't Many of the skirts and blouses can be bought separately but have been carefully color-matched kto appear as a dress when worn to- gether. * * A BOON to the coed's ironing problem work are the new gypsy skirts observed in a local store. They are gaily-printed full skirts made with two rows of gathering, :guaranteed to eliminate ironing. A greater variety of colors is now available in sailcloth play- clothes. Once considered strict- ly a working costume, the new sailcloth separates have been Special Overcoats Even chickens and turkeys are wearing overcoats these days, spe- cial plastic overcoats which are used for roasting fowl. The birds r are cleaned, stuffed, wrapped in cryovac plastic overcoat, sealed 'skin-tight, and frozen, all ready for popping into the oven. When cooking, no basting is necessary. The overcoat should be removed an hour before the bird is done in order to brown the skin. use' Combinations Continue Reign c I , "It happens every SPRING dressed up with such novel twists as the Eisenhower-jacket style and huge mother-of-pearl buttons scattered about gener- oursly. The sailcloth is available in bright hues of green, blue, brown, orange, and yellow. Denim, too, has been dressed up, almost beyond recognition. A full white denim evening skirt, decorated, with three huge wild fishes, reminiscent of the popular felt skirts, and scoop-necked pas- tel denim evening blouses can be purchased on campus.* ' SPRING versions of the colle- giate shirt blouses are being shown in short sleeves with the man- tailoring. They are made in all sorts of striped, polka-dotted and "wierd-looking" printed materials. Tight-legged toreador pants and pedal-pushers are more "fierce" than ever in bold striped or wild- animal printed cotton. Shorts, too, are gradually following suit along the bolder lines. Typical of the new shorts are those with dark backgrounds and brightly colored animal prints. The shorts will continue to be "very short" this year. Contrasting the "fierce" look are the fluffy "little-girl" nylon blouses. Many cotton blouses, in white and pastels, arecalso gener- ously supplied with lace and ruf- fles. The one-piece bloomer playsuit with the matching skirt is makirg a reappearance this spring, follow- ing the "little-girl" trend. Many of them are also sold with match- ing caps, overblouses, and jack- ets. Shorter Sleeve Length, New Clever Cut Highlight Changes in Spring Coat Styles By MARGARET STUTSMAN The loose coat has made a num- ber one place on the hit parade again this spring but is styled with freshness, taking shape through a clever cut that results in a fash- ionable compromise between the extreme fullness of the past and the more recent "string bean" line. Biggest fashion news of all is the shorter sleeve smartly cut at the elbow or a little below. One of the most exciting coat categories for spring is a family of shorties. These chic, practical numbers come in a variety of lengthg including the seven- eighths coat, the three-quarters coat and several cropped versions like the Spencer jacket with em- pire lines that stop short at the waist. Semi-fitted, domed or flar- ed, they are "news" in luxury fab- rics. The glamour coat with attach- able jewel or mink collars makes a dressy coat and a daytime cardi- gan coat-all in one. Pretty colors, fabrics and detail- I I a ing are as much a part of the new softness and femininity as are the silhouettes of these spring coats. The dropped shoulder line helps to put the accent at the top through seaming, yokes and arched cuts. Seaming is deftly handled to accent the rounded look and often defines the important empire line. The fabrics are soft and pliable. Blends are used in great profusion and have never been so stylish. Silks combined with worsteds, al- pacas, tweeds, cashmere mixes and wools softened by fur fibers are all among the textures that are now available. Rich colors flash across the fash- ion picture, too. Navy and beiges are popular as well as shades rang- ing from pink to red such as cameo, sparkling geranium.
