Leading 1949 Fads
Are Square Dancing,
Canasta, Short Hair
Los Angeles (U.R) Such sub
jects as black beauty patches,
miniature golf and "knock
knock" jokes are a serious study
for Dr. Emory S. Bogardus, pro
fessor of sociology at the Uni
versity of Southern California.
He has kept a record 01 laas
since 1914 by having his classes
list outstanding whims twice
each year.
"Fads that prove popular re
main," Dr. Bogardus says. Such
are men's wrist watches, dating
from 1916, and auto windshield
stickers, first used in 1924.
Other fads, like tortoise-rim
glasses and long fingernails on
women, disappear only to return
later.
Students Pick Leaders
Seven leading fads for 1949
were picked by students in this
order:
Square dancing, canasta, short
bobs for women, pyramid clubs,
dixieland music, ropes of pearls,
and portholes for cars.
Farther down the 30-ltem list
are telephones for autos, blue
hair, French bathing suits and
name writing on neckties.
Recent fads that came to stay
are television sets of two years
ago, laundromats and home per-
1 manent waves.
Thcv are "useful fads that
rnntrihute to social progress
according tq Dr. Bogardus. He
adds that "bebop music and crew
haircuts will soon De lorgoiien,
at least by this generation."
Most Fads Die
Class surveys show that 80 per
cent of all fads last less than one
year. But candid cameras, zip
pers and bobbed hair are among
the rare survivors
Styles are commcrically pro
moted fads to create demand,
Dr. Bogardus says. Fashions also
provide "the most spectacular
examples of fads and their adop
tion by many."
Some fads that have carved
permanent niches for themselves
are Eskimo pics from 1922, cross
word puzzles of 1924. smoking
by women since 1926, the drive-
in theater and midget auto rac
ing from 1934, and two-toned
horns for autos dating from the
same year.
