show colorful . nubs. These
bring the Nubby Touch to the
tweeds for town and for su
burban wear.
The tweeds are not only
light weight but also light in
tones. The plain weaves of
woolens comprise combinations
of two shades such as brown
and tan, which result in light
brown. Against this appear
nubs in soft blue, Ted and
green, Similarly blue and
light grey threads are woven
into the basic soft woolen fa
bric and set of rubs of blue or
maroon. .Llght'grcy, the blend
of two shades of grey, takes on
a brighter cast when decorated
with gaily colored nubs. -Tweeds
Have Sarde Interest

weight tweeds has a charm
that, appeals to many subur
banites as well as those who
live in the city. .There is a
semi-sports character to tweeds
that is expressive of a casual
manner, in modern-day living.
The fuzzy surface spells ease
and comfort in the minds of
many men. -, Now that these
tweeds are available In light
weights, the fear of discomfort
on very mild days Is dispelled.
These fabrics in some cases are
all-wool. Many are In blends
of man-made fibers such as
Orion or Dacron with wool,

shirt collars is toward smaller
proportions to conform to the
lessened width of lapels and

ate wearers of , button down
collars. They are mainly
among the undergraduates at
universities and the alumni
from the east to the west
coasts. Some of the newest
button down collars show
shorter points. ,
Solid Colors Dominate
The preference for solid
colors in spring shirts Is defi
nitely apparent.
Pale shades of blue, grey,
tan and soft green account for
widespread popularity Fine
stripes, especially the close
set hairline type, appeal to
men who like variety in their
apparel. ' Pin checks .are in
the same category. In the- fab
ric for shirts, the fine broad
cloth - leads over all others.
Oxford rates strongly with
button down and pinned
rounded collars. Dacron is
making forward strides.
The custom of wearing jew
elry in novel designs is caus
ing more attention to be
drawn to shirts with French
cuffs. So many of the Ideas
in jewelry and the desire for
the well-turned appearance at
the wrists is giving shirts
with double-cuffs the green
light. .
Thin Fabrics for Summer
The male consciousness of
lightweight apparel will cause
a seasonal shift in shirts to
ward those in open weave
fabrics. As soon as warm
weather arrives, men will
switch to thin shirts of batiste
madras, lenos and dropstitch
fabrics. All these are cool in
aDDearAnca and mnr, com
fortable than the close-weave
fabrics.
These come for the most
part, in white, blue, tan,
grey, yellow and green Open
weaves are being done In
man-made fibers, which have
a sleek cool surface.
Short-Sleeve Shirts
Looking ahead a few months,
it Is possible to detect anoth
er change in hot-weather
shirts. Many men learned by
experience that short-sleeve
shirts are aids to summer com
fort. These have elbow-length
sleeves and one or two chest
Pockets for pencils, pens and
Papers or cigarettes. They
also are atralght cut at the
bottom and double as sports
shirts when they are worn)
utside the trousers. Collars1
on these shirts are of the low
ironi variety.

their: shirt wardrobes, some
thought is given to th
and types of shirts, with what
iney are worn.: The prevalence
oi grey suits is causing an in
creased popularity for grey

thought is invariaoiy given to
the types of clothes that are
easy on -the swing and, hay a
touch of color. . Shirts . are
chosen with adequate roomi
ness in mind. Knitted cotton,
man-made fiber fabrics and
wool jersey, all qualify be
cause they have give. ., Woven
fabric shirts are also in the
running when they have full
cut sleeves and a pleated or
widely cut back. Cottons in
plain and even weaves have
their proponents, the tatter
best for very warm days. Tan,
light blue, navy, yellow, rust,
orown, maroon and green, aii
are in the golfwear spectrum.
Flannel, gabardine and .light
weight fabrics rate best for
slack ta tan, brown, bluish
grey, grey or blue. These are
always widely cut for free ac
tion. Some type of head-piece
such as a lightweight cap,
bucket snap cloth, hat, venti

the eyas and protects the head
smartly. Pullover sweaters of
