4 NEW YORK-The shape Of thing,
/ to come IN 1855 already IS cut anC
I stitched in the fashion canyons 81
/ New York.
After all the tumult and thu
shouting caused by a small Pari.
sian wizard named Christian Dior
American manufacturers have tax.
en- a second look and decided they
can turn out Wearable and fatter-
ing clothes without reouirine
American women to fiatten the
chests which they are so proud
/ The Dior H-line, the long-torso
silhouette and the new foundation
i garments which lift the bust an
have proved a bonanza to the
american garment industry
Corset and bra manufacturers
who at first shrieked in horror at
reports Of DiOr's new flat-chested
edict found business booming
when they adapted the French sill
houette to their own specifications.
The main difference is that the
new foundations lift the bust high
eT and nip the waist less than for
merly This makes possible the at
tenuated line necessary for effective
wearing Of one Of the new long
torso dresses or suits.
The lOng-tOFsO look is the most
important role in most of the
American collections for spring. II
Is done both in suits and in one
piece dresses, the bodice extending
% the hipline, the skirt usually
pleated below. Although the dress
may have belt or cuff around the
hips, there is none Of the shapeless
sad-sack look Of the 1920s, for the
bodice fits the body like the paper
on the wall, and requires more
careful corseting than ever before
Also important in the spring
lineup IS the OverblOuse, often used
~ three-piece costumes consisting
Of hip-length loose coat. skirt and
oYerblouse which matches the lin
ing Of the coat.
Ihe eOVered-up look is the thing
both for evening dresses and beach
wear. Those bare expanses Of
shoulders and midriff are strictly
passe now, my dear, and the new
thing is a sort of camisole ton.
with wide shoulder straps and a
square neckline.
Those multiple strands Of beads
and bangles are still important in
the jewelry horoscope, but the
newest necklace is matinee length.
which means it comes about to mid
chest. Earrings for evening are
longer and more dazzling than
ever but for daytime they're more
discreet.
The newest bathing suit that will
be seen on U. S. beaches in 1855 is
the striped WOOl-knit maillot.
And as usual, those who shv
away from extreme fashions stiii |
will be able to find a lot of nice |
wearable clothes that look pretty /
much the same as the favorite /
dress Of 1854.

After the sensitivity of an
acoustic device has been de-
termined, 1t is sometimes
given a practical test at
Hampton Roads, Va. The
Naval Ordnance Lab trans
ports recording equipment in
q special 32-foot trailer and
attaches 1t to the device in
the water.
Then scientists can record
how we'll the receiver picks
up the sounds of ships, waves
and fish. The Navy wants its
underwater weapons to be
sensitive enough to be at
tracted by ships some dis
tance away, but not so deli
cate as to be exploded by
large waves and nearby fish.
Under the direction Of Alvin
T. Jaques of the Acoustics
Research Division of the lab
oratory, Paul c. Rand and
his assistants, william A.
AIDES and Clyde E. Kelly, run
the acoustic barge. They
lower tiny hydrophones and
projectors or huge speakers

and receivers into the water.
They record data on how
we'll the receivers are picking
up the noise put out by the
projectors. Temperature, di-
rection, depth, power, pitch,
all are recorded.
The scientists work with
sound that cannot be heard,
paradoxcal as this may
seem. The human ear can
hear frequencies up to around
10000 cycles per second and
down to about 20 cycles per
second. However, underwater
acoustic experts deal with in
struments that produce sound
up to 2 million cycles per
second and down to a few
cycles per second. 1t is still
sound to them and can be
recorded on their instruments.
The acoustic barge Is air
conditioned for year-around
work. It doesn't need much
heat because the instrument
panel gives of enough warmth
to keep the scientists COM
Portable in cold weather.
