NOVEMBER 1938 In A Manner Manly (Continued from page 7) deserve some attention. Choose a dark color suit in blue, oxford grey, or brown in chalk stripe or multi- colored stripes. Ray Beer ' s has some nifties in several lines. The white separate starched collar in the Kent style with a conservative tie will mark you as a man with definite taste. It is no foolish bet that double breasted chalk stripe and three button herringbone models are going to be seen at the smart gathering places this season. About midway between campus and sports clothes comes the holiday or leisure outfit. It should be of a soft fabric and loose-fitting for driving and slouching in easy chairs and general comfort. Rough tweed, homespun, and cheviot that are absolutely correct without a sharp crease are right at home in this class. Fancy backs are taboo save for bi-swing bellows for free arm movement. If the Indian summer pre- vails, gaberdines and flannels fit in, especially for town and country. Appropriate shirts would be the oxford cloth with a button-down collar, in white, blue, tan, grey, or green; striped or knit tie to match; country brogue with those policeman soles; slouch hat in deep brown color as shown at Ray Beer ' s a briar and a friend complete the leisure ensemble. For formal occasion it is essential to be dressed pro- perly. Tails are fast gaining in popularity with every function. The new color in formal wear, as shown at Ober ' s, is midnight blue that looks blacker than black under those Union ballroom lights. A double- breasted tuxedo coat and vest can interchange with your tail coat when the occasion is not so formal. Tail coats are long and flowing, extending about one and one-half inches below the knee. For tails the shirt is of plain or birds-eye pique with two studs, Serano white tie, moonstone or pearl studs with plain or fine gold edging. With tuxedo the Shoreham type shirt with collar-attached is increasing in popularity. The black tie, bat shape preferable, is the most popluar with the young generation.

THE JAYHAWKER Girls ' wrice-ups by Annette Re: ' d HELEN HEARD likes the man with a mind of his own and plenty of personality. Prefers blonds not over six feet tall and someone who knows the meaning of rhythm. A car is not essential, but it helps. With her as with almost all girls, the big question is: Can he show me a good time? JEANNE WILKINS prefers the man who is a lot of fun and a sporty dresser. If he gets around that helps and must be a good dancer. To be serious at times is permis- sable, but not often. Jeanne says average mentality will do, for, I want to be able to keep up with him. DICK AMERINE doesn ' t like drinkers but will not condemn the smoker. Prefers an intelligent girl who can talk athletics. Doesn ' t demand the home-type or a good cook. Dislikes the girl who wants a fashion plate and intensely the Josephine Colleges and sophisticates. Likes cute trim figures and the sincere, one-man girl. Boys ' write-ups by Maurice Jackson HUGH T. JONES prefers the sweet, refined girl who doesn ' t require a gala party to admit a good time. Indifferent to blonde or brunette, but appreciates natural beauty and smart tailoring (sans bulges). Make- up and tobacco should be at minimum to rate her with. Likes her tenacious but unpredictable, which spells umph.

Some of us put our hair up and left it up, but many more put it up and quickly took it down. However, this 1900 hair mode brought out all sorts of frou-frou of that period: tiny hats with ab- surd pom-poms and feathers, leg- o-mutton sleeves, formals with voluminous hoop-skirts and dar- ingly bared shoulders, muffs day and night opera gloves that stretch almost up to the shoulder, high boots and spats, chains and chatelaines, ponderous jewelry, and other fashions popular in the days of our mothers and grandmothers. As Vogue puts it, She takes ' this ' from her mother and ' that ' from her grandmother, but under all the frivolities are clothes un- mistakably today ' s. Fashions this year are more feminine than they have been in years. Do they appeal to men? Of course, they do. They adore the extremely feminine clothes that remind them of their mothers. Basically simple is the silhouette. The universal one in sport clothes is the snug jacket with a short, full, bunchy s k i r t either pleated, gathered or circular. If the skirt is circular and the waist is neat, the outfit achieves the skater ' s silhou- ette so desirable this year. There is noticeably more motion in all clothes, more amplitude and ease. A lumber jacket look is also found in many suits, dresses, and furs. And skirts are also a wee bit shorter. If your skirt is longer than fifteen inches from the floor, you may know that Paris disapproves. Most interesting and spectacular note of the fashion season is JEWELRY not dainty, fragile ornaments, but heavy necklaces that choke the throat and crusty
