"Easter Parade" was the theme, and large drawings of Easter bun nies decorated the walls. Bou quets of daisies centered the luncheon tables, and brightly blooming potted plants, on sale by league members, added to the color. The show opened with "Parade of the Moppets" with children of league members modeling clothes for the sand box set. The small models included Myr na Lou Cummins, Lee Wimber ly, Bonnie and Scott Holmes. Barbara and David Collins, Ronny and Blitz Jones, Susan and Cathy Root and Chris and Mick Rasmussen. Second section of the show was titled "Casuals on Review" and a variety of sports, play and street clothes were shown. Ma terials included sailcloth in sol id colors and stripes, gay prints, flannels, an'im ported chambray. as beautiful as silk and com binations of linen and pongee. One of the outstanding items in this review was a turquoise suede leather suit effectively modeled by Mrs. Carl Wimber ly Jr. - Following intermission the show continued with "Down the Avenue" during which street clothes were shown. While the traditional navy blue and black are always shown, the spring color picture includes much lav ender, in many shades and vari ations, and muted pinks. The trend toward matching shoes was in evidence. A pink gabardine suit mod eled by Mrs. James Cummins and a gray suit worn by Mrs. C. B. Collins were among the out standing street clothes shown in this group. During "Dress Parade" the models wore afternoon dresses, evening gowns and furs. New colors and combinations were of interest. One dress was of iridescent silk organza, another combined royal blue, black and white and a third was of green and aquamarine.. Expensive mink furs modeled by Mrs. Emil Mohr brought appreciative mur murs from the audience. - The show closed with a bridal party.
