Newspaper Page TextPAGE FOUR SOCIAL NOTES It was Sunday, September 11, 6 P.M. The weather was sultry and far too warm for September, but fashion shows bring women out by the dozens, and there we were sipping a delectable punch and breathlessly waiting to view the new selections of Fall hats designed by Mable — Mable San ford Lewis, that is. The setting for the fashion show was the very lovely home of Mrs. Geneva Haugabrooks, on Wood mere. The elegance of the home provided just the right atmos phere for dramatic presentations of the luscious original chapeaus. It was not a long wait before Mable came out and introduced her models and presented the audience with a dazzling collec tion of hats that sent up sighs, murmurs, “ahs!” and “ohs!” It was a display of alluring and reckless imagination, as well as talent. The audience - participation added a dimension of convivial informality. Hats that caught the individual eye were modeled by How Will You Rate? by Jai and Cee Keeping on your toes in college will involve more than merely staying awake in class and re membering who wrote what. Time spent in the classroom will con stitute at the most only one-fourth of a day, and this only five or six days a week. With the heavi est possible schedule, you are left with a total of five and one-half full days worth of hours to some how live through. Granting a normal amount of sleep, the most cunning student will still have approximately three and one-quarter days during which he is liable to social criticism. You’ll be listened to, looked at and generally “sized up” by those with whom you come in contact. And the big question is, “How will you rate?” Here are a few suggestions to follow in often met situations. INTRODUCTIONS The easiest way to make an in troduction is to say: “Mrs. Jones — Mr. Smith," and always put the woman’s name first. No mat ter what their ages, a man is presented to a woman unless it is the President of the United States, royalty, or a dignitary of the Roman Catholic Church. If the people being introduced are of the same sex, the younger and less important person is presented to the other, whose name comes first Example: “Migs Important, this is Miss Not-So-Important.” NEVER say: “Mrs. Jones, shake hands with Mr. Smit” or “Mrs. Wilson, I want you to make the acquaintance of Mr. Smith”. Ex amples of the correct form are: “Mrs. Casey, I would like you to meet Dr. Kelly." Or “Ginger Green, this is Sid Chaires.” When introducing a stranger to a group, it is not necessary to repeat his name to each person.

Also, each woman in the audience se lected the three hats that ap pealed to her the most — a dif ficult feat, since they all were ravishingly beautiful! The hats featured were in vari ous styles and fabrics. There were tarns, helmet hats, derbys, tur bans, pogoda hats, and others of Oriental influence, and the “cup cake” hat for the cocktail hour. Some of the Oriental hats with intricate colors and gold braid, were presented with matching bags. Fabrics used were: matte velvelt, paisleys, real fur, fur cloths, satin, and silk surrah. Combinations of these various fabrics were surprisingly effec tive. The Hat Soiree Continental was given in order to raise funds for the Geneva Haugabrooks Scholar ship Fund. * * * * The members of Club Kamelyas and their guests had a delightful weekend in Savannah, Ga. The Bronner Bros. Retreat was their place of residence. However, many hours of fun was spent on Hilton Head Beach. The club members enjoyed relaxing, swim ming, boat-riding and fishing.

It’s a suit that has never been seen in fashion be fore. Yet, it is so important that — for the first time in the history of modern fashion — a first-rank designer has based his entire suit collection on it. I’m talking about the city culotte suit. And the de signer who is featuring culottes exclusively in his new collection is the famous Norman Norell. The divided skirts in the Nor man Norell collection are so ex pertly cut that — at a standstill — there isn’t a sign of division. But in motion — walking, or get ting out of an automobile — you begin to see the common sense of the designs. So strongly does Mr. Norell be lieve in the divided skirt that he has done something unprecedented in the history of great designers. He has offered to lend — to any designer who wants it the pat tern for his own expert and per fectly fashioned culotte. He real izes that an elegant and useful fashion such as this can be dis torted. even killed, by badly made, badly fitted versions. gun a year of fun and bridge, after having spent a summer of relaxing, vacationing, and other pleasures the summer months be stow. The first meeting of the season was held Saturday with Juanita Elliot as hostess. The members had a delightful time which was blighted only by hav ing to say good-bye to Ritchie Dean Williams who is leaving for Stanford University.

Jumping With Joi By Emarie Joi Thompson September Daze — When libraries are full and shows are empty — — When swimsuits come off and sweaters come on — — When teens and teachers get swinging together — — When girls are the teasiest and styles are the skeeziest — That’s September daze! No foolin’, these are the times when the social scene is as de serted as a lunch counter after a “sit-in” demonstration. The “trail bosses” (teachers) are riding herd hard now because that study trail gets real rugged some June for “strays” who get out of step in September! As a matter of fact, however, most teens are solidly with this bit of sweating for edu cation, employment and citizen ship. The “mavericks” who “flack off” really belong in Squaresville. And speaking of Squareville, there are: Teens We Can Live Without: LOUDMOUTH LOUIE STAND-’EM UP STAN BIG I, SI NOSE-UP ROSE TITTERING TILLIE PHONY TONY DIZZY LIZZIE FUSSY GUSSIE — and you name your pet peeves! Pallid Salad When all those pretty, pale chicks swooshed across the screen during the Miss America pageant, it was sorta pallid salad compared with the Miss Universe contest when that cool kitten.

The way so many fan-teens (and others) don’t cheer at foot ball games really had the cheer leaders wailing in the stadium last season. Here’re these leaping lead ers cheering until their pumps are pounding, and there’re the fans acting like society night at the Met. When our boys are out there stretching sinews and cracking craniums, win or lose for the glory of dear old Tum-de-dum, let’s let our tonsils go and give out Hip-Hip with a sonic boom! We might just send our mighty warriors over the goal line on sound waves! Oops! James Rachel, Treasurer of the Sportsmen Club, was reported as “James Paschal” in our last week’s bomb. It got a bit “con foozed”. James Rachel is not the uncle of Corliss Paschal, and James Paschal, who is the uncle of Corliss Paschal, is not a mem ber of the Sportsman Club. He is one of the “Bros” in Paschal Bros. S’Sorry about the fluff. Tid-Bits My Aunt Belle and Uncle Hubie Jackson are back from the Olym pics in Rome. It was a real gasser, so they say, and don’t we know it! The next one will be in Tokyo. So put your “skins” in the piggie. Casing the young tan teen athletes who’re fast making the “brain and brawn” scene, it should be even more exciting than the last one.

The assorted colors begin with the luscious grape hues, which are beautiful with the purples and blues and ends (or do they?) with the brown or coppery hues that are devastating with the tobacco tones of the new winter fabrics. Avon has three dazzling new fall shades: “Full Stop”, a vir brant red, “Flash Pink,” and “Russet Rage”, an Autumn hue, tinged with Paris brown. Cutex’s “Sugar Plum”, Revlon’s “Grape Icing”, Charles of the Ritz’s “Gold Dust Rose” and Lilly Dache’s “Cattleya” are exciting with shades of pink or purple. Three intriguing reds are Ger maine Monteil’s “Flordia Red”, lovely with any color but mauve; Coty’s “Cardinal Red”, exquisite with black and vivid clothes: and Max Factor’s new “Red on Red”. All these are new and different. For coppery and tawny colors try Helena Rubenstein’s “Golden Smoke”: Elizabeth Arden’s “Cop per Bronze”; or Juliette Mar glen’s “Porcelain Apricot” which is awe inspiring and destined to become a favorite in the fashion able woman’s wardrobe. drop”, will be a jiving Junior.
