New models in sports jackets, new fabrics of bolder design, rimmer, more comfortable slacks and outerwear gar ments patterned after the best American and Continental de signs are the key features of the garments slated for new season leisure wear.

Three Lengths Are Available in Coats Kow do you like your top "coat short, medium or long? You can have all three and be well-dressed for all occa sions. The fingertip-length coat is still tremendously pop ular and gives lots of use for knock-about. They fit well over bulky knit sweaters when there's a real chill! Among the best are the wool meltons and the tweeds. And for extra warmth, you might like one with a bulky knit shawl collar that lies flat or pops up at command to comfort the neck. The ideal medium length coat is the camel color all wool knee-length. American warmer that will be seen everywhere this fall. Double breasted, with straight back, and sometimes sporting a tick et pocket, it looks sporty for campus wear, jaunty with a suit. The polo coat is good fash Ion this fall and represents the longer length coat, along with the tweedy balmacaans. In camel-color, the belted polo coat is a middle-of-the-road sort of coat; not so sporty as the tweedy balmacaan, which is, of course, very right for campu3 casual wear, and not so snappy as the trim Chester field, which is used strictly lor dress-up. Shades of the 20s Come football weather, and many young men will be making their trek to the sta dium in the double-breasted "polo coat" which, with its two-piece belt in back strikes a nostalgic note, reminiscent of the 1920's. Among the many "good pickings" in sportswear are floral printed separates, in a garden of gala colors. "The bolder the better" is the motto for new fall plaids y fferj " ' ' '''' t; $& ' &BS -J ' l Men's Overcoats Shorter; Better For Motoring Men s topcoats and over coats are definitely shorter in length this Fall, thus combin ing style and practicality for highly satisfying results. The new coats lose none of their warmth because of their shorter length, and are more perfect garments for either walking or motoring. Among the new models are those with the popular "split- raglan construction. These appear to have set-in sleeves at the front but when viewed from the back, they have the easy fitting raglan shoulder, Dressy Models Dressy models patterned after the "American Ambas sador" suit style are available while the traditional big shaped balmacaans, the semi' fitted chesterfields and the roomy box coats use lighter- weight but very warm fab rics in new colors and new weaves. The double-breasted coat shows signs of returning in the form of a short length British Warm model. These coats are patterned after the officer's military model but come in many shades and cloths. Fall topcoat tweeds show a flat surface no longer rough or nabby. Lightweight wool hopsacking is favored for early autumn. The muted plaid Saxony covert topcoat both single-breasted and rag lan shouldered, will be chosen by many businessmen. Big red satchels, in knits and simulated leathers, are a popular accessory for the col lege girl. Fresh white collars and other white neckwear provide Continental Designs Feature Men's Sportswear This Fall Fur's Luxury Is Apparent in Fall Fashion Favorites Fur's greatest appeal, its air of luxury, is more appar ent than ever this fall. Sil houettes are going modern, following fashion's favorites, and pelts are truly handled like cloth." This closer-than-ever rela tionship between styles in fur and fabric tends to point up the elegance and beauty of fur. When "Why fur?" is the question, "For luxury and loveliness is the answer, or so furriers are going all out to prove, in an effort that seems, on the basis of this fall's fashion-wise furs, highly efective. Like all current fashions, new furs make their silhou ette stand on ease and va riety. The choice includes the low- or high-waisted slim che mise, the trapeze for youthful fullness, and the bulky, look coat with top width tapered to the hem, in many pretty adaptations. Relaxed Look Shirring, paneling, soften ing of shoulder and back lines all contribute to the relaxed look. Furs as well as silhouettes are varied. There are such fa vorites as mink, seal, Persian lamb, broadtail, chinchilla and beaver. Stone marten and fisher are making a pome- back, while sable and fox are gaining new popularity. Ot ter, racoon, squirrel, spotted furs and even monkey fur get a place in the fall fashion limelight. Extending the variety theme further are the neck line treatments, which range from bare and collarless (fine for the addition of a fur scarf or that newly revived favo rite, the boa) to the equally important look of the big, big collar. "Fur on fur" gains fashion strength, in imaginative com binations such as natural op possum on black-dyed Persian lamb or silver fox on black dyed broadtail, as well as the more expected pairings. When the "fur on fur" is a collar, the use of the con trasting fur for buttons and Empire or low waistline bands provides a fresh look. Another newsmaker is the use of a second fur for cuffs on a collarless coat. dom of movement. Some of the new jackets are made in modern versions of the classic belted Norfolk styles. Deep vents, roomy pockets in both set-in and patch styles and colorful fancy linings are among the. other features of these coats. Blazers Are Popular "Blazer" jackets in solid colors as well as in stripes are high up on the list of favor ites. Stripes, hopsackings, di agonals, herringbones and some bold checks and plaids lead the new pattern parade. New slacks are slim and trim without being binding. Self-supporting styles made with one pleat, two pleats or no pleats at all are as popul lar as the belted plain front models in the "Ivy" styles. Many of the latter have dis carded the familiar back straps in favor of hip pocket flaps. , Flannels, wool - worsteds, whipcords, subtle stripes and checks, and winterweight washwear fabrics are all available. . Outerwear jackets range from featherweight washable nylons and poplin blends lined with man-made fleece and pile to great big suedes with self-shearling linings and collars. The "fur-look" is evident in linings as well as in collar treatments. Some of the furs are the real thing such as rac coon and mouton, while oth ers are of the man-made fibers. Car Coats Favored Warm double-breasted mod els and longer lengths in finger-tip and "clicker" jackets figure to be big items. Subur ban and car coats are more popular than ever and regular buttons are used more fre quently than the old toggle and loop closures. Water - repellent hooded parka-style jackets are ready for. the outdoorsman and some of the coats with the new knit collars have sailor-like knit ted toques to match. 'Higher' Style Seen in Tot's Wear Little brother going off to school for his first or second term goes off in "higher" style than in the past! After several years of strict Ivy tailoring, boys' wear man ufacturers are keynoting the brighter colors and more var ried styling for the cookie 'n' milk set. ' In outerwear, this means boldly-striped nylon fleece jackets or dark coats with brilliant linings. Bold stripes, bright colored tweeds and a variety of prints are presented to liven dark Ivy stripes and conservative tweeds. Iridescent fabrics ac cent color. Reds, bright blues, gay paisley prints and other bold notes are being featured. At the top of the list for newness in male fashions this fall is the sweater that's as big, as bulky, and as woolly as you can get it. Warm as a pot-bellied stove on even the coldest days are the full-button bulky knit wool cardigans that button right up to the neck. And a sweater that will keep even your ears warm, is styled with a big shawl collar that snaps up to hug the neck ; m m 1 . &Llm KNIT TEXTURE Liked for its lacy knit texture and long straight lines is cardigan of alpaca yarn, in many fashion colors. Sweater and shirt by Hadley. Short, youthful formals are fall favorites, with baby-doll fullness, windblown panel treatments or balloon shaped skirts to emphasize a leggy look. On the sophisticated side are long-sleeve Directoire dinner dresses, long, slinky sheaths and the bubble silhou ette. Low-button cardigans with deep V openings vie with pretty fill-ins for fall's open 1 pullovers as popular sweater necklines. choices for young boys.
