of several hundred words long thai
Lou Nova is putting into print in the
Golfers magazine of Dec. 20.
Nova says he's ready to take over
the heavyweight championship from
Louis. He says he's right now and
he can do the job.

alone three times, because the first

That's right smart talking, fellow.

Don't Try to Copy-Use Charts
 Discouraged so soon! Yet this would-be fashion artist has. a real talent to develop.
 Like SO many girls who long fol a well-paying career in art, she must do her studying at home. But she doesn't quite know how to go about it.
 This is where charts and dia- grams, professional instruction can help you. With their aid you soon learn to draw really graceful, we'll proportioned faces and figures.
 For the glamorous, GarboeSque face of the fashion ads, draw an oval and divide it in half, horizon- tally. This is the eye line. Now divide the lower half into five equal parts and place the nose line two fifths down from the eye line, the mouth three fifthS down.
 Once you have these main pro- portions, the finishing touches come easier-shaping the eye and mouth, drawing the soft contours of the hair.
 And the figure? You follow the same principle of dividing up, as our 24-page fashion art course shows you. Teaches you perspec- tive, how to "block in, post an6 dress figures, work in line and wash and draw fabric textures such as velvet, jersey, net, chiffon, also furs

-STYLE CHATS -- 2 Simplicity
 Is British Style Motif:
By ROSETTE HARGROVE

NEA Service Staff Correspondent
 London - Mayfair has more sor less moved out to its Luxurious country residences, but 1t still main tairlS its traditions of elegance London's exclusive dress making salons. are almost as busy as they were in peacetime, while the 'a'blitz' has apparently made little or no difference to the even tenor of their I lives. With very little delay on their original schedules, Britain'S leading fashion czars have produced mid season collections Though primarily intended for the American niarketS they also include models which will appeal to Mrs Well to z do z at home. <, 15., .Ff Mrs. Well-to-do, by the. way, has discarded the more extravagaut formal models for what she likes to call a simple" dinner dress, with vague idea perhaps that this might be in the interest of democracy.ss COSTLY, BUT IN
 KEEPING WITH TIMES
 This dinner dress costs pretty nearly as much as the erstWhile evening gown, but is considered by everyone as generally more in keep ing with the situation. as .gss. Simplicity is the keynote, but subtle touches of embroidery and other decorative effects, coupled with the high price of luxury fab- rics, often find the said dinner dress with price tag ranging from one hundred to one hundred and fifty dollars.
 Tweeds and wooIens have gone to town in a big way. Both Molyneux and Hartnell use these fabrics un- restrainedly in their latest creations. Molyneux stresses belted woolen jersey jumper blouses. These are worn with skirts cut lightly. on the bias. Some go under topcoatS, others are completed by straight, hip length jackets. Marina, Duchess of Kent, wores just such an outfit at a recent official appearance. Hers was in black wool with deep beaver cuffs and scarf. asS
 EVENING GOWNS "
 ARE SCARCE }.
 There are few evening gowns, but a good selection of the now ubiquitous dinner dress, long or short-sleeved. Of particular interest is the new sleeve Molyrlenx launches for both formal afternoon and eyen- ing wear. This is cut in a small balloon at the shoulder, falling over skin-tight lower sleeves.
 The use of. wool for day and evening provides Norman Hartnell with his theme,. while he also erla- phasizes the fact that embroidery on formal gowns can take the place of jewels which few women are wearing today in England.
 The collection opens with Q Nrotip of tailored models in plain and patterned tweeds, the latter mainly In the crowsfoot variety. Jackets are squared. slightly longer and aFe squared. sliehtly longer and aro neatly iitted, especially around the wai1t.

 FOUR BASIC '
 RULES FOR MODELS
 The Conover nodels--all picked for their brains as well as their beauty-are given four rules to fol- low the day they are accepted for registration.
 K l. Get a little more sleep each night than you think you need. Otherwise, you cannot expect to stay young and fresh-looking.
 2. When you are nervous in front of the camera, talk to the photog- rapller about anything in the world except yourself. (Yon can gain quite a lot of poise by remembering that the pllotographer iss likely to be more nervous than you. He's as anxious to make a good picture as you are to strike a good pose)
 8. Be yourself. etAnd be yourself all the time. Posing as something you are not,iw will get you exactly mo- where in the model business.
 4. Learn all there is to know About the art Of makeup. Go to an expert and let him teach. you what cosmetics to use and how to Ret, them on. Don't arbitrarily de- Side that [ less attractive feature must be concealed. It's possible that yongl get farther by playing 1t up instead of hiding, 1t.
