New York High fashion grows top-heavy for spring,
1960, with exaggerated sleeve lines, sloping shoulders and
tiny midriffs giving a girl plenty of room at the top. Mollie
Parnis designed this sheer white wool with a graceful circular
skirt. A narrow black calf belt ties at the waist for accent.

Coat, Tunic Dresses Good
Los Angeles - Here comes
Spring, 1960, and with it a
strong emphasis on dresses
that interpret the clean, un
cluttered, youthful American
Look. A softly tailored look
even in quite feminine styles
is noted. The coat dress ap
pears in many different ver
sions; tunics are important,
newest extending to within
three or four inches of the
hemline of the dress; the
shirt frock wil continue to be
a favorite. Dresses -with
matching jackets or coats will
be especially popular for the
new season.
The delightful sheer, crease
resisting, smoothly crisp wor
steds lend themselves both to
the tailored trend and the
many moods of the weather,
cozy under coats, just right
without wraps on those balmy,
sunny days of early Spring.
Crepes have staged an al
most dramatic return in all
sorts of surfaces from semi
smooth to crinkly and peb
bled. Another of the worsted
favorites back, after quite an
absence is gabardine, perfect
for the tailored feeling, non
wrinkling, fine for travel,
and just . about as long-lived
as an armadillo. Mens wear
worsteds and flannels are to
be noted in the new trend to
crisper fabrics. Soft - hand
woolens are considerably in
evidence, also, among them
the soft, sheer weight tweeds;
light weight sheers with a
fine frosting of boucle or mo
hair loops, or a bit of fur con
tent. Sleeve Detail
Sleeves lend a lot of new
ness to Spring dresses and
costumes with emphasis on
shoulder width achieved
through sleeve detail. There
are batwing and semi-dolman
cuts with underarm fullness,
kimono styles, funnel shapes,
belled types, even capelike
widths in dressier fashions.
Waistlines take a stand, but
not a single one - some dress
es have wide, fitted inserts
which may be beltless or cir
cled with wide to very nar
row belts; there . seems a bit
of a trend to lower waistlines
again: bodices bloused out
over fitted waistlines show up
both on dresses and jackets
posed over them. The slim
line dress continues well in
the lead, but there is a gen
eral easing away from the
form -fitting sheath. Pleated
skirts are increasing in im
portance, notably firmly
creased in keeping with the
more tailored trend. The so-
called Chanel look continues,

Short Order Supplies
When you have only min
utes to organize a nourishing
meal for the family, look to
your canned soup shelf. There
are so many kinds to fill out
the menu and the flavors
combine so well with many

you scramble eggs and serve
them with toast and a heal

Decorating With Fruit
A fruit bowl or a bounti
ful basket placed in a spot
where it's easy for the fam
ily to help themselves is a
decorative as well as a health
ful element to the home. Mar
garet Spader, home service
consultant of the Gas Appli

tion, says fresh fruit is an
ideal snack for weight watch
ers and persistent nibblers.
Frosty grapes, red and gold

of citrus fruit and the grace
ful form of bananas add col
or, aroma and hospitality to
the home.

Medford Couple
Spend Vacation
With SonWife
Mr. and Mrs. Curtis L. Hop
kins, Old Military road, Cen
tral Point, returned last week
after a visit with their son,
M a j. Curtis E. Hopkins,
USAF, at Minot, N.D.
Mr. and Mrs. Hopkins
drove to Portland where they
took the Great Northern rail
road Empire Builder through
Glacier National park to Mi
not. At Minot' they were met
by Major Hopkins and his
wife Betty Jane, who is for
merly of Medford, and their
children Cherry, 13, Curt in,
9, Janelle, 5, and Steven, 6
months.
Major Hopkins is squadron
operations officer at the Mi
not air base. He is responsible
for training crews in the jet
refueling squadron. He is a
Medford high school gradu
ate. 1
While visiting in Minot the
Hopkins saw one of the huge
refueling aircraft and attend
ed' a squadron New Year's
Eve party.
The Major , and his family
live in Minot and the major
commutes to the field 15
miles away. Housing has been
completed for the enlisted
men at the newly expanded
Air Force base but not for
the officers, Mrs. Hopkins
said.
While visiting Minot the
Hopkins experienced temper
atures ranging from 20 de
grees above zero to 25 degrees
below zero and winds one
week blew from 50 to 75
miles an hour. Citizens of Mi
not, who are mainly of Swe
dish, Norwegian and German
origin, were generous with
their Christmas cookies, Mrs.
Hopkins said. These are made
on special Sandmavian cook
ie irons.

white and pale beige combina

FOOD WARMER
An automatic baby food
warmer is designed to make
feeding time easier and more
pleasant for both mother and
baby. The warmer holds a
three-course meal and keeps
it hot through an entire meal.
The plastic dish is insulated
so the entire outside never
gets hot, the electric cord is
insulated, and the dish can be
immersed for washing. A light
on the cord shows when food
has reached the desired tem
perature. ' f-
PRE-COOKED CEREAL

keys were an important food
source for American Indians
long before European settlers
arrived. But today's turkeys
are far different than their
ancestors. The early birds

of careful cooking to make
the meat tender enough to
eat.
skirts but Seventh Avenue
manufacturers skip the Paris
hobble of last season, hem
lines remain the same as last
spring, shoulders remain
rounded but sleeves never
have been bigger or breezier.
Sleeves are caped. kimo
noed, cut waistline deep, dol
maned, fluted, funneled and
flared. And many of them on
suits and coats are chopped
off at the elbow and above.
The wide, airy sleeve treat
ments so dominate the New
York collections being shown
this week to some 250 visiting
reporters that Jane Arend,
showroom director for Lord's
Sportswear, composed this
bit of doggerel:
Styles in Change
"Last season, my collars
concerned me;
"Before that, I sagged in
the sack;
"Between these, I floated
winged panels
"With streamers from both
side and back.
"Now, these things are no
longer vital,
"It's almost too much to be
lieve "That all of the chic that I
constantly seek
"Now depends on the size
of my sleeve."
Helping to create the top
heavy look also are bloused
effects in suits, dresses and
costumes.
The New York couture
group, with 55 designer mem
bers and auxiliary groups,
sponsors the semi - annual
shows. The group's "watch
for" roundup suggested the
woman shopper watch for
these other major trends for
spring:
- A tendency to longer
jackets in suits, although
there still will be plenty of
latitude in choice. Some suit
jackets will come well below
the hipbone for a tunic ef
fect. An increase in the num
ber of belted and collarless
suits and the continued popu
larity for the semi-fitted suit
jacket.
Fitted Capes
- In coats, the cape back
with flat front is a new sil
houette; fitted, semi-fitted and
belted; coats continue, and
there are many of the double
breasted, coachman types.
-In dresses, slim silhouettes
dominate for daytime, but
there is a resurgence of the
full-cut dirndl of another day.
-The coat dress is a favorite
spring costume; runner - up,
the full length coat and dress
of matching silk or silk and
wool. .
- Double skirts with the
tunic almost as narrow as the
underl a y e r; oriental over-
skirts slashed at the sides;
skirts box, knife and accor
dion-pleated.
Drastically low-cut strap
less evening dresses dominate,
and there are sleeveless day
time and sports dresses
throughout the collections.
The slender evening dress and
the full-skirted, short formal
share honors for dressy occa
sions. - In fabrics, chiffon runs
throughout the collections and
designers talk in terms of
vardaee in a skirt: one manu
facturer showed an afternoon
chiffon using 16 yards of ma
terial. Mesh and knit-like tex
tures are important; silk
prints abound in dresses ana
costumes.
- Grey looms large as a
soring basic shade: the vari
ous tones of beige to bone
are popular; strong violet is
a favorite with many design-1
ers! and white is used for
coats and suits as well as
dresses. '
