The Great Impostor
Rayon is often treated
so it has a smooth and lus
trous finish which gives it
the look and feel of silk.
Rayon is very sensi
tive to water. Many dyes
applied to rayon are not
colorfast and will bleed
which causes a shading to
occur upon contact with
moisture. In addition, manufacturers
often add sizing to rayon in order to
achieve a desired body or drape.
Some sizings are water-soluble and
washing will distort the shape of the
garment.
Drycleaning is recommended for
most rayon garments be
cause a professional dry-
cleaner is able to solve most
of these problems. How
ever. some garments whose
care label reads “dryclean
only" contain dyes and siz
ings that are water soluble.
Never try to remove a
stain from rayon without
first pretesting the fabric. Wet a small
piece of the garment on an unexjxised
seam and allow it to air dry. If no dye or
sizing change occurs, small stains may
be removed in this way. Large stains
should always be taken to an IFI mem
ber professional drycleaner.

Operation Breakthrough
Weatherization Program
Makes Homes Warmer
Mis. Adkins’ home was one of
the homes weatherized last month
by the two-man crew from
Operation Breakthrough’s Energy
Department. According to Allen
Powell, Coordinator of the
Weatherization Program, "More
than 100 homes are weatherized
each year." Powell, who has been
with the program since 1979 says,
"There is a clear distinction
between weatherization and
winterization."
Operation Breakthrough’s
program is distinctly
weatherization according to Fred
McNeill, executive director, and
has two primary objectives; "One is
to stop the infiltration of cold air
into the house, the other is to stop
heat from seeping from the house
through windows, door sills, cracks
and other areas. The
"weatherization" program is more
effective and efficient than
"winterization" which usually
encompasses caulking cracks,
coveting windows with plastic and
other superficial approaches to
reducing cold air from coming in
and heat going out.
Operation Breakthrough’s
Weatherization Program is
designated to make homes more
energy efficient, making sure that
residents are more comfortable
with using less heat The broad
based weatherization work
includes: repairing outside walls,
installing insulation in walls, floors
and attics; putting weather stripping
around doors, putting in door sills
to insure tighter fit, and installing
