4 The Statesman, Sclenv Oregon, Sunday, October 23, 1831 h outer i es in Fall Line ! Shirts are undergoing a change which carries the eye along the line of the body. The collars have gtown much shorter. In fact, the mHnrt mllar Is the "only" collar for F si 'rt manufactures and men's wear stores will tell yotu The lorur-Dointed collar is virtu ally nowhere to be seen, they saj, The main new collar styles are the sharp-point in a fairly wide spread and round-pointed collars. One of the best new collars for Fall is cut to the. angles on the inside and outside of the point are almost equal. It has a flaring di minished look that makes people Variety of note the longer line of the body .ejhe longer line'of the tie, newly slim, .nd the longer line of the Jacket. - Most of the round-pointed col lars require a pin which saay be Inserted through small - circular holes on the button side of the tab. Others call for a clip to draw jjhe collar together. In this same 'class is the British tab collar on which the points are very short but pointed, requiring a pin to hold the tabs' tightly against the neck; under the tie. ; There are also shirte withr this collar which r have tabs with but tonholes which fasten it close to . : The practical button-down shirt will be seen in a great many strip as as well as in white oxford cloth. broadcloth and pima. : Predictions are that solid-col red shirts with striped collars and tuffs will find some acceptance for Fall. This departure in shirt design will help to add color and line to what is all too frequently Considered an item of little im portance in men's wardrobes.; aIM CaIan PAnnlar - - f r v Despite this' trend, plain-colored shirts highlighted by texture ef fects are increasing in popularity. 'And solid colored shirts, ranging from , pastels to dark, rich-hued shades, will be the subject of con tinuing Interest. Stripes in neat and striking ef Xects will add a smart look to many men's wardrobes. Not to be forgotten, too, are checks and plaid patterns highly regarded by many men. The continuing emphasis on col red and patterned i shirt fabrics for day-to-day business wear will, from all indications, win many men from the vast ranks of those ; who will wear nothing but white shirts on the job.' . j It's Still a Man's World in Politics The political season finds It still pretty much a man's world. , On the ballot as made up for Harion County only two women's tames appear.

Feature Tattersall vests have turned to more vivid coloring for FalL In the several years since the reviv al of this favorite of the mando lin . days, its colors have swung from the traditional cream back ground in favor of brighter col ors. Futhermore, popularity of this reminder of the days of sleigh rides and Sunday afternoon strolls has led to a revival of the lapel vest, complete to shiny brass but- The wheel of time turned full circle when the tattersall came back and this descendant of grand' father's fancy waistcoat started as limited collegiate fashion, then went on to become a popular lav onte. The revived checked waistcoat first left the campus a year or so ago for the country clubs and cos mopolitan resorts. Then it moved to the metropolis, spread- in favor. and was seen in the smaller cities and towns. It, became completely urbanized and now knows no class. Now the style is renewed in variety of fresh stylings and live ly patterns. - This renewal takes another turn in use of colors. Traditionally the tattersall has a cream background with overplaid stripes . of one color horizontally crossed by stripes of another color vertically. Now the stylists have chosen dark color backgrounds as well. Clear reds and dark blues are frequent choices and some medium green and black backgrounds are seen. Brass buttons are a natural choice for vests in which these colors are used. , Men find the fancy vest perfect for wear on any occasion for which an added dash of color In attire is in order. To be well dressed, wear the right clothes at the right time. . r ' , y r 5 WJ'.fi ik -1 i toaawv. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.1Km-'Vmtmm ..rax wirmmop Shoes ' Open Friday Night ra 9 p. m. goe; N nwoasfw S A FOR RAINY DATS this four-but ton raglan sleeve eoat with bal maeaan collar fills the bill per fectly.

( Wild spiralling: designs have been replaced . with smaller ele gant patterns with a clean, sharp look about them, or the patterns travel in a sharply denned ver tical line, again to add to a slim up-and-down feeling.

White backgrounds will appear in Fall neckwear, i providing a new dramatic emphasis to dark Fall suits. Gray bids well to be the top-favored background color for FalL The new coloring of all Fall neckwear .is in clear but soft shades such as copper, silver- gray, mahogany, soft scarlet, olive green. They are the perfect com plement to the pew soft tweeds and flannels that are such big style news in men's clothing. The reverse knot is the answer for slick fabric four-in-hand ties which tend to slip. Place the. tie on the neck with the seam out, rather than next to the body.

The knot causes the seami side to turn un der as it should J and your tie will stay in place. , . poise. The natural look arises almost entirely from the practice of cut ting the suit on the basis ol a natural shoulder. In contrast to the suits which were in favor for several seasons, the natural look suits rely on a small amount ol shoulder padding only enough to assure the proper fall of the coat across the chest. Coats have a longer line from shoulder seam to bottom. This has the effect of adding height to the wearer. This la best seen when ie of this Fall's suit coats is compared ' with one of the two button, lounge models of last year which gave a boxy look through the torso. There are I other style notes which characterize the natural look. These Include heavy favor shown to the single-breasted or center closing line of the jacket. usinc three- or four-button clos ings. The two-button closing had been favored: both in the more loosely draped double-breasted suits and the two-button single- hracfp1 lnnnro mnriel unit of the past several seasons. It is indicated that the three- button closing will be most im portant in this Fall's new look clothing, but advance reports show that the four-button jacket will enjoy some favor on this Fall's college campus scene. Reliance on the centered, single-breasted jacket line 'has led many fashion authorities to term this Fall's styling a revival of the Edwardian Look.
