Mink goes on tailored tweeds and flannels, on velvet and brocade evening cos tumes. Slathers of black and white fox trim tweed, day clothes and slinky evening clothes. Street coats are sable-collared. Leopard, ocelot and lynx appear on coats, suits and sport clothes. American broadtail is handled like fabric to make suit jackets and evening bodices. Color is used as a form of self expression, so will be more im portant than for many seasons. The startling boldness of black and white is used in poster-like splashes. Strong modern-art color contrasts, strange Oriental color harmonies and garden-flower color bouquets are all part of the excite ment. Red comes in a broad scale; rose red, cerise, magenta, fuchsia, American Beauty, ruby, scarlet, crimson, burgundy and garnet. You'll see a wide span of blues, from ice to porcelain, peacock and dark sapphire. Emerald, nile, absinthe and jade green are important for evening, as are lemon yellow, saffron and Spanmsh gold. Pure white and the creamy tones of ivory and mag nolia deepen into beige and fawn, the latter planned to blend with mink and sable. Apricot, mauve and heliotrope are modern echoes of the pastel prettiness of 1912. Echoing the Bakst and Piret designs of the same epoch is the exotic clash of black and gold, bottle green and pink, brown with orange, emerald green with pale blue. Frank frilliness and sparkling prettiness will exile "casual" and "uncluttered" as style catch-words. Trimming for its own sake is once again a factor, and the more expensive, the more dazzling, the more it attracts. Satin pipings, little flat bows, fluttering chiffon scarfs, spangled ascots, real lace collars, sequins, fine beading, bril liant jewel embroidery, flowers, flowers and more flowers make up the delicious and imaginative frou frou.

Lighter Garb Makes Horses Tasks Easy By Dick Smith Staff Writer Whenever you feel you're sacri ficing comfort for the sake of fashion, be grateful the Days of Yore have gone by the board. The clothing of our age is easily the most comfortable yet devised (with the notable exception of the Toga and Loin-cloth), and the mid-century man - with light weight fabrics, newer methods of tailoring-out excess cloth, and superior fitting arrangements available everywhere-is the most comfortably attired animal in his tory. Things were not always so good: When Richard Couer de Lion charged off to make Jerusa lem safe for the Pilgrims, he trav eled through extreme climates clad in some 58 pounds of clothing (dis counting helmet and visor). The Good King, in fact, was so heavy in full battle array that a special hoist was required to lift him onto his brave steed. In those days when Knighthood flowered, the man-about-town, af ter knocking off a few score dragon with his bloody gonfalon, would require two hours' dressing time to prepare him for the en suing celebration. His ladyfair, who Anglo-Saxonized herself with flour-paste makeup and rubbed Limeoil into her garments to ward off B.O., took twice as long. Things being as they were, most of the da ywas consumed with eating, killing dragons, dressing, and tell ing each other lies. It is easy to understand why they didn't get too much done in the Dark Ages. From these pitiful years when the citizenry figured there wasn't too much sense in bothering with the transient life on earth, down through the Renaissance, the Christian Wars, Reformation, and the gilded ages of Intellectual En lightenment, fashions had invari ably accoutered Mankind with ex cessive ornaments, medals, swords, and pounds of lace. It isn't diffi cult to imagine Louis, the Sun King of France, chasing through the halls of Versailles, handi capped by sixteen yards of silk and a hogshead of Mechlin Lace. ~Notable Renegades There were some notable rene gades: certain Indian tribes wore nothing during the summer months, but this seemed to be carrying the Age of Enlighten ment a bit too far, and the Euro peans piled on more lace and stoically faced the debunking, King-tumbling nineteenth century. The new age brought forth its rebels. George Brummel, a drink ing friend of the English Prince of Wales, created the black-and white ensemble which hasn't yet rubbed from our culture. One of his contemporaries, however, had an even quainter remedy for the clothing situations: Field Marshall Junot, one of Bonaparte's cohorts, took the liberty,'during a Turkish parade in his honor, of attending the festivities attired in his sword and sword belt. He committed sui cide that afternoon before supper, so no one took him seriously. sell House. 7 p.m. - Newman Club, fresh men, Newman House, 1610 Green Street. 7:30 p.m. --- Inter-varsity Fel lowship, social activity and fel lowship, Russell House.

At the game, in spite of the cold weather, were Dale Hawkinson, Phil Donlin, Alex Reed, Bob Morris, Jim and Lucy Lippard, Frank Mims, Francis Pinckney, Skip Paine, "Bo" Nelson, Wayne Kilgore,. Zoe Dutrow, Warren Scovil and Bet Rembert. Some of the Sigma Chi's and their dates went to the game and So stayed in Charlotte afterward to party . . . in this group were Bob McCarty and Ann McElwee, Gene Griffith and Blanche Fowles, Bonnie Ledbetter and Mac Corbet, Bob Mackey and Jane Rosenblath, Toy Gregory (UNC) and "Pee Wee" Bator, and Dick Howard and Martha Ann Caldwell. More About The Wake Forest Game Just about the whole Xi chapter of Pi Kappa Alpha went to the game and attended'an Open House afterward given for the PiKa's Sid Badger, Bill Lee and Peepsie Evans, Louis Houston, Bill Dean, Ozzie and Imo Hudson, Carl Cannon and Gail Appleby, Bob Lenn, Woody Lovelace and Becky Dillingham enjoyed the gaiety. Others in the crowd were Alex Hawkins, Sid Gissendanner and Jim Duncan. More N. C.

In Columbia Columbia was still the site of Carolina merry-making despite the migrations to other places. At the Carillon Ball many of the Phi (Continued on page 5) (Author of "Barefoot Boy With Cheek," etc.) EAT, DRINK, AND BE MARRIED On a recent tour of seven million American colleges, I was struck by two outstanding facts: first, the great number of students who smoke Philip Morris; and second, the great number of students who are married. The first phenomenon - the vast multitude of Philip Morris smokers - comes as no surprise, for what could be more intelligent than to smoke Philip Morris? After all, pleasure is what you smoke for, and pleasure is what Philip Morris delivers. Try one. Light up and see for yourself.... Or, if you like, don't light up. Just take a Philip Morris, unlighted, and puff a couple of times. Get that wonderful flavor? You bet you do! Even with out lighting you, can taste Philip Morris's fine natural tobacco. Also, you can make your package of Philip Morris last practically forever. No, I say, it wvas not the great number of Philip Morris arnokers that astounded me; it was the great number of married students. Latest statistics show that at some coeducational colleges, the proportion of married undergraduates runs as high as twenty per cent! And, what is even more startling, fully one-quarter of these naarriages have been blessed with issue ! Now, to the young campus couple who are parents for the first time, the baby is likely to be a source of con siderable worry. Therefore, let me devote today's column to a few helpful hints on the care of babies. First of all, we will take up the matter of diet. In the past, babies were raised largely on table scraps. This, however, was outlawed by the Smoot-Hlawley Act, and today babies are fed a scientific formula consisting of dextrose, maltose, distilled water, evaporated milk, and a twist of lemon peel. .After eating, the baby tends to grow sleepy. A lullaby is very useful to hell) it fall asleep. In case you don't know any lullabies, make one up. For example: Go to sleep, my little infant, Goo-goo moo-moo poo-poo binflant. . A baby sleeps best on its stomach, so place it that way in its crib. Then to rhake sure it wvill not turn itself over during the night, lay a soft but fairly heavy object on its back - another baby, for instance. S,as you see, raising a baby Is no great problem. All you need is a little patience and a lot of love. -Also (diapers, rompers, soakers, crib), mattress, sheets, bumpers, blankets, high chair, diapers, talcum, baby oil, fish liver oil, paregoric, diapers, safety pins, cotton, cotton covered toothpicks, bottles, dliap)ers, nipples, dliapers, bottle brushes, booties, diapers, nighties, wvrappers, diapers, rattles, teething rings, pacifiers, diapers, andl unlimited funds.@Max shulman, 1956 WPhen Baby I lads asleep -te little angel! - why not relax and give yourself a treat?
