Prof. John H. Muyskens, director
of the laboratory of speech and gen-

By JENNY PETERSEN
January's first few days of un-
seasonable winter weather and sun-
shine have detoured thoughts from
woolly socks and heavy coats to
lighter clothes. Of course there may
be a severe cold wave within the
next week, but while the weather is
mild and sunshiny it is pleasant to
speculate idly about summer clothes
for 1937.
Dresses and accessories for the
South, shown in shop windows and
in current magazines, forecast what
will be popular for summer wear. In-
dications of the peasant influence in
cruise clothes hint that it will be
important this 'summer. Cheerful
wool embrodiery, bright fantastic
colors, little jackets, kerchiefs, full
gathered skirts-all these are con-
incQnwtoiea clothes.

Paisley Prints Good
Paisley prints and violent stripes
figure in the southerners fashion
picture. Stripes usually appear every
summer on formals with candy cane
or barber pole effects, but the paisley
is new. It may even appear in spring
clothes. Not only is it used in wash-
able dresses, but also in scarfs and
hat bands.
A new woolen fabric that is perfect
for southern travel is a porous ma-
terial which will not wrinkle or sag.
Many houses have made it up in
tennis and golf ensembles which can
be saved for the summed months. Al-
though it is wool it is as light and
cool as linen.

Look Up 'Drindl'
"Dirndl" is a word that should be
added to your fashion vocabulary, for
it is a type of dress that will prob-
ably be a headliner for summer. It
is distinguished by an extremely full
skirt and tight-fitting waist, some-
times topped by a little jacket. It
is equally attractive as a daytime and
evening dress. One dirndl, designed
for dancing on a Havana-bound ship,
features a black skin-tight bodice and
a gathered, spiashy-flowered skirt.
There are short, puffed sleeves in
the jacket.
An amusing fad which may die
out before summer is a flat, shape-
less shoe of suede or cotton worn
with beach clothes. This suede model
has not the slightest evidence of a
heel and no trimming, but a tie on
