Suits lead the fashion field again this spring, and milliners are featuring suit hats. Here is a popular large-brimmed model in beige and brown worn by CBS actress Kathryn Keyes of the "Lux Radio Theatre" cast. It has rakish cavalier lines, accented by contrasting applique and double quills jutting from the upturned brim at the back. (From John-Frederics.)

In the Women's World

Spring version of the soft suit in a tri-color combination is worn here by Frances Carlin, actress heard on Columbia network's "Life Can Be Beautiful." The navy jacket in the now shorter length has rounded shoulders, cardigan closing and set-in belt. The slim lined skirt of bright red is attached to a red, blue and white print blouse. From Charles Cooper.)

Patriotic Theme Will Be Used at Large Dinner Party

Mr. and Mrs. Albert H. Gleason will entertain at dinner at 7:15 Saturday night at their home, 2817 Columbus Boulevard, in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Richard Massey of Birmingham and Miami Beach and Mr. and Mrs. Henry B. Mack of New York, who are wintering at Miami Beach. The Gleason's have planned a party around a patriotic theme. Clifton Doll Benson will read a toast to the flag and Alexander Squibb will lead the 30 guests in singing "God Bless America." Invited, in addition to those to be honored, are Mrs. Benson, Mrs. Squibb, Mr. and Mrs. James J. Archbold, Dr. and Mrs. Donald C. Golp, Mr. and Mrs. W. Scott Deming, Mr. and Mrs. G. Seward Foster, Mr. and Mrs. Henry H. Geary, Mr. and Mrs. John Dolph, Mr. and Mrs. Christian A. Hansen, Mr. and Mrs. Emil C. Kischel, Mr. and Mrs. H. Lloyd Williams and Dr. and Mrs. William W. Walker.

Perk up your winter wardrobe with a printed ensemble. CBS actress Joan Alexander of "Story of Mary Marlin" chooses for late winter and early spring a two-piece outfit with an all-around pleated skirt and exaggerated star print top. The fitted jacket repeats the styling of the frock's neckline and deep pointed cuffs. (From Joseph Halpert-Style 469.)

Gloves to match your printed hat, frock or suit blouse is fashion's promotion for spring and early summer. CBS actress Judy ("Kate Hopkins") Blake wears a trim sailor in a gay yellow and white print on black background with a matching pair of eight-button-length gloves. (Ensemble from Mme. Paulin.)

Giant floral print on a white background is used by designer Violet Tatum for this tunic dinner frock worn by CBS songstress Ginny Simms. The sheath-like skirt, which is slit up the side fourteen inches for a bit of dash, is of pink coral crepe to match one of the floral hues.

Diary of a Beauty Authority

By HELENA RUBINSTEIN (In this article, the famed beautician tells how to entertain the reducing way) NEW YORK-This afternoon there will be a tea at my home for the benefit of a worthy defense organization and I shall be home early to supervise the table arrangements. Most of the women who will be present represent the type of alert, beauty-conscious American woman who likes to go places and do things, always keeping a watchful eye upon her figure and her complexion. For these women I shall serve non-fatten canapes and hors d'oeuvres and healthful, delicious fruit and vegetable juices. Slenderness need not bar sociability-a fact which, unfortunately, not many women have discovered. It is really a simple matter to entertain your dieting friends without adding a single calorie to their day. In fact, the afternoon tea hour in the Zurich Room, the beauty restaurant of my New York salon, introduced a fashion in non-fattening sociability which any woman can follow in her own home. In the Zurich Room a multicolored assortment of gay canapes and hors d'oeuvres appeared each afternoon to gladden the hearts of dieting women who liked to meet for tea and yet not be tempted to nibble themselves back to plumpness. These deceptive "mouthfuls" of non-fattening indulgences are made of raw fruits and vegetables skilfully rolled in whole wheat and other health breads. They are usually served with fresh fruit or vegetable juices, or with tea and lemon. Never does a lump of sugar or a gram of cream appear at the party. These "food for beauty" canapes and hors d'oeuvres are very easy to prepare and they always cause a sensation when they are served at a feminine gathering. The canapes are really rolled sandwiches cut into slender slices. For instance, there is the tiny bread ring with a slice of carrot fold for its center, which is made as follows: Scrape a slender carrot, sixing it down to even thickness; cut a thin slice of whole wheat bread lengthwise of the loaf and spread it smoothly with cream cheese, seasoning with chopped herbs. Lay the carrot on one side of the loaf and roll the bread around it. Seal the overlapping edge with cheese, then tightly wrap the carrot roll in wax paper and chill in the refrigerator at least three hours. Just ebfore serving, slice into thin rings. Radishes, cucumbers and strips of stuffed celery can be used in the same manner. For sweeter, non-fattening hors d'oeuvres, I always use fresh pineapple, pears and other fruits. Big, black meaty cherries, for example, are pitted, stuffed with cheese and rolled in cheesed bread and sliced into rings. One cherry makes four little rolled sandwiches, each of half dollar size. (In an earlier article, Madame Rubinstein offered her famous Seven-Day Diet Free of charge to any reader who wrote to this newspaper asking for it. Those readers who did not write at that time, or who have not previously seen the offer, may receive the diet by simply addressing Helena Rubinstein, care of this paper.)

U-TALK By BARBARA BROWNE

"Fred Waring, here we come!" is the cry of members of the men's chorus, who, under the direction of Robert Reinhart, are practicing for the college glee club competition sponsored by Fred Waring's Pleasure Time Hour. There will be regional contests, but the final competition is to be either in Carnegie Hall or the Metropolitan Opera House. Well, go to it, boys! Rush Week Modified Because of the war, even the usually hectic days of sorority rush week have been modified. Most groups had but one small party during the last week when formerly each gave three. The Chi Omegas entertained rushees with an informal tea at their house, the former Connors estate. A Western round-up was the theme of the Zeta Tau Alpha group, while the Delta Zetas chose patriotism to make their party different. Ya! Ya! The Kappa Kappa Gamma girls borrowed from the Swedish for their idea of a smorgasbord dinner. Purely collegiate was the party given by Sigma Kappa for the rushees. Really putting into effect the good neighbor policy is Miss Raquel Aguirreggaviria, whose home is in Cuba. Right now she is studying English at the U, so that she can take a post-graduate course at Columbia, next fall, specializing in education and sculpture. Raquel received her doctor of education degree at Havana University. After she finishes her studies at Columbia, she will return to Cuba to teach art in a high school there. The university students have fun trying to speak the little Spanish they know to Raquel, while she in turn enjoys speaking English to them, although she admits "the ingles is very difficult." She thinks that the University of Miami is very pleasant and interesting, and likes especially the fraternal spirit between professors and students. "The professors are so willing to assist the students," she explained. Students to Give "Royal Family" Members of Theta Alpha Phi, national honorary dramatics fraternity, have been busy lately making preparations for the presentation of "The Royal Family," by Ferber and Kaufmann, March 12-13-14. The cast so far includes Barbara Willock as Julia Kavendish, Evelyn Auslan-ston as Gwen, Mary Alice Kirton as Kitty, Lloyd Symansky as Dean, Manuel Roth as Wolfe, and Herbert Maltz as Joe. What a royal reception the tennis courts have had! Since they have been finished, both boys and girls have kept the courts filled. Many girls who never played before formed a learning group. Elected tennis "leaders" by this group were Helen Van Der Gill and La Verne Hunniecke. Athletics have reached a new high in popularity. The popular invitation around school these days is "How about a game of tennis?" der or Reece Greenfield as Fanny Cavendish, Shirley Goldberg

CALLING DRAFTED MOTHERS By ERAINE TURIN

Editor's Note: Mrs. Turin is a Coral Gables resident and mother of a draftee. She is an accomplished writer and publicist, and recently came on the air with a program for the mothers of boys in the service. A restaurateur said to me the other day: "Because of the war I'm having trouble keeping my help. So many of my men are being drafted and my best waitresses are leaving for defense jobs. And my customers don't seem to understand why we can't give them the service they've been used to. Somehow they don't realize we're in a war and are unwilling to make allowances. If only a bomb were dropped on our shores, would they wake up and stop demanding the impossible of us?" Unfortunately that restaurateur is correct. A bomb would change this attitude and make people more tractable in conforming to circumstances - no matter how troublesome those circumstances may prove to be. It would cause them to face reality; it would eliminate the daydreaming to which the thin ice of indifference inclines them before such a bomb is dropped. But that is a trait of our American 'people. For the most part, they are an apathetic lot when it comes to the true meaning of a war; not the outward meaning, which enlists the participation in war-time activities, and to which so many gladly respond. No. It goes much further than that. Until catastrophe is thrown upon them, the majority are given to think and say, "Nothing can happen here." Yet should catastrophe strike, ob-serve how quickly they will hasten to do that which should have been done before. Yet to do, under adverse conditions, one must "play for time," as General MacArthur recently put it. And playing for time, drafted mothers of our nation, unneces-sarily kills too many of our soldier sons. And what is so distressing to me is that such per-sons are interested than we-rely on our sons to save them-to fight the battles of blood, while they stay unconcerned till those battles come near to them. Drafted mothers of our nation, only you and I, who have sons in the armed forces, do not require a bomb to awaken us, to make us more patient with small inconveniences, to make us brook the minor sacrifices without complaints. Why? Because our sons are either in the battle area now, or they are being made ready to be there soon. And compared to that situation, all the minor inconveniences about which civilians are liable to become disgruntled are inconsequential. A bomb might give us more sudden fright, but no bomb could bring us closer to reality than the offering of a son-one's own flesh and blood -to the hazards of battle. To us, the drafted mothers of our nation, war is a grim reality, which must be faced and not disregarded. To be aware makes one prepare-makes one get busy to fortify himself against any eventuality. Refusing to accept the dangers that may present themselves keeps one snugly unguarded. And that is when catastrophe always strikes the hardest. On the other hand, let us be reminded that awareness to the hazards of war does not indicate one should indulge himself in hysteria or hysterical activities. Hysteria is not awareness, but rather the lack of desire to face that which one knows he must face; a state wherein the emotions are allowed to run amuck to ease or fill such a lack.
