Inc., New York) J\ew college clothes accent the traditional college classics — good wool suits and sweaters in bright, splashed colors. These three war-speeded freshmen wear gored skirts and pullovers. Their room is cheerfully decorated with their own woven, wash able, colorful spreads and matching drapes. Fabric is one of a sun-country series in bright colors and gay patterns designed especially for college youngsters. By MARGUERITE YOUNG, (NEA Service Staff Writer) NEW YORK, June 5.—War has done a real speedup on the college girl’s schedule, cutting her play time and often her budget, too, but she still finds time and money to be one of the world’s best-dressed types. Her clothes will change relative ly little this year—judging by cur rent surveys of her buying mood and by the clothes that fine stores have stocked for her—and there's a reason. This girl is conserva tion-bent, and classic college clothes are among the best exam ples of genuine conservation. Lux ury is out. The buyer of one of Fifth Ave nue’s smartest college shops says early shoppers are seeking a good warm coat for night-watching dur ing air-raid practice, plenty of cotton shirts, and that’s all that’s different from last year. In fact, the triumph of new WPB-regulated college clothes in this shop is—they still look the same. There are pseudo-pleated skirts, gored skirts, dirndls, and there are still plenty of sweaters, plenty of good tweeds. Button-down-front skirts may catch on later, it is expected, but right now the girls are not too in terested. In fact, they’re fairly in different toward most novelties. Packable, bicycle-worthy suits and culottes, however, are a big thing in the wardrobe. Behind these trends are the facts of wartime college life. Eighty percent of the important schools, boys, girls and co-educational, have adopted the wartime speedup which squeezes four years’ work into a little less than three. This brings the student back to the campus, often, in June. Many col leges are requiring those who want to start this year at all to attend the summer session. And first-year enrollment is expected to be huge, the total swelled par ticularly by young women training for post-war professions and for wartime activities now. A house which interviewed 4,000 students and also the administra tors of a dozen top schools reports more than 61 percent of the stu dents are taking just-instituted war-training courses, 77 per cent have had their allowance cut, and 73 percent are buying war bonds. The students’ answer is budget juggling and working to supple ment the check from home. And the students are economiz ing with “old heads”—first stric ture is on small luxuries they used to buy at the corner drugstore, then come fancy-looking and fragile clothes, then any gadget which they think might prove to be a “wrong buy.” Good cheerful clothes and good, cheerful, lasting furnishings for their rooms are counted as impor tant parts of the economy pro gram. They mean to spend much more time in the rooms from now on, winter and summer, and they are therefore looking for simple, washable furnishings. Lucile Parker Entertains For Jeannette Bush Miss Jeannette Bush, whose wed ding to Harold Bishop Ketchum, Jr., will take place this afternoon, was honored this week at a mis cellaneous shower when Miss Lu cile Parker entertained at her home.

THEN WE QO HOLTT TO SEA UND TAKE OUR Shed A Tear If You Don’t Relish Onions By MRS. GAYNOR MADDOX NEA Servce Staff Writer ONIONS are a good low - cost source of Vitamin B and C. They also add bulk to the diet. Mrs. Frances Foley Gannon, Di rector of New York City’s Bureau of Consumer’s Service, gives these tips on buying and preparing onions: Choose those that are bright, clean and well-shaped. Dry skins are another indication of quality. See that the onion is hard, not flabby, and avoid any that have begun to sprout, or in which the seed stem has developed. Mis shapen onions may be a poor buy because of the waste involved in preparation. Stuffed Onions Five large, mild onions, 3 table spoons butter or other fat, 1 1-2 cup chopped celery, 2 tablespoons chopped parsley, 2 cups bread crumbs, 1 teaspoon salt. Skin the onions, cut in half crosswise, simmer in salted water until almost tender, and drain. Remove the centers without dis turbing the outer layers and chop fine. Melt two tablespoons of the fat in a skillet, add the chopped onion, celery, and parsley, and cook for a few minutes. Push the vegetables to one side, melt t>e remaining fat and add to it the bread crumbs and salt, and then combine with the vegetables. Fill the onion shells with the stuffing, put in a baking dish, cover, and bake In a moderate oven for about 30 minptes, or until the onions are tender. Remove the cover from the baking dish dur ing the last of the cooking so that the onions will brown on top. MENU BREAKFAST: Apple sauce, baked eggs enriched toast, cof fee, milk. LUNCHEON: Fried ham sandwich on rye bread, date and nut squares, iced tea, milk. DINNER: Lamb patties, baked potatoes, stuffed onions, green salad, whole wheat rolls, cherrypie, coffee, milk. * A * Miss Highsmith Hostess Feting Margaret Farmer Entertaining in honor of Miss Margaret Farmer, whose wedding will take place this afternoon, Miss Beth Highsmith was hostess Friday at a luncheon at the Gov ernor Dudley at 1 o’clock.
