Travelers nix restless nigh
Pillow-to-go ensures good snooze tit
By Judy Hevrdejs
KRT CAMPUS
They have lost sleep trying to
squish hotel pillows into comfy
submission and spent restless
nights at relatives’ homes where
guest-room pillows were as lumpy
as lousy mashed potatoes.
They have given up finding
comfortable pillows on the road.
They are the people who
pack pillows when they travel.
With the holiday travel sea
son kicking off this week,
expect to find them at railway
stations, bus stations, interstate
rest stops and just off interna
tional flights and red-eyes from
the West Coast.
"I travel sometimes with a
neck roll. 1 also travel with a little
roll that has seeds and fragrance in
it," said Clodagh, the Irish-born,
New York-based designer and
feng shui devotee. "A lot of us
who travel a lot are attached to pil
lows for one reason: comfort."
Few of the pillow-packers
fresh from rides on Amtrak’s
California Zephyr and Empire
Builder at Chicago's Union
Station one recent afternoon
would disagree.
"It's down and it's comfy and
it's a lot bigger than the ones
they give you," said 24-year-old
Carolyn Whitmer of the bed pil
low accompanying her in coach
from Montana to Ohio.
Benjamin Johnson, 21, cush
ioned his trip from his St. Cloud,
Minn., home to Boston with
help from a plump bed pillow. "I
would not be able to sleep with
out it," he said, noting that he
also had packed a blanket.
So, did it help?
"I was totally out," Johnson
said. "I was the last one off the
train."
There was a more pragmatic
reason for 19-year-old Leslie
Mays of Kirksville, Mo., to trav
el with her bed pillow. "I'm stay
ing in a hostel, and it could be
nasty, so I brought my own pil
low," she said, "just in case."
That many people travel with
pillows—from neck-nuzzling
travel pillows to full-size bed
pillows—doesn't surprise

sociology and American studies
at the University of Notre Dame.
When he recently asked the
18 students in one of his classes
about their pillow-packing prac
tices, four people said they trav
el with pillows.
"For at least two of them, it
was functional. They are on
sports teams, and they travel on
the bus a lot," he said. "They
take it for comfort on the bus,
which is understandable."
Understandable, too, are the
be-prepared travelers toting pil
lows in the face of possible lay
overs and the less-than-comfort-
able seating designs found in so
many waiting rooms. Said Halton,
"A pillow could be very function
al to grab five minutes’ rest."
Two others in Halton's class
offered reasons beyond simple
function for toting pillows.
"One guy said he doesn't like
to use hotel pillows," Halton said.
"They have a stale smell. Another
guy said he sleeps with five pil
lows ... and when he's in hotels,
they're not thick enough.
Halton. who co-wok
book "The Meaning of 1
Domestic Symbols and
Self." points to the funed
aspects of pillows as wells
comfort factor as the pne
reason people travel wii
"If you take the literalb
of ‘comfort.’ it is to cm
strengthen. In that sense,te
lows that people take with:
for more than functional it
are like mini-comforters.
And. he added, if people)
sider their bedrooms a pta
privacy, a place where theja
shut out the world, thenpii
a pillow makes sense.
"We all like to have
sense of refuge somewhere

NEWS IN BRIEF
Roy Disney resigns from
Walt Disney Company board
The full board is scheduled to meet
and Tuesday in New York. Board
on the meeting agenda.
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Disney vice chairman
Roy E. Disney has resigned from the media
giant’s board of directors, sources close to the
company said Sunday. He reportedly called on
chairman Michael Eisner to resign as well.
Disney’s resignation may be a pre-emptive move
to avoid being forced off the board of The Walt
Disney Co. The board’s governance and nominat
ing committee has decided not to recommend
Disney for another term because he is over the
mandated retirement age of 72, said the sources,
who spoke on condition of anonymity.
