She divided general art in two classes, fine arts, under which are painting, archi tecture, and sculpture; and commercial art, which in cludes design, color, and or ganization. She spoke of painting under fine arts, being repre sentational, which truly rep resents the picture and is pic torially exacting. Abstract art deals with the character of what the artist is painting, she explained. "Modern art" is a term often referring to ab stract art, the speaker said. It is not modern, ana is louna more in history than any other art. she added. She de scribed the Egyptian style, Greek style, and early Chris tian. Urges Open Mind In non-representational art ihrre are no recognizable forms, Mrs. Trowbridge said. "You are the viewer, partici pant and interpreter," she said, and cautioned people to approach this form of art with an open mind, and make an effort to see the warmth in each picture.

New Ideas Are Noted For Suits Paris -n PI-Pierre Balmain, whose clothes would make al most any woman look like a lady, hiked up the waistline and widened shoulders in his spring styles today. Balmain, 46, a polo player and student of architecture before he took up designing, makes clothes so elegant and expensive that women plan to hold onto them for years. Therefore changes in style at his salon near the George V Hotel are slow and easy. His skirts still just barely cover the knee in his spring collection, his shoulder is wider, but round and soft through cut, not from pad ding. This shoulder was notice able, to the chattering fashion reporters, and Balmain friends at the showing when, for example, a model paraded in a brown-and-white tweed straight coat, casually slung over a while jersey sleeveless sheath dress, its top slightly blouscd. Balmain also firmly belted his spring clothes. But while avanl garde designer Pierre Cardin boldly belted suit jackets, Balmain's bells dis creetly were hidden. His straight suit skirts, not the jackets, had belts, of the suii fabric or of leather. This elim inated that half-finished look that keeps some women from taking off a suit jacket. Balmain's suit blouses there fore were tucked inside the skirts, and usually sleeveless with soft long bows at the neck. Unlike other Paris de signer?, Balmain's jacket lin ings did not match his blouses of printed silk and chiffon. His suit jackets, ending just below the waistline, were loose at the waist and had medium-sized collars and small lapels. Each suit jacket had a large button or bow fastening right below the bustline for a high-waisted effect. The crowd admired his col or combinations, such as turquoise heavy silk suit with an olive green sleeveless linen blouse trimmed with tur quoise. Secrefs of Sewing With Plaids Tod In OSU Bulletin Corvallis-Perfectly matched plaids can make a 30 ccnt-a-yard gingham dress look ex pensive, while improperly joined plaids can ruin the ef fect of the most expensive fabric. Secrets of sewing with plaids arc told in a new, il iuslraled bulletin available from Oregon State University extension service. Size of the plaid makes a difference in the pattern the home seamstress should choose. For example, a large plaid looks best When a pat tern with few scams is used. The garment will be easier to cut and sew, and will take less material. Patterns with yokes and more scams, on the other hand, can be used for small plaids. The two types of plaids -even and uneven - present different problems. The bulle tin explains how to tell the types apart and pictures spe cific ways to work with each. Among general suggestions listed for cutting plaid fabrics are: Center a vertical plaid line at the body center. Place pattern pieces so one main horizontal block of plaid is at, or near the shoulder. Match front and back along horizontal lines of plaid. If blouse has an underarm dart, match plaid above the dart. This makes it possible when cutting set-in sleeves to have the horizontal lines con tinuous around the body. To piece a piaid, match and join along one line of a design and not through the middle of a color. Oregon residents may ob tain free copies of the bulle tin "Planning Plaids" from county extension offices or from OSU bulletin clerk, Corvallls.
