April Easter Vacation BeckonsElS
As Students
As April makes It debut al
mst simultaneously with Spring
vacation and Easter, University
students will bid farewell to the
campus buildings and haunts for
several days and depart to var
ious locals.
The chief reason for the five
day holiday from classes is
Easter Sunday. Despite the dis
tances between the students,
many will observe the religious
holiday in approximately the
tame manner.
Church Services
Pending on the agenda for
many on Easter will be an open
ing "sunrise service. Most stu
dents will attend the regular
morning services at churches of
their own choice, and some will
even be present for Sunday
School. Churches in home towns
vill visited by faces not too
olten seen during the University
term.
Several churches throughout
the state plan all-day observances
tot the religious holiday, and
most will conduct evening scr-
ices in one form or another for
their congregations.
On the "relief from school
work" side of the picture, there
arc some students planning short
tups tor the vacation.

New fashions almost invariably
emerge from the preceding
season, in the opinion of Chris
tian Dior, noted designer.
"Fashion is more logical than
it appears to be," Dior explains,
citing flying panels as the fore
runner of the straighter lines
currently projected. Exceptions
sometimes occur, as in the case
of coats, where big, important
silhouettes brought forth a reac
tion now finding expression in
simple, straight silhouettes.
Dior also finds a direct rela
tionship between fashion and
current economic and political
conditions.
"Although designing represents
a product of the emotions rather
than the results of analysis, we
can look back on earlier fash
ions and see the relationship
clearly," he says. "For example,
troubled times usually are ac
companied by very feminine
styling."
Dior says the taste of Amer
ican women is constantly im
proving, and that he has ob
served increasingly high fashion
standards on recent trips to this
country.
Spring Sheers,
Fells Appear
First signs of sheers and new
spring felts are beginning to ap
pear in New York.
Emphasis in the sheer bracket
is on the little flower spiked cap,
with net crown. Felt spotlight
falls on medium-si7.e sailors and
brimmed profile hats with tailor
ed feather and ribbon touches.
Neutral colors trimmed with
high, curled coq feather and a
ribbon cocarde are being played
up to a great extent. A "capsule
sized, flower-garland caprice" of
net in cap lorm, edged in small
flowers and black velvet bows,
is featured also.
Natural straws with velvet
touches in small, head-hugging
shapes arc also demanding more
attention in the world of fashions.
Pointed up in this category are
