Imiwf, Stp'frwbtr 23, 1953 20 Decorator Now Haunted By Over-Size Tables By OLGA CURTIS New York, Sept. 22 (INS Dpcorator William Pahlmann, a strapping six-footer with a healthy tan, claims he's a haunted man. He says he's haunted by over-sized cocktail tables. But he also admits he brought it on himself.

Pahlmann is the decorator who started the fad for enormous i 14s i 4 cocktail tables. When he first placed an enormous low table in a room, the idea was greeted with huzzahs and everyone copied the idea. Trouble is, Pahlmann laments, that the idea still is beinc copied in spite of smaller houses, smaller furniture and TV. "The cocktail table." he said today, "is an essential piece of furniture. But nobody seems to think of it as sensibly as other furniture asking if it will fit into 'Dropping by 9 Man Office Poor Policy By RUTH MILLKTT a room or mock tranic.

And he eagerly offered to set this several times a month, to ask for money, to 'take me to women straight on how to choose a conee taoie. lunch' as she puts it, or just to "First question," said Pahlmann, "is do you need a cocktail table?

Well, there's how one husband feels about office-hour visits by his wife. And there must be almost as many men who feel the same way as there are un-busi-nesslike wives who make a habit of dropping in on their husbands while the men are at work.

Yet the men are on a spot. They know if they try to point out that such visits aren't a good i PLEATS ADD INTEHEST to a lau ana winter aress of Thalspun Orion and wool jersey.
