The Lititz Record - Express Serving The Warwick Area For Nearly A Century 94th Year E s ta b lis lie d A p ril, 1877, a s The S u n b e am (C o n so lid a te d -with T h e I a t i t z R e cord, 1937) Lititz, Lancaster County, Penna., Thursday, July 30,1970 10 c e n ts a Copy; $4.00 p e r y e a r b y m a il •within ¿ a n c a s t e r C o u n ty 22 Pages — No. 17 Lititz Red Tag Sales Days This Weekend; Many Good Bargains fit' r J1 "■ * JmM >J X. Members of the Woodridge swimming team of Lititz pose with their team symbol, a grog. Looking like a cross between an oversized pumpkin and a frog, the grog was made out of a sheet stuffed with paper — with some features and clothing added. Team members from left to right are: Amy Williams, Colleen Hacker, Sally Good, Barb Hess, Gary Shelly, team coach, Gary Coble, Sharon Posey; Chris Eichelberger, Jennie Long and Lori Marks. The team met Millersville Tuesday night and will compete in the divisional Saturday with Golden Meadows, Skyline, Brookside, Overlook and Millersville. Many Lititz Area Craftsmen Will Be Active In Pa. Guild Fair at Millersville Aug. 5-8 Batik and silk-screened wall hangings done by a Lititz woman, Mrs. T. Fred Weaver of 428 Laurel St., will be among the many exhibits at the annual ■Craft Fair of -the Pennsylvania Guild of Craftsmen next week at Millersville State College. The Conestoga Valley Chapter of the Guild, including Lancaster City and County, is host for the event, to he held August 5, 6, 7 and 8 in Lyle Hall dining room on the MSC Campus. Hours are 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. except August 8 when they are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Mrs. Weaver, who is secretary of the Conestoga Chapter, is one of few Lititz residents -actually displaying any work even though quite a few local people are taking part in the fair in other capacities. Mrs. Weaver’s specialties are batik printing, silk screening and pottery. ~ - A member of the Guild for about a year and a half, Mrs, Weaver explained that she learned her crafts by watching exhibits at meetings of the chapter. At each -meeting, she went on, someone demonstrates a particular craft., Many members attend workshops -to learn crafts -and, in turn, show fellow members ¡how to do them. Tlie Batik Process The batik process Mrs. Weaver enjoys using to create striking wail hangings is done by painting a design on white cloth with hot beeswax. There are tools for -this purpose, hut she found that a stiff brush worked better for her. The first sten is to draw the design which is to remain white. When the beeswax is dry, the cloth is dipped into the lightest color of dye to be used, such as yellow. Then, the part of the design that is to remain yellow is covered with beeswax, and dipped. This process is repeated for each color to be used, working from lightest to darkest.' When the design-painting and dyeing processes are completed, the -entire cloth is dipped into melted paraffin. Then, it is -allowed to dry out fill the paraffin is hard. The entire piece of cloth is then crinkled and dipped into dye again to create a delicate cobweb effect. It’s a time-consuming and quite intricate -process, Mrs. Weaver adds, but she -likes to do intricate things. Although she’s just starting, she finds it ¡a lot of fun. Silk Screening Mrs. Weaver also works in silk screening design for w-all hangings or materials to be.used in a dress. For example, she did a silkscreen print for a dress to be worn by Mrs. Philip Richards of Martieville, who will demonstrate the making ’of natural dyes during the fair. The panel, done in shades of green, brown, purple and yellow, consists -of -a center stem ending' in daisy-like flowers, surrounded by walnu-ts on one side and onions on the other—-to show -the materials from which natural dyes might be made. These are falling into pots from which the dye is pouring. The panel was then sewn into a dress by Mrs. Robert P. Mearig, 337 E. Second Ave. It’s a sleeveless shift style of linen-like material. Mrs. Mearig says she w-on’t enter any of her crafts in the juried competition, but maybe will nffer for sale some of her work in various fabrics. Mrs. Weaver also enjoys making hand-formed pottery. By this she means that the solid clay is formed into -a specified shape by hand rather than poured in liquid form into a mold. She attended a recent seminar in the use of 'an open pit kiln to make Indian pottery, preparing -the day from earth. It was supposed to turn coal black in -the ' firing process, she admits, but -too much -oxygen in the fire resulted in white pottery. She claims to be just a beginner in pottery but finds it very interesting. Mrs. Walter to Enter Another Lititz -area woman who plans to enter -the show is Mrs. Henry Walter Jr., Lititz RD3. She will enter some of her creative weaving in the juried exhibit, using hand-spun and vegetable-dyed linen. Mrs. Walter also plans to demonstrate weaving' August 7. •She -has been- weaving for about five years, but has spent about 1 years doing- tole-painling, which is painting on tin. She will -demonstrate this process with Mrs. Ellsworth- M. McMullen. Mrs. Walter also will take part in the spinning bee scheduled August 8 from 1 to 5 p.m. Chairman -of overall plans for ¡thei'air is Mrs. Robert C. Umlauf Jr., ¡of Neffsville, who is -also chairman of standards for the Conestoga Chapter. She explained that anyone who wishes -to display his craft at the fair must meet minimum standards of the guild — high-quality craftsmanship and design. The Juried Exhibit In order for a member to enter something -in the juried exhibit, he must mee-t even more stringent standards. These crafts which meet the reauicements will comprise -the juried exhibit to be on display in the center of the dining hall. Judging ¡these items for the best-oi-juried-show prizes will be Theresa Capua-na, handcrafts editor of Woman’s Day magazine; Karen E. A. Strawbridge, a teacher -of weaving and slitchery; and Donald Winer, director -of fine arts at William -Penn Memorial Museum, Harrisburg, A sale will be conducted of those -articles craftsmen wish -to sell which meet -the basic requirements -of the standards committee. The Craft Fair Among' the special démonstrations of both traditional and modern crafts -to be given will be weaving, pottery, jewelry-making, pewter-making, silver-smithing, woodworking and spinning. Paul Eshelman, well-known woodworker, is in charge of demonstrations, ¡and Mrs. Eshelman is in charge of the spinning demonstrations. Gardner Fassett, Lancaster, (Continued on Page 2) A Lititz boy, 13-year-old Richard Busch, son of Mr. and Mrs. Richard Busch, 508 W. Marion St., received an award as the “youngster who showed the most potential as an ¡artist” in the Outdoor Art Show held Saturday in Lititz. Richie, the only Lititz prizewinner in -the show, presented an exhibit of varied media in the 12 to 14 age group. Among his,works were black and white still lifes drawn with -a felt-tip marking pen, -a butterfly drawn in colored pencils, and assorted -arrangements ol weathered wood, stained -glass and' copper wire. _ He also designed a clever arrangement with the title, “Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner.” Using a curved -piece of wood, he worked copped wire into ’a spider web on which he placed a little spider -and a bug.
