By MARYLIN KLAFER Many's the modern bespectacled woman who would take issue with Dorothy Parker's famous words toI the effect that "men seldom make passes at girls who wear glasses." Years back women who had imperfect eyesight were faced with quite a problem. Either they chose to see, peering out at the world through heavy, unattractive spec- tacles and fulfilling Miss Parker's prophecy, or they rebelled and risked an endless unseen, oncom- ing hazards, including speeding vehicles and insulted friends. *. * * TIMES AND spectacles have changed. Nowadays manufactur- ers of eyeglasses for the fair sex have gone all out to produce frames which will not only be comfortable to wear, but will be as pretty and flattering as any fash- ion accessory. It is no longer uncommon for women with perfectly normal vision to make frequent visits to their eyedoctors in the vain prospect of legally receiving a prescription some day. Impa- tient souls often dispense with the costly visits andinvest in frames of their choice which they have filled with window glass. One large eyeglass firm now spe- cializes in glasses 'with "cosmetic design." The styling of the frames Villagers Slate Hallowe'en Party Willow Village Wives' Club will hold the first in a series of month- ly mixers from 8 to 11:30 p.m. Sat- urday. Although the party will center on a Halloween theme, costumes are optional. Dancing, bridge and other games will be featured. The public is invited to the event which will be free of charge. is made to point up a woman's lovelier features and minimize those which are not as lovely. In other words, the glasses are sup- posed to "do for your nose what lipstick does for your lips." MANY NEW AND unusual ma- terials are being used in the con- structicn and adornment of the most recent frame styles. Still, the old standbys, horn rims, are as prevalent as ever for school and every day wear practically having replaced the once-common neu- tral and flesh-colored plastic rims. Gay plaids and checked frames are becoming more popu- lar for the classroom. They pro- vide a bright accent for sweater and skirt combinations and a wise investment for those who can afford one pair of "imprac- tical" glasses. Many kinds of metals are being featured widely in current frame designs. A new feather-light metal has been introduced which makes glasses a light load for the tiniest of noses. Frames in the metal col- lections offer durability and are found in muted pastel and russet shades. Some of the frames have a trim, gold or silver, on the nose bridge and the temples (earpieces). Others are untrimmed. PLAIN GOLD and silver rims are back, but in styles far more appealing than those of grandma's day. Some opticians are featuring glass styles which do hark back to the old days, though, but they may be worn to advantage by very few women. Flawless features and just the right hairdo are absolute prerequisites for those who intend to select such conversation pieces to correct their faulty vision. Clear lucite frames containing a surprising variety of bright, colorful inserts are now on the market. The glasses are partial- ly hand done since the strands of material or metal are inserted by hand throughout the frame. Lace, gold, silver and straw are only a few of the ornamenta- mm tions being used. These frames are particularly smart for dress wear. Wearing glasses is no longer considered detrimental to a wom- an's looks now that manufacturers create eye wear which is not only therapeutic, but cosmetic in de- sign. Current thought regarding glasses is aptly phrased in a prom- inent eyeglass firm's advice to its patrons, "You look through your glasses; the rest of the world looks at them." Bridge Tourney The Union bridge tournament will be held at 7:30 p.m. today in the Terrace Room of the Union. A regular game will be played. IZFA Plans Open Meeting The Intercollegiate Zionist Fed- eration of America (IZFA) will hold its second meeting of the se- mester at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow at the Hillel Foundation. The organization has extended an invitation to the general public as well as to members. The pro- gram will be centered about pres- ent day life in Israel. The evening will start with the singing of Hebrew songs which will be followed by a report by Al Schuman on pertinent news items from Israel. Special attraction of the evening will be the showing of the film "Homecoming 1949." The movie will present an up-to-date survey of the national and international problems which Israel is facing with emphasis on the recent elec- tions, immigration and housing. -S A W a0Lo6on~s. soa JacokAonL A Li t (; rsonis i n "k f ash+n;b ;e foot cover:age, srj ug - S . ... 4""::::::;2':;;; :''?"?".
