New Planes Put On Night Run In Northwest Area Pacific coast cities have been giv en another Improvement In the air transport facilities connecting them, when U -passenger transport planes were placed on the coastwise night schedule of United Air Lines, sup plcmentlng the same type of service already being given on the daylight schedule. Coming of the Ford trimotored planes to the night runs spells hon orable retirement for the fleet of single -englned, four -passenger and! mall planes which have been oper ating up and down the, coast for years. Some of these have recorded a total of almost 5000 hours in the air, or approximately 675,000 miles of flying. The new equipment for the night schedule means a similar deluxe ser-J vit-e aa operaiea on me aay- Hgtit schedule and an Increase in speeds. Substantial Increases In the volume of passengers, mail and ex press handled along the Pacific coast aro expected to result. Under the revised schedules it Is possible to leave Seattle at 6:45 p. m Tacoma at 7:10 p. m. and Portland at 8:30 p. m. and be In San Diego by 6:50 the next morning. North bound, the plane leaving San Diego at 8:15 p, m. arrives In Portland at 8:45 a. m., Tacoma at 10:10 a. m.. and Seattle at 10:30 a. m. Thus, the entire length of the Pacific coast may be flown overnight and without loss of business hours.

WHAT THE WELL DRESSED MAN WILL WEAR Duncan Paige Describes the New Style Tread Looking forward a few months Into the mirror of fashion, the care ful dresser will note many unusual and desirable changes In the design of men's clothing. The new drape styles, created for the comfort of the man who le taking si Shoulders ere natural, but wide his work and recreation strenuously In these changing tunes, are a dis tinct departure from more closely fitting suits and overcoats seen in recent years. To begin with, the so-called "lounge construction" that Is des tined to make the newer styles tre mendously popular, has f ullness in exactly the right places to insure maximum comfort and yet Is molded to fit the figure and emphasize the curves and angles which make for distinction In the science of tailoring. No matter how busy you may be, the soft, easy drape of these new styles will give you a look of leisure. Shoulder padding, which would be out of place In thosa &e drape cuula, has been practically eliminated, une shoulder lines are natural and deep folds appear In the front of the coat. These features have been some what emphasized In suits of lounge construction by a new type of collar which sets farther away from the side of the neck and Is. therefore, less upright and noticeably flatter. This Is Illustrated In the figure above, as Is also the high notched lapel, which serves to strengthen the note of fullness across the chest and the natural shoulder lines. The coat Is sharply depressed at the waist and has but two buttons, only the top one of which Is used. Combined, these new features make the wearer look broader In the shoulders and narrower In the waist. An entirely new note Is offered In pocket design. Special hand stitch ing Is used on patch pockets to give the coat a distinctive appearance combined with a more informal touch, as Illustrated below. This stitching, which Is called "Franklin," is placed of an Inch In from the edge of the coat and vest as well. A French word, "jetted," has been adopted to describe another unusu ally stylish type of pocket to be found on the newer coats. It has no flap, but the two edges are piped to give the-opening a smooth, even line. Vests, this year are tailored to combine comfortably and stylishly with the drape coat and the new high rise trousers, which are given a decided fullness by the addition of two pleats on each leg. While the m T I "a Patch pockets with Franklin Hitching vest has six buttons, the lower one Is designed to be left unfastened. The preferred fabrics will be wor steds, both finished and unfinished, and Saxonies. Popular colors, among the more discerning dressers, will be brown, grey and blue grey.
