THE TERRE HAUTE STAR, THURSDAY, AUGUST 24, 1961. 11 A WOMAN'S WAY Becoming increasingly popular with editors of the "slick" magazines are fiction stories by Eileen Jensen Mrs. Wayne Jensen of 10 Thirty-first Street Court. In the September issue of Red- book is a new story of hers with the title of "The Girl With the Long Blue About a G. I.

working his-way through teacher's college, it features the gay kind of dialogue which is outstanding in Mrs. Jensen's stories. Two Canadian magazines also recently published stories by the local writer. "Keep It Light," a hospital-background romance, appeared in the Aug. 12 issue of the Toronto Star Weekly, a Sunday magazine supplement, and "Who's Afraid of Love?" was used in Chatelaine, the Canadian Home Journal, in May.

Eileen has really made a name for herself as a fiction writer and she seems to be holding her fact, getting even more a tough market. New-car buyers, who this Sum- By Frances Hughes mer prefer light-colored autos, according to a survey by a color and chemical company, probably will switch their preference to the darker hues as the weather gets colder, the company predicts. The survey indicates that white, tan, beige, light brown and gray top the list of favorite shades. Only exception among the light- toned leaders is black, a constant favorite. Darker blues, greens, and reds, colors which appeared farther down the preference list, are expected to become more popular as Winter sets in.

Factors affecting color choices usually include weather conditions, time of year, and geographical location as well as natural preference, according to a producer of pigments for the paint and printing ink industries. Some makers indicated in the survey that bright, light colors seem to be more in demand in the sunny states, while darker colors are more popular in the cooler climes. One always thinks of the man of the house as the one who makes most of the decisions about the new car. Perhaps he is as color-conscious as we women. While on the subject of autos, word comes now that there is a self-powered electronics alarm that "beeps" to warn the motorist of radar speed traps ahead.

The instrument detects radar beams as far away as half a mile from the source, then sounds off with a beeping signal. According to the manufacturer, the half-mile range is twice the warning distance necessary to allow the motorist to safely reduce his speed before entering the radar-patrolled zone. "This is more than just a device to help the motorist avoid a speeding ticket." according to a company spokesman. "It can also help reduce accidents by making the driver more conscious of the speed limit." The detection instrument uses printed circuits and eight transistors. It operates on two 1000- hour penlight batteries, good for approximately 35,000 miles of MONTGOMERY WARD C-0281 601 WABASH AVE.
