Show FGAY GADGETS" Associated Newspapers WNU Features By NANCY PEPPER WAISTLINERS Pull op a fox bole and fall in while we give with the goo on new belt Ideas. Ever since we first told yon about the boom in belts, you've been sending in tricks to tie around your waistlines. Here are our favorites. Picture Gallery Nothing can calJ attention to a slim waistline more effectively than a belt made of smooth squares of wood, strung together on leather leath-er or yarn, and decorated with snapshots of your friends. Shellac the pictures or coat with color- less nail polish to preserve them. Cork Tip Salvage all the little flat corks from the tops of coke bottles. They make giddy girdles if you string them on yarn. Decorate to taste with decals, initials, buttons or beads. Heart Condition Cut hearts out of red felt; sew them together or string on ribbon, and tie around your waist. Of course, you embroider the initials of every boy you date on the hearts. Is your waistline too small to accommodate all of them? Buttons to Match Bet you didn't know you can now buy leather belts with a set of six leather buttons to match the buckles. The cutest style has a heart shaped buckle and matching heart buttons. Sew four buttons on a blouse, use the other two for earrings, wear the belt around your skirt and you're his Dream GirL SMARTY HAS A PARTY "Smarty" is you If you carry out some of the good-time gags report- ed by, the B.S.B. (That means "Bobby Sox Brigade," of course.) Is the gang going to sit around your parlor looking like fugitives from a funeral and singing "An Hour Never Nev-er Passes," or will they want to stay on long after train time? It's up to you! Record Race Each couple picks a piece of paper with the name of a song instead of a number on it. As each record is played, the couple holding the name of the song must leave the floor. Play only parts of each platter unless you want the elimination to last all night. That would be O.K. for the gal who's paired off with a real Boomer Boy, but bow about the chick who picked the Number One Drip for her partner? part-ner? A cute way to get partners together for this Record Elimination is to write the first line of the chorus on the boy's slip of paper and the second line on the girl's. Makes it harder and more fun. Fix-It-Fiesta Are you planning to open a Teen Canteen? Has the school asked you kids to fix up a special Rec Room for yourselves? Then announce a Fix-It-Fiesta, where everyone attends in old clothes, ready to work. Refreshments Refresh-ments are served when the job is done. Indoor Scavengers Each couple gets a pile of old magazines, a scissors scis-sors and a list of items they must find. First prize goes to the couple who completes their list in the shortest short-est time. You'll have a good load for the paper salvage drive the next day! |
