Knowing a good thing when
they see one, clothing manufac-
turers are making the most of
the return to black in mems

sports jacket in a waffle weave"
worSted combining dull and
shiny black yarns with splashes
OF light gray.
This jacket is another Of those
nubby things, with it's rich color
and an illusion of third-d -dimen-

nantly black, it also has a more
formal air than most sports
jackets.
Do your clothes reveal your

extent, we'd say. 1t may be old

is what counts.
Here are some tips on buying
a suit -that-suits- you: If you're
short and Stoutish, loud colors
and patterns will subtract inches
from your height and add them
to your breadth. Wear solid
colors or very faint stripes, and
keep the colorS subdued.
If you're lucky enough to be
tall and thin, you can write your
own ticket. Practically anything
looks good on you. Just keep
in mind that your clothes should
for the most part contrast with
your general coloring. If you're
blond and pale, don't wear light
gray or beige. If you're dark
complexioned with black hair,
keep away from navy blue and
dark brown.
No matter what your build,
don't mix striped or patterned

shirts and ties with striped or
+ patterned suits. You're always
safe when you set stripe or pat
ern against a solid color.
It's a good idea to keep basic
wardrobe of at least one plain
suit. some white shirts and solid
color ties and socks. Then you
can avoid clashes when you buy
or are given more novel and col
orful clothes and furnishings.
What playful muse inspires

admired especially those anony-

rhapsodize on the subject of male

The Alaska Music Trails concerts which have heeu heard in Kodiak for the past two years, will not be schedul- ed locally this year, it has been announced.
 The high price of tickets, necessitated by the limited seating capacity of the US0 clubrooms, cut down on the ticket sales last year. A $45 deficit in the budget was made up by the PTA.
 Locally, too, no one person has been willing to assusne the responsibility of the or ganization, which was practic- ally a one-woman job last year for Mrs. Barney Herbrig.

Senate Group Acts
On Report Criticizing
Air Force Projects
BY the Assoeiafed Press

A secret report sharply criti-
cizing the Air Force for waste
and poor planning on multi-mil-
lion dollar overseas projects
came up for action today by the
Senate Armed Services Com
mittee.
Invited to present it were two
former members of the commit
tee, Senators Morse, Indepen-
dent. of Oregon. and Long, DEM
ocrat. of Louisiana.
The closely-guarded text, Sem
ators Morse and Long said. is
highly critical of the Air Force"
Both also said that much of
the report could be made public
although parts of it now are
classified as secret or top secret.
Senators Morse and Long
drafted the document after q
six-weeks inspection of overseas
Army, Navy and Air Force in
StallationS.
Senator Morse was bumped of
his place on the Armed Services
Committee at the start of this
session after he bolted the Re
publican Party during the last
campaign to support Gov. Adlai
e. Stevenson, the Democratic
presidential nominee. He now
lists himself as Independent.
He said he believed part Of
the momentum to kick him off
this committee "came from top
brass in the Pentagon" with
whom he had clashed. "
Senator Long lost his place
on the committee because the
Democrats seats were reduced
in number under G. o. p. con-
troll Of the Senate.
Chairman Saltonstall previ-
ouSly had announced that more
than 500 million worth Of over
seas Air Force projects were
being held up. at the Senate
committees request, because of
criticism in the Morse-Long re-
port.
Senator Long has told the
Senate he is convinced "that
perhaps billion dollars can be
saved without in any way re-
ducing the ability of the Nation
to fight"
Senator Saltonstall said PEN
tagon officials would be called
before the committee later to
reply to the report. He said a
decision on making parts or all
of it public would later be put
up to the full committee. SEN
ator Morse said he will make
public much Of the report If the
committee does not.

Eisenhower Confers
With ANA | Leaders on
U. 5. Health Program

PRESIDENT EISENHOWER today
held an extended conference
with leaders of the American
Medical Association, which
spearheaded the opposition to
the Truman National Health
Plan but visitors later declined
to go into details of the confer
ence.
"We just discussed things in
general-exchanged IDEAS" said
DR.. Louis H. Bauer of Hemp
stead, N. Y. the president. Mrs.
Oveta Culp Hobby, Federal
Security Administrator who ac-
companied the group to the
White House, said they did not
take up any legislation.
Asked if "Socialized medicine
was discussed, DR.. Bauer said it
was not.
Sees House Leaders.
Gen. Eisenhower had lunch
with House leaders in q
further effort to strengthen the
relationship between the White
House and Capitol Hill. The
President had a similar meet
ing Tuesday for Senate Re-
publican leaders and Press Sec
retary James c. Hagerty said
these informal sessions will be
continued until the President
has played host to all COP Sen
ators and Representatives.
During the election campaign,
Gen. Eisenhower said he was
strongly opposed to "socialized
medicine" But he also said some
way should be found to make
the benefits of medical science
available to a far greater num-
ber Of the American people.
Possibly at stake in this meet
ing was the fate of a new plan
devised by former President
Truman's Commission on the
Nations Health Needs - for
voluntary. prepaid medical in
surance to be financed partly by
Federal and State governments.
The ANA has opposed one
section Of this program which
provides that the Government
buy health insurance for some
social security beneficiaries out
of social security funds.
Commissions Plan.
The Truman Commission plan
called for a new system to be
financed by SIS billion of Fed
eral and State funds each year.
The aim was to bring medical
care within reach of any one
who wants it on a prepaid basis.
Briefly, the plan would work
like this: States and individuals
could take the plan or leave it,
as they wished-but if they came
in they would accept the stand
ards fixed by the Federal Gov
ernment. Control would rest
largely in local and State boards.
People financially able to pay
their own health insurance pre-
miums would pay their own way.
But those who couldn't pay
their own way would have the
costs paid in full or in part by
Federal and State funds.
Some members of Congress
already have said that if the
ANA puts up a fight against
the Truman commission plan,
then they doubt it has q chance
in Congress.
