Tomchin's skyscraper print was used by Chester Weinberg for a collection of long evening gowns. Julian Tomchin created African daisies on silk for Pauline Trigere's chiffon evening gown; white irises edged in pink on a leaf green for Bill Blass; white daisies on a pink worsted gabardine for George Halley's daytime costume and tulips on crepe for Donald Brooks.

lie gets his ideas ''anywhere and everywhere." "Fashions." said Tomchin, "is immensely logical. Kvery season is a development of the previous year. For example, to say that this is an era of choice, that 5 lengths of clothes are available, is logical." Discussing the current trend so-called "art deco" prints, Tomchin explained that the term is used to de- scribe patterns from 1920 to 1940. "It's a design period when clothes were long and lean like they are today," he said Tomchin designs a full otv lection of fabrics each season, then offers them to designers. He also works with individual designers to produce special fabrics for special design.

"It's like the chicken and the egg," he said. "Who knows whether the design fits the fabric or the fabric the design' 1 Sometimes Tomchin makes special fabrics with particular designers in mind. "You know, for example," he said, "that, (George) Halley makes terribly extravagant clothes and wants fabrics like that." He claims there have been changes in the type of fabrics people want over the past decade. "In the early '60s, the trend was toward weight. You couldn't make anything heavy enough," he said.

"Now, we're going into an era where we can't make anything light enough." Tomchin said he has no fa- vorilies among his designs. His collection for fall and winter this year includes the 3-dimensional "skyscraper" print used in a variety of colors by Chester Weinberg for evening dresses and the contrasting geometric print used by Donald Brooks for evening pants and 9-foot scarf.

A visitor to Boulevard Lanes found out only too well when he was bodily removed there Saturday night. Someone shoved him in the door about midnight and everyone knew he was there.

A security patrolman had to be brave and remove him. It's been a bad week at the office for our "tie-wearing staffers." One of our "star reporters" somehow managed to dip his tie in newly-filled cup of steaming black coffee, while another was fixing a quick glass of fresh orange juice before coming- to work, and instead of squeezing the oranges in the automatic juicer, squeezed his tie. He's got best wrinkled tie in town. Walked into the office Monday morning and found 3 new faces. Eloise Sor- quist, Jane Rogers and Jolene Limbacher have joined our editorial staff.
