Dior Opens

PARIS, July rs (R.-
Christian Dior electrified Paris
today with his new magnet
line. putting out the hips and
emphasizing the bust.
Using real surprise tactics,
Dior threw a dozen nearly
ankle-length day dresses into
the middle of an otherwise
short-skirted collection.
Clasps and applause seemed
to assure another "Scandalous
success" as the French call it.
Back row spectators sprang up
and craned at the sight.
Without risking his whole
collection on the drastically
different length, which would
outmode every wardrobe, Dior
clearly launched a trial balloon.
Unless the critics puncture it.
1t may be the another new
look.
The magnet line, clearly in
tended to draw male eyes,
rounds the shoulders, bust and
hips, and drops necklines.
Skirts are wider at the hip
than at the hem, being set-in
in soft folds at the natural
waistline. Dior calls them
Dutch skirts.
Faith follows Dior on Friday,
with Helm and Chanel picking
the same show time in the
afternoon. Saturdays openings
are Patou. morning, and Lam
win, afternoon. Balmain shows
Monday morning and Rouff
Monday afternoon.
DesseS is also scheduled for
! Monday. Griffe shows Tuesday.

There are youngsters to
whom delinquency is Just a
word in the dictionary. to
whom crime is something they
might read about in a paper or
see in a television play-if they
had the time.
Quite a few of these unde-
linquent juveniles are members
of the National Ballet of Can
ada, which opens here August
2 at the Carter Barron Amphi-
theater.
A 14-year-old miss is the
youngest star in the troup.
She is Edelayne Brandt. who
auditioned for the national
ballet at the age of IL, so great
was her talent.
Too Young
Miss Celia Franco, the COM
pany's artistic director, felt
that a child should not leave
home until she was at least IA,
so she deferred Edelayne's ad-
mission to the company.
For two years the dancer
studied at the school of the
National Ballet of Canada.
When she reached the magic
age. Edelayne was welcomed
on the roster of the company.
She has been given solo roles
In Swan Lake, Les SylphideS,
Giselle. the Nutcracker Suite
and Offenbach in the Under
world.
When at home, Edelayne
lives with her parents and
younger sister who is also a
talented dancer. She attends
the Jarvis Collegiate School in
Toronto.
Her immediate elders in the
company are Judith Dornis is,
and Mimi Logvinova also Is.

In pointing out the need fol
further regulation, Mr.. Clifford
emphasized that traffic volume
entering the intersection of East
West highway and Wisconsin
avenue has increased 42.5 pei
cent since 1850. Counts show
that an average of 5,750 vehicles
use the intersection daily as
compared to 1890 five years
ago. Most of this traffic, about
70 per cent. drives through
Bethesda "only because it is
necessary to reach a destination
elsewhere.
The culprit in traffic jams on
Wisconsin avenue, he added, is
the traffic volume added tc
marginal friction" such as park
ing. double parking, stopping
and turning.
Mr.. Clifford emphasized that
time spent by motorists in get
ting through Bethesda is cost

Although port bill is State

Baltimore City and excludes
most of Anne Arundel County
and all of Talbot County from

RICHMOND, Mar. 7.-Legis-
lation that could give Arlington
property owners a veto power
over bond issue referendums in
the future was enacted in the
General Assembly today.
Before the program would go
into effect, however, voters would
have to approve it in referen-
dunn held any time in 1857.
The plan was included in a
bill by Arlington State Senator
Charles r. Fenwick.
/ Recently, Arlington voters
turned down a $9.4 million
school construction bond issue.
One of the complaints frequent
lily made in previous years is
that bond issues. which increase
real estate property taxes. are
approved by non-property own
erS living in apartments.
Voice Given Others
| The Arlington County Board
asked for legislation to restrict
the voting on bond issues to
Owners of real estate. Senator
Fenwick's bill still gives the nom
property owners a voice in ap-
proving or disappearing the pub
Ilic debts, but makes approval
conditioned upon a majority
vote of those who own real
estate. He also added the re-
Iquirement that a referendum in
which all voters may participate
first must carry in favor of the
plan.
/ The Senate passed. 80 to O,
without debate, a resolution de-
claring it to be public policy that
only clerks and minor employees
of the Federal Government who
are without executive authority
should hold Offices in Virginia.
This was final action on the
measure.
The resolution is an outgrowth
of the Boatwright bill, which was
designed to erect barrier
against Federal employees serving
in this State. That bill was killed
last week.
Bridge Study Voted
The Senate passed and sent to
the House the Fenwick resolu-
ton directing the State Highway
Department to study the FEAST
bility of building and maintain
