Mrs. Marjorie Green and Mrs. Nunya Lizberg, just back from attending the clothing market in Los Angeles, report that "it's the chemise look in every thing all types of clothing and in all price ranges." Mrs. Green says that the lingerie makers are already putting out special "chemise slips" and other under-garments to match the new dresses and suits. She consoled Potpourri by adding that many of the new dresses are really becoming to the wearer and not as ugly as some think. A few designers sneaked the "sack dress" into sports clothes about three years ago, and Potpourri bought one in a gray sail cloth with rope belt. This garment was really a sack it was cut as if it had been fitted on a section of out size telephone pole. Actually, it didn't look half bad when first we put it on, belted it and arranged the folds of mate rial to best advantage. But it wouldn't stay that way. Twenty minutes later, all the extra fullness had worked to the front with disconcerting results. At least one male journalist spoke his mind about the chemise style. Hugh A. Mulligan of the Associated Press at tended one of the fashion shows in New York last week and reported sourly that "the girl of your dreams will be as sexy as a barbershop calendar still wrapped in its cardboard mailing tube." Mr. M. further said that "in closing the fash ion gap, the bosom, derriere and other capitalistic tourist attractions have been relegated to the couturier's Siberia." After watching "sack after sack" paraded by the fashion models, he described the last one in the show, "a baretop evening chemise which provided the silhouette effect of a semi-naked girl peeping sheepishly out of an upright sewer pipe." This has been puzzling Potpourri why is the chemise dress is so high style isn't it worn more by the femmes on the big television shows? Many of the star entertainers and high-salaried gals who give forth with the commercials are still wearing full-skirted frocks or sheath dresses. Come to think of it, Actress Jayne Mansfield's wedding dress wasn't exactly a chemise design, either. Jayne's dress, as described by one of the newsroom staff, looked like an ultra-tight bath ing suit with a long lace ruffle added. "How's Your Etiquette?" asks Changing Times In the January issue. In spite of our status as a society editor, we learned a few new pointers. According to the magazine, a fur stole is an adornment, while a fur coat is an article of clothing therefore a man may properly give his fiancee a fur stole but not a fur coat. It is also proper to telegraph a formal invitation, to sop up gravy with a bit of bread providing you convey the mor sel to your mouth with a fork, and to serve only one or two kinds of drinks at a cocktail party. The rules also said and these are often violated that a married woman never signs her name with "Mrs." except in parenthesis after her signa ture; that butter plates are correctly used only for luncheons and never for formal dinners; that bridesmaids are never escorted down the aisle by ushers at weddings and that a woman never takes off her gloves before shaking hands. This last rule is little observed here for receptions and similar events; many women remove their gloves after leaving the church before going through the receiving line. Fashions and etiquette are interesting, but as far as we "re concerned, should take a back seat right now to interest in national and international affairs. Last night Charles O'Brien was here from San Francisco as a representative of the Foreign Policy association to address a meeting at which the coming Great Decisions program was discussed. Mr. O'Brien, who stressed that in this respect he was talking as a citizen and not as a representative of the association, said he thought this nation might well remember what Theodore Roosevelt said about "walking softly and carrying a big stick." What this country is doing now, he said, was exactly the opposite we're talking big and carrying a mighty little stick. The San Franciscan also thinks that because of Sputnik, we're headed in the direction of hysteria and a lot of calami tous decisions, a situation which he said followed the Alger Hiss trial when he allowed the politicians to put a "straight jacket on the scientists" and a lot of unnecessary if not downright stupid security controls into operation. He plead ed for a calmer reaction and to negotiations with the Soviets and not on a sweeping tion, what then?" he asked. Mr. O Brien also wants this country to remember that we once engaged in a revolution to throw off a tyrant, and said that in many countries today the under-privileged masses are still thrilled and inspired by that revolution and what has "American story" told by such ica and not by the "Madison The questions and answers after a bit Chairman Harold get on with the business of groups. Mr. O'Brien earnestly told the gathering that this nation's foreign policy must stem from an informed citizenry. and must be re-formed and present crisis. But even Mr. O'Brien had Prospect said in a meek voice "Well, we had three real active Great Decisions groups in Prospect last winter but we've de cided Secretary Dulles must not have heard about our con clusions."
