that they weren't giving it
much thought, got into a cab

them said.

mumbled, starting out. Must

asked, with more than a tinge
of sarcasm.
"All my life. Born here"
Been driving a cab long?"
"Started d yesterday" the

FASHION NOTEBOOK
Mariko's Second Love
Is Fashion DESIGNING

East and West can meet with
delightful results. Her hus-
band who was with the Voice Of
America here in Washington
up until May. likes her to wear
Western dress. Kimonos she
finds are impractical" for gen.
eral wear, since everything
turns over" with the big
sleeves.
A lot of the Oriental intiu-
ence is seen in her personal
designing. 81 guess uncon-
sciously I lean toward Orien-
tal-type fabrics and patterns"
A favorite summer dress is
white cotton with an all-over
black embroidery design. 1t
has a drawstring neckline.
She's fond of brocade and an
other dress is cut on Chinese
sheath lines and has its tulip
pattern etched out with black
beads on the sheath.
Mariko finds much fashion
stimulation in the fashions of
other foreign lands.
Borrowing Obi
The sheath dress so popular
now she thinks can prove
awfully monotonous. 1t can
be a delightful dress If Ameri-
can women were to take a tip
from the Japanese who find
the obi sash a flattering waist
line accessory
She wraps it around and the
wide sash gives a colorful and
dramatic note to her dresses.
The obi is just a GUNNER
bund." she states. You can
put a pin on it, and for a
summary note stick long
stemmed flowers through.
When she's home Mariko
likes to lounge around in beau
tifully tailored Stacks. If she
wears a kimono it's one she's
redesigned with the sleeves cut
short.
Considered tall for a Japa-
nese girl, Mariko finds her
S 5" figure very comparable to
the American woman's. Amer

appealing.

advanced the points of the papsl

was for Justice, charity and a re-

The prelate was long an out

when Russia was reaping an
abundance of criticism, the Arch
bishop startled the world with a
plea that judgment be withheld
and the Soviets be given a chance
to redeem the wrong which had
been done in Poland.
When Russia's opportunity
