TRUDIE PRINGLE displays an antique doll, one of many
that she has renovated as a hobby. She gives the like-new
dolls, completely wardrobed, to charitable organizations who
distribute them.
An 80 year old doll,
delapidated, disassembled and
well on the road to complete
demolition started Trudie Pringle
on a hobby that grew and grew to
benefit many charitable
organizations, bringing happiness
to countless little hearts.
The doll was given to her by a
brother-in-law, and she set about
the involved task of renovating
the beautiful antique. So
successful was the project, and so
enjoyable did she find it that she
began collecting old and broken
dolls to be rebuilt.
She bought them at auctions,
often acquiring miscellaneous
limbs, heads, and torsos by the
boxful; she purchased them at
rummage sales and second hand
shops and at the Goodwill Stores,
and when people learned of her
work, many were given to her.
First of all the dolls, and parts
of dolls, were thoroughly cleaned
and sterilized by a scrubbing in
lysol solution and soap, after
which the hair was treated with a
human-hair conditioner.
Eyelashes were replaced by new
ones fashioned of the bristles of a
soft paint brush. Limbs were
re-attached with a special elastic
obtained from a supply house.
Stuffing was replaced and split
seams sewn and Patterns made
from paper napkins, laying them
across the doll to be folded and
traced to the desired form.
The dolls are completely
wardrobed, each wearing
undergarments, shoes, sex and
often hats and jewelry as well as
attractive outer garments. Just
like brand new, the dolls are then
given to clubs to be distributed at
Christmas. Mrs. Pringle sometimes
personally presents them to needy
children, also.
The VFW auxiliary last
Christmas was the recipient of 16
of Trudie's dolls, which were
taken to Rainier School at

Bob Bednarski, a member el
the Trailblazers Motorcycle Club,
plans to take off after graduation
for a solo trip to Wisconsin on his
250 cc Yamaha.
"If the bike won't make it,"
he says, "I'll have a long walk."
Bob is the son of Mr. and Mrs.
Robert S. Bednarski and was born
in Shelton on April 20, 1953. He
likes to work with cars, and is a
part-time employee of Gene Evers
Texaco Station.
He studies civics and German

Millie Zimmerman of the
'Sing Along With Millie' program
on radio KGDN at Edmonds, will
be the featured speaker at the
and auto mechanics, and in his
sophomore and junior years
served as track manager and
participated in the Rifle Club. In
this, his senior year, he is an AFS
member and belongs to the
German Club and to the Science
Club.
He is also a member of the
Shelton Rifle and Pistol Club, and
he bowls on the Motorcycle Club
team. He is a CYO member; he is
a member of an Explorer Group
working with law enforcement
officers, and will train in radio
communications from which he
will progress into search and
rescue work.
"The organization was
developed for fellows interested
in going into law enforcement
work," Bob explains, "and this is
my intended career. I plan to

31 Million
Women Work
Men still outnumber women
three to two in the nation's
workforce, but the gale are closing
the gap. Over 31 million of them
now toil in the workplaces of the
country.
Sheer numbers alone don't
tell the whole story of women at
work, however. Despite heroic
efforts by such organizations as
the Women's Bureau over the past
half century, women are still
being discriminated against in
employment.
Only about 7% of the
physicians in the U.S. are women.
A mere 3% are lawyers, same as
15 years ago.
So much remains to be
accomplished before it can truly
be said that women are getting an
even break with men where jobs
are concerned.
Another step in that direction
is represented in meetings slated
for five cities across the country
next month, when the Women's
Bureau will meet with labor and
management to discuss job
discrimination against women.
The Women's Bureau hopes to
learn more about how it can help
employers and unions meet the
requirements for compliance with
anti-discrimination laws, and to
bring about "affirmative action"
to ensure equal opportunities for
men and women at work.
The national director of the
Women's Bureau, Mrs. Elizabeth
Duncan Koontz, will attend each
of the one-day meetings to
present an overview on the
economic status of women, and
existing discrimination that limits
their opportunities.
Mrs. Madeline Mixer, director
of the Women's Bureau in the Far
West region, will coordinate plans
for the February 26 meeting, to
take place in Boise, Idaho.
Similar meetings are
scheduled for Kansas City,
Boston, Atlanta, and Detroit.
