Of the encampment Miss
Chipman wrote:
Why Camp?
On June 20, 100 girls from
' all over the United States
met at Camp Sky-Wa-Mo,
near Elizabethton, Tenn., for
a Girl Scout All - States en
campment. The purpose was
' to learn more, in certain
fields of scouting, and to take
- back what was learned to
. scouts of the home councils.
Some of the projects were
preparing leaders for the out-of-doors,
primitive camping,
wild life sanctuary, day camp-
- ing and why camp? I worked
with the project of "why
camp?" which is informing
the public about the impor-
. tance of camping. We were
instructed for eight days in
the different public relations
onrf hnw to use them
'. informing the public about
camping.
We then conducted a work-
v,nr in which we taught 20
Girl Scouts of the Tennessee
area what we had learned.
" Two girls teamed to present
different phases of me wuik
shop. My part had to do with
' the introduction to public re
lations, exhibits and photo
graphy. Ruin Stressed
At ah . states there is one
rule for everything. That, "Be
Considerate." For example, if
, norenn wanted to miss a
meal it was alright. But, it
was considerate to ten some
one in order to have her
...rstrhrrt off the meal
count. This rule worked out
' vcrv well.
Th last nicht was one to
remember. Before the last
campfire each person took a
" small tree limb and carved
tho rnd. her name, cuy
and state. These fagots were
placed in the lire mai
- i ...mi nt one end. When
the campfire was over each
person had a different fagot
to take back home with her

All-States to her council. My

Women's News
American Buyers Ignore
Heim's Long
By ALINE MOSBY
United Press International
Paris-UIPD-Designer Jacques
Heim's long-skirt bombshell
is a dud, American buyers
said today.
After Heim opened the
fall-winter Paris fashion
shows Monday, a cross-section
of merchandising experts
from New York indicated al
most complete indifference.
The experts conceded that
the new heavy tweed walk
ing suits and knee-high boots
that are blossoming all over
Paris qould stand a skirt
about an inch or two lower
than usual.
But otherwise, the buyers
said, they have no intention
of stocking department stores
this fall with longer skirts
that will force a worldwide
wardrobe overhaul.
Disapprove
"I didn't like the long
Heim skirts. Women never
will wear them, not this year,
anyway." commented one
New York fabric manufac
turer at a party given by the
Dior Salon for designer Marc
Bohan Monday night.
The head of a leading New
York department store, how
ever, confessed that the real
reason the long skirts will
not be adopted by stores is
not consideration of women,
but the fact that Heim is
"not a pacesetter."
"Balenciaga, G I v e n c hy,
Dior and, to some extent,
Yves St. Laurent set the
style," he explained.
In other words, women's
legs are not out of the woods
until the Givenchy-Balencia-aga-Dior
votes are in within
the week.
But if Heim's long skirts
are thumbed down, the "cov
ered leg" and tweedy look ap
peared here to stay, possibly
because Balenciaga intro
duced it with knee-high
suede boots last winter.
This is
MEDFORD
Skirt Trend
Heim, Jacques Esterel and
Louis Feraud all showed
knee-high leg coverings Mon
day. Heim's were in ocelot,
zebra and other furs or fake
furs, and flat heeled. He
showed them with mid-calf
narrow tweed skirts topped
with waist-length loose jack
ets. His full-skirted and belt
ed tweed coats with fur
edged hoods were accompa
nied by ankle-high bootlets
in matching tweeds.
Feraud's eye-opener was a
red and blue tweed coat with
a collar and half-lining of
fuzzy Mongolian goat fur
dyed red. The mannequin
wore shiny red knee-high
boots.
