o 'WS-TD? ORD (ORXGOKl MAIL TRIBUNE Thursday, rTorember 21, 1937 Men Who Ridicule Feminine fashions Should Look At Themselves, Pucci Says ly ALFRED LEECH United Press Correspondent Chicago IP) Custom tailor Lawrence Pucci Jr. says men who ridicule feminine fashions Itiould take a look at them jfclves. The Ivy League look was bad enough, said Pucci, president of the Association of Custom Tail ors and Designers of America. But now comes the "Edward ian look." This consists of narrow cuff less pants with belted backs and narrow jackets with cuffs on the sleeves. A fashion note pro claims that these duds will be worn by "style conscious men as an assertion of their individ uality." Pucci Cries 'Ludicrous "Ludicrous," said Pucci, who makes clothes for some of America's best dressed males "Here we are in the dawn of the space age, with Sputniks cir cling the earth, and we're dig ging back into the fashion attic to don grouse hunting suits "Clothes like these should be worn against a backdrop of cas tles and manor houses." He conceded that Ivy League garb might be permissible for "boys in school," especially if the school has ivy-covered walls or Gothic architecture. But a man stepping into a turbo-jet plane or a new sports car looks foolish in "horse and carriage raiment," Pucci said, Imitate Diamond Jim "Surrounded by modernity, we're trying to dress like Dia mond Jimy Brady or Sherlock Holmes," he said. "It's an idiot ic affectation." There is a "crying need for original thought," in men's at tire, Pucci said. The ideal suit, he said, could be worn anywhere, regardless of season, climate or occasion. "A businessman who starts his day in Chicago or New York may well finish it in San Fran cisco, Miami, or Toronto," he said. "So his clothing should be that adaptable. "He should be able to attend the theater one night, a cocktail party the next afternoon and a prize fight that night, wearing the same suit." But before we reach this ideal Pucci said, we may have to shed some foibles like neckties, la pels and shoes that lace in the archaic manner of a Roman sandal.

BEWARE OF IMITATIONS LOOK f Ok THE HAPPY LITTLE COG TOPS IN QUALITY! LOW IN PRICE Osteopath Says Experiment With Blind Is Successful East Orange, N. J. (IP) An os teopath told today of successful experiments in which a blind woman saw light by artificial means. He said the electronic process may be developed into a sort of seeing aid, comparable to 'elec tronic hearing aid. Dr. John C. Button Jr. of East Orange, who conceived the ex periment, said it was conducted on Betty Corstorphine, 35, of Newark, N. J., last October in Los Angeles. During the experi ment, tiny holes were drilled in her skull and steel wires were implanted in her brain. Attached to the wires was a photocell which she held in her hand. When the light in the darkened room was turned on Miss Corstorphine exclaimed: "I can see the light," Button said. He said she could tell when the light was turned on and from which direction it came. Button said the experiment was only a beginning from which he hopes to construct a more finely developed device which will be able to perceive shades of light and patterns. He said a team of physicians from Rochester State Hospital in Rochester, Minn., also took part in the experiment. The Rochester doctors are mapping the brain to determine which areas are asso ciated with particular senses, such as sight. It was this mapping that en abled the experimenters to de termine where in Miss Corstor phine's brain the wires should be placed, he said. Greenville, S. C.
