MARKET & FRONT DIAL 0655 soc KAY GOODMAN, Social Editor Paris Pinned Down By ROSETTE HARGROVE NEA Staff Correspondent PARIS—(NEA)—Ranking favorite with many French designers this year is the separate bright jacket which doubles in brass. It teams up now with a slender black wool sheath dress, later on with light silk frocks. Dramatic example is Jacques Fath’s cylamen pink wool jacket, left, which swings into spring in a burst of t sunray pleats; ie faced at lapels and front openings with black velvet. As favored for spring is the cape jacket, a new idea in toppers sponsored by Alix, who combines one of beige and brown plaid with a beige jersey skirt. The short skirt of the cape jacketed suit, right, is proof of Alix’s strong individualistic stand for hemlines that just cover the knees during a season when designers ar> lowering skirts ail the way from mid-calf to ankle.

The white specks are the male scales. The female scales look like dark brown oyster shells. Eggs, which have wintered un der the female shells, hatch in late spring and by May or June yellow crawlers will be visible if you look closely. Sometimes a second generation hatches out in late summer. If this scale is allowed to re main unchecked it may cause the plants to die. v/hen a euonymus vine becomes too heavily infested with this scale it may be best to cut it back almost to the ground. Bum the vine cuttings, To control euonymus scale spray the affected plants early in April using a miscible oil. This first spraying may not reach ell parts of the foliage and a supple mentary spray may be necessary. Since the eggs hatch between May 15 and 30 this I* the best time for the follow-up spray which will thus catch the crawl ers. A mixture of nicotine sul fate and soap should be used for this spray. Infestations of euonymus scale are especially dangerous to psch ysandra plantings because they predispose them to attacks of a fungus disease. Tire fungus causes large brown blotches on the leaves and cankers on the stems. The plants affected by the fungus are killed in circular areas, showing spread by rain-spattered spores or by direct contact of infected foliage with healthy leaves. This fungus spreads rapidly and be comes serious, only when the 1 pachysar.dra plants have become | weakened by attacks of scale or I are otherwise injured.
