e displayed a hooded Eskimo-
parka with a 100 per cent
pile lining to illustrate the
r jacket. Another hip-length

while a darker one featured a
large raccoon collar.
Variety of Jackets
In the waist-length jackets, Miss
Geddes showed a selection featur-
ing a variety of material and
styles.
Some had sweater-like collars,
while other had collars that could
be converted into hoods. The "bear
hug," or fleecy type nylon has been
especially popular this year, the
trim brunette pointed out.
"Ski pants will have the ordi-
nary elasticized rubber waist,
tapered legs, and zippers on the
sides near the bottom of the
legs," Miss Geddes said.
More popular than the sports-
wear will be winter lounging wear,
she predicted.
This includes slacks which will
probably not be worn for skiing,
but in lodges after the sports fun
is over, she explained. Basic plaids

continue their popularity in
"lounging" slacks, but "antique"
browns and greens are coming into
their own, Miss Geddes averred.
And each pair of slacks can be
part of a "well-planned" coordi-
nate outfit, she said. For example.
there are matching slacks for fur-
blend and cashmere sweaters.
Heavy Cashmeres
"Heavy, bulky cashmeres are
selling more than usual," Miss
Geddes revealed. "They can even
be worn on skiing jaunts.",
The vest-type sweaters, formerly
worn only in the spring or early
fall, are selling well, she reported,
and crewnecks are just as popular
as ever,
"The girls are going for a few
hooded sweaters, but not many,"
she added.
Miss Geddes' favorite outfit,
which emphasizes the "bold but.
beautful" in styling, is a four-
piece,' flower- designed, muted
toned group of coordinates, which
includes a vest, jacket, slim slacks,
and a skirt.
"It's just dreamy," she con-
cluded.

Stves Vary
For Shoes
Casual and dressy shoes come
in a complete line of fall colors,
fabrics, and styles. Buckles, bows
and dainty T-straps mark the'
prettiest shoes for day time or
date time.
Shoe locomotion bound for
school is available in a whole
carload of colors, styles and fab-
rics to click with everything.
Saddles. loafers, and sneakers still
rate best for the gals. on the go.
Soft leathers with polished brass,
squash-heels, demi-boots, and the
smooth ties are styles that go
everywhere with everything in
anyone's wardrobe.
For warmth and -protection from
the chilly weather, girls snuggle
down to their toes in .smashing:
boots. They come in corduroy,
suede, or various 'leathers with
nylon fleece, and orlon pile linings.
Plain pumps, mostly in the dark
and neutral colors, serve as the
basis of every girl's shoe wardrobe.
Heelswith ric-rac rimming, lacing,
or buckles are quaint reminders
of the shoes of the 1920's. They
come in colors and leathers that
would do any costume justice.

Glove and scarf sets which come
in an endless variety of colors
and fabrics are a must in every
college girl's wardrobe.
They are available in brushed
orlon, nylon, mohair, and wool.
Fur-lined and fur gloves, as well
as the leather-palmed gloves are
an important asset.
Plaid, striped, and plain woolen
scarves in the brightest colors keep
many a girl's head warm at a
football game or on the way to
classes. The latest is a convertible
wool hood which unbuttons to
become a scarf.
Long-handled. umbrellas, prefer-
ably in solid colors, add sleekness
to any costume.
Colorful tights and knee socks
in eye-catching styles, patterns
and colors complement sweaters to
complete many costumes and make
sport outfits look smarter.
Nylon stockings in the various
shades are worn usually with eve-,
ning and dressy outfits. They come
in all shades of the fall's most
fascinating fashion colors.
Hats are not frequently seen on
campus. When worn, they take the
form of berets, and the newest are
a take off on the men's derby. The
simple, but attractive headband
and decorated veil is much more
common.
Button-down collars on dickies,
which give the appearance of a
blouse, add a freshness under
many sweaters.

BRIGHT SKI TRAILS-Half the fun of skiing, it appears, is in choosing the outfit; for this year the
trend in women's ski clothes is "bright but beautiful." Skiers will make a striking picture as they
glide down white slopes in red, muted green, 'champagne', or carmel ski suits. Also being shown this
year are after-ski outfits of furblend or cashmere sweaters with matching slacks.

FORMALS are fun-

the guys in their tuxedos.
