Hats for Spring
To Be Very Big
Designers Say
By ELIZABETH TOOMEY
United Press Correspondent
New York (U.R) The horse
less carriage lasted despite
doubters of 50 ynn --j and
now the hats that went with
the era are back.
Under the brims and blooms
that you'll see fluttering in next
spring's breezes will be women
who wouldn't have left the
house in any hat bigger than a
pillbox last season.
This week inaugurates offici
ally the spring fashion previews
in New York City. More than
100 fashion writers from all
parts cf the United States are
here for six days of steady look
ing at dresses, coats, suits and
hats that make top fashion news
from 1956.
Starting from the top, the
news they'll see will be big. A
man may or may not like the
new hat his wife buys for next
Easter, but you can bet he'll
notice it.
John Frederics calls his king
sized hats his "horseless carriage
collection." Designer Adolf of
Emrae, who has one spring hat
that measures 28 inches across,
says they're "1900-ish."
Sally Victor sums it up with
breezy directness. "They're big,
aren't they?" Mrs. Victor asked.
"The cycle has gone as far as it
can the other way. They couldn't
get smaller."
"We've found how to make
big hats that don't overwhelm
the woman," Mrs. ' Victor said.
"When hats were really big
before they often were gro
tesque . . . only women who had
a real flair could wear them.
These are different."

W"hen a person sets up another

io a wagon when I am with
ihem. Of course. I am pleased
to have my daughter and her
father get along so well, espe
cially when I hear some of my
friends talk about the friction
between their . daughters and
husbands.
"However, there is a problem
that is getting more serious as
my daughter gets older. No boy
she has ever dated seems to
measure up favorably io her
father and, as a result, she soon
gets tired of him. I want her
to marry and have a home and
family. I do not think she is
meant to be a business girl,
though she has . enjoyed her
work since she left high school
and has a very good job. Can
you give me some suggestions
on how to cope with this prob
lem?" Mrs. M.P.
(A) It must be your husband
rather , than you who will have
to cope with this problem,
though you can help indirectlv
by giving him suggestions. Your
daughter must be "psychologi
cally weaned" from her father
so she can see other men as
individuals, not inferior reflec
tions of her father.

Your hushand can impress
upon your daughter the fact that
no two people are the same,
even though they may be equal
ly as good. Then he can start to
help her build up standards of
what she wants in a future hus
band. By focussing her attention
on her "ideal" rather than on
her father, your daughter will
begin to free herself of the
strong emotional attachment for
her father.
In addition, your husband can
help her evaluate the men she
meets and dates with this icl
