Fishing Fly Colors Inspire College Fashions for Spring
By MARY TYSON
The beautiful colors of fishing flies were the inspiration for the fashion show presented by Miss Olive Berry, College Fashion Adviser for the Simplicity Pattern Co. Inc., and sponsored by the home economics department yesterday afternoon in Strong auditorium.
Mazie Harris, college sophomore dressed in a fishing attire, was "fashion casting her line for spring" at the side of the stage during the program, in front of a backdrop of fish net and seaweed. This was entwined with paper fish carrying out the colors of the costumes.
The fly "Laurentide" inspired a three piece suit of coordinating rose hues, while "Light Cahill" gave rise to a cream and tan squaw skirt outfit. A bright shrimp colored middy cardigan jacket and pleated skirt is another example of successful color, using "Trout Fin" as a pattern.
The models for the show included the following: Phyllis Adams, Jackie Mills, Shirley Dean, and Anne How-
Anyone who was "fishing for fashion" had an opportunity for a good catch in the way of new color combinations such as that shown by the model in the picture to the left. It used olive green and chartreuse after the fishing fly. "Olive Dun."
Wedding Held At Danforth
"Yellow is perhaps the most important color this spring," Miss Berry said. Out of the several flies in yellow she picked "Yellow May" for a fitted coat under which was worn an embroidered cotton crepe dress. "White Miller," "Blue Damage," and "White Miller" were few of the other colors Miss Berry presented in varied ensembles for both casual and dress occasions.

Street scene in Tehachapi after last July's earthquake.
...EARTHQUAKE...
In the predawn of last July 21, the most severe California earthquake since 1906 struck the small town of Teachapi.
Walls were collapsing, buildings were folding. The town's telephone office shook to its foundation. But the night operator remained at her switchboard until it went dead. Main cables to the office were pulled to the ground when a nearby wall caved in.
This was at 4:50 A.M.
By 8:30 A.M. telephones were set up on the edge of town for use by the Red Cross and other emergency workers.
By late afternoon, the telephone switchboard was working. Tehachapi residents were able to contact friends and relatives concerned about their safety.
By 9 P.M. two TV stations were sending live telecasts of the damage. Telephone men had established a radio-relay system in less than 12 hours.
It was a typical disaster—brutal and unannounced. But telephone men were prepared. They quickly restored communication when it was needed most. They demonstrated the resourcefulness and technical skill typical of telephone people.
