TV inspires plumage of colorful clothing
By Vernon Scott
HOLLYWOOD — (UPI)—If the plumage of male Americans has brightened in the past year, blame color television.
This is the calculated conclusion of Sy Devore, Hollywood's foremost haberdasher, who suits many a male video star in addition to providing leading men with movie wardrobes.
Sy contends that the more color sets sold, the bolder men become in their wearing apparel.
"STARS LIKE Dean Martin and Andy Williams and Frank Sinatra aren't afraid to wear bright colors." Devore explained. "And when American men see them on color TV they're encouraged to go out and buy some colorful clothes themselves."
According to Sy, oranges, green, mustard, burgundy, bright blues and yellow are becoming increasingly popular in slacks, sweaters, sports shirts and even sports jackets.
"Andy Williams has increased the sale of sweaters 100 per cent in my stores," said Sy at lunch in the Brown Derby, just across the street from his Hollywood establishment.
"HE'S DONE MORE for alpaca sweaters than all the golf pros in the business. Perry Como used to wear those sweaters, too, but he was in black and white and didn't affect the viewers as dramatically as Andy does in color.
"Color television has increased the demand for maroon and blue dress shoes. If a man sees Dean Martin wearing blue shoes he's going to feel better about wearing them himself."
Devore's contention is based on fact. He says men around the
Ping pongers' tourney bounces into new week
The Templin Hall ping pong tournament is in full swing as it enters its second week.
Of the 20 boys who entered the tournament last week only ten remain in the second round.
The boys play at their leisure anytime during the week and report the outcome to Steve Branden, counselor, chairman of the ping-pong tournament. The final rounds will be played next week in the Templin Hall lounges.
"IT'S NOT JUST New York and Southern California," Devore said. "I get letters from all parts of the country, and the big thing is color. The Madison Avenue look is on the way out. It's been limited to blacks, grays and somber blues for too many years.

"There's a new, natural look that I think is best illustrated on television by Ben Gazarra in 'Run for Your Life.' His wardrobe is for real men, not the college boy look."
Council lists camp gripes
Weekly meetings of the "gripe squad," formerly known as a camp council, are being held to help the administration know what the campers don't like.
Complaints on food, rules, and living conditions, brought to the representatives' attention by fellow campers are main topics of discussion. When possible, these are corrected.
IN AN OVER 90 PER CENT majority vote, Russell L. Wiley, director of the camp, has decided to look into the campers taking a trip to the Starlight Theatre.
At a suggestion by a representative, this week's dance will be a bootenanny.
The council is made up of elected representatives from each dorm and wing and is presided over by LeRoy Esau, supervisor, Joe Wiegand, Nancy Able, and Andy Soll, counselors.
WASHINGTON—(UPI) —Republicans in search of the way back to power have been urged to take a leaf from the Kennedy notebook—put the accent on youth.
Youth to get big push from GOP
THE REPORT, prepared by the conservative-oriented Senate Republican policy committee, was released last week. It placed heavy emphasis on the nature of the voters in the next decade.
New faces and fresh programs aimed at the young people who will come to dominate the electorate in the next decade will be a key to GOP rejuvenation, according to a frank report called "Where the Votes Are."
"Since party identification is at its weakest among voters in their early and middle 20's we suggest the presence of enoumous opportunity; opportunity to make these new voters Republicans; opportunity to reach these new voters in terms of their own problems, their own issues, their own needs and hopes," the report said.
IT IS TO THESE young voters that Sen. Robert F. Kennedy, DN. Y., as his late brother, President John F. Kennedy, has given much of his time and attention.

The report said "the decade head offers Republicans their first opportunity in nearly 40 years to establish themselves once again as the majority party in the United States."
It was 38 years ago in the 1928 GOP election victory of Herbert Hoover over Democratic presidential candidate Al Smith that the GOP began to lose control of the cities where it once held balance of power.
The "Cinderella of bacteria" will be discussed and studied by Christopher P. Sword, associate professor in microbiology, when he attends the Third International Symposium on Listeriosis.
Listeriosis is subject of talk by professor
The symposium will be held July 13-16 at the National Institute of Public Health at Bilthoven in The Netherlands. There will be representatives from many countries including the United States, Canada, Bulgaria, Yugoslavia, Italy, Germany, Denmark, The Netherlands, Britain, Sweden and Israel. There will also be representatives of the World Health Organization and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations.
The symposium, held every five years, is to help researchers all over the world know what are the latest findings on this bacteria.
THE BACTERIA. Listeriosis, got its nickname because it was one of the last bacteria to be discovered. This organism causes disease in a wide variety of domestic and wild animals (including cattle and sheep) and also causes several clinical forms of disease in humans. Among the human diseases caused are meningitis, encephalitis, and infectious mononucleosis-like disease. Abortions are sometimes caused by this bacterium.
Dr. Sword will present two papers at the symposium, entitled "Biochemical Aspects of the Listeriosis," by C. P. Sword and Martin Wilder, U. S. Public Heath Service (USPHS) predoctoral fellow, from Brooklyn, New York; and "Immunoglobulin re-
