P.T.A. Activities
Brunettes Are Fashionable
Though Blondes Preferred
By Betty Clarke
AP Feature Service Writer i
Blondes platinum or otherwise
are out of date.
Raven-haired beauties are holding
the spotlight now.
Society glamour girls, women famed
internationally for their beauty and
charm, and fa&hion-cettlng movie
actresses. Look them all over and
you'll find the pace-setters are bru
nettes. "Ebony blue", la the nam given
to the dusky new tresses by the
International Master Ladles Hair
dressers association. Hollywood has
given momentum to the back-to-brunette
movement.
"Perhaps It all started with Hedy
Lamarr's appearance in "Algiers "
saya Max Factor, Jr., Hollywood
make-up specialist. "But the fact
remains that Joan Bennett and other
famous stars are - forsaking their
blonde tresses in favor of the new
brunette trend. Zf glamour history
repeats itself and It usually doe
as the stars go so go th women of
the world."
Earl Carroll, famous beauty con
noisseur and showman, feels strongly
on the subject. . When authorities
chose Marilyn Meseke, blonde .Ohio
contestant as Miss America for 1938,
Carroll objected. He insisted the title
should have gone to Miss California
Claire James a brunette.

of the visit of the national staff
member. Miss Oledo Schrotky. The

our privilege to entertain these rep
