LACKING IN FASHION, IS REPORT—President Johnson is complimented for his taste in
clothes by men’s fashion authorities, but not so, his ladies. Lynda Bird, Lady Bird, and
Luci, says a women’s fashion publication in New York, wear their “hair too long . . . heels
too high ... why don’t they have some fun with fashion . . .?” The publication recom
mends that they “get their hair cut, wear their skirts shorter, wear some of the knacky
looks in fur and boots.”
