Pans Shows Trend Toward Long Skirts --— 4 By CYNTHIA LOWRY AP Newsfeature* PARIS—The peacemakers in tile fashion world are unanimous on one thing: skirts are going to be much longer—and that may mean ankle-length. Pierre Balmain, the talented de signer whose fall collection was one of the “sleepers” of the season has come right out with a plan for it: “I would like the smartly dress ed woman of 1946 to adopt ankle length skirts for town wear.” The others, Bruyere, Jacques Heim—to note two who showed their new models yesterday—are lengthening skirts gradually and notably in afternoon dresses. Apparently there are two flies in the ointment. ' The first and foremost is the shortage of material with which to make much longer clothes. But it is believed that this can be over come in America as well as in France in anywhere from six to twelve months. The second—and apparently this arvnlips much more to Europe than America—is that pre-World War I skirt lengths are impractical at a time when ladies are able to do much less riding in elegance than walking or bicycle riding. But any. way, very long skirts are definitely on the way. All in line with the international orgy of dress lengthening which is in store for us is the all-out man ner in which designers are stress ing a complete return to femininity and tossing out anything resembl ing the stiff masculine lines which have been required styling for sc long. Madeline Vraimant, for instance, is showing everything with a wasp waist, swelling hips and moulded bosom effect. Her lines require a special little boned corset. Balen ciaga likes a tiny waist and draws attention to moulded curves. It is a bandwagon and everyone is climbing on. Balmain is joining Lelong in showing any number of cut-away type suits, with a single buttor highup and with the jacket worn over tricky little vest hnd shir, effects that resemble a Victorian riding costume. The effect is charming and makes for indifinite variety. Heim and Bruyere are showing more conservative clothes than Balmain. Bruyere is particularly fond of a short waistline and a long drop from the midriff to the hern, line. Heim’s clothes are youthful, restrained and in luscious color. Joseph Kennedy Urges .

Thi being a religious selection. Before we leave the operetta en tirely, I would like to send my orchids to them this week for con tributing $70 worth of new scenery which may be used by other or ganization in their various pro ductions. The juniors have chosen as their play “Sixteen in August” and have begun casting. No characters have been selected as yet, but they prob ably will be by the end of the week. I have done lots of snooping and found out more than you can ima gine about that National Honor Society hay-ride and weiner-roast. It was held at the Sugar Bowl this past Saturday night. Some of those brilliant students who are mem bers and who attended were Eliza beth Evans, John Hearn, Jane Rey nolds, Pat Hardwick, Robert Strick land, Bill Peters, Franklin Jones, Lon Ussery, Jane McAdams, Mary Benson, Barbara Sternberger, Shir ley Williams, Betty Payne, Kathryn Saunderman, Bernice Pierce, and Helen Rosenman. It really must have been swell cause Jane Mc Adams said she had never had so much fun on any party before. And PTrprvViftflv t.hprp initiatpH intn the “Whom Do You Love Club’’ which is quite an up and coming organization. Poor Helen Rosen man had an awful time meeting the qualifications, but she finally made it. And I was told that every time Lon Ussery was asked questions which had to be answered before you could become a member, he went off into gales of laughter. One time they even had to send him off by himself and let him sit on a sand dune until he could get his wits about him — and I don’t mean his buddies, I mean his thoughts! I sho’ do wish I was a brain so I could be irt a club where they have so much fun! So Eugene Mauney has finally sold His car! I know just about everybody at school knew Mau ney’s machine. It was that black coupe with one broken window and the most unusual horn you’ve ever heard. Some of us surely are going to miss having him come by our house in the early hours of the morning blowing his horn and screaming at us at the top of his voice!Needless to say, most of the parents will be glad to hear that he no longer possesses it. But never fear, dear mothers and dads, he’s on the look-out for another, and we all hope he’ll find just the right one real soon. We all miss his midnight calls and hope it won’t be too long before his litle wheezy car horn and his great big booming voice can be heard coming down our streets again! Back home again is George Jones, now one of the Marines, but always one of the gang back at NHHS. This time he’s minus his mustache, but he looks every inch a man! Why did Shakespeare have to write Hamlet anyway? I’m sure that this Very question has been in the minds of all of Miss Formy Duval’s students since about a week or ten days ago. This week has been spent in writing a precis and character sketches. And there are still 80 lines of memory work to be done. Oh, well! Everybody who has finished school tells us how much they miss it and wish they were m our shoes. I wonder just how many of them would like to be studying Hamlet? New promotions have been made in the ROTC, but more about that for the week-end. Be sure to listen to the Teen-Age Merry-Go-Round this Saturday morning and hear the leads in the operetta tell just what it meant to them to be in it. And they may sing a few selections, so don’t miss this program. It’s for us, the teen agers, so give it all of your sup port. That’s all there is for now so un til the week-end, “So long.” BETA CLUB MEETING WINSTON-SALEM, March 5—OP) —North Carolina’s national Beta club representatives will meet here March 8-9 at the Robert E. Lee hotel. The meeting, first since 1942, is expected to draw some 800 high school students, according to Norwood C.
