-PITTSBURGH POST GAZETTE: They Can't Make Us Wear By ELEANOR ADAMETS POOFF-make the midi disappear! That incantation might well be Juli Reding Hutner's slogan if she had a magic wand to shake at the world. Even without magic, she is doing her best to resist what she considers "dictatorial commands of couture designers" to abandon "mini" or knee-length skirts in favor of the calf-length "midi" skirts coRrectionhowing in most fall "How dare they think they can make us wear the midi!" Mrs. Hutner said indignantly as she smoothed the skirt of her own above-the-knee dress with her hand. "Designers don't like minis because they say they're not We don't believe a woman can be made elegant solely on the basis of the length of her skirt." Mrs. Hutner, former actress and mother of teen-age twin boys, is founder of a Los Angeles group dedicated to the principle of freedom of choice in women's fashions.

Whimsically known as POOFF (Preservation Of Our Femininity and Finances), it has gained nation-wide coverage of its efforts to keep hemlines above the knee. IN: LOS ANGELES, where Mrs. Hutner and several friends started the group "for fun," Mayor Sam Yorty even proclaimed "POOFF Week" SO women could set up POOFF booths to collect signatures for petitions to be sent to clothing designers and manufacturers to convince them that women do not want to wear midi dresses. Bride's Home Scene For Ceremony Marjorie Sue Morgan and Joel Lee Caplan were united in marriage at the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs.

Israel Morgan of Squirrel Hill. Rabbi Dr. Joseph Shapiro per1 formed the recent ceremony. Honor attendants were the bride's two sisters, Sharon Morgan and Mrs. Jerry Josephs.

The bride's nieces, Marni and Carolyn Josephs, were chosen as flower girls. The bridegroom, son of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Caplan of Squirrel Hill, asked his father to serve as best man. Ushers included Robert Caplan, Ronald Caplan and Jeffrey Caplan.

Michael Morgan and Eric Caplan were ring bearers. Mr. and Mrs. Caplan are at home in Carnegie following their return from Paradise Island in the Bahamas. Post-Gazette Photo Juli Reding Hutner in her "above-the-knee" dress.

Mrs. Camille Horty, of Oakland, whose husband John is also on the Aspen board, is a personal friend of Mrs. Hutner's. She has offered to be Pittsburgh representative for POOFF.

"I won't wear a midi even on Halloween," Mrs. Horty said with determination as she poured coffee for her guest. "I've already informed my favorite shop that I won't buy anything there except short skirts and tops." MRS. HUTNER, who looked quite elegant in a black, tightfitting bodiced dress with lacy puffed sleeves (California designer Jean-Louis shortened it "to admitted that some of the 600 women in her organization would probably buy one or two midis this fall for their wardrobe. "Some women would like to have a midi to add a costume look to their wardrobes," she said.

"If we can accomplish one thing--to get women to wear what looks best on them-then POOFF will have achieved it's objective."

Please repeat it, Ann. Many thanks.

CINCINNATI ADMIRER DEAR CINCY: Here it is. If you are not part of the solution you are part of the problem. Legal Notices figured he had made love to his wife about 5,000 times. He observed that after 5,000 times, even if it was all chateaubriand, a man might like some cold lobster for a change. Why can't women understand this? Most men, if they are normal, stray occasionally.

A wife who raises hell about it will not look more attractive to her husband, nor will she make him behave better. La Rochefoucauld said, "There may be good marriages but there are no exquisite ones." I know you can't endorse infidelity, Ann, but millions of women read your column and an enlightened approach such as this one could start a trend. How about it? Do you CREEK DEAR BAT: A trend? Toward what? Longer leashes? Sanctioned infidelity? What about a trend for women who might enjoy cold lobster "for a change?"

In a paneled room, decorated in autumn hues, a suntanned Leonard Weitzman, executive director of the Vocational Rehabilitation Center of Allegheny County (VRC), not too modestly described his agency as "the finest facility in the world." Addressing the geographic unit chairmen for the 1970 United Fund campaign a meeting the other day, Weitzman indicated his remark covered both the new physical plant, located on Forbes Ave.

in Uptown, and the programs offered to 2500 people annually in 20 counties of Western Pennsylvania. Morton Bregman assistant executive director of VRC, then gave a brief history of the United Fund-aided agency to the women, who will work to raise funds for such organizations during the annual campaign, set for Oct. through Nov. 4 this year. The sole aim of VRC, Bregman said, is "to help people get to work and to help people remain at work." Statistics reveal, he said, that 81 percent of VRC's clients will remain employed for a year or more following training at the agency.

started out by helping European immigrants adjust to the American way of work and became, Bregman remarked, the first agency in the country to include psychiatrically-disabled people in its programs. PRESENT clients, ranging in age from 16 to 85, include one third retarded, one third emotionally disabled, and one third physically disabled. VRC sometimes deals with clients who have been "institutionalized in their own "They can't read," Bregman commented.
