Truman Refuses
To Give Comment
On Feminine Fad
WASHINGTON, Oct. 9-( P)-
Questions about the Truman-for-
President lapel buttons noted here
yesterday brought laughter and
negative responses today from the
President.
Asked at a news conference
whether he approved the buttons,
first noticed on guests at a Demo-
cratic Women's Day rally, Mr.
Truman said he had not seen
them.
But he added with a grin, he
had seen pictures of the buttons
in a newspaper today, including
some fashioned into ear rings.
Mr. Truman said he did not
think it was within his province
to disapprove anybody's wearing
apparel.
That naturally brought on a
question about long skirts. And
the President said he didn't think
it necessary to take a position on
that.
Casbah Band
To Entertain
In Ballroom
Fran Wine-Gar and his 12-
piece band will again entertain
Casbah guests with his own
"Pipes of Fran" style from 9 p.m.
to midnight today and tomorrow
in the League Ballroom.
Wine-Gar will continue his
newly-initiated system of receiv-
ing requests for favorite tunes and
announcements of special occa-
sions among the guests. "Requests
were so numerou " admitted Jim
Donelson, orche ra manager,
"that we have made arrangements
to distribute cards among the
crowd. Nola, our vocalist; accepts
the requests and tunes are played
in the order they are received."
Donelson asserted further that
band leaders are more than
pleased to receive requests, since it
gives them an indication of what
their listeners like to hear. Last
weekend "Near You" and "I Wish
I Didn't Love You So" led the Cas-
bah "hit parade."
The entire second floor of the
Lgague will be open to Casbah pa-
trons this week. Cokes will be
