By ELIZABETH TOOMEY
Uniled Press Correspondent o
New York OJ.Rj' The week
when ost of us exercise the
rimmeTided 10 minutes for
seven days running and bend
ing and kicking is next week.
Put-of-till-tomorrow calisth
enics make- good conversation
but bad figures. Easy chairs are
full of 'em.
. Sometimes a pep talk by an
expert who paints a flowing fu
ture picture of the shape we
could be in inspires action. Just
such an expert passed through
here the other day on her way
from a day-long calisthenics
demonstration in New Jersey to
her own bodyshaping headquar
ters in nearby While Plains,
N.Y.
Ten Minutes- a Day
'"Give me 10 minutes a day
and within two years I can take
15 years off the age of your
fofy," she said.
Tvlaturally, we- immediately
promised to provide the 10 daily
minutes. q
Bonnie Prudden looked un
convinced. Promises she gets all
the time. But people who ac
tually do devote 10 minutes
each day, "not every day but
Sunday, but every day," she
said, to proper exercises for
their figures are hard to find.
Miss Prudden is 42 years old
with a figure at least 15 years
younger. She is a director of the
Institute of Physical Fitness in
White Plains, and the author of
a book soon to be published
called '"Is Your Child Really
Fit?"
She says '"forget how much
you weigh," when you start try
ing ta re-shape yourself. It's
the measurements that count.
She gets as many people who
(We the proper weight, yet out
of shape, as she does overweight
people. Her pupils are from four
years old to 80 years old.

'It is never too late," she
said. "It is sometimes easier for
me to get a woman of 35 in
shape than to sheipe her 13-year-old
daughter," Miss Prudden
said.
She says the average woman
past 30 who comes to her in
stitute has weak and soft ab
dominal muscles and is begin-
! ning to get excess fat at the
j hipline and the waistline. Many
ask her how to keep the upper
part of their arms firm. She
recommends "simple pushups"
for the latter problem, begin
ning with only letting your body
down to the floor slowly to
strengthen your arms, adding
the pushing up later.

Lack of Royalty
At Rites Worry
To Monegasques
By ROBERT AHIER
United Press Correspondent
Monte Carlo, Monaco UPJ
How much royalty is going to
show up at the big royal wed
ding next month.
This question is bothering a
lot of tourist - minded Monaco
residents as preparations go
ahead for the April 18-19 nup
tials of Prince Rainier and
Grace Kelly.
There's a grim possibily that
Prince Rainier himself may be
the only royal personage for the
100,000 wedding visitors to
look at.
British There?
"Do you think the British
royal family will come?" total
strangers are asked by worried
Monegasques.
Ditto the royal families of
Belgium, Luxembourg, Italy,
Spain, France and other Euro
pean countries. Most of them
don't have thrones, but their
presence would do a lot to liven
up a wedding.
The reason for concern is
Prince Rainier. Europe's royal
families it is feared, may give
him the same brush-off which
he, on occasion, has given them.
Slays at Home
Out of shyness or lack of in
terest, the handsome bachelor
prince always has found an ex
cuse to avoid royal shindigs out
side his own small storybook
realm.
He even dodged the corona
tion of Queen Elizabeth II, and
everybody who was anybody
went to that one.
Besides Rainier's aloofness to
royal society there is the matter
of publicity. A lot of Europe's
bluebloods are said to be turn-'
ing up their well-bred noses at
their wedding invitations be
cause of all the advance bally
hoo. Their complaint is that the oc
casion will be less a royal wed
ding than a final scene from an
MGM musical.

Men's New Spring Clothing
Shows Far-Eastern Influence
By ELIZABETH TOOMEY
United Press Correspondent
New York (U.R) Don't be
surprised if your husband comes
home this spring with a puggree
band on his Easter hat, Chines
lettering on. his bamboo-colored
socks and a Mandarin xollar on
his new sports shirt.
It's the Far-Eastern influence,
the same one that has women
wearing turbans, Oriental
sheaths and Indian saris. ,
Men get a gentle introduction
to any "new look" in their
wardrobes. So behind the scenes
in the men's fashion industry the
Oriental influence is referred to
in cautious terms.
"We're starting with the hat
bands," a hat manufacturer said.
"We use the puggree drape,
copied from the scarf wound
around an Indian helmet, new
colors and occasionally sneak a
bow in the back. Changes in
men's fashions are slow."
Madras plaid shirts, introduc
ing the muted Oriental shades in
sports shirts, are one shirt manu
facturer's answer to acquainting
men gradually with Far Eastern
colors. .
New Colors
Another fnen's hat manufac
turer has' named its spring felts
colors "teakwood, hemp, Malay
and coffee bean."
Sock manufacturers aren't so
subtle. Men will be able to buy
nylon stretch socks in that bam
boo shade mentioned' above,
with Chinese lettering down the
sides. They also can purchase
socks in an Oriental shade called

their legs and reveal lacquer red
socks with a Chinese bird em

One men's hat manufacturer
has - hired a woman whose job
it is to acquaint other women
with these new style changes.
"We are continually troubled
with women's influence in our
business," Caye Christie, fashion
consultant for Lee Hats, ex
plained. "She buys shirts and
ties and socks with confidence.
But when it comes to hats, she
is unsure. She is afraid her hus
band will look ridiculous in a
different style."
More . Dimensions
Miss Christie's company set
tled for subtle new Oriental
colors in felt. They're also try
ing a new "three dimensional''
brim which' should be a solution
for men hesitant to try the new
narrow-brimmed hats. The brim
is two inches wide oh the sides,
one-eighth of an inch narrower
in front and one-eighth of an
inch wider in .back. . .
. The other . ' foreign flavor
that's creeping - into .men's de
signs comes from Italy. Horizon
tal stripes on dress shirts will
be one new spring time example.
Narrow-brimmed hats and slim
cut suits and tapered, calf
length sports slacks also come
from Italy.
New Shoe Fashions Show Influence
Of East in Both Color and Material
St. Louis The Shoe Fashion
board oi SV Louis believes that
Eastward lies the new shoe di
rection. This direction is indicat
ed by Orientally inspired ready-to-wear
such as side-slit caftan
coats, frog-fastened mandarin
jackets, coolie hats, tunic coats
copied after those of Indian
princes, and ankle-length
trousers.
While costume designers are
Americanizing the fluid fabrics
of " -dian saris, the intricacies of
Persian embroidereies and the
intensity of indigo, Chinese' red
and gold, the 'lure of the Orient
also captures the imagination of
St. Louis shoe designers.
They're turning tapered toes
to the East in low-sided' slippers,
pumps, and mules taken from
authentic examples of . Oriental
shoemaking. Thong sandals,
banded or twisted sandals ex
press themes they've borrowed
from India, Tibet and Japan. For
play and leisure footwear, they
turn toes .upward and cut
wedges to-exotic new slimness.
But-.it is through the use of
resplendent colors and Far East
ern materials that St. Louis de
