By DEE LOWKAXCE NEA Service Correspondent HOLLYWOOD, July 7 The clothes worn these days at the Hollywood Park Race Track mark a new high in fashions for film- dam. Not as nationally famous as Santa Anita, Hollywood Park is the haunt of the younger film folk. Young styles highlight the boxes and grandstand and will be found at this track for the next two months of its season. Most noticeable this week was the rage for a new off-shade with a greenish cast, not to be confused with chartreuse.

It turned up in suits, coats, dresses, hats and accessories and appears to be stamped as the newest color for West Coast wear. Jean Parker's plaid fitted jacket featured this yellow combined with black, and her straight skirt and large casual felt hat were bolh of solid yellow. Geraldine Fitzgerald used this rather daring shade more subtly. On her sheer gray woolen cut slenderly through the waist, with inverted pleats back and front for skirt had a wide, notched collar and deep cuffs of yellow linen. With it she vore a big gray straw sailor with a yellow band.

Auburn-haired Margaret Hayes went for the new yellow with a vengeance. Her classic gabardine suit was unbroken yellow, her throated silk shirt and huge off- the-face hat were brilliant green. YOUNG MOVIE STARS SPONSOR RED SHADES Not as new to the eye, but even more generally popular than the yellow, is the craze for all tones reds that the movies' youthful femininity seems to be sponsoring this year. Everywhere you look, the sidelines are spotted with reds of all sorts. Probably the most simple sports costume 1 have seen at the track worn by Priscilla Lane, an avid race enthusiast who had ducked a final retake on "Million Dollar Baby" to attend the open- ng.

Made of jersey in wide red and white stripes, her dress had a set-in belt, a surplice neckline and wrap-around skirt. Wonder- liilly cool for the glaring heat of track, it is the sort of dress to double nicely for afternoon teas or spectator sports. Much more formal was the dress worn by brunette Marshall. Stripes, too. in black and white jersey for the knife-pleatrd all over with huge, brilliant red roses.

Her long- waisted bodice was black jersey. one of the huge red roses appliqtied on her right shoulder. With it star of "Singapore Woman" wore an off-the-face cartwheel of bright red milan with a cut-out facing of matching red felt. Red suede gloves and a red straw envelope bag completed her show-stopping costume. A thin wool shirtmaker of fireman red was Maris Wrixon's choice for the afternoon, while Ann Sheridan complimented her blond coloring with a black linen two-piece dress topped by a felt, vagabond of Chinese red felt with a tall crown.

Glorifying Yourself SOME DON'TS FOR GIRL WHO DOES WANT TO REDUCE By ALICIA HART (NEA Service Staff Writer) Within-the past few weeks several mothers and a couple of aunts, who have young nieces staying with them for the summer, have written for advice on what to do about the adolescent girl who is greatly overweight. First of all. the 12-year-old who is 20 or 30 pounds overweight should be taken to a family doctor for a complete physical examination. This is important. It is a mistake for the layman to try to prescribe treatment.

After the physical examination the doctor advises otherwise a no-eating between- meals rule should be strictly enforced. If between-moal nibbling there must be, let it be nibbling on oranges or celery or raw carrots rather than on cakes, cookies or' candy. CUT OX SWEETS. LIQUIDS The child should not, be allowed to have dessert more often than once a day. Candy ought not to be eaten more often than once a week until she has lost the necessary number of pounds.

Three glasses of milk and three of water ought to be a sufficient amount of liquids per day. Tht matter of liquids should be discussed thoroughly with the doe- tor, of course. Do not encourage plump children to cultivate a taste for highly seasoned foods or fried dishes. And do make summer salads so tempting that they will eat huge ones for lunch instead of starches and sweets. REWARD FOR REDUCING One mother we know persuaded her 13-year-old daughter to eat more sensibly by letting child learn more about food and cooking.

The little girl becamt familiar with the caloric content of various dishes; she kept a ca- lory chart in the kitchen and, after each meat, wrote down the number of calories consumed. At the end of each day, the score was added. BRITAIN SPEEDS UP SUB WARFARE IM MEDITERRANEAN BY SINKING AXIS VESSELS LONDON.
