If That Man Is Average He’s Stylish Selecting clothing gifts for the men on the Christmas list should be relatively simple. The average man is now fash ion-oriented, amenable to new fashion ideas for his cloth ing )and sportswear, says the American Institute erf Men’s and Boys* Wear. In view of that trend, here are some suggestions for styl ish Christmas presents. DRESS SHIRTS put the new, stronger colors to excellent use. Stripes are more popular than ever in regular, wide track and new color-on-color ver sions. Tattersall checks and win dowpane plaids score in both traditional, com temporary styles. SPORTS SHIRTS go wild and woolly in deeply-textured fab rics. The casual shirt appear in smooth cloths and knits in sparkling solid colors, woven and printed patterns. SWEATERS return to the bulky look for the active sports men and outdoorsmen. Fisher man knits, duo-toned ’‘pop corn” knits and variations on the Scandinavian theme make the scene for the chilly days. Ol/TERWEAR has become a classic Christmas gift and the style word for the season is ‘‘double-breasted**. Dressy British Warm types in wools include meltons, bopsack and a host of twills. ACCESSORIES for holiday giving find ties keyed toa man’s usual good taste in clothing. Gloves, too, are always wel come gifts because most men can use another pair. Belts for business wear and sportswear are available in hol iday boxes. BOUTIQUE ITEMS, gifts that combine the novel with the pra ctical, include presents as var ied as clothes brushes, decan ters, dresser organizers, ash trays and travel kits. SMALL GIFTS the “elusive stocking stuffer,” include hand kerchiefs, silk pocket squares, ascots, socks and mufflers. The big gift, ranging from suits to topcoats and hats, calls for try-ons. However, that is no obstacle to gifting. The “gift ticket” is the ideal answer an) also right for the man who is hard to please. DRUGS AND MEDICINE The Senate has rejected a plan to Include the cost of pre emption drugs in medicare insurance coverage. Senate Re publican Leader EverettDirk son said the federal govern ment couldn’t afford its share of the $690 million estimated cost for the first year. Study shows 84% of wives use birth control.
