II you haven't one Of these little i~n-between
dresses, how on earth can you go to bridge parties,
Sunday night slppers, teas. receptions or any other of
the informal afternoon affairs your friends are giving
this season?
OF all the clothes in your wardrobe this winter,
these little in-between dresses stand the chance of
being the prize winners of the clothes marathon most
wardrobes run in a given season.
They are indispensable. They bridge that awful
gap between daytime and evening things. When in
doubt you step up to them, into them and to the
party in them and know you will be dressed perfectly
for the occasion.
They may be made of lace and flat crepe. of crepe,
velvet. %georgette, velveteen or any other fabric that
lends itself to this informal type of costume. They
may have long sleeves or short. be %two-piece or one,
but they must have that nonchalance to their cut
that marks them as informal.

was replete with thrills from the
spectators standpoint. Salinas and

the sluggers had a very mild after

blows IN such a fashion that they
accounted for only two earned
runs. The visitors could get no
more than five hits off Salinas. The

when they counted. however, and
earned three Of their four runs.
Two Of the five hits were triples.
