Hey Gals, You Won't Go Broke Buying That New Spring Dress
New York — (UP) — Full-skirted silk prints and rustling taffetas can be found this spring with price tags under $20.
And there's at least two- top, two-skirt combination in tafta that could see a gay miss through spring and summer for just about $30.
This costume has a high-buttoned navy jacket and full flared, high waisted skirt to match. Included for good measure are a cap-sleeved blouse in navy and white checked taffeta and a matching skirt, which doubles as a petticoat.
A beautifully-styled silk dress in turquoise and black polka dots has an under $20 tag. It comes with brief sleeves, an open shirt neckline with point collar, and a flared skirt edged with a pleated flounce. Another, A Eit Dressier
For a similar price there's a brighter print—green, pink, turquoise and white on black—in a slightly dressier mood. Its sleeves are cap, its neckline low and square, its skirt fulled with side front gathers.
For less than $15 here's a slim black crepe with taffeta trimmings for lunch-to-midnight smartness. The two-piece costume features a snug, midrift gathered tunic top cuffed in taffetta to match its high, crisp collar. The skirt is as slim as the lady will allow.
A navy crepe dress for just a few dollars more features similarly slim lines with a trick to the hip. The high-necked, elbow-sleeved bodice tops a skirt pegged at the hipline with tucks radiating from the waist. Everybody's Included
The older woman hasn't been forgotten in the medium price range, either. With between $20 and $30, she can walk in the sun in a hand-some black and white printed rayon, its skirt diagonally tiered for slimness, trimmed with black ribbon for accent.
Home Ec To Hold Family Workshop
Suitable for many ages is the two-piece army crepe dress with a polka-dot dash hanging into a skirt panel at one side below the jacket.
"Workshop," a conference on family life education sponsored by the home economics department, will be held on the campus, June 14 to 25.
Members of the conference will be adult and child education leaders from Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, and Oklahoma. Registration is limited to 100 and all applicants must have professional experience.
The first week of the conference will emphasize reading and discussion on child development and family relationships. Second week instruction will be on materials used in teaching.

Foster, professor of sociology and home economics; Mrs. Robert G. Foster, instructor of home economics, and Miss Helen Lohr, assistant professor of home economics.
Speakers from off the campus will include Dr. Margaret Meed, associate curator of the American Museum of Natural History, and author of "Keep Your Powder Dry;" Dr. Edward D. Greenwood, director of children's division at Menninger clinic, Topeka; and Dr. Evelyn Duvail, executive secretary of National Council on Family Relationship, and author of "You and Marriage."
