By GAY PAULEY
United Press Correspondent
New York W The new
clothes, although simple in sil
houette, come in some fancy-
sounding fabrics.
This fall, if a girl is to shop
wisely, she will have to know
cuch materials as silk broad
cloth, lame chiffon, crepe marc-
cain, hammered satin, tissue
tweed and chantilly wool lace.
Designers employ such a va
riety oftfabrics the International
Silk association put out a gloss
ary of terms in collections shown
this week by the couture group
of the New York Dress Institute.
That broadcloth, for Instance,
is "a fine smooth silk cloth fre
quently used for shirts." Only
this year, it'll be in dresses also.
Lame chiffon is a light weight
silk cloth with gold or silver
surface of metallic threads.
Crepe marocain is just a heavy

Fabrics Appear
Fall Clothes
silk crepe; hammered satin, a
fabric with mottled surface-like
hammered brass or copper.
Tiss'te Tweed
Tissue tweed is one way to
describe the non-bulky light
weight tweeds for fall. And chan
tilly wool lace is like any other
chantilly lace in pattern, but
made from wool yarn.
Other jaw-breaking terms for
the new season:
Roshanara crepe, a heavy silk
crepe with a wool backing: gros
de londres, a heavy formal dress
fabric with a pronounced rib in
the weave; chameuse, a very thin
silk with satin weave and the
high polish of satin and panne
velvet, a velvet which has been
pressed so that the pile lies flat.
A girl also had better get
used to the term plastron front,
which is a trimming for the front
of a dress, narrowed from shoul
ders to waistline. The marin sil
houette also is with us marin
is French for sailor, and de
scribes the middy-like cut of
two-piece dresses or suits.
Sailor Influence
One designer influenced by
seafarers is Karen Stark of Har
vey Berin. She not only uses
the middy, but cuts daytime
dresses in marin blue wool, a
blue just a' bit lighter than reg
ulation navy. She also shows the
sailor collar and the cable
stitch of sailor sweaters adapted
into the weave of wool jersey
dresses.
"Project vanguard," the laun
ching of America's first earth
satellite, inspires Adele Simp
son's fall collections. Most of
her . clothes are cut on easy-fit-tine
but slim lines.
Included is the "telescope" sil
houette, with horizontal tiers
forming the narrow skirts of
daytime and cocktail dresses of
black crepe. Mrs. Simpson shows
split-level skirts for evening. A
strapless gown with softly-draped
bodice has a floor lengtn
skirt caught just above the knee
by a big bow, and slit .to reveal
a second midcalf length skirt
beneath.
New Colors
The Simpson collection includ
ed "cosmic colors," such as Ven
us pink, moon white, meteor
red, vapor beige and Saturn or
medium brown.
Mollie Parnis prefers the slim
silhouette for fall, but has elim
inated the skin-tight sheath. She
is one of several designers pro
viding at least 10 more inches
at the hemline in this classic
dress.
Unlike some designers who
have hauled jacket lengths down
ward Miss Parnis keeps the short
jacketed costume or suit the
jacket ending at the waistline or
a couple of inches below, and
often collared in fur.
"Cuddle" Clown
Have a circus of fun with this
12-inch clown made of a sock
and remnants. He's so cute and
cuddly young and old will love
him"

child! Pattern 7043 has pattern

Crosby Tells Work
On E-R Commission

due back on the stand.
Crosy, 43, took the stand as
the trial continued Saturday and
told of his work as an Exposi

member and of his past life.
He is charged with conspiracy
to realize a profit from sale of
property in the Broadway-Steel
bridge site for the E-R center.
Crosby told of the hiring of
the Stanford Research Institute
to survey proposed sites for the
$8 million center. He said it was
his own feeling that the com
mission should obtain the best
professional advice. He said he
favored the Broadway - Steel
bridge site since early reports
of the institute which he thought
favored it.
Crosby said he was appointed
as international representative
of the Teamsters In 1954 and be
fore that was secretary-treasurer
to local 162. Before that he
was a truck driver.

On The Side
(Distributed by Kine
Reviewing the Paris presenta
tion by the American company
of O'Neill's "Long Day's . Jour
ney Into Night," several critics
praised the performances highly
but indicated they found the play
a bit boring. I am gratified to
find somebody who agrees with
me. That's what I thought. In
the writing of the play being dis
cussed, O'Neill seems to have for
gotten everything about dramatic
technique he learned in Profes
sor Baker's Harvard Workshop.
It certainly is a sloppy piece of
playwriting. Even more so than
that dreary O'Neill opus titled
"The Iceman Cometh."
ROUNDABOUT
While waiting at a Fifth ave.,
intersection for the light to
change, I heard a nearby blonde
say to her companion, "He is
going to propose to me. Of that
I am certain." Her companion
said, "Don't be too certain."
How right she was !A sBen
Franklin said ."Mais dans ce
monde il n'y rien d'assure que
la mort et lest impots."

field Parrish's painting titled
"Old King Cole" decorated the
Hotel Knickerbocker bar in
1916. On that my friend and I
agree. We differ on the price of
a Manhattan cocktail in that bar
at that time. Help please. A. At
the time you mention, cocktails
(Manhattan, Martini or Bronx)
were priced at the Hotel Knick
erbocker bar at two for a quar
ter. Q. Don't you know it was
Byron, not Fanny Fern, who said
"The way to a man's heart is
through his stomach"? A. It was
Fanny Fern who made the ob
servation referred to. What
Byron said was:

HYNOTISM
Hypnotism is not difficult to
master. In fact, a 13-year-old
boy after reading a book on the
subject put a schoolmate into a
trance. That hypnotism is easily

AMONG THE MARRIED
Is your daughter, by any
chance, ' considering marriage
with a man of Irish birth or de
scent? If so advise her not to
take too lightly the claim that
marrying an Irishman greatly
increases her chances of be
coming the mother of twins.
Practically every day I hear of
the wife of some Irishman hav
ing a double feature blessed
event. The latest is Mrs. Patricia
Monahan of Cresskill, N.Y. She
is the mother of twin boys who
at birth weighed seven pounds
and nine ounces and eight
pounds and fourteen ounces. The
lads are named Michael and Tim
othy.
BUSINESS WOMEN
Paulette Goddard is the smart
est business woman in ' Holly
wood nistory. So I note it said.
That's wrong. Smartest business
woman of all film actresses is
Mary Pickford. Ruth Roland
rates second in that respect. Ruth
made a million dollars in busi
ness deals when monev was
much more difficult to acquire'
than now. Paulette Goddard
rates third among Hollywood
females as to business shrewd
ness. Janet Gaynor is fourth.
Rosalind Russell is fifth.

Abboff-Coslello Part
On 'Friendly Terms'
Hollywood W Comedians
Bud Abbott and Lou Costello
have decided to part on "friend
ly terms" after 20 years of be
ing one of Hollywood's top
money-making teams, the com
ics' agent revealed today.
The agent, Eddie Sherman,
said Abbott wanted to end the
partnership so he could devote
full time to raising thorough
breds at his Ojai, Calif., ranch.
Sherman said Costello planned
to continue as a "single" in
movies, nightclubs and on tele
vision. Legally, the partnership re
mains in force. Both will con
tinue to share percentages from
their movies.
Costello, the rotund member
of the team, has made three solo
appearances on the Steve Allen
television show. He also is sched
uled to make a movie based on
the life of the late New York
Mayor Fiorello LaGuardia.
Bomb Test Fallout
Said Not Dangerous
Washington OP! Two mem
bers of the Senate-House Atom
ic Energy committee agree that
the amount of radioactive fall
out resulting from bomb tests is
not dangerous.
But they also believe that the
radiation level could reach the
danger point if nuclear bomb
testing continues at the same
rate for the next 10 years.
Reps. Chet Holifield. (D-Calif.)
and James Van Zandt (R-Pa.),
discussed findings of the joint
committee hearings on atomic
radiation and fallout on a tele
vision program Sunday Cele
brity Parade, ABC.
They said the American peo
ple do not have "all the facts
now about atomic radiation.
But they said this will be cor
rected with publication of com
