3 Pounds Now Years Ago,55
The modern woman who is constantly watching her figure would certainly have had something to worry about had she lived in past ages when her costume alone would have added ten to 50 pounds to her weight.
Today's woman carries as little as three pounds of clothing in warm weather, which includes her shoes and hand bag. Her Elizabethan ancestors' party clothes often weighed up to 55 pounds.
The women of ancient Egyptian harems, although they were more scantily dressed, wore jeweled ornaments and metal girdles which made the average costume weigh six to ten pounds.
The iron corset of Shakespeare's day weighed close to ten pounds and although the Victorian woman wore only one pound girdles, their wool skirts, petticoats, and high topped shoes made their everyday costume weigh nearly 40 pounds.

Early 1900's Fashions Here
Fashions that were popular with early coeds at KU have been revived this season by the currently popular musical, "My Fair Lady," adapted from George Bernard Shaws' play, "Pygmalion."
The new mushroom-shaped hat, often set off by a plume or pin, is a direct descendant of the large hats of the early 20th century.
Higher Waists
For more formal occasions fashion designers are showing higher waists, with a generally high neckline or a V back set between long sleeves. There is more sparkle to the new better dresses and satin and Chiffon are again leading fabrics.
The longer skirts are throwing more emphasis on the shoes, where more delicacy is evident. The small Louis heel and pointed toe look just like the shoes the waltz used to be performed in.
Double-Breasted Coats
In the coat line, the long, straight, double-breasted coat is growing in popularity as is the cape, a feature of the early 1900's, for evening wear. With the emphasis this season on the "My Fair Lady" look KU coeds of 1956-57 are beginning to look very much like prototypes of KU coeds 50 years ago.
Approximately 220,000 Texans are employed in the state's petroleum industry which boasts an annual payroll of about $1 billion.
It's Furs, Alums, Mum Time Again
No alum's year is complete without a homecoming; her wardrobe complete without a fur coat, or her fur coat complete without a mum.
Traditionally the flower of fall and football games, the hardy chrysanthemum lends itself to the day's spirit. Its vivid color completes the picture of thousands of enthusiastic alums rooting for the Jayhawks. The red and blue "KU" in its center makes it known to all that the wearer is, and proud to be, a Kansas University alum.
After all, what's homecoming without alums without fur coats without mums?
Leather, Synthetic Popular For Men
It's leather, at least it looks like leather. But is it? Chances are its a leather-like knit nylon, a synthetic which is making some people look twice when it is used.
Leather-like knit nylon and leather will be used a great deal in men's wear this year. They will be used in trench coats and in leather jackets with horn buttons. They will also be used a lot as a contrasting fabric with corduroy, wool jersey and wool to give garments a well tailored look.
Look for them. They're in the shops now. ___
More than 4,000 formulations of insecticides are employed as weapons to battle the more than 93,000 different kinds of insects, ticks and mites which infest the United States.
