Ahs Join Oohs as Kitty Cuts Up in Preview Bishop Sewing Method Demonstrated PHOTOS BY HARALD DREIMANIS This is where the dart would go for Kitty teases the audience with her Jackie Gleason, says Kitty Rotruck, as she clowns around. 'going away" dress. By Susan Kreifel She's classy and a bit brassy. She's a showgirl all the way. That's Kitty Rotruck.

And when it comes to making sewing a glamorous skill, she's got it all sewed up. Kitty, known nationwide as the Mrs. Bishop of Today, cuts up and sews up from Canada to Texas, conducting the Bishop Method of Clothing Construction Clinics. She's also got the finished edge on expertise she worked with Edna Bryte Bishop, founder of the Bishop method, for 22 years until Mrs. Bishop's death in 1968.

The Thursday night freebe, a preview of what was hi store the following two sessions, drew oohs and ahs from the overflow crowd at the Education Bldg. of Warren United Methodist Church. Cool, Elegant Mrs. Rotruck, exhibiting the utmost in cool and elegance, dazzled the instructors, homemakers and the curious with her gowns, all designed from the same pattern but looking very different. Appearing first in a red print gown slit up the front, she noted that "I firmly believe everyone can look well in their clothes if they know what to look for." "I make it.

I finish it. I wear it," she said describing her own techniques. Noting that weight changes call for alterations, "Bone structure will not change but the sands of time do shift." She reiterated several times that "what looks well on you is always high fashion." Short Lapses Mrs. Rotruck has found her own high fashion. Between short lapses, she modeled her creations including a yellow Butte Knit sweater print, a shocking pink long-sleeved evening gown with a raglan-sleeved coat in upholstery fabric; a woman's caftan desiped from a man's pattern; a shimmery gold Butte Knit; a "naive chemise," so named for a bared spot strategically placed over her cleavage, and a glittering white knit with a dropped waist, pleated skirt and three diamond-shaped cutouts down the front.

Endowed with an enjoyable sense of humor, Mrs. Rotruck announced that she has completed her going away dress. Wearing a candlelight, buttoned-down-the-front sheer gown, explained that she meant a going away dress "to the great beyond, whether I'm meeting my maker or the devil. I don't want to be in a J.C. Penney ready-to-wear." Raw Edges The seamstress showed many outfits in knits, and turning back a cuff, stated that they have many raw edges.

"They don't fray and ravel, and I don't wear my clothes inside out. Knits are a difficult fabric to work with, she said, because the fabric is made on circular machines and thus may not be properly lined up on the grainline. She offered these tips: Always refold the fabric to get a straight grainline, and when matching plaids or prints, always cut pieces singly. Efficiency and simplicity are her middle names. Kitty never uses zippers in knits (they stretch for easy on and off), glues in hems and irons on interfacings.

'Ripping It Out' Obtaining a well-tailored outfit is all hi the fabric and the fit, according to her. "You must know your figure and your fabric and what it will do. "There isn't anything worse than sewing it up and trying it on and ripping it out and sewing it up and trying it on and ripping it out and sewing it up and The fashion look for fall: "Everyone says it's the '50s, but anyone near my age will say the '30s. It's the cloche hat. The tiny hat that particular look." So, she added, that old cliche 'if you hang onto clothes long enough they will come back into style' still holds." en Royalty Told Omaha Edward Owen and Deborah Jane Coe were crowned Friday night as the 81st king and queen of Ak-Sar-Ben.

Nuetzman. Dear Ann Landers: How could you, even in the name of humor, print the suggestion that a cook put a plastic bag over his head while peeling onions in order to avoid the fumes? Some un- thnking reader is sure to try this suggestion and suffocate! I urge you to warn your readers against the use of plastic bags in such a manner, and especially to keep those things out of the reach of children! Deeply Disappointed Dear Dis: I was dumbfounded at the number of letters (and phone calls) I received from readers who were upset by the suggestion that the onion peeler put a plastic bag over his head to avoid teary eyes and a running nose.

Ann Landers There is no way an adult can suffocate if he is in his right mind and sober. As for keeping plastic bags out of the reach of children now that makes some sense. Dear Ann Landers: What can be done to protect yourself against a vicious relative?

There were five boys and each of the wives has had to fight to save her marriage from this eldest brother's venomous attacks. He writes letters to his younger brothers at work and tells them what their wives have been doing that he thinks is wrong. He then suggests "proper punishment." It doesn't stop there. He writes lengthy reports on what he hears about their children and doesn't hesitate to outline what should be done about their "terrible behavior." In the meantime, his own kids have been in trouble with the police and his frightened mouse of a wife is a candidate for a mental hospital. Beat Down Dear B.D.: No man or beast could become that powerful unless someone gave him the authority.

The Gestapo routine should have been scotched the minute Big Brother began to stick his nose into your business.

Youngtown Charge BankAmericard Dial 464-6336 Master Charge Open Evenings and Sunday Afternoons I iftnrflln Jnunial IVING Saturday, October 18,1975 Review Feelings, Fears Tug Emotions By Holly Spence The University Theater presentation of Eugene O'Neill's "Long Day's Journey Into Night" is a long night's journey into frustration. Patterned around O'Neill's own besieged family life, the story revolves around a matinee idol from the turn of the century, a drug-addicted mother, an alcoholic brother and one dying from tuberculosis.

This William Morgan production is a startling one indeed and is recommended for the most serious of theater-goers and students of O'Neill. The feelings, guilts, fears and even loves of this family gnaw at the mind and tug endlessly at emotions. The pathetic realization is that there seems to be no recourse, solution or even temporary relief. This autobiographical piece is the essence of torment and torture and the'UNL production achieves many high points that convey these feelings. As blame for every problem past, present and future are mentioned, discussed, and cussed this blame is tossed from person to person.

Everyone wants it and yet no one really does. It is diabolically amusing when Mitch Tebo as the siclcly Edmund utters "we're all crazy, what do we need with sense," but there are still faint glimmers of hope that show through his and the others' dreams and realities. The trouble is that each cannot separate these dreams from the realities. Tebo has some fine and fiery moments with his father Tryone, played by Randall Parker. Parker, a new face on the Howell Theater stage, shows promise but periodically seemed ill at ease and stumbled on his dialogue.

Jerry Homan as the usually drunken Jamie handled his dramatic moments with ease and provided a few choice light moments in his loose-tongued description of Fat Violet at the local whore house to his brother. Jo Hill as the drugged mother handled the role with an almost ethereal, floating overtone. And she was especially Morgan-motivated in her involvement in interesting and intricate stage mannerisms. Andrea Visuthipal added a flighty bit of fancy as the Irish maid Cathleen. The three-hours are generally searing drama with the sparks coming from the personal conflicts and battling consciences not from any light-hearted theatrical wanderings.

"Long Day's Journey Into Night" continues at 8 p.m. Saturday and Monday through next Saturday in Howell Theater. ADVERTISEMENT "WHY DO THE HEATHEN RAGE?" 2nd Psalm and Acts It is said that Mr. Wesley once remarked to Mrs. Wesley: "I think you told that child the same thing twenty times'" "Maybe so, but he did not learn it on the 19th!" England and the world has been greatly blessed from whet John and Charles learned from their Mother.

The following is a reprint of an article hi this column in January 1970. If I owned the newspaper think I would run it more than twenty times, maybe every day for a year. You folks who approve of it and "Take Matters To The Lord in Prayer" ask His blessing to follow. The first recorded words of Christ after His baptism by John The Baptist were: "MAN SHALL NOT LIVE BY BREAD ALONE BUT BY EVERY WORD THAT PROCEEDETH OUT OF THE MOUTH OF GOD." Matt, and Luke 4:4. In the Gospel of John 10:35 He said: "THE SCRIPTURE CANNOT BE BROKEN!" And in another place, or two, He said "Heaven and Earth shall pass away, but My Words will not pass away." A number of times in The Old Testament God said of His People: "YE ARE MY WITNESSES!" one place is Isaiah 43:10.

A number of times Christ said to His Disciples- "YE ARE MY WITNESSES!" ONE PLACE IS Luke 24:48 just as He was about to ascend back to Heaven. In 2nd Chronicles 16:9 The Spirit of God says: "FOR THE EYES OF GOD RUN TO AND FRO THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE EARTH TO SHOW HIMSELF STRONG IN THE BEHALF OF THEM WHOSE HEART IS PERFECT TOWARDS HIM!" Desiring to be a faithful and true witness, bearing one pleasing to the eyes of God Almighty, and having for many years considered "EVERY WORD THAT HAS PROCEEDED OUT OF THE MOUTH OF GOD" as recorded in the King James Version of Holy Scriptures, the writer wishes to present the following WITNESS AND TESTIMONY: God is the author of racial separation. It pleased Him to divide mankind into different races. Repeatedly throughout the Old Testament the Hebrews were commanded by God not to intermingle or mix with other tribes or races. We accept that command as His Law governing all races, even as we do His Ten Commandments.

"EVEN THOUGH THE SUPREME COURT RULED SEGREGATION 'UNCONSTITUTIONAL' WITHOUT ANY- CHANGE WHATEVER BEING MADE IN THE WRITTEN CONSTITUTION, 'THE LAW OF GOD STILL STANDS NO COURT CAN CHANGE IT!" History records more than one civilization that disintegrated because it transgressed God's Law and condoned racial integration. Jesus, our Savior, affirmed God's Law regarding racial separation. There was a form of racial separation and segregation segregation between Jews and Samaritans when He was on earth in the flesh. Certainly there is no record of His condemning this. Jesus declared, "I came not to destroy the law but to fulfill it." He fulfilled this by urging us by teachings and examples to be respectful, friendly and helpful to all men.

This is love to our fellow man in proper form in its proper form -Christ's ideal in race relations recognizes the obvious fact of racial differences in the human family and encourages each to develop their own way, retaining their individuality and culture while encouraging and working for the good of all races A great Negro, Booker T. Washington, very wisely put it this way: "We can be as separate as the fingers on the hand; and like the fingers cooperate." We are physical mortals here and now on earth with differences as to race and sex; "AND THE LAW OF GOD REGARDING SEPARATION IN OUR RACIAL RELATIONS IS AS ABSOLUTE NOW AS IT WAS IN THE BEGINNING AND AS IT SHALL BE UNTO THE END!" In this matter it appears we are fighting against God. Read Acts "BUT IF IT BE OF GOD, YE CANNOT OVERTHROW IT LEST HAPLY YE BE FOUND EVEN TO FIGHT AGAINST GOD!" In closing we will give a few suggestions if you wish to develop the thought of "FIGHTING GOD!" The result of the. Snake's suggestion that Eve Eat the Forbidden Fruit. The result of the fight against God in Noah's Day! The result of the fight against God warned of in Acts Titus destruction of Jerusalem.
