THE TWIG
September 25, 1969
Jack Frost Has More to Nip at This Fail!
By DALE CUNNINGHAM
Are you ready to take the plunge?
Fall fashions have, and the look
is long and low—in everything from
dresses to accessories.
1920 Look—Still Popular
The most popular addition to the
1920 look — growing from past
seasons—is the long vest or weskit,
worn with multipleated, dirndl, or
culotte skirts, and even with shorter
corduroy and knit scooter culottes.
Whether of a matching fabric, con
trasting or matching knit or crochet,
vests are fabulous accents to any cos
tume. Gray and camel or gray and
red—number one fall duos—would
be a great combination to bring to
gether for Saturday afternoon games.
And when It’s cold, drag along your
shaggy coat—long to the floor or
short. Fake furs, fox, rabbit and
squirrel, are the breeds.
No More “Blouses”
The open collar still dominates
in the shirt field. There is “no-such-
thing” as a blouse. Their sophisti
cation is achieved in coachman,
traditional or low and rounded neck
lines.
For after five, the more feminine
scooped neckline rates high, com
plimenting simple waisted or A-line
costumes, pocketed and multi-but
toned, of course. Try greens, golds,
oranges and reds.
Fun With Accessories
Accessories are the fun note this
fall. “Anything and everything
Gold” Is the guideline in jewelry.
Chain necklaces; large, rounded or
any unusual earrings; and chain belts
are worn prominently. The “spiffy”
look of wrap-around, snake-like gold
bangles Is big. “Scarves” is plural
and they are to be worn as ascots,
belts or ties.
1920ish Shoes
Shoes are amazingly 1920ish—
huge heels, lots of top overlay and—
just lots of shoe! In addition to a
knit or crocheted beret, add a low,
swinging shoulder bag: burnt umber
to match your shoes. It’s a great
new color.
Fall fashions are swinging and
free, but cozy, comfortable and ac
tive. Experiment. Contrast is in
order, but simplicity, as ever, is the
last word.

Teachers' Exams
Dates Announced
College seniors preparing to teach
school may take the National Teach
ers Examinations on any of the four
different test dates announced today
by Educational Testing Service, a
nonprofit, educational organization
which prepares and administers this
testing program.
New dates for the testing of pros
pective teachers are: November 8,
1969 , and January 31, April 4, and
July 18, 1970. The tests will be
given at nearly 500 locations
throughout the United States, ETS
said.
Results of the NTE are used by
many large school districts as one
of the several factors In the selection
of new teachers and by several states
for certification or licensing of teach
ers. Some colleges also require all
seniors preparing to teach to take
the examinations. The school sys
tems and state departments of edu
cation which use the examination
results are designated In the Bul
letin of Information for candidates.
On each full day of testing, pros
pective teachers may take the Com
mon Examinations, which measure
the professional preparation and
general cultural background, and a
Teaching Area Examination which
measures mastery of the subject they
expect to teach.
Prospective teachers should con
tact the school systems in which
they seek employment, or their col
leges, for specific advice on which
examinations to take and on which
dates they should be taken.
The Bulletin of Information for
Candidates contains a list of test
centers, and information about the
examinations, as well as a Registra
tion Form. Copies may be obtained
from college placement officers,
school personnel departments, or
directly from National Teacher
Examinations, Box 911, IMucational
