Show "GAY GADGETS" Associated Newspapers WNU Features. By NANCY PEPPER BOY CRAZIES LOOKS AS IF THE BOYS ARE TAKING A LAST FLING AT TRICKS AND FADS JUST BEFORE THEY GO INTO UNIFORMS. AT ANY RATE. HERE ARE SOME OF THE GREWSOME REPORTS WE GET ABOUT THEM FROM THEIR GIRL FRIENDS. COLOR BLINDERS Boys are dyeing dye-ing their, corduroy slacks in "hot" jj colors such as purple and red. ' " Whew! Some have A'-TrS dyed each leg 8 different color-l color-l j DM -uick' Jackson, XyUr YELLOW IS f MELLOW That's what the boys must think, 'coz from Coast-to-Coast the smoother wolves are going in for yellow corduroy slacks and yellow terry cloth sweat shirts. And, though it's hard to believe, be-lieve, we hear that boys are bleaching bleach-ing a streak of yellow up the center of their hair crew cuts and all. Say it isn't so! FREEDOM OF THE KNEES Must be the heat, or something, but boys are rolling their summer slacks and jeans up to the knees. Clip clothespins help to anchor 'em. Girls wear their overalls like this, too, the copy kittens. PARTY SPIRIT WONDERFUL, THE WAY YOU TEENSTERS HAVE GEARED YOUR VACATION GOINGS-ON TO THE WAR EFFORT. SOME OF YOU ARE GIVING PARTIES WITH-A-PURPOSE; OTHERS ARE FINDING FIND-ING NEW WAYS TO HAVE FUN i WITHIN PRIORITY AND RATIONING RATION-ING LIMITS. IN CASE YOU'RE WONDERING WHAT TO DO THE NEXT TIME THE GANG MEETS AT YOUR HOUSE HERE ARE SOME O. K. SUGGESTIONS: SALVAGE PARTIES One way to collect salvage is to charge admission admis-sion to your party. For instance, collect at least four tin cans from everyone at the door. Another way is to send your guests out on a salvage hunt the same idea as a treasure hunt, only more useful. The couple that brings back the biggest collection of salvage (metal, rubber, fat or silk or nylon stockings and so on) wins the prize. And it doesn't take a smart girl to guess that the prize is War Stamps. RATION REMINDER When you invite the gang to your next party, tell them that everyone must come in a strictly ration and priority free outfit. Anyone wearing any article that is rationed or on the priority list will have to buy a War Stamp as a forfeit. For instance, girls have to use toothpicks instead of bobby-pins; bobby-pins; they must wear unrationed playshoes; their skirts must fasten with buttons instead of zippers. FOR GIRLS ONLY If the boys in your crowd are already 18, they probably have gone off to keep an important date with Uncle Sam. That leaves you gals on your own, doesn't it. Well, make the best of it with "Slumber" parties. Invite all the girls to your house for supper sup-per and to spend the night. Slumber Slum-ber is the one thing you DON'T have much of at a "Slumber" party, but you DO have fun. |
