Spring fashions to feature ‘all-girl’ look
By GAY PAULEY UPI Women’s Editor NEW YORK (UPI)—Spring fashions are shaping up to an all-girl look, even though it’s a rare collection from New York’s manufacturers of women’s wear without some pants costumes. The coming season shapes up also as a dip into nostalgia, with clothes reminiscent of the 1920's, the 30’s, the 40’s even. Witness the many strands of pearls as accessories which recall the flapper era, the thousands of yards of silk crepes being sewn into the long, slinky and lowcut gowns of the Jean Harlow 30’s, the shirtwaist dresses and the jumpers revived full force for both daytime and evening, reflecting classics from any era including the 40’s. What designer Donald Brooks does with clothes is pretty typical of the major news from the New York showrooms, where the nation’s store buyers are seeing and ordering spring
lines.
Brooks did the timeless costumes for Julie Andrews in her movie role as Gertrude Lawrence, the blazing musical comedy star of the 20’s and He’s pulled another coup in his spring wholesale collectionmanaging to mix in a bit of nostalgia with a totally contemporary look, and ail-girl even with dozens of pants outfits. His evening trousers—or better, call them pajamas and culottes—are flattering to almost any figure, ELKS CLUB TUES. NOV. 12 Traveling Gavel Dinner $1.50 SERVING AT 6:30 P.M. MEETING AT 8:00 P.M.

with their fitted bodices, and flowing skirt lines. Brooks does shirtwaisters for both late day and evening, waistlines belted, sleeves wide and full, cuffed at the wrists. They come in both prints and in soft pastels like palest of blush pink crepes. And ruffles! Layers of them frame the face, trim the wrists, whirl at skirt hems in several short evening dresses in point d’esprit. Brooks is just one of the many designers in the multibillion dollar New York garment industry banking on a feminine look for spring. Karen Stark at Harvey Berin goes so all out for softness of fashion there isn’t a single pair of pants in her new collection. Berin’s evening clothes stress chiffons and they’re beautifully done with yard on yard, layer on layer of the fabric in the skirts combined with jeweled tops cut into deep v necklines. The New York fashion market is on a pastel kick for spring. And what could be more flattering to any age! At Berin, the pastels are “cloud blue”, “ice pink”, and “honey yellow.” Miffed Marquess CAMBRIDGE, England <UPI»—The sixth Marquess of Bristol is a little unhappy. His home, one of the largest country houses in eastern England, is listed in the local phone book trades section as a public

“Any day we are expecting someone to ring and ask for bed and breakfast,” the marquess said. The Post Office, which runs the British telephone system, plans to correct the error in the next edition of the directory.

Nixon believes bombing halt caused near loss
By MERRIMAN SMITH UPI White House Reporter KEY BISCAYNE, Fla. (UPI) -President-elect Richard M. Nixon’s top associates believe he came perilously close to losing because of voter reaction to President Johnson’s bombing halt over North Vietnam five days before the election. The importance attached to the bombing announcement by the president-elect’s associates became evident here today as Nixon and his inner-circle advisers worked in a tropical palm setting to form his administration. The detailed transition work was being done back in Washington according to broad outlines being developed at Nixon’s post election hideaway, a small house rented from Florida’s Sen. George A. Smathers who years ago first interested the Nixons in Key Biscayne as a vacation spot. Much of the conversation between Nixon and his aides here thus far has been of a generally reminiscent nature, looking backward at the recent campaign and conceding they had a close call due to the bombing halt announcement coming when it did. Campaign Advisers Gather Currently the conferences with Nixon involved Lt. Gov. Robert Finch of California, Robert Haldeman, Nixon’s personal chief of staff, and Bryce Harlow, one of Nixon’s chief campaign advisers who was on the White House staff during the Eisenhower administration. John Mitchell, Nixon’s campaign manager, was to join the planning talks. Other advisers here included John Ehrlichman, the campaign tour director, and Dwight Chapin, Nixon’s personal aide. From the talks Thursday there were these developments: — The president-elect hopes to have a long talk soon with Johnson about Vietnam and the peace negotiations. No date has been set for this meeting and apparently the timing is up to Johnson. — Nixon has no intention of traveling outside the country before the inauguration despite a number of rumors to the contrary. He would consider going to Paris or Saigon only on a direct request from Johnson and there is no current sign that such a request is planned.
— Nixon feels that past transition periods from one administration to another have been pushed too rapidly. Therefore, he is determined to move with deliberation, particularly in selecting personnel which at this stage is not his top priority problem. Work on the fiscal 1970 budget comes first. He does not plan to be ready for announcement of Cabinet or agency head appointments before Dec. 5 or later. No Meeting Plans Nixon has no current plans for getting together with his running mate, Gov. Spiro T. Agnew of Maryland, although such a meeting is expected soon but not in Florida. The president-elect also has no present plans for meeting his defeated opponent, Vice President Hubert H. Humphrey. After the 1960 election when Nixon was defeated by the late John F. Kennedy, the winner flew to Key Biscayne to call on Nixon a few days after the voting. — Contrary to some speculation, a top job for Humphrey is not in the cards. There had been speculation that Nixon in his efforts to achieve a new degree of national unity, might name Humphrey U.S. ambassador to the United Nations. Such an appointment was regarded here as not within the realm of remote possibility. — Nixon may streamline his inauguration to eliminate a number of costly and timeconsuming frills. No decisions have been made, but the Nixon planners feel they do not have to be bound by precedent on such matters as an inaugural parade and possibly some of the customarily elaborate social affairs. What disturbed the Nixon forces about the bombing halt was that after Johnson’s announcement Oct. 31, they detected shifts in voter sentiment large enough to cause deep concern. Nixon in his victory statement the day after election, mentioned that there were moments during the campaign when “we had our doubts” about winning. This related almost entirely to what his staff feared would be a massive shift of votes. As the voting turned out, however, the Nixon camp cause for alarm was not as great as they originally feared, although his advisers still believe the announcement cost them a sizeable number of votes.

'UPI* — A super filter built to take salt out of sea water has been utilized by scientists and engineers to recover food solids from whey. Cheese makers in the United States turn out about 22 billion pounds of whey each year. They throw away half of it, creating a monumental disposal problem. University of California and U.S. Department of Agriculture scientists have shown how to extract valuable milk-sugar, proteins, vitamins and minerals from whey by adapting a water purification device.

OIVALS FOR THE HARD LUCK championship of MinnetA sota are Mr. A . who received a bottle of irresistible “Come and Get Me" perfume from his best girl one Monday and was drafted into the Army on Tuesday, and Mr. B., who moved to a suburb of St. Paul and was promptly run over by a Welcome Wagon. • * * Crusty "Jawn” McGraw, long-time manager of the Giants, was the man who brought a third-base umpire into the national pastime. As a cub third sacker on the Baltimore Orioles, he had a habit of hooking his finger in the belt of a runner tagging up to score after a long sacrifice fly, thereby slowing up the runner sufficiently to nail him with a good throw to the plate. Opposing managers protested in vain until one canny opponent secretly unbuckled his belt when he landed on third. When he dashed for home, he left his belt dangling from McGraw’s fingers. The very next afternoon baseball had its first third-base umpire. * * * Words of wisdom from Colonel Corncrib: 1. All this talk about rising prices of meat and groceries is pure propaganda—circulated by people who EAT. 2. It took the pioneers three months to cross the country. With traffic what it is today, that's still good time. 3. If you only could give a good, swift kick to the man most responsible for your troubles, you wouldn’t be able to sit down for a week.
