough the skin from the Mad to the tail along the back. Then cut through the skin ground the head. Got it? T|en, with a good pair of plidrs and soft language, peel tip skin down on each side ppst the rib cage. Now with a sharp slen der knife cut the fillets from each side of the fish. You should have several pounds of steak without a bone in it, “This whole process will probably turn out to be a tir ing, messy deal, but after do ing it a few times it will be easy or at least EASIER... “Now that you have your steak and assuming that you enjoy eating fish, here are a couple o f . ways to cook it; “I. you like baked fish place one or two fillets on a rack with a pan underneath to catch the drippings, be cause these fillets are quite oily, bake slowly until flesh is real dry and flaky, season to suit taste with salt, pep per or garlic salt, while bak- ng. BEER BATTER. . ... “If you want deepfried tas-y ty fish, try this: Make a BEER batter using regular flour or still better get pan cake mix and use beer for the liquid. Cut the fillets into strips about four inches long and one inch wide, dry them as much as possible and dust them with flour, then dunk them in the beer batter, from there drop them into deep, hot cooking oil. When they are rich golden brown (about 15 minutes) you will have some eating fish that will make you wonder why you have overlooked these pow erful, hard fighting game fisn before.” OLD WHISKERS GE'J CAUGHT - Sant Santamoor holds up two Channel Catfish, weighing 16 and 14 pounds. Santy says this very challenging jam e fish is good to eat if cooked properly. Here’s a way to \awayness”—a home retreat at the top, in an attic. Designed for informal living, this room has many comforts and lots o f atmosphere. The young couple followed a seafaring motif, reflected in ship’s relics used as art objects and furnishings. As background for this retreat, they covered walls apd ceiling w ith a textured liardboard, Masonite Ruf-X- 90 Grooved Siding, painted in light tones that add to the room's feeling of spaciousness Rough beams, posts and brick chimney, along with the bright-colored red fireplace, the green-covered table and plaid rug are handsomely highlightedj against the textured siding to create a truly unusual, informal and comfortable \awayness” room for leisurely living.
