Campus rainwear, as all Umn-
versity fashion, varies from ex-
teminant of drss is practiaity.
The classic outfit for damp
weather includes the long black
umbrella with slender handle and
pointed tip and the green rub-
ber poncho. These coats are both
water repellent and inexpensive.
Parka Length
They come in nearly every col-
or and in a parka length for men.
Hoods are attached and remove
the need for any form of head
covering. These raincoats may be
bought anywhere from the dime-
store to some of the more sophisti-
cated clothi-ng stores. .
Those who do not wish to con-
form to such a degree wear trnc
field styles. Plaids and solid blacks
and whites appear to be most
popular i-n such fabrics as den-
im, madras, cotton, and corduroy.
Slickers and Boots
Some of the more chic may
wear oilcloth or plastic slickers
with hat or high boots to match.
Opposi-ng this is the little-girl look
of the sailor trench coat.
Common accessories include tri-
angle scarves or rain hats, black
leather gloves, -and the usual dur-
able loafers or flats.

Ties Reflect
Men's Styles
In Clothing
Necktie styles are really only
a reflection of changes in men's
clothing in general. As more and
more men turn to lighter colored
suits, interest increases in lighter
ties.
Ten years ago ties looked just
about the same as they do now-
brightly colored and about 2%M
inches wide. Then, widths decreas-
ed to 1%/ or 1%/ inches, with col-
ors becoming highly iridescent
and muted. Now necktie styles are
back where they started 10 years
Some predict that exactly the
same cycle will repeat itself dur-
ing the coming decade. Colors will
once again be highly muted - the
effect that is obtained when a
brightly colored tie is turned in-
side out (try it).
In the immediate f u t u r e,
though, ties may become even a
little wider than they are now.
This could come as a result of
influence from the East Coast,
where the trend is already pres-
