No Unanimity Of Price In U. N. Hats

The United States citizen also ean fit a hat into a budget, but the and the Russians have got to keep their heads warm the one-world headgear MilMinty has turned out in a of fashions for peace. hat, the firm points out, is n historic headgear of fhe ation it represents. Some are precoples of millinery, mostly male, in old prints. Others are free adaptations of old themes. The Iranian model has a black felt crown embellished with a twist of blue jersey—after an Assyrian print, which Minty trots out to prove the point. It costs $25.50, least of any of the hats so far com-

United States model runs it second at $2750. That's ed after an Indian bonnet with just a suggestion of the Purifan in its wide at the top fold of felt. A pair of gilt feathers through the back takes care the redskin influence. Orie of the two Polish hats carries the highest price tag of the group

the Ninth Century. It has a medium high golden velveteen crown and Pair of minks worked into its rolled brim. The front has a gold and Jewel ornament.

Spires That Inspire e Headpieces Minty says his research disclosed that most nations have copied their typical headgear from their roof tops. The medieval Hennin, he claims, represents the flowering of Christianity in its cathedral spire. The Chinese, the Moslems and the Malayans also have used church roofs for shape. The frilled Dutch bonnet just matches a frilled Dutch zoof, he finds. Not all his hats have architectural models, however. The Australian bat—a $668 number of felt with ostrich and maribou and a pair of ear-pieces—~comes from the downunder aborigine. The Mexican, .a $55 Persian lamb peaked helmet, is patterned after a 16th Century Aztec warrior bonnet. Minty has dug up so many prints he’ll probably be making international- headgear for years. One thing, he says, it shows women they can dream their own ideas very

easily.

Sweets for Summer Sweets are what make a fashionable summer potato course, when they're quick-canned yam sweet potatoes from Louisiana. Simply heat in sirup from the can—and serve.

They're longer. They put the accent: on the’ small-waisted, Tound-hipped styles that all the forecasters are talking about. Among the regular budget-shop favorites, such as Sheila Lynn models, will be found an assorte ment of David Westheim styles which *got their inspiration from hristian Dior. He's the fair-haired boy this season among the Parisian designérs—the one most applauded by the fashion reporters at the Paris openings — and the one from whom film star Rita Hayworth recently bought 12 dresses for her personal wardrobe.

A multitude of oddments will fit into these simulated python boxes (made by Loyal Leather Products) which they're selling at Wasson's, Coeds adopted them this spring and now shoppers and housewives are finding them handy as all get-out. Business girls use them to pack a change of scenery (that quick change before a 5 p. m. date) and vacationists are going for them in a big way. For big girls, there's a 14-inch size. Little girls who want to imitate mama pick a pint-sized 10-inch style.

The preity plaid cotton was created by Mr. Berger especially for the college girl and serves as an ideal dormitory lounging costume as well as a sleeping garment. Below-the-knee length makes it super for hot weather sleeping.

Beauties’ Hints—

Old Jewels— New Glamour

By ALICIA HART * NEA Staff Writer YOU CAN build up your glamour for a romantic evening party by mixing your imagination in with the jewelry that you wear. Your keepsake box may yield old jewelry that lends itself to new uses

ample, can be given a high style whirl by. filling in the decollete with a jewelry bib. Start with a choker, and ex-

tend the line with longer neck- | turquoise

laces. Pearls, coral, and jet strands and gold chains are all good mixers for your “bib.”

» ” NEW TWIST For an old charm collection is to attach single charms at spaced intervals to a pearl necklace. Use to pretty up a low-cut neckline. A peasant blouse can be given glamour by lacing the bodice up with a gold chain instead of a ribbon. You can put sparkle into a party-going coiffure by encircling topknot curls with a gold bracelet or twisted gold chain. A twostrand pearl necklace becomes a new kind of “Alice-in-Wonder-land” headband for a sleek hairdo.

POLIS

BLACK CAN BE COOL LOOKING—One of the old saws-that's been laid to rest in recent summers is that one, "black looks so hot." In the right fabric and style, black is as cool looking as a tall, frosted drink. Take a look at this style by David Westheim. It's of Cohama's P. M, crepe, with tucked bloused top, and easy fullness falling from a rounded hipline. The long sleeves push up to bracelet length. (Ayres'.)

Air Conditioning Will Bring Better Nylons

NEW YORK, June 23. — If you have ever wondered why .nylon stockings lacked uniform quality, blame it on the weather, but stop worrying about it. Modern science has discovered why lengths were often irregular and what caused so-called “rings,” and has learned how to do something about it, according to Roy E. Tilles, president of Gotham Hosiery Co. His company has just signed the largest single contract for complete air conditioning in the history of the textile industry, a $500,000 program for two mills in Philadelphia and one in Ft. Wayne, Ind. “Uncontrolled moisture and temperature are back of the troubles encountered in making the modern full-fashioned nylon stockings,” Mr. Tilles revealed. “The nylon yarn used today is finer than ever. The new hosiery machines work at tolerances so close that a few degrees additional temperature causes all sorts of operating troubles. “ A conditioned: research laboratories in Philadelphia proved that air cons ditioning was the answer. It will permit the use of finer yarns, which can be knitted on high-speed ma-

chines and which will be uniform in quality.”
