Fashion Fads
By Marcia Fischer
Spring is just around the
corner and with it comes the job
of picking out your new spring
suit. This year, with fashion dic
tates not as tyrannical as they
have been in the past, choosing a
new suit and accessories can make
a delightful shopping trip.
You may pick any number of
styles or colors, and, though the
accent is on a few special mix
tures, you will still be right in
style.
First and foremost, in choosing
any new outfit, is to choose a
suit to suit your figure. If you
are tall and statuesque, you may
successfully pick a tunic suit, or
a slim sheath with a box jacket
topping it.
If you happen to have a short
and plump figure and just can't
seem to get rid of those extra
pounds, don't purchase a boxy
suit that only emphasizes weight,
instead, do pick a fitted suit with
a slightly shorter jacket.
Short Jacket Trend
For those of the perfect or near
p)erfect proportions, there are any
number of styles to pick from.
The trend this year is toward a
short jacket, and preferably a slim
skirt, though full skirts are still
in vogue for the younger set. If
the suit jacket is fitted then it
will come just below the waist.
If the jacket is boxy then two
more styles are available, either
bolero, or the regular box type
jacket, which ends just below the
waist. So, as you see there is no
definite p)lace for the waist line
this year. Any thing from high
princess style to a modified flap
per will (10.

__there is great variety. Since the

cotton look like wool and silk
look like tweed, these light weight
fabrics have been made into en
chanting new suits. The ability
of these fabrics to withstand hard
wear and wrinkles, and that most
of the new material's can be
washed is a great advantage.
Checks after years of ostracism
have reappeared and are running
wild on the fashion front. They
appear as fabric designs for suits
andl dresses, trim for blouses, and
swecaters, umbrellas, and just
about any other accessory that can
be thought of.
Spring colors ar spring colors
again this year. Bright yellows,
p)inks, corals and leaf greens are
making the news.
This will give an idea of the
suit styles, colors, and fabrics to
choose from. Next week: What
to wear with your new suit.

If one reads any of the popular
nagazines and sees page after
)age of advertisements for wo
nen's fashions, he may get the
dea that there are no fashions for
nen and turn- away, cold and dis
eartened.
He may even develop an in
'eriority complex and feel that
:he male species of the human
race is being neglected from the
avorld of fashions. Far from it.
While there is, I admit, a large
percentage of advertisement space
?oing to women's garb, man is
gaining-and in 2,000 years from
now he might even catch up.
Men's Fashions Have Gained
Seriously, men's fashions have
gained in popularity and anyone
who believes that fashions pour
l'homme are the same as they
were in the twenties is an old
fogy.
Big plaids in gay colors are
also still in the news. McGregor
and McKinsey clan plaids are the
leaders in this field. You might
also find matching tie and belt,
or better yet, matching handker
chiefs and belts.
Fashion for men has now gone
to light colors and light wear.
Casualness is the keyword. This
is especially true in the field of
sport coats. "ESQUIRE" recom
mends a novel idea in this field,
that of turning to knitted coats
that look like tweed and wear
with the freedom of sweaters.
Suede Jackets
Other innovations are suede
jackets that have been treated to
make the leather washable as well
as cleanable, shirts in racy, sport
colors, sweaters that have no trim
whatsoever.
Checks are in again, especially
for sport coats. Fleece coats in
wonder fabrics and pastel colors
are also making the news.
There. Now you know. Why
go to class in those old faded dun
garees and frayed shirt? With
fashionable clothes you can easily
become the center of attraction
and make a hit with that girl
across the aisle.
Masonic Club
Organized,
Heads Picked
A Masonic Club has recently
been organized on the University
campus. William D. RLhoad of

Other officers include Earl
Spangler of Winston-Salem, N. C.,
