Color in mems clothing is not new nor
an abrupt departure from convention,
for color has been with us some time
witness tweeds and rough fabrics. But
this Spring men have really awakened to
a consciousness of c0orful attire.
Young men, and older men, too, demand
more color but not gaudy, rainbow
effects to make them unduly conspicu-
GUS. This year new lighter shades of
blues and greens, tans and grays, mix
lures, combinations, are used skillfully,
with a result that is gloriously masculine.

Mr.. Pridgin aduce 10 que essen

la emOci6n estriba en- observar

lidias de gallos y las ~apuestas
van tan juntas como un polio re-
lleno con su relleno.
La attraction de las peleas de

Pridgin, "...desea alcanzar csc

de la misma, y valor para dar

hacerlo bellamente".
En- realidad, las lidias de ga
