In the market place like a sack of potatoes."
Oiicago Television siar Arthur Godfrey after being irked by
a cattle agent who twice upped his price 25 cents a pound at the

Q Hampton, Va. Squadron Commander Maj. Jerry Hogue on
Lt. Wilbert L. Messmaker, who ignored Hogue's order to bail out

Day's Ciothmg-May Be Sprayed On; Built-in Tliermosfaf Predicted Soon
By DOC QUIGG
United Press Correspondent
New York HP Gentlemen,
let us now begin thinking what
manner of men we will appear
to be when the wave of the fu
ture hits the men's clothing in
dustry. Will men's duds turn
eerie?
Will there be push - button
clothing, with built-in heating,
air-conditioning, and we might
as well think big shower baths?
Will we let the Russians get a
big jump on us in such fields as,
say, non-itch fabrics, self-sealing
pockets, shine - resisting pants
seats, and other such sure-to-come
improvements?
Our scouts have fetched in re
liable reports that a radical
fringe of the clothing industry
already is speculating that the
time will coma when you will
step out of the shower in the
morning and your wife will
spray that day's clothing onto
you with an aerosol bomb con
taining chemical clothing com
pounds. 1
A Duds Disintegrator
The scouts did not say how
you get the stuff off at night, but
it is to be presumed that ways
will be found. Perhaps every
home will be equipped with a
duds disintegrator closet into
which you step and poof!
you're undressed.
In search of an authoritative
voice in the male raiment field,
we corralled Robert Asher, a big
men's pants man from Massachu
setts, vice president of the Asher
Company of Fitchburg. He de
signs and makes men's and boy's
slacks, and he's setting up a re
search division to delve into fab
rics and materials for the future
He said he could envision dis
posable paper clothing before
long; he could see the possibility
of chemically treated things that
would react automatically to the
weather as if thermostatically
controlled. But when asked about
the talk of spray-gun garb, he
used a forceful word: "Malar
key." However, he said he suspected
that within a couple of years
there might be sprays on the
market something like a silicon-finish
kit with which your
wife could spray your conven
tional fabric clothing to water
proof it in the face of a sudden
rainstorm.
"That spray-on clothing thing
hosing a guy down in the
morning and sending him out
into the world is interesting to4p
imagine," he said. "But I suspect
that if there's any spraying it
will be onto the conventional
type of clothing which - let's
face it helps to cover up fat
rolls, knock knees, and kindred
defects.
Paper Underwear Maybe
"However, I think it's just a
matter of time before we'll see
paper underwear, paper hand
kerchiefs, and, over a longer
period, paper shirts, slacks, and
more complicated garments. I
envision them for heavy work or
play, and it's conceivable that, if
it's made with low cost, you can
just take the stuff and throw it
away after wearing.
"I'll venture that, five years
from now we'll look back on
1957 and be . amazed at the pace.
You'll see emerging almost
iaper-light fabrics with crease
resistance. The ultimate goal is
a chemical lining or a treated
fabric that will react as a ther
mostat does. If the body needs
heat, it will let your body heat
be retained: if the body is giving
off heat, this thing will let it be
released thus beating th
weather."
Consider, then, tomorrow's
man wearing a thermostat.
Even Solomon in all his glory
was not arrayed like one of
these.
