Kitchen Gadgets Steal Spotlight In Model Floor Plan Display
New York—(U.P)The gadgets stole the spotlight from the floor plan in a new model kitchen display here.
A food slicer clamped on the edge of one of the gleaming work surfaces sliced everything from bread to roasts. An electric liquidizer did everything but peel an orange. It even squeezed juice from a banana. It chopped nuts, shaved ice, grated cheese.
marbled cheese, grated cheese,
whipped cream and ground meat.
The floor cleaner and polisher had fingertip control. An indoor clothes dryer was backed up to the automatic washer for quick winter drying.
The latest word in kitchens was set up alongside a reproduction of a 19th century kitchen to show the contrast between a "Kitchen of Yesterday and Tomorrow."
The doors of the metal cabinets in the new kitchen were all on springs so that a slight touch of the finger sent them swinging shut. The drawers slid out on metal rollers with only a slight touch.
The dryer is a porcelain-finish chest measuring about two by three feet. The manufacturers (Continental Radiant Glass Heating Corp.) says it will hold a normal family wash and dry it in about an hour and a half. The lid lifts up to show adjustable bars on racks above two electrically heated glass panels. The dryer will sell for just under $100.
But the brand new work saving devices stole the show. Most of them are available in stores now, but the clothes dryer won't be on the market for three or four weeks.
The latest toaster is a combination sandwich and bread toaster. It operates on the pop-down principle. The toast slides down into a holder scooped out of one side of the toaster. Crumbs drop along with the toast so they can't clog up the inner workings.
Two extra sandwich grills come with the toaster to slip into the toast openings. Sandwiches can be held in the grills so the bread can be toasted and the filling heated at the same time. The sandwich toaster is made by the Delta Manufacturing Corp., of Philadelphia, to sell for just under $25.
A tiny infra-red cooker that cuts cooking time to minutes sat on a small table against one wall of the model kitchen. The manufacturers say it's ideal for cooking frozen foods. The infra-red rays defrost and cook the food almost instantly. Frozen foods even can be cooked in the cellophane package.

Hollywood—(U.R.)—Corinne Calvet, the movie mademoiselle from Paree, stacked American men up against those great French lovers today and—to heck with Claude Marsan—said she'd take a Yankee every time.
Ehrlich To Be Soloist
Yankee Men Beeg, Strong Loffly Says Hollywood Parisian Actress
Marsan, you'll remember, was the "wooer of weemen—wow!" who cam charging out of France to rescue American womanhood from their "louse loyaires."
He said the local boys didn't know from nothing on how to keep a lady happy, told a gang of 'teen-agers just what they did wrong, and is now doing time in the clink for putting on an indecent show.
For a long time those "wheestles" were all she could understand. La Calvet hit Hollywood without know- Calvert declared. "Ze men wheesteing a word of English. That didn't slow down the local wolves-about-town any, but she spent many an evening on the "strip" not understanding a thing her escorts were whispering in her ear.
Miss Calvert says pooh to this Marsan. She says American men do all right. She's not just being tactful in a foreign country, either. She just married one, ex-football star John Bromfield, now an actor, too.
"In Paree eef a man whetled at me I would slap hees feet," Miss led in New York, but I 'ad been warned to expect zat."
A deep-sea theme will be carried out at the freshman party tomorrow night. The walls of the Union ballroom will be decorated with fish nets, mermains, and deep sea divers with the coke bar resembling a sunken ship and the band stand depicting a broken wharf. The party is semi-formal and will last from 9 p.m. until midnight.
