She Girl Must Make Many Adjustments in Big City, Says Social Worker By ELIZABETH TOOMEY United Press Staff NEW YORK- Parents should give a daughter a "graceful way out" when she leaves home to go job hunting in a big city, a social worker and psychoanalyst advises. "Give her a way she can come home and not feel a failure," Emily Anne Black said. "If coming to New York City, for instance, is viewed by the family as an experience for a girl and not as a beginning of something big, it helps tremendously.

Then if a girl is unhappy here, it can be put on a basis of her making a decision CLASSIC By CONNIE McCOWN All the world's his stage and he's never out of costume. How appropriate for one whose chosen profession is the theater. Actor Peter Walker, currently playing in the Avondale Playhouse production of "Glass Menagerie," makes it a point to buy his offstage "costumes" from fashion centers throughout the world. He gets a chance to wear them onstage, also. Last week the actor wore a double-breasted suit tailored in Paris for his role of Dr.

Armstrong In "Ten Little Indians." This week he forgets his intern at ional wardrobe to play the part of the narrator, a Bainter's Miss McCown son, the Tennessee Williams hit. He dons a pea jacket and navy turtle neck sweater for the role. In his wardrobe Walker has seven suits tailored for him in London, Paris and Rome. He has spent the last six years in Europe acting in English and films and on the stage. Frenchis last film another actor.

noted for being one of the "best dressed," joined him in discussing a favorite topic. men's clothing. The actor IS Adolphe Menjou and their forthcoming film. "The Ambassador's Daughter." And Walker has definite ideas about clothing. "It 1S SO easy to have good taste today," says he.

"if you go to the right tailor." Walker prefers French and Italian tailors. His own suits run between $100 and $150. Though his shoes and ties are Italian in origin, the tall. tanned actor definitely prefers American-made shirts. And he buys his at Brooks Brothers.

He likes button-down collared Oxford cloth ones. And always white. He never goes in for the pinks heliotropes, or mint greens.

SECRETS OF CHARM Overcome Shyness by Forgetting Yourself If you are shy, you have plenty of company. Yes, and company of your own age, even if you've stopped counting your birthdays.

Almost as many mature women as young girls confess shyness. Shyness is nothing to be embarrassed about--a trace of it In your manner can be charming. Just learn to overcome the degree of shyness that makes you suffer when you should be enjoying yourself, or lose out when you should be making a pleasant impression. This isn't too difficult, and you can start right now by thinking the whole thing through. First of all.

remember that vou're not alone--there's shyness in the innermost nature of everyone. The person you hesitate to talk to may need your encouragement more than you need his. Then take stock of all good things you've learned from living things like sincerity, tolerance. and kindness that young people haven't had time to learn so well. You may not be brilliant; but, with qualities like these, you have something very worthwhile to contribute to ac- quaintance, friendship, and even to chance conversation.

Value these qualities in yourself as others will value them in you. Try to see beyond attitudes of overconfidence in others-they may be no more than whistling in the dark. Some people develop bold manners to cover up lack of confidence. The perceptive aren't fooled. and they have more respect for quieter confidence of the kind that can be natural to you.

Realize that when you're feeling painfully shy, you're thinking too much about yourself When you switch your attention 10 someone else you forget yourself and shyness disappears.

Miss Black has talked to hundreds of girls who are struggling to earn their own living in this city.

She is a case consultant to the Girls Service League and formerly worked with the Youth Consultation Service. She sees girls who are homesick and discouraged and broke -and afraid to go home. These same girls write glowing letters home, glossing over the facts and pretending they have better jobs, more friends and more fun than they actually have. "Heaven forbid anyone should come visit them from home," said the sympathetic psychoanalyst, who is entitled to use that title although her degrees are in social work and not medicine. Their first.

visit back home usually is at Christmas. They buy presents they can't afford to take the family--and get in debt. The endings can be happy, even to these stories with dreary beginnings. Marriage, better jobs or perhaps just an honest adjustment to the problems of big city living rescue most girls. But an unhappy few suffer permanent scars.

"Age has nothing special to do with the adjustment a girl makes when she leaves home for the first time." Miss Black said. "Sometimes the high school graduates who come here get along better than the college graduates. "It depends on how much responsibility they have taken at home. for one thing. Girls who have been brought up handling money, who have had summer jobs, are going to be wiser about living on their salaries.

"High school graduates often get jobs easier than college graduates, because they are willing LO take jobs as file clerks or on switchboards or even in factories. "The college graduate with a major in English or psychology has no special skill, yet feels she should get a job with more prestige. She often can't even type. So she has trouble getting work." Social contacts are the second major problem. Girls who have always dated boys known to them and their families suddenly realize they have no way of knowing anything about the boys they meet.

Miss Black. the daughter of a Dallas (Tex.) physician and a pretty, blue-eyed woman with a deceptively youthful appearance, thinks girls' residences are the salvation for many of the big city problems.
