Orange Juice Is
Plugged By New
"Miss America"
By flAKMAN W. NICHOLS
Washington. Sept. :«> <u:e>—
What would you expect the new
M iss America to plug but the juice
of the orange? Lee Ann Meriweth-
er hails from California and was
fetched up in the proper manner.

last convention of talent and leg
showoff, wastes no time telling
anybody who'll listen that Bhe's •«
loyal daughter of the Golden Gate
state.
"What I like best is orange
juice," she said white here to
watch the National Celebrities golf
tournament. "I have it for break-
fast. I have it when I feel a need
for a lift-up coining on. There is
nothing like an orange—no mat-
ter where it comes from." The
lovely lady from California has as
one of her sponsors the citrus folks
from Florida.
"I never drink coffee,'' the San
Francisco brownette added, as if
she regarded it as a competitor.
Lee Ann is five feet, eight inch-
es tall. She is about the size the
pageant committee wants on the
road to typify the real all-Ameri-
cun girl.
Mostly, the judges usually look
for a musician, but Lee Ann gives
with the dramatics. And apparent-
ly she gives right well.
A Lip Artist
I had never seen the K>>"1 before
she came here. But she has natur-
al beauty, she doesn't use muci
eye makeup and she skimps on
the lip rouge. She fixes her own
l.air, wash, curl and all.
And if you potential beauties
are listening, the young iaciy starts
off her lipstick routine with a fat

spong* and applies h«r lipstick
with a sponge. She is what you
might call a lip artist. The end
result is fine. Same with the other
makeup, which she does with a
professional touch.
Lee Ann thinks that a gal can
use about the same makeup in
the daytime that she uses at night.
Guess.—What for Breakfast
"I don't worry much about my
figure," she said. "I drink orange
juice."
The western beauty is a tittle
off the scale for the perfect wo-
man, who is supposed to wear thw
same size bust as hips. Her bust
is 34 bit inches, hips 35. He waist
is right trim, 22 inches.
She eats what she jolty well
pleases, mostly orange juice to
hear her tell it. Her weight is 124
pounds and she isn't wormed about
piling it on the wrong places.
Here at breakfast the other
morning she started out with a big
glass of thess-what, and then went
to work on apricots, six sausages,
some egg rolls.
And for a kicker another glass
of orange juice.
Coffee Prices
Cut Predicted
By December 31
NEW YORK, Sept. 30 Cof-
fee prices will be slashed 10 to 15
cents a pound by Dec. 31, industry
sources predicted Tuesday.
They said consumer resistance
had cut coffee consumption about
20 percent.
"The law of supply and demand
"ill push prices down- further,'
said one leading coffee roaster who
declined to be quoted by name.
" Prices must go -down because we
have more coffee available now
than vve had a year ago."
Last spring, the industry was
predicting continued high prices
for another year or so. Coffee
men said coffee production, cut by
heavy frosts in Brazil, wouldn't get
back to normal before that time.
Until there was more coffee to sell,
prices would remain about the
same, they said.
A couple events tripped the ex-
nerts. Brazil, which produces about
half of the coffee used in this coun
try. devaluated its currency about
six weeks ago. This had the effect
of making coffee cheaper in this
country. Prices tumbled almost im-
mediately. Some brands slashed the
price tag as much as ll> cents a
pound.
From Washington last week
came news destined to send prices
even farther down, according to
coffee sources. The Agriculture De-
partment said the world coffee
crop for tile 1953-54 season totaled creases which sent coffee prices able
41.4 million bags—about 1 million as high aa $1.45 a boom.
more bags than were consumed
during that period.
So far this year, price cuts hav j
shaved some 40 percent off the in-
paints, enainei, wallpsps*
wall fabric, and linoleum.
