The following is a zoological
survey of some of the younger animal
life at USC. Most of these creatures
are harmless, but should not
be disturbed in their natural
environment.
Dorm Rat:Freshman who never
leaves the security of the dorm.
Addicted to MTV in the lobby,
pale skin from too much fluorescent
lighting and Nintendo games.
They keep Domino's and Wings
on Wheels in business. Uncertain
if the Dorm Rat ever sleeps because
it is always in the lobby or
) at the snack machines.
Freshman SlobiThis creature is
straight out of parochial school and
never wants to feel anything but
sweats on its body again. Rarely
spotted in the dorm showers, the
Slob can often be detected from
great distances. Eats only USC's
greasiest cuisine; allergic to
nutrition.

Dick Tracy's bt
makes street st
?
By The Associated Press
When Warren Beatty showed up
time and again for Dick Tracy
press interviews wearing a gray
double-breasted suit and black Tshirt,
style watchers took note.
T-shirts have become bona fide
men's fashion.
Sure, they started in the street as
walking advertisements, vacation
souvenirs, personal statements.
One of the hottest right now is a
bootleg Bart Simpson tee ? with
a black Bart But we're talking upscale,
as in Warren Beatty chic.
T-shirts represent a $2.6 billion
annual market in America, and the
average retail consumer buys 6.6
per year, according to a recent
survey by the Nike shoe people.
They should know. They do the
"Bo Don't Know" shirts.
"Beatty wasn't the first one to
wear the look," says Larry Hotz,
"but he certainly might be the catalyst
to induce a lot more people
to pick up on it." Hotz, a spokesman
for the Men's Fashion Association
in New York, says the trend
started in big cities like Los
Angeles and New York where
fashion non-conformity is more
prevalent. But there are differing
opinions of just how it started.
Robert Bryan, fashion editor of
M Inc. magazine, says ttot "while
nobody likes to think it came from
'Miami Vice,' the show certainly
did popularize it" The difference,
he says, is that now men are wearing
softer colors in the same range,
rather than contrasting colors.
Kimberly Cihlar, fashion editor
of Daily News Record, a trade
newspaper covering men's fashion,
says part of the credit has to go to
The Gap.
"The Gap showed us that you
could take an ordinary Hanes-type
T-shirt, combine it with a sportcoat,
and you're pretty much
j i ?J n:Li? ?? */ 1A
urcsseu, says v_iniar. iuu i;uuiu
almost wear it to the office. Come
to think of it, people who have
some leeway on the job do it."
With all the variations on the Tshirt
theme, there's much more
than Hanes and The Gap out there.
T-shirts are coming from the drawing
boards of well-established
designers.
For those who seek a quick, ingflMOTI

expensive style update, Cotler has
a T-shirt at about $13 with laige '
embroidered crest in olive, mustard,
burgundy and gray. Rough
Hewn. Dricier at about $48, offers
a washed pique with a yacht club
insignia in hunter, teal, dark red
and purple.
For upper-end customers, there's
Giorgio Armani, who counts Tshirts
as a major part of his collection.
For next summer he has cotton,
cotton-linen and silk-linen
blends, ranging from $100 to $300.
They're ideal with an Armani
slouch suit.
For cooler days ahead, look for
Armani's long sleeve woolen polos.
They range from $250 for a
woven knit to $700 for cashmere.
Likewise, you can keep warm
with a dark wool polo shirt from
Studio 000.1 by Ferre, $270.
Another cold-weather option
comes from designer Tommy Hilfiger,
who offers a long sleeve
crewneck T-shirt in heavy cotton
jersey. It comes in eight colors for
around $39.50.
Axis is introducing all-cotton Tshirts
with 1940s photos of athletes
screened onto them. The photos
were culled from the Library of
Congress. Available next February
in stylish shades of kiwi, spice, lapis,
gold, terra cotta and storm
gray, as well as black and white,
they'll retail for about $24-$28.

Axis, says the tees can be worn
equally well with jeans, jacket or
sack suit. "That's our generation's
alternative to structured clothing,"
he says.
Designers are also coming up
with T-shirts reflecting concern for
the environment, an important '
theme this season.
The Falke Group has the Eco-T.
Designed by graphic artist Eileen >
Toohey, the all-cotton tees in ,
bright colors will be available
Sept. 22 at about $25. In one, Albert
Einstein stands atop the world
and says, "You don't have to be a
genius to figure it out ... pollution
pollutes." J
Joe Boxer, an American mens- *
wear designer, has a cotton T-shirt
with the slogan, "If this T-shirt
was a rain forest, its gonna be a
tank top in no time." About $18.
