Star Without An Audience Is Color Television Subject
—Beat OU—
New York (U.P.)-Color television is nothing new to Patty Painter, who's been its leading-if little known-star for four patient years
Patty, a tiny 22-year-old blonde who came here from Beckley, W.Va., five years ago to model, has spent most of the past four years being photographed for color television, only she's been a star without an audience.
Now, with permission granted tor the Columbia Broadcasting system to begin color television commercially Monday. Nov. 20, Patty's on the verge of fame.
"The most people who ever saw one of my shows was 600 who attended a special demonstration one time in Washington." Patty recalled.
"Id like a sort of informal interview program, just talking about ball games or fashion or children," she said dreamily, as technicians trained cameras on her for a special demonstration at the national business show.
Her opposition from established T-V stars isn't worrying her too
"Sometimes I knit, and sometimes I talk about the brightly-colored props that they put in front of me. I just say what ever comes into my head," she said.
much. Some of them, she figures, will have a little trouble getting used to color.
Patty herself has a fragile blonde beauty, accented by pink-red lip-stick, just a light dusting of powder, and a faint touch of pink rouge. The pastel striped denim blouse she wore has become a sort of uniform, she explained.
"The first thing they'll have to do is wash their faces," she said emphatically. "That heavy makeup looks awful in color."
"Most of the time I just sit in a folding leather chair in the color laboratories while they photograph me," she said, when asked how she managed to sit out four years of experiments.

BE KIND TO YOUR WATCH
WINDING WILLIE
It's a touching sight
To watch silly Willie
Winding his watch
So willy-nilly.
If only poor Willie's
fingers would stop
Before the mainspring
goes flippipy-flopI
LONGINES-WITTNAUER Watchmakers Say: Winding a watch a dozen times a day as a nervous gesture is bad for a watch and prevents it from keeping the best time. It often results in a loose stem or damage to the winding mechanism. Wind your watch once a day, preferably in the morning, at the same hour. For fine watch repairing and guaranteed service, bring our yourailing watch—we are expert watch repairmen, qualified through experience to do fine work.
