Fashion Editors, Up In The Air, See Latest Fashions In Wool By DOROTHY ROE Associated Press Women's Editor. she is vfw vnnw APiirQctnn ,...-icart, and seat bells, please, and observe the no-smoking signs. We're off on a modern fashion show, aboard a jet plane 30,000 feet up. The passengers two planeloads of them are 200 members of the national fashion press, in New York this week for the spring howings of New York designers. They've already covered eight fashion shows during the day. Now they're embarking to see an other, this time all wool and all up in the air. The fashions are superb, the models tired but beautiful. But let's take a look at the passengers. There's Betty Milburn. women's editor of the Tucson Daily Citizen, who would rather fly her own plane than eat, or even dance. She and her husband, who works on the same paper, want a plane they can park in their back yard. Then there's Ivy Coffee, wom en's editor of the Oklahoman and Times, Oklahoma City, a tall. breezy blonde who thinks there's no business like newspaper busi ness, and who runs a staff of nine, turning out a women's sec- tion of three to four pages daily. making over the women s pages lor each of the paper s five edi tions. Today's newswomcn take to the air in more ways than one. For instance, there s Mildred Alexan der, news director of TV and ra dio station WTAR in Norfolk, Va.( and former president of the Vir ginia Assn. of Associated Press Broadcasters. Her medium is the air instead of the printed page, but newspaperwoman at her audience would challenge the circulation of some of the country s biggest papers Edrie Van Dore ,is assistant managing editor and women's ed itor of the Philadelphia Inquirer. She heads a staff of eight women and one man, works about 18 hours a day, travels to Europe, South America or the West Coast as casually as most people take a Sunday drive; and enjoys every minute of It. Mcta Blackwll, Sunday editor of the San Bernardino, (Calif.) Sun-Telegram, has held practical ly every ion on the paper, includ ing those of city editor and wom en's editor. Now the paper has a man editing the women s pages, but Mcta continues to cover fash ionsin New York, Los Angeles, Paris or wherever they may be Betty Peach does fashions and features for the San Diego Eve ning Tribune, and also gets around. She was in New Guinea with the Red Cross during World War II, refers to her husband simply as "Peach," has a home, a yard and a garden in San Diego and thinks life is simply peachy. Those are a few of the modern feminine press. They've changed a lot since the days of Nellie Bly.

Editor NEW YORK (CPU- The suit. basic in a woman's wardrobe, gets down to the basics this spring. fits the figure. The relaxed look is on iis way out," said designer Harry Frech- tel. "This spring marks the begin ning of the return to the fitted suit." Several -other designers also are returning each collection shown to visiting fashion editors this week included at least a couple of suits with slim skirt and jacket hugging the waistline and upper hipbone. The shows are held semi-annually by the couture group of the New York Dress In stitute. However, there is no return to Ihe broad, padded shoulders that went with fitted suits of the 1930 s and early '40 s. Rounded, soft shoulders are the rule. Frechtel suits have perfectly smooth shoulders: he cuts sleeve and bodice of the jacket all in one piece. Sleeves of suits in most collec tions are "bracelet length," bar ing wrists for those women who like bangles. But Monte-Sano and Pruzan provides the breeziest sleeve of all: the firm bares arms in both coats and suits to above the elbow. Most of the new suits are single-breasted, but Ben Zuckerman showed some double-b r e a s t e ri jackets closed with enormous but tons in black or a smoky pearl shade. Fitted jackets are ol two main types one reaching three to four inches below the waist; the oiher stopping right at the waist. Some of the "relaxed" or looser fitting jackets do hug the figure in one spot the hipbone. But leave the waistline undefined. In the "relaxed" category, the number one jacket is Ihe cardi gan type, usually collarless and worn casually unbuttoned. Davi- dow shows a group in small Scot tish checks worn with small, fringed stole around the neck. skirts are cut pencil-slim in most collections, but a few design ers toss in a few suits with pleat ed skirts Ben Reig is one. Frechtel eases skirt fit with scattered gathers across the tummy. Watch also (or bold colors to brighten the suit picture. Along with standard gray and navy, there are flamingo and watermel on pink, lemon yellow and deep lilac. 3Bjg8 Make Zenith Quality Your BUY WORD! It Gives You MORE!
