THE CLOTHES CLINICS at |

Ayres’ tnis year are taking the place of the big back-ta-college fashion shows held in former years when there was a less stringent, more happy-go-lucky way of life. The first two, held yesterday afternoon and evening, were devoted to the “Mix "Em and Match Em” theme. The 12 members of

| Ayres’ college fashion board pre- | sented a few classic suits, jackets,

skirts, sweaters and blouses that could be switched about to offer almost endless variety within the limited wardrobe. The next in the series of clinics will be at 2:30 p. m. Thursday on the store's third floor where the “college depot” has been set up and the series will continue through Aug. 21. Yesterday the girls mounted a bright yellow luggage truck to

parade a group of campus classics

—vivid corduroys, the gray flannel “super stand-bys,” the beloved cashmeres in bright red andy green and plaids of the glen and clan persuasion. ” » =» WITH THE styles were shown a variety of dickeys, vestees, blouses, sweaters and accessories that will enable them to lead a double—or even a triple—life. Among these were casual hats (one like the topper a fisherman wears), beanies, calots, short strands of pearls, Jong strands of pearls, voluminous handbags, trim belts, colorful scarves, gloves. Mrs. Elizabeth Patrick, Ayres’ stylist who is acting as “emcee” for the clinics, pointed out that college girls are doing some intelligent wardrobe planning this year, beginning with the clothes they already have and adding wisely chosen styles “so that every cent of money spent really means something.” Emphasis in the fashions shown

| was on “timeless” styling or, as

Mrs. Patrick says, “on the things that will be good fashion as long as there is a piece of the fabric left.” * ® =

TO HELP THE college girl and the career girl too, the store has lined up 1! students who with Ayres’ own college representative, Jody Mick, are all set to lend a hand with rapid fire clothes selection, Given only brief notice of the the girls will gather a group of styles from which purchases can be made in jig time.
