Woman’s View
By GAY PAULEY
By GAY PAULEY UPI Women’s Editor NEW YORK (UPI)—The note that came across my desk informed me that: "Women have claimed another record in their fight for female supremacy.” It went on to say, “a recent study of body dimensions shows that women have an average seat breadth of 14.4 inches to the mere 14 inches recorded by the average man.” I’m not sure that women are in a “fight to female supremacy” to b e g i n with. And certainly not in this area. Equality yes. Equal pay for equal work. Yes. Equal opportunities for education, yes. Equal opportunities for the executive suites, yes. But even equality in seating measurements, no. Diet foods and calorie counters, here we come: What got me started on this subject of derriere dimensions was a batch of statistics o n changing. American girths compiled by the American Seating Co., Grand Rapids, Mich., the concern calls itself the world’s largest producer of public seating for such as theater, school, transportation and stadiums, diums. Naturally, it has to keep track of body changes and when they occur. Man, it has found, today reaches his maximum seat breadth in the ages of 25 to 34. Woman expand later, reaching their maximum breadth between the ages of 45 to 54. Seat breadth is one of the few body measuremens in which women exceeded men in a probability sample of 7,710 persons from aves 18 to 79, reports B. W. Henrikson, vicepresident for research and development for the 82-year-old company. Has To Adapt The seating company notes
that through the years it’s had to adapt to expanding America. The average 17 to 18 inch theater seat of 25 years ago is obsolete and most auditoriums now are using 20, 21 and 22 inch wide seats. Taller and beamier Americans are affecting not only seat sizes. But look at the spurts in sales of king size beds, of tall girl clothes. Where will it all end? Henrikson says the experts predict that the 21st century woman will stand an average of five feet eight inches, man six feet six inches. Anyone for Metrecal? —Heloise Everyone commented that they thought it a marvelous idea. Francis Amer

Heloise
DEAR HELOISE: I’m always having to hunt up my cust cloth every time I clean house. So yesterday, after finishing my cleaning, I decided to wrap the cloth around the can of furniture polish and secure it with a rubber band. Now, all 1 have to do is reach for the polish and the dust cloth is right there, too. Elizabeth Walker * * * DEAR HELOISE: About that idea of putting a bath towel around the pillow for a person who perspires a lot: 1 made a pillow slip out of two bath towels, put the pillow into this case and a regular pillow case over that. This way I have nice smooth material under my head, but still have protection for the pillow. Mrs. Dwight Lovell

Lighter Side
WASHINGTON UPI — My wife and I have a wedding anniversary coming up this week and I don’t mind saying I am under a terrific strain. The trouble is that we seem to be ideally mated. After all these many years I still regard her as a perfect wife, lover and mother of my children. She, in turn, continues to appreciate my many sterling qualities, which grow more numerour as the years roll by. In all of our married life, there has never been a shot fired in anger, and seldom even a discouraging word. This is extremely frustrating, to say the least. For one thing, it makes it difficult to plan a proper anniversary celebration. The custom is to treat a wedding anniversary as a special occasion. The husband takes his wife out to dinner at a place he can’t afford and that sort of thing. No Great Thrill
Crop Report
LAFAYETE, Ind. (UPI)— The weekly crop report for Indiana showed Monday that subsoil and topsoil moisture supplies remained last week at a rating of short to mostly adequate, same as the last previous week. Agricultural statistician Robert E. Straszheim reported thal moisture deficiencies in southern localities were eased by showers, but the central section remained mostly dry. “Wheat harvest progressed seasonally last week,” the report said. “By the end of the week, 85 per cent of wheat had been combined, which is average for this date, but ahead of the 80 per cent harvest last year. “In the southwestern third of the state, harvest was virtually complete. By the end of the week, 90 per cent had been harvested in the south, 85 per cent in the central section and 75 per cent in the north.” “The oats harvest remained behind average but jumped ahead of last year’s progress. By week’s end, 25 per cent of the oats were combined compared to 20 per cent last year and 35 per cent for average. “At the end of last week, 35 per cent of the corn had tasseled. “Soybeans setting idol was behind both average and last year’s progress. Only 10 per cent acre podding compared to 15 per cent last year and 20 per cent average. "Pastures declined to mostly fair to good from a rating of fair to good last week.”

By DICK WEST In our case, however, just being together makes every meal am. brosia. Consequently, there isn’t much point in trying to gild the lilly. Another big frustration stems from the fact that the largest single body of humor in America is built around marital
friction. Guys are forever coming up and telling me jokes of the Maggie-and-Jiggs type. But since I am unable to relate them to my own experience, I miss the punch lines. I have said " I don’t get it” so many times that people have
begun to regard me as a hopeless square. Then there is the matter of party conversation, which is based in large measure on the battle of the sexes. I find my. self unable to participate and as a consequence am rapidly bem becoming a social outcast. Out Of Step In short, I have started to wonder whether there is any longer a place in America for a well-adjusted couple. And the other evening I spoke to my
wife atxMit this. "Sweetheart,” I said, "What’s wrong with us anyway? have become total misfits. Our marriage has worked out so well it’s almost unbearable.” "I know,” she said, l>eing ever understanding. "Every day that passes without a quarrel makes it more difficult to hold the marriage together.” Apparently, however, we are stuck with each other. My lawyer says it’s impossible to obtain a divorce on grounds of compatibility.
