TWO MEDFORD (OHEOON) MAIL TRIBUNE, Monday, April 3. 1930 cnww Hats Will Be Popular, According to Designer By Barbara Bundichu U. P. Faihion Writer New York, Apr. 3 (U.R) Women are going to have to wear their hats this summer to keep them from "feeling naked all over." That's the prediction of Fred Fredericks, who dreams up the hats that carry the well-known John-Fredericks, Inc., label. The way this s u m m e r'i clothes are built, he pointed out, "psychologically, a woman is going to leel undressed." "The dresses are sheer," he aid. "They haven't any sleeves. The skirts are short. The neck lines are plunging, or low. "But a woman doesn't like to look naked all over. "So, unconsciously, she will reach for a hat." And the short and sleeveless chiffon shift won't seem naked any more." For the really shy girls, Fred ericks is making some of those hats so broad they'll take the place of an umbrella, too. Stiff or floppy natural Leg horns trimmed with orange rib bons, sheer and mysterious black horsehair and lush velvet are built to hang three inches over the shoulders In some cases. More daring damsels can set tle for hats as their dresses platinum blonde horsehair, for Instance, done up like spun sug ar candy, or lightweight straw overlaid with ferns under veil ing. There aren't so many flowers on the hats as sometimes, Fred ericks said, because there art going to be so many flowers cov ering up the bare spaces some where else. There'll ba flowers on belts, on the wrists, in buttonholes, al most every p 1 c e," he said. "They are very flattering with the deeper necklines." When they do show up on hats, he likes them to look like they came that way he's taken arti ficial flowers apart and sewed the pieces flat all over a num ber of the gayest summer bon nets. A couple of stray blooms stick up from the appliques, as if they grew. Some of them are bold great orange poppies or red roses but most of them are modest flowers violets set in green grass, for instance, with a crys tal dewdrop added for modesty. Language and Learning Topic of Study Group Delphian society had "Lan guage and Learning" as the topic for the last meeting, and there was discussion of the rela tion of language to personal ad justment and mal-adjustment. Language is a tool of thought, and the greater the vocabulary, the more readily one may learn and communicate with olhers, club members were told. It was said that the language spoken in the home has a far greater effect on the child and his speech than that learned in school, insofar as grammar is concerned. Mrs. George Mclntyre, Mrs. L. J. Halfhill, Mrs. O. J. Millard, Mrs. Don Newbury and Mrs. Raymond Miksche were the speakers. Mrs. Verne H. Wilson was leader for the day. f Central Point Club Schedules Meeting Central Point Central Point Garden club will meet Wednes day, April S, at the home of Mrs. James Cornutt, Old Stage road.

Outstanding Violinist To Play in Medford Saturday at School Benno Rabinoff, who will play in Medford April 8, is consid ered one of the nation's most outstanding violinists. Leading critics in the country's largest cities have lavished praise on Robinoff for the past several years. The Rabinoff concert will be the last of the 1949-50 series of the Jackson County Civic Mu sic association. Olin Downes of the New York Times said of Rabinoff "he meets the most formidable ex actions with perfection and case" and mentioned his "re markable sensitiveness, imagi nation and positive grasp of style," as well as his "delicacy of nuances, tender lyricism, wealth of color and depth of expressiveness." Rabinoff. but 39 years old. made a brilliant debut at Car negie hall with the New York Philharmonic, and since that time has toured Europe and made a dozen coast-to-coast tours of the United Slates. The artist's wife, Sylvia Rabi noff, accompanies him. A dis tinguished pianist and a com poser, Mrs. Rabinoff adds so much to her husband's concerts that the two are usually consid ered as a duo rather than as violinist and accompanist.
