A Woman's View (By GAY PAULEY) NEW YORK UPI — He’s the farm boy from Ohio who came to the big city to make good— and did as a fashion designer. She’s the southern belle who came to New York in a personnel Job and became the model for two of the greatest names in the fashion world, Dior and NoreU. They met, he “flipped’ as he said, and so nine years ago they were married. Now, George and Claudia Morgan Halley are partners also In the newest high style firm in New York. They’re the rarity of a husband-wife team in the elegant world of haute couture. Halley is designer and president of the firm which bears his name. Mrs. Halley Is com' pany secretary and still a model. To meld the knowledge a designer has of clothes and the different knowing that a model has calls for some compromises, the young people say. “Claudia’s a good critic,” said Halley. “She says nothing is beautiful unless it works. I do the designing, but if she says she doesn’t like something, I hesitate before I go on. '■Who has the last word? I do —unless she’s right.” George Halley was born 36 years ago on a frrm near Alliance, Ohio, and came to New York immediately after high

school. He took e job at Lord & Taylor in window display and studied painting with the English portraitist. Prank Slater. Charles James, the fashion designer whoee classic costumes today are in museums, hired Halley just from seeing some of his windows in the Fifth Avenue store.

Win Review

By Robert Musel NEW YORK UPI—The scout was on the down escalator of the department store when he spotted a beautiful girl going up the other side. “Walt for me!,” he shouted. "I want to talk to you!” Remarks like that to strange women in Southern department stores can get a man beaten to death by handbags. But that’s one of the hazards of being a professional beauty hunter. In this case the Scout proved his Identity, the suspicious store detectives and customers stepped aside and permitted him to snap a photograph of the girl on the spot And her picture joined the 15,000 others taken during any ordinary year In the ceaseless search for top photographic models by a half dozen or so experts looking for young girls between five feet seven and five feet nine Inches tall with the right cheeckbones, eyes, hair and figure. Recently CBS-TV decided that the 14 girls chosen from this small army for top model grooming must be superlatively photogenic Indeed and with the ratings success of other beauty programs in mind declared that there must be a “model of the year pageant.” The matter was turned over to the skilled hands and eyes of Paul Levitan, director of special events for the network, who has been at various times responsible for Miss America, Miss Teenage America and Miss Universe programs. A man who loves his work, Levitan skimmed through photos of lovely girls the other day and predicted the “model of the year pageant” would be “the sleeper of the year” in the ratings when it Is broadcast Aug. 30. For these thoughtful reasons: “These girls aren't amateurs, they’re professionals,” livitan said, “and the first show of this kind to use professionals. Not only that but they are approaching the very top of a profession which demands great beauty, and the ability to project that beauty for the cameras. Wa will be using new louses and new Ideas In color and lighting so that these qaulIties will reach the screen as never before. “Incidentally these are girl girls. The flat-chested look doesn’t apply here as will be quite evident when they model resort playwear. Girls In swimsuits can be pretty dull when you see a dozen In a row but our models will all be wearing different wardrobes designed especially for them by 14 leading designers.” Levitan said none of the girls chosen for the show has been seen nationally on television more than once—this was a condition for eligibility. The winner will be guaranteed 325,000 in modelling fees for the next year with $15,000 In fees to the runner-up and $10,00 to the third girl. “It’s every models dream to make the cover of a famous magazine,” Levitan said, “and thus be seen by all its readers. Each of our 14 girls will be presented in an electronic magazine cover in full color with an audience of, say, 25 or 30 million watching them equal to the readership of the ten most popular magazines. “If the show becomes an annual event we will invite leading models from other countries. But I don’t see howe any girls can be loveuer than the

group we’ve assembled for Aug. 30.” Joan Fontaine will be host of the program. Magazine editors wil lact as judges. And Noel Harrison Is coaching three of the girls to sing “the fashion models lament”—a heart-rend-ing farewell to whipped cream and chocolates.
