Spring Silhouette Slim,
Fashion Designers Agree
New York OJ.ft All signs i By ELIZABETH TOOMEY
point to a basically slim silhou
ette for spring and summer. But
now it is official now every
thing will be so fitted a girl will
need, a shoehorn to get dressed.
Some of New York's top de
signers Monday begin a week
long, series of Spring shows
staged for fashion reporters from
across the nation.
The designers say there's gen
eral agreement on the slim look,
on the natural figure made to
look long and lean. But beyond
that, it's designer's and wearer's
choice.
The, sheath runs' throughout
collections from the couture
group of the New York dress in
stitute. Tunic dresses and long
torso dresses drop the so-called
"waistline" to the hipbone or
thigh, and directoire or regency
influences rake it to the arm-
hole. .
Some sheaths are covered by
panels or overskirts. And there
are full skirts cut to hug the fig
ure.
Here are some" other fashion
trends, as seen in a "watch for
roundup from the designers and
manufacturers participating in
this week's showings.
Much will be going on behind
a woman's back . . . the front of
most costumes will remain sim
ple, but there is much decora
tion and drape at the back. Some
jackets, even button down the
back instead of the front.
Watch for the return of the
short jacket for suits; the cpntin
uation of the three-quarter and
seven-eighths length coat.'
In fabrics, deception is the
rule. Cottons are as sheer and
lustrous as silk. Silks look like
fine woolens. Small prints and
stripes are everywhere; And
most fabrics have a definite
grain, if not an actual pattern.
Watch for bold colors strong
blues, bright greens, tawny
browns and honey beiges.
Lutheran Women
Announce Officers
Officers to serve St. Peter's
Lutheran Women's" society for
the coming year were recently
elected. They are' Mrs. Edwin
Guetzlaff, president; - Mrs. Al
Huntemann, vice-president; Mrs.
Richard Schafer, secretary and
Mrs. John Kerr, treasurer.
The group rwll meet Thurs
day, January 12, at the church
at 1 p.m. Devotions will be fol
lowed by a business meeting
and a program for the coming
year will be discussed.. ..-
Mothers' Club Plans
Meeting on Wednesday
West Side West Side Moth
ers' club will hold the January
meeting at the home of Mrs.
Phillip Humphreys, Ross lane,
Wednesday, January 11 at 8 p.m.
according to an announcement
by. the president, Mrs. Walter
Graff.
United Press Correspondent
New York U.P.) The slim
and prim look will be the thing
for spring daylight hours, Amer
ican designers forecast today as
the 26th National Fashion Press
Week entered its second day.
After dark, the preferred look
will be ladylike . but not prim
and gently flared more often
than slim.
Pauline Trigere, one of seven
designers who showed spring
collections yesterday to more
than 150 out-of-town fashion
writers, turned back to the days
of the old fashioned . ice cream
parlor and designed spring suits
with black and white striped
jackets and solid black shirts.
The Trigere version of a gay
blade's Sunday best 50 years ago
is done several ways. One suit
has the skirt made of white
wool serge pin-striped in black
and the jacket made of black
raw silk. The other suit has a
black wool serge skirt and jack
et with a vest-cat front of strip
ed wool.
The slim, neat lines of next
spring's wool suits give them a
one-piece look. Trigere has add
ed to the illusion by "fusing"
jackets to skirts.. She tucks a
suit jacket into a flat hip band
circling one skirt to give a dress
appearance and in another tucks
the jacket into big, square patch
pockets on the skirt. . .
Semi-fitted jackets and a hint
of the high-bosomed empire line
give Ben : Zuckerman's spring
suits an almost little-girl look.
Zuckerman believes that Far
Eastern colors beige, yellow,
pale green .and pink will re
place the. familiar springtime
suit colors of grey and navy.
Fabrics for spring suits are
often textured this year, but al
ways light weight. Even fluffv
looking beige tweeds, used both
for coats and suits, are feather
weight.

Disaster Funds
Of Red Cross
Near Depletion
New York U.R) The chair
man of the American Red Cross
said today recent floods in the
West and Northwest have all but
drained the organization's disaster-aid
funds.
E. Roland Harriman said the
Red Cross disaster-aid fund is
down to only $1,250,000 on the
eve of the average spring "dis
aster season." '
Harriman said the Red Cross
has spent $18,500,000 in assist
ance to victims of two hurricane
floods in the Northeast and other
disasters since August, 'ivhich is
usually a calm season.. The or
ganization "now is spending S8.
000,000 to aid close to. 10,000
families who were victims of the
Christmas floods in California
and Oregon. ','-. ; -Emergency
Meeting '
'He called the executive com
mitteee of the Board of Gover
nors to an emergency . meeting
in New York Thursday to study
extraordinary disaster condi
tions and decide how to meet
the crisis.
"Any major disaster this
"spring will find the Red Cross
without reserves to do its job,"
Harriman said. "With our com
mitments in the Western states
we will have only $1,250,000 in
the disaster reserve available
for disaster in the heaviest
months which lie ahead."
. Harriman indicated that there
would be no special appeal for
public subscriptions in advance
of the regular March campaign
for funds.

lombia's -leading opposition

Nixon Displayed as
Presidential Timber
Washington (U.R) Vice-
President Richard M. Nixon was
displayed before ranking Repub
licans : Monday night in an in
formal reminder from his friends
that he should be viewed as pres
idential timber if President Ei
senhower bows out. 1
- The occasion was Nixon's 43rd
birthday. The sponsors of his
party were the Chowder and
Marching Club, composed of 16
young House Republicans. Nixon
was a charter! member of the
club when it was formed in 1949
and is now its most distin
guished alumnus.
Most Favor Ike
Most of the group's members
hope Mr. Eisenhower will seek
reelection but favor Nixon if the
President declines renomination
because of 'his heart attack last
fall.
More than 200 Republicans
members of the; House and Sen
ate, of the the White House staff
and of the cabinet and sub-cabinet-
attended the party in the
National Press Club.
Mr. Eisenhower, sent a mes
sage saying he wanted to "salute
Dick on this happy occasion and
wish for him all the best in the
years to come."
Nixon was garbed like present
members of the Chowder and
Marching Club in a white chef's
cap and an apron. His response
to the introductory speeches con
tained no political overtones. He
spoke instead of how he has en
joyed his nine years in Washing
ton.
The Nixon party came in the
face of : continuing reports that
this or that segment of the GOP
would like to "dump" him from
second place on the 1956 ticket
or freeze him out of first place if
Mr. Eisenhower retires.
Nixon's Opposition
But Sen. Barry M. Goldwater
(R-Ariz.) told the party that the
only persons opposing Nixon are
"the Alger Hisses and the Dem
ocrats who are scared to death
of him."
Rep. Glenn R. Davis (R-Wis.),
one of the organizers of the
party, told a reporter that he be
lieves and wants Mr. Eisenhower
to run again but favors Nixon if
the President refuses. .
He said that without Eisen
hower Nixon is "the hope of us
who believe in a middle-of-the-
road policy."
BALL HOUND
Prentiss, Miss. '(U.R) Buster
Lee hopes his setter is . as suc
cessful at huntmg as she is at
baseball. Lee's sandlot team
didn't lose a ball all summer.
Lee said if any balls are fouled
off into the hedge and high
grass surrounding the local dia
mond,"" carry Lou into the
roughs' and cry 'dead ball'." The
dog, he said, . "sniffled around
until she found the ball."
Grace Kelly
In Hollywood
Hollywood (U.R) Grace
Kelly arrived today by train
from the East and left unanswer-
ed the question whether she and
Prince Rainier II? of Monaco
will be married in the United
States or Monaco. ' . '
The smartly dressed actress,
looking a little sleepy, spoke to
reporters fpr only a few min
utes before an MGM publicity
man hustled her off in a studio
limousine. There were plenty of
reporters, photographers and TV
camera men but only a handful
of fans.
"I still have flo plans as to
where the wedding will be," she
said- "It will be formal with a
mass and after Easter. No. I
haven't yet made plans for "a
wedding gown."
One-Week Courtship
Miss Kelly admitted she actu
ally had known the Monte Carlo
monarch for only a week in
New York before she decided
she wanted to marry him. But
she laughed when asked if she
thought it was a rather brief
time.
A reporter pointed out that
after she- does two films this
year for MGM she can have a
year's vacation. "Are you going
to. have a baby m that time?"
the reporter asked.
"Well . . ." was the only answer.
