i fy.. HFASHIONS AND FUTURES The stars of Iones have scored an- other hit, this time in the lones eighth an' nual style show given on October 28, 1949, at the Fair Store Auditorium. Every year Iones has a fashion show--not only to display the glamourous Iones models and gorgeous clothes, but also to dem- onstrate the dramatic ability of the lonesites, Fashions and Futures, the name of the show, got under Way with a musical directed by Miss Veronica Hyde. Songs and dances added a special touch to the fashion show that followed. A skit rep- resented sorne high school students thinking of what they would like to be in the future and, at the end of the show, seeing their dreams come true. Next came the main event of the evening: the lones girls modeling fash- ions from the Fair, Under the direction of Miss Foley, the girls were able to show oft the clothes to good advantage, par- ticularly since each student at lones receives special posture training in her regular gym classes. We owe our appreciation and grati- tude to Miss Gifford and her staff of the Fair Store, also to Miss O'Brien, Miss Fo- ley, Miss Gorman, Miss Murphy, Miss Hyde, and Miss White, who all helped make the evening the big success it was.
