by The Associated Press


 A touch of autumn was in the air today in many parts of the nation, including the plains states, the midwest, the Ohio River valley and south as fir as Arkansas and Tennessee.

From the Rocky mountains westward ternpera- tures were above normal but were beginning to drop in the Pacific northwest as cooler air moved inland in that area. Southern California sizzled yesterday. Los Angeles had a thigh of 101j the highest for nearly two years. However, desert wind broke up the smog in that area, which. had lasted for six days and was the worst of the season.

Prints
Are Here
RY Elani

This is the time Of the year
when women have thoughts
about breaking into print.
This Is Q fashion tradition,
however, that Is rapidly being
broken down by many design
ers who favor the use Of prints
year round,
Tall women are partial to
prints. but the tall and thin
should steer away from ver-
tical stripes or patterns that
fall into straight lines. In
general. tall women look best
in sall over prints either
closely grouped or scattered
lightly against the background
color.
New Petterns
Replacing crazy" prints are
new patterns in wonderful
colors printed on embossed
failles, soft crepes. textured
crepes, tissue failles, taifetas,
crisp surahs, and jerseys.
There are plenty Of norals.
geometrics. "aii over" designs.
and scattered print motifs In
subtle and intense colors de-
signed to please the print
wearers. More color than pat
tern describes q great many
bouquet prints with n flower
fresh appeal.
colorfui Thoughts
Prints In golden tones iika
apricot, yellow, bronze and
orange go well with brown
wool coats. Or perhaps the
different color combinations
achieved with scarlet, tur-
quoise, or q soft dusty pink
may prove more appealing.
Bright Tone
With navy woolens try the
violet tones or bright rosy red.
A bright white. or q strong
color print with q navy back
ground to 1t might be another
suggestion.
Black and grey wool or fur
coats react beautifully to
prints In the coppery or beige
tones. You might try the
popular French color duo Of =
