Depression 30s
Exert Influence
On New Fashions
By GAY PAULEY
United Presi Correspondent
New York 'U P) Fashions of
the depression 30s now sape
the shape of the prosperous '50s.
Designers have turned for in
spiration to the years of the
bread lines for spring, 1957,
clothes lines. One industry source
explained there is a logical rea
son why the 30s trend dominates
in clothes which this week will
be shown 300 reporters from the
United States and Canada.
Sponsor of the semi-annual
shows, by 40 leading designers
and manufacturers, is the Cou
ture group of the New York
Dress Institute.
Eleanor Lambert, spokesman
for the group, said the era when
"prosperity is just around the
corner" has much in common
with the "peace in our time"
sentiment today. Both were jit
tery periods and clothes reflect a
national state of mind. Let us
get a case of nerves, and fashion
becomes simpler. Clothes be
come extravagant when there is
no unrest.
This spring, every way a wom
an turns she will see the influ
ence of such great designers of
the 30s as Chanel, Mainbocher,
and Molyneux. New suits, for in
stance, are as casual and easy
fitted as if Channel herself had
turned them out.
The leather-belted suit is
back, with belt sometimes
circling the skirt rather than the
jacket. The silhouette in general
has a sharper outline, through
the unobtrusive squaring of
shoulders, necklines and yokes.
Coats usually button, rather
than wrap and the waistline re
turns to normal, replacing 1956's
high-riding empire.
Skirts for daytime are an inch
or so longer than last spring.
and the Couture group said the
"demi-length," or near the
ankles, is the top trend for eve
ning.
Roosevelt PTA
To Hear Speaker
Roosevelt Parent-Teacher as
sociation will hold its monthly
meeting Thursday, January 10,
at 8 p.m. in the school auditorium.
Dr. Marry Danielson will be
the guest speaker for the eve
ning. The topic, "Parents role in
helping children ages 6 to 12," is
to be followed by a question and
answer period.
Hostesses for the evening will
be mothers of the pupils in the
fourth grade.
Griffin Creek Club
To Hold Meetina
Griffin Creek Griffin Creek
Community School club will hold
its next meeting Wednesday,
January 9, at 8 o'clock in the
cafeteria of the school.
Leonard Mayfield, superin
tendent of the Medford school
system, will talk on school legis
lation. The club urges a large attend
ence so that the community at
large may be informed as to
present thinking on school legis
lation. Refreshments will be served

Wednesday Club
Hears Review of
Captain's Story
Mrs. R. T. Nichol reviewed
the story "Captain of the
Queens," from a Reader's Digest
book, a condensation of "The
Autobiography of Captain Harry
Grattidge," as told to Richard
Collier, at the last meeting of
the Wednesday Study club.
The author relates the experi
ences of a lad choosing the sea
as a profession. Signing with
the four-masted bark Osborne
when 14 years of age, he endur
ed the lonesomeness, tyranny of
superiors, long voyages, violent
storms, even mutiny, the trag
edy and danger of both World
Wars, culminating in the proud
est position in the British Mer
chant Marine, Captain of the
Queen Mary.
Captain Grattidge was later
promoted to commodore of the
Cunard line and captain of the
great ship Queen Elizabeth. He
retired after fifty years of serv
ice, knowing the incomparable
satisfaction that the sea returns
to those who serve it zestfully.
Mrs. M. M. Morris gave a short
talk with dolls as the subject.
She spoke of the primitive peo
ples of Africa, Cuba, India and
other foreign countries, who use
dollas as tokens of safety and
good luck, or for evil purposes.
Dolls are also used for ceremo
nial and religious reasons even
in this country. Mrs. Morris also
mentioned the famous collection
of Queen Victoria, many of the
dolls being in museums.
