He was, rather, referring to workers and the task of enlisting enough Freeporlers who liavc the civic pride which leads them to participate in the campaign. Mr. Gockley pointed out that the ten health and service agencies winch make up the United Fund fulfill an urgent need and benefit, directly or indirectly, every resident of the vii*- village. “I am thinking particularly of the children who need help,” he said. “The palsied children wiio deserve a our jielp, lie cliance at a ha] appy and productive life; the boys and girls haracterharacter buildiiuilding who need the c b programs of the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts; the mentally retarded and the emotionally disturbed—all of the children whose future is determined by the measure of success we achieve in the United Fund each year.” Mr. Gockley stated that the “United” way could be suc cessfully continued only if there are enough volunteers to make the calls. “This was well demonstrated in last year’s campaign,” M...— 1 — i „ ------ 1 ----------- *„ because he pointed out, “when we failed to meet our quota beca we simply did not get complete coverage of the village. “A^ United Fund volunteer is anyone who has enough community spirit to ring ten door bells and simply says: ’I am calling upon you Jor the United Fund.* “'I'here is no salesmanship involved, or special talent, or great expenditure of lime—only tlie willingness fo help build a happier and healthier' . .............. -------------------- ' ------- community, bring new hop( to sluittered lives, develop the physical and moral strength of our youth.” Mr. Gocklcy announced the appointment of Edward M.

MABIO of I I^EPOBT Be Fair When Bare If you shave with a safety razor: always defuzz before a bath or shower. Use a made-for-girls shav ing loUon on legs and underarms to help whisk away every hair, then puU razor against hair growth. Use firm sweeping strokes—and a new blade each time you rttave. H you own a n electric raaor, use firm back- and-forth strokes; press slightly on razor when shaving legs. A pre- dusUng with talcum helps dry hair. Depilatories, which contain chem icals that soften or dissolve hair at the skin line, last about as long as a shave but re growth is soft», less stubbly. Some are mild enough to be used on facial hairs, but chenUcal strength varies. Be sure label states '*facial quaUty” before using it on your upper lip; take a patch test If suggested. Depilatories are fine for legs but are not rec ommended for Use under arms, where skin Is sensitive. Was for legs, forearms or upper lip gives long-lasting results and. with cemstant use, discourages grenrth to a certain extent. You eaa buy cosmetic wax for use a t home or have a professional waxing a t a beauty salon. The wax is melted, applied warm to the skin. When it hardens, it is zipped off. removing hairs with it. Best results occur on longer hair that's unusually thick. Abrartves, like sandpaper* mitts, are among the most ancient meth ods still u s ^ . If fuzz on forarms Is d ark you might try this method. It leaves skin satin smooth. Never sandpaper your upper lip. bleach may be all you need for your unier lip. Stoke a paste of soap flakes, a teaspoon of ammonia and three teaspoons of hydrogen peroxide. Apply with cotton, leave a few minutes, then wash off. If necessary, repeat the next day. j POST-TIME By IBVING BERNSTEIN AUtaUa, Italian airline, been named the offirtal airline for Roose velt Raceway, i t was announced by Alvin L.
