The awed and grateful testimony of both groups boils down to the hard fact that the Van Doren personality and performance on teevee has made erudition not only respectable but desirable, especially among junior and senior school students. Youthful Tribute "Cripes! Look at the dough that guy is making just answering questions out of books!" is reported as the reverend tribute of the young to Van Doren, the living encyclopedia. A grateful mother of two teen-aged sons (14 and 16 years) reports that since Van Doren's earnings hit the mark, there has not been a single argument in the household about homework, or any bellyaches if you will excuse her expression about reference work at the school library. The older boy has finished the first three volumes of the encyclopedia and is doggedly going for six, while the younger boy has just about polished off Dickens. "If Charles Van Doren can only hold out another two years, we may get our savage educated," reported a second mother.

"We have discovered that Johnny can read when he has an incentive, and his incentive now is to get on a quiz show and earn as much as his hero." A professorial friend on the college level says that the advent of Van Doren has opened the eyes of innumerable students to the real advantages of a college education. Road to Respectability "None of them," the prof reports, "has discovered a better way to make so much money easily and rapidly, short of inheriting a printing press from a rich relative. I shouldn't be surprised if Van Doren doesn't make a Phi Beta Kappa key respectable." For the first time in educational history, the greasy grind is not dismissed as an odd ball and social misfit. Van Doren's masculinity, good looks, charm and unfailing modesty, and his knowledge of baseball no less than the quantum theory, have suddenly elevated the egghead to the position once held by the football captain. But if Van Doren has at last made teevee into the great educational instrument the prophets have been predicting, his rival and challenger, Mrs.

Vivicnne Nearing, has helped, too.

There is no question of age here; a jumper dress is suitable for all ages. You are right in thinking that a light blouse and dark dress will minimize the difference between shoulders and hips. You could get the same effect from a dark dress with long sleeves, wide scoop neck and white fill-in, but a jumper is actually more practical. Have your jumper made very simply in a plain, good wool, in a dark, basic color. You can then wear it with a number of blouses; a crisp cojton shirt for daytime, a silk blouse for afternoon, perhaps a fussy, sheer blouse for late day.

Since you are especially fond of jumpers, this is your best Dear Miss Blair: I am planning to mako myself a spring suit. Can you suggest a fabric that I can wear not only for spring, but for cool summer days as welly I don't want to make "myself a wool suit as the season is so short. Most designers these days are thinking the same way you are about spring suits, and you'll find in their collections a high proportion of suits in such fabrics as silk tweed, cotton tweed, silk linen and other lightweight, textured materials. Choose such a fabric in a neutral color a monotone is better than a bold tweed pattern for summer wear. Dear Miss Blair: Can you give tips on hemming wool jersey I find that using seam binding sometimes makes a bunchy hem.

Try this method. First, using pinking shears, picot the ede of your fabric. Then, using a very fine stitch, machine-stitch around the edge about 'i inch in from your picot.
