News s Events view. He is president of tne Murray Hamburger company, a firm that has been gowning brides across the nation for a quarter of a century. He said the opaque fabrics -taffeta and satin - give the June bride a look that sets her apart from the high school graduates all decked out in white net gowns. "Until recently," he said, "the summer bride was forced to wear sheer fabrics because of the weather. But now so many receptions are held in air-conditioned places that the bride doesn't have to care about wearing a heavy fab ric." The trend to hard fabrics was hailed by the fashion ex pert. "Satin and taffeta," he said, "give the bride the tra ditional queenly look." Gowns of hard and soft fab rics are trimmed lavishly with laces, heirloom lace be ing the most popular. The shorter veil also was cited by Miss Ruth English, manager of the Rosette Pen nington Bride's Shop in Man hattan. Coronets, crowns and caplets hold the veils in place. Miss English also said that she can't rccail a year during which bridal parties were so large. Many brides are having 10 to 14 in their wedding parties. o The women in the parties frequently are getting decked out in street-length sheaths, chiffons in off-beat colors. Miss English said. There isn't so much of the sky-blue and baby pink as there was in years past, she said. The split-personality skirt on some bridal gowns is ac complished by the redingote. The removable over-skirt -with a slight train - frequent ly is seen over a dross that can be worn sans second skirt later. Miss English said necklines are "scoopy." That is they reach from shoulder to shoulder with plenty of bare ness. "TUs is what the new brides want and this is what they are getting," she said. 4,000 Restaurants Prove it Every Day REGULAR GRIND BoydV Flavor Stands JJpJ c 1 Doering, chairman of vol- Easy Pack Clothing Said Useful By PATRICIA WIGGINS United Press International Washington Clothing must be simple and easy to pack for the trim and busy assistant chairman of the Republican National Committee. Mrs. Clare B. Williams, In charge of the party's women's activities and almost as often out of Washington as in, says that her first concern in buy ing clothes are fabrics that fight wrinkles. She finds syn thetics and pure silk prefer able. Another concern Is to find drosses to provide coverage at drafty head tables. Sleeves of Some kind are a must, even on the dressiest occasions. As she puts it, "you can't look well groomed if you're shiver ing." Mrs. Williams gives one ex ample of a morning-afternoon-evening outfit she's found that answers most of her problems. It's a muted print wool and dacron mixture made into a cocktail sheath with small cap sleeves under a matching jacket. With the jacket on, she's set for a TV annearance or iin afternoon tea. Minus the jacket, the dress is appropri ate one for an appearance at an evening dinner meeting. The contents of Mrs. Wil liams' suitcase on one 2'4 week trip, with a temperature range from the 30's in Ore gon to 100 in California's Im perial Valley, show how her wardrobe ogranization pays off. She managed with one suit and three dresses all in brown tones which meant only one hat and a minimum of shoe and handbag changes. On a subsequent trip, while the browns were at the clean ers, Mrs. Williams switched to a black and blue wardrobe blue toned dresses with black asscssories. She always carries a couple of boxes of jewelry to add variety to the minimum of clotes. Varying pearl arrange ments play a big part of her accessories.
