The sweater, the height of

high fashion
Requirements for proper University
dressing are minimal. Fashion, implicitly, is
a high-risk investment, even on campus.
Trends come and go, skirts rise and fall, and
some of the best dressed co-eds have trou
ble staying abreast of the demands of each
season's New Look.
Still, there are several mandatory items
that even the dowdiest of students can't get
by without. They include: blue jeans, a pair
of running shoes and a sweater.
The first two, minus the label, are utterly
without distinction. The third — the sweater
— has taken on new proportions this Fall
and is full of panache.
True, the sweater never left campus, but
this season the indispensable collegiate
item appears to be here — in style. If you've
got one, it's not enough. And, if it's a sweat
shirt, most specifically of the green and
yellow variety, it's passe unless ripped at
the shoulder and ragged at the neck.
The sweater, fortunately, is a versatile and
practical piece of clothing. It can go over
shirts, under them, over more sweaters,
under nothing.

And this Fall, it's around in every texture,
pattern, weight and knit—including:
•The argyle.
•The sweatervest.
•The cableknit Shetland pullover.
•The "evening" sweater sparkling with
pearls, beads, seeds and lurex.
•The iong, narrow cardigan in muted
angora, heathers and weaves.
Some of the best selections in the Univer
sity area are in stock at The Attic Dresser,
Caprice at the Fifth Street Market, the Cloak
Room, Meier and Frank, and, of course,
Kaufman's — the home of the $20 Shetland
pullover.
If you have to choose one sweater to pur
chase this Fall, don't. Consider two or
three, and live with one pair of running
shoes inslead. An(,e|a AHen Morgan
