Washington Fashions
BY Wilma La Vile

Your mother would have
called this a coat-suit not so
very long ago; and at that
time it was considered a style
for grownups alone. Young
girls couldn't think of wearing
a coat suit, it simply wasn't
done! Young girls would be
out of luck if they were not
permitted to wear our present
day "coat-suits," jacket suits
as they are known this spring.
They are fashioned with the
same maddening charm that
little girls are made Of, like
them, an indescribable mix
ture Of sophistication and
naivette.
"ChongelIa" Again
We thought Of lovely things,
of buds and spring, when we
saw this suit today. OF how
it would look for the Easter
holidays and for days in town.
Like many other fine gar
ments, it is made of "chon-
CELIA" in a new color, sandal
TAM" which is very practical
since it Is a tone darker than
beige. The big cape collar is
noteworthy; it extends to the
belt in front and gives a lovely
shoulder line. Just above the
hip line intricate seaming
draws an exquisite pattern.
This is the only trimming on
the entire suit. The sleeves fit
close at the wrist to balance
the cape collar and the skirt
has just a suggestion of full
ness.
For Any Youthful Figure
Color contrast possibilities in
accessories are great, for many
colors blend with sandal tan.
Several different groups Of &C
cessories could be used. The
suits simplicity of line and
perfection of tailoring makes
it the epitone Of our new fash
ions, and becoming to any
youthful figure.

Grace and Skill

"There is an element Of
grace and skill in clever stick
handling which makes the
game quite as interesting to
watch as to play.
IL am of the opinion that n
number of our Washington
colleges have an inadequate
spring sports program.
Lacrosse, though it seems In
vOlved, is a comparatively easy
game to learn. Scheduling
games would be simple. for this
section Of the country is the hot
bed of lacrosse interest.
"It is my further thought that
the Washington colleges would
profit financially and yet aid
towards an adequate spring pro.
gram. 1t could be worked out
eirSt on an intramural basis and
gradually raised to the dignity of
intercollegiate competition, If
it made a hit with the students,
as it. doubtless would do"
