'MINI IS OUT' Guild Told Fashion Should Tempt, Not Startle Males which Miss Leonetti said is the look of class. "Out are shoepohsh eyebrows, screaming colors eyeshadow, Cleopatra eyeliners, Kabuki white faces and bloody looking mouths," she said. Clean Look In "The scrubbed skin and clean look is in. But remember that it takes 26 articles of makeup to achieve the no makeup look. The idea is to enhance your good points and camouflage the bad.

"See-through or transparent makeup with a high gloss is in now. More color is coming in for faces but lips must be subdued. Black is out, in eyebrows, eyeliner and mascara. A brown or brown-black color is much more flattering and should 'foe used sparingly. "The thick, heavy eyelash is out and the spindly, refined lash that looks like an eyelash is in.

Remember that the purpose ol makeup is to enhance, not to he obvious in itself," she said. Miss Leonetti imparted a final word of wisdom to the women. "You have to change your makeup and hair styles as the years go by. Too many women used the same color dipstick they began-with at age 16; And if you maintain the same look it shows 'just exactly how old you are FIESTA FLOWERS Susan Shonnord, left, and Tracy Gamble prepare paper flowers far Westridge School carnival Saturday, May 9, 11 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

Balloon Heads Out "Balloon heads are out," Miss Leonetti said. "Bubbles, teasing, geometric cuts, sausage curls, blatant tints and zebra-striped streaking are out. "In is the sleek, glossy look. The hair can be parted in the middle and pulled back in a top knot. Or you can go in for the super short cut almost to the scalp with shaggy edges.

Even if your ham is long it must be trimmed regularly and the blunt cut is' best. The general rule is that the head shape always must show," she explained. "Full wigs are going out except as a coverup when you don't have time to get your hair done. They lose their purpose when you appear with a different head every day. Hairpieces such as falls and wiglets are fine if look like your own hair.

Understatement is best," she said. Makeup changes, too, with the look of 197(1, Women 8 GSanffrlcgimc Frank Payne, Jr. has been elected president of the Junior League for the 1970-71 year.

BY SUB A VERY TimM Stcn Wriur ARCADIA The mini is out, said a member of the International Fashion Group, and Holy Angels a i rium resounded with cheers and applause. The audience, members of Mt. Alverno Guild were mostly older women who couldn't wait to get home and give their teen-age daughers the word. The. speaker, Miss Margo Leonetti, indicated the extreme mini was an abortive attempt of-women to follow a fashion which never existed anyway.

"And if you have the thighs of a bull you should never wear extreme minis," she said. Fashion Confusion Miss Leonetti admitted that not only are women confused about fashion now, "hut even the stores want to know what's happening." "However, there are two rules you can follow," she said. "One, stated by John Fairchild, editor of Women's Wear Daily, is 'good fashion should tempt a man, not startle The other, by Coco Chanel, is 'mode is often a farce in which too niany people take their roles too "Lengths are definitely jroing down hut, after all, there was no other way thev could go. "However, this should not be a major dilemma hecause I don't believe in extremes. When the mini is in, your hem should be slightly above the knee, and when the midi is in, it should be slightly below the knee.

And in figuring out your hem length you should take into account your body shape, leg shape and age." Hemline Controversy The hemline controversy has pushed color and fab-yic nearly out of the picture. But there are some new looks and in color. Miss Leonetti said. f'We have gone back to basics, such as black, navy, beige, brown and white. The hot tones are now seen in a essories.

Psychedelia colors in dresses are out. The prints that are in are the Midwest housewife type. "Fabrics are softer, feminine and clingy. They can be now that the belt is back because it looks well only on pliable fabric. "Pants are still important but I don't mean the pedalpusher type.

I 'mean pantsuits, a coordinated outfit and the jacket has to cover the derriere.

Mrs, Dorothy Lovret, 173S Chelsea Road, an elementary grade teacher in Los Angeles schools, said it is unfortunate that. San Marino has few minorities. Calling this. San Marino's loss, she said, "We need tn know other races and ethnic groups on a personal level." Mrs.

Lovret, who succeeds Norman Frank as head of the committee, said San Marino High School students have expressed to her a need tor greater association with other ethnic groups. "They have.said it comes as a jolt to suddenly find themselves with other races when they leave here," she said. "We simply can't isolate ourselves in a cocoon." Bringing about a change i the ci ty' eth i makeup will require a change in attitude, Mrs. "Lovret said. To this end stamp Mrs.

Dorothy Lovret Hmespholo the committee will continue its efforts, including a series of speakers expressing the views of minorities.
