This is the season for legs in
the teen-age world
Fashions are built to show the
knees. And the sub-deb set adores
the chance. But styles are lady
like.
kits are big news, worn with
or without the traditional safety
pin. Bermuda skirts about the
same length as the shorts are
other popular items. The skirts
are frequently worn open down the
front showing handsome plaid
shorts or knit tights worn under
meath. Kiltie cUbbies. made Of
lightly elasticized cotton, sport
ing a Scotch plaid motif on one
cuff appeals to high school and
college girls alike, particularly
spOrts-minded lassies.
Knockabout loafers are high on
the list for casual shoes, tall girls
preferring ballet shoes for little
and big dates. Little girls prefer
high heels for their big dates.
String ties with matching belts
sometimes also with matching
wristwatch band) are extra chic.
And steady beau emphasizes his
role by wearing a matching four-in-
hand tie.

Big brother is now wearing

styled the twO-way girls shirt so
they would look tailored for day
and little lady for dress-up with
the addition of a matching jabot
says these shirts do not have "a
real bOyish look" on the girls but
take on a masculine air when
worn by the boys
New hats worn for football dates
include a fad-a little hand-crO-
cheted wool skull cap with two
long braids growing from each side
Of the hat complete with perky
bows at the ends. These are avail
able in school cOlOrs and those
that match tresses.
White blazers are worn with
Bermuda skirts and kits. Char
coal is top color in solids. Tweed
jumpers cut high enough so the
jumper may be worn without a
blouse for dates also is stylish.
Most young girls adore the short,
short haircut, regardless Of all the
conversation about hair growing
to Rumpelstilskin lengths.
Knee-length wool stocks in dark
colors are extremely popular, al

Veterans Administration
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
OIL understand that a veteran
may not receive Korean CT
training benefit payments if they
duplicate payments made by the
Government under some other
program. / plan to enroll in a
land-grant college, which gets
Federal funds from a nOn-VA
source. Would I still be permit
ted to take my training under the
Korean CT Bill?
Ayes. The fact that the Gov
ernment provides funds to land
grant colleges would not deprive
you of your rights to enroll un-
der the Korean CT Bill. The ban
on duplicate payments would
apply only if you yourself were
to get money from two Federal
sOurces-the VA and some other
agency.
Q-I have a CT insurance policy.
/ have named my beneficiaries
but have not yet told VA how
/ want the money paid out If
something were to happen to me
before I designate a method of
payment, what will the VA do
with the money?
Aft you fail to select a method
of settlement, the insurance mon
ey will be paid to your benefic-
in Qk nGanun 30 10.
Your beneficiary, however, would
have the right to choose some
other settlement method so long
as it is not a lump-sum payment.
Q-I am disabled World War
veteran drawing a VA pension.
Recently set up a small. bus
mess that I operate part-time
from my home. Do I have to
count all money l make from
the business as income, for pen
sion purposes?
A-NO. In computing, the income
from your business, you are
permitted to deduct necessary
p expenses Of carrying on the bus
mess. 1t is your net income that
counts, not your gross income.
Q-WOuld it be possible to attend
a cooking school in France un-
der the Korean CT Bill? This
school is not a college.
A-No. Under the Korean CT Bill.
veterans may train in foreign
countries only at accredited col
leges and universities. They may
not enroll in any other type
of school.

As a veteran of the Christmas
wars, it seems to me that the per
iod between Thanksgiving and
Christmas should be spent feeling
frantic, overwhelmed with chores
and fighting the crowds every step
OF the way. One of the special
pleasures of Christmas is waking
up on that holiday morning and
knowing that shopping is one Job
out Of the way for about II months.
Others apparently feel different
ly about it. The magazine referred
to above, for instance, obviously
believes that Christmas-shOpping
is a project which requires the
planning involved in a military
campaign. 1t advocates a thing
called armchair shopping" for
befOre-handed souls who merely
flip through the pages Of their fav-
orite newspapers and other pubi-
cations, rip out advertisements
which answer the problems of get
ting something" for Aunt Gladys,
and conclude the transaction by
telephone or mail.
KNOCK the hysteria out of
Christmas planning it's advocates

day, bTight-eyed and unmarried.
you can go shopping once anyway
for the Christmas fun of it.
Me, I'm sticking to the old wav.
First comes Thanksgiving, then the
list-making and finally, with the
deadline hours away, the last-min-
ute plunge into the fray. Maybe
people won't like what I give them.
but it's the spirit of the gift that
counts. isn't it?

There are no figures available.

writer felt he was a refugee
from some sort of statistic.
1t seems that ladders always
fail to reach those difficult spots
where the do-it-yourself handy
man is on the job at hand.
Maybe this fear of ladders has
built up over the years. for the
manufacture of ladders has gone
on for years without innovations
or real safety improvements for
some time. However, on the
market now is a self-leveling
step ladder which the manufac-
turer claims is the safest ladder
ever built.
While the ladder is sturdily
constructed of the finest lum-
Der and engineered with pre-
cision tolerances. its secret and
it's success is in the incorpora-
ton of a new self-leveling hinge
and its center lock. It will stand

surfaces, even when one leg rests
on a book. The manufacturer
guarantees that 1t can't topple.

Toilet Tank Troubles.
It is annoying and discourage

rosion are attacking the metal
pipes Of the toilet water tank
which you are seemingly unable
to do anything about, other than
to replace the pipes when the
time comes. Now there is a new
product on the market that in
addition to keeping the toilet
tank pipes free from rust, also
eliminates those ugly stains in
tank and bowl while keeping the
water fresh and pure. This new
product also eliminates the use
of the old fashioned bowl bushel
and cleaner. and acts as a con-
troll on bathroom water odorS.
This new product is a small.

Miss Margaret Calvin
Wins Partial Victory
In Realty Litigation

Miss Margaret Jean Calvin.
former Skidmore College dean,
whose real estate transactions
here were highly publicized some
years ago, yesterday won par
tial victory in litigation over
real estate holdings.
The s. Court of Appeals for
the District of Columbia, while
upholding a lower court opinion
giving ownership of more than
$500,000 in properties to rela-
tiveS Of Miss Calvin, ordered re-
manded for hearing the issue of
whether she should be reim-
bursed for services, repairs and
taxes paid.
Managed Properties.
The properties involved were
the Bradford Apartments, 1900
block Of K street NV, and
properties at 1888 Columbia road
NV; 1913 Girard street NV,
and at 219 H street NV.
Miss Calvin at one time man
aged the properties in trust for
other members Of her family.
Later. title to the holdings was
conveyed to two other persons
by Miss Calvin. Subsequently
Miss Calvin and the relatives op-
posed the conveyance in a court
action. The lower court ruled
that the properties actually be-
longed to the relatives. Miss
Calvin contested the award in
the appellate court.
Claimed $16O,OOO.
Miss Calvin has claimed $780,
900 is due her for her services
in managing the properties. She
also asks additional funds for
money disbursed in taxes, re-
pairs and insurance. It is this
issue that has been sent back
to the U. S. District Court for
the District of Columbia for
adjudication.
Attorneys LaVerne r. Dilweg
and Thomas Bruce Fuller are
representing Miss Calvin. The
relatives are represented by At
torneys William T. Hannah and
Ralph F. Berlow.
