Popularity of Black
Lingerie Increases

1t is with increasing enthusiasm
that women are asking for lingerie
in all black. The trimmed cos
tune slip is especially liked, for
under sheer black frocks the lace
that CLEANS through seems like a
very part of the gown itself. You
can get these slips very simply
edged with black-dyed Val, or if
your taste runs toward ornate ef-
fects you can find beautiful types
that are simply lavish with lace.
A favorite with women who covet a
slender silhouette is the costume slip
of sleek jersey. The strictly tailored
type make widest appeal for prac-
tical everyday wear, but lace trims
are also easily available. Black
sheer gowns are SO very attractive
ly styled with lace, and the mate
rials that make them are so good
looking, such as the dotted black
sheers and crossbar patterning, that
many women are buying them to
wear with housecoats.

Exotic Flowers Trim
Pasted Feather Hats

Milliners are taking special inter-
est this season in creating little
bright-color feather hats to wear
with dark wintry-looking fur coats.
You can get a variety of little types;
the wee sailor, the pill-box, hats
with narrow brims and all sorts of
headdress formed of feather flowers
mounted on a bicycle-clip bandeau
The new feature of the pasted
feather hats is that they are
trimmed with gorgeous feather flow
ers that are exotic in color.

Watch for the new-style cape
suits this spring. Not only will you
see stunning styles as pictured to
the left, but there's going to be a
veritable landslide of cape-suits
styled in most intriguing and versa
tile ways. The cape suit pictured is
proving a big style success, being
an outstanding favorite for about
town wear, styled as it is of fashion

contrast. A charming new gesture is
the cape and skirt of navy, black or
brown, or whatever smart color is
to your liking, the highspot being
the cape lining which is in vivid
color contrast.
The current trend to soft grace ac-
cented with ultra chic highlights is
especially reflected in the one-but-
ton cardigan suits. These are
strikingly detailed with designful
stitching and endless other little
strategies expressed in unusual
pockets and fattering self big
bow ties at the throat.
Prominent in the new showings is
the suit that tops dark skirt with
a light color jacket. The long white

weskit dress or suit makes a stun

Something new has happened in
the sweater realm. 1t is the dress
maker sweater-blouse, which means
that these sweaters are softly styled

Evening sweater blouses are starred
with beads or sequins.

A 75-Yard Toss

1--WE had a contest at Dartmouth
once" Eddie said, ''for distance
passing. was to pass against Swede
Oberlander. We had no following
wind. In this contest I passed on
the carry for rs yards and Swede
hit the 73-yard mark. This is the
only occasion I recall where for
ward passes were accurately meas
ured. But remember, this was not
in competition. 1t may be that
someone has passed the ball over
rs yards on carry, without favor
ing wind. doubt it. Of course, if
you have favoring gale at your
back it would not be difficult to pass
80 or 85 yards"
The main trouble is this-if you
can pick up a passer who can heave
the ball over 60 yards-how can
you find a Hutson or another end
Jho can ramble that far and catch
it? 1 recall, vaguely, one pass in
Dartmouth game against Cornell,
where Eddie Dooley, from his own
35-yard line, hit Bjorkman on the
shoulder, 65 yards away, and just
at the goal line.
The great passers of more modern
times have been Sammy Baugh, Sid
Luckman and Glenn DObbs. And it
might be mentioned that Cecil Is
bell and Arnie Herber were no
hunks. Two of the most accurate
passers I've ever known were Ben
nv Friedman and Sammy Baugh.
They were not 65-yard marksmen.
But they could hit gnat in the eye
from 10 to 80 yards. So could little
Davey O'Brien. There is another
great and now forgotten passer.
There is no set or proved record
on the longest pass ever thrown in
actual competitions pass that was
caught and held Maybe Brick
of California is the man.
Maybe Kenny Washington of
U.C.L.A. 1t might be Isbell to Hut
son. l know of no other end who
could go as far to catch one as Hut
son of the Green Bay Packers. l
,nly know that Eddie Dooley could
cover rs yards through the air and
Eddie today can hit the 65-yard
mark, long after he has been away
rom the Green of Hanover.

4 LWAYS in advance of the times
n fashions calendar is dating
spring surprisingly early this year
Gay new prints as refreshing as
spring itself have been peeping from
under fur coats for quite some time
and the lovely little flower hats thai
are being so smartly worn these
nidwinter days work like magic in
uplifting spirit and morale.
However, the message that fash
ion brings of smart suits ION the
way is undoubtedly the most sig
nificant foreword of all, for stand
ing at the threshold of a new spring
season, it's the suit that becomes
a fashion-frst urge with every wom-
an who is planning a perfectly ap-
pointed wardrobe of timely style
right apparel.
The Importance of suit as the
mainstay in every wardrobe is the
big reason why it should be given
deliberate consideration, for it is
your suit that you'll live i'm for
the most part during midseason
and on through the days to come.
in general, the outstand-
ing feature of suits newly designed
for spring is that their style tech
nique stresses soft handling that
is distinctly feminine and fatter-
ing. Fashion seers predict a tre-
mendous vogue for cape and bolero
suits that tune right into the new
soft-styling program.
The bolero suit here shown
stresses two important details that
are being played up in big way
for spring. The conspicuous use of
buttons is one. Color contrast is the
other. Note the wide skirt band in
striking contrast, as are the bands
at the wrist. In this instance but
tons are seen on the bolero only, but
another model has a side-fasten
skirt with buttons Qarge ones at

Hats have gone very pretty pretty
this winter. Fashion is ever doing
the unusual and this year the big
sensation is that of flowers bloom
ing atop of adorable little hats in
wintertime. The idea of winter
flowers has made instant appeal,
especially when one or more lush
roses add romance and fattery to
a fetching little chapeau. The
lovely little millinery confection by
Lille Dache shown at the top is
in a new Amaranthus (pinkish vlo-
let) shade. The delicate pink rose
at the front is set in a swirl of gray
velvet and pink ribbons studded with
silvery pearls. The hat below, also
a Dache mode, is one of the new
turbans with side width. 1t is made
of white faille embroidered with an
oak spray done in gold thread.

IsbeII's Long Peg

The longest completed pass ever
saw came in a game between the
professional All Stars against the
Green Bay Packers in California
several years ago. Green Bay in
this game had the ball on its one
yard line with only a few seconds
left to play. Cecil Isben of Green
Bay faded back of his goal line and
whipped a long, high one through
the balny California air.
Don Hutson was already under
way. He galloped down the field
with two All Stars alongside. Sud-
denly HutsOn, with his amazing
speed, put on full steam, ran away
from his guardians and took the ball
around the mid-field strip at least
65 yards from the spot where Isbell
had thrown the pass. 1t was an easy
touchdown. happened to be sitting

''The only way this country
can get away from maintain

Is this not the strangest collection
of bedfellows upon any world mat

pie who think each other fascists or
communists, Mr.. Roosevelt and the
chamber of commerce, PM and the
N. Y. Herald Tribune, Mrs. Roose-

For there is no more truth in say
ing this is the only way to "avoid
a large army" than that it is the
only way to maintain an army. 1t
would be large army of more than
million youths II to 81 years old,
new large army each year.
But it would hardly be what we
would call a skilled army. We would
have to maintain another one for
older men for defense. We would
have to have an air force constantly
alert, corps bent on multiplying the
effect of rocket bombs, and what
other new weapons, daily, a whole
war department of just as much
strength as if we did not have COM
pulsion in training.

But a great many other people
are saying daily in the papers a

are all nonmilitary excuses for a

WASHINGTON.-A strong, gener

in several metropolitan papers re.
Gently (Note, / think the radicals
called him fascist-minded during the
last campaign, although the charge
was of political nature and there

''There is only one way to as
sure ourselves of military
strength, whenever needed. That
way consists of system of COM
pulsory military training"
That is simply not true. There
are many ways of assuring our
selves of military strength, when
ever needed. A logical, straightfor-
ward way consists of putting mill
tary training into the high schools
and colleges to develop, and keep
trained, the necessary officer per-
sonnel, and enlarging and moderniz-
ing the national guard, giving it
weapons, including airplanes and
tanks, artillery, ammunition and
commissary to develop a private

That would be the more efficient
way, because it would be constant.

tinuance of West Point and Annapo-

not fall asleep to dangers from with

These are democratic ways.
The taking of boy from his

a Prussian method instituted by
the Prussian miIitarists after
the war of 1870. 1t must be an

0PA and WPB Chiefs
Differ on Progress
|0f Clothing Program
By the Associated Press

By the Associated Press.
There were two versions today of
whether attempts have been made
to sabotage the Governments low
cost clothing program.
Price Administrator Chester Bowles
said indirectly that such an attempt
has been made by special advocate
for group of textile manufacturers.
On the other hand, j. A. Krug,
chairman of the War Production
Board, declares he was shocked by
reports Of sabotage which reached
him as the order implementing the
joint OPA-WPB program was being
signed.
Both agencies and the committee
of industry representatives are in
complete agreement on plans for in
creased production and lower prices
for essential garments, Mr.. Krug
told news conference yesterday
Amazing job Done.
The WPB chief said "one of the
most amazing jobs has been done"
in whipping the program into shape
along lines announced last month.
This calls for diversion of about IS
per cent of all civilian fabric to me-
dium and low priced clothing.
Mr.. Bowles, while taking no cogniz-
ance of published reports of sabo-
tage, brought up the subject in a
letter to members of the print cloth
group of cotton manufacturers. In
1t he said that the executive director
Of the organization, William P.
Jacobs of Clinton, s. c., has been

Super Fortress Raids
Weaken japanese
For. Carrier Attack
BY the Associated Press.


TWENTY-FIRST BOMBER
COMMAND, Guam, Feb. 16.-
Super Fortresses ranged over
Japan today before, during and
after the big carrier attack on
Tokyo.
The B-29s harassed the enemy
in the air and on the ground and
Systematically covered the seaways
from their Saipan base to Honshu,
the main island of Japan, spotting
enemy conveys and revealing coun-
termoves which otherwise would
have been undetected.

bishi aircraft plant at Nagoya-

terceptors into the air the day be-
fore the carrier strike on the capi-
tal-damage inflicted by the B-29s
plus normal Japanese operational
losses made a heavy dent in the
enemy's ability to intercept the
Navy'S Hellcats today.
AS many as 984 Japanese fighters
have been counted attacking a sin
gle B-29 force. Such a battle in
variably must leave the enemy
weakened. Also, Japanese pilots
must have relaxed after the Nagoya
raid, not expecting further strikes
until the customary three or four
days elapsed.
Aside from the full strength raid
on Nagoya, at least three Super
Forts have been harassing the foe
during every "a hours in so-called
weather strikes" They hit Tokyo,
Osaka, Kobe, Nagoya, Yokohama,
Kyoto, Hammamatsu or other cities,
day or night, with varied bomb
loads while observing the weather
conditions.
(These weather strikes, not
announced by the 21st Bomber
Command, bring daily reports
from the Tokyo radio of Super
Fortresses' activity over Japan,
usually with the claim that neg
ligible damage was inflicted.)
The Nagoya raiders carried out
their attack through heavy flax and
returned without loss, the command
said.
Bad weather broke up formations
on the way from Marianas Island
bases and the B-29s reached the
target singly or in small groups.
