"One or two came (to school wearing the dresses) at the beginning of the school year, but we just made the policy that the dresses were not for school attire. We have no problem now. I think the girls have forgotten about it." Just A Fad' Laura M. Lorraine, dean of girls at Analy Union High School, Sebastopol, says, "We Xnll.t 1 I "r1 'y lem because, when the girls first thought of wearing them.

told them to wait. I conferred with the principal, and we agreed that it's just a fad. If the long dresses became the usual style of dress again, it would be different. But for now, it's just a fad." Miss Lorraine cautioned that "It would be rather difficult to hurry up a crowded staircase in a Granny dress. They really aren't appropriaie for wear in a place of business.

I told the girls they can wear them to the games and the dances if they want to, and I've noticed that they do. But, we don't want them to wear the dresses here at school. I think the girls realize how inappropriate the dresses ire," said Miss Lorraine. "Personally, I don't see anything wrong with the dresses," says Mrs. Betty Miles, deant of girls at Sonoma Valley High School, Sonoma.

"I'd rather see the hemline down to their ankles than up around their necks! We've had no problem here. No girls have worn them to school." What would happen if a girl at Sonoma Valley High did wear a Granny dress to school? "Nothing," says Mrs. Miles, "I think, sometimes, the less said about something, the sooner it passes." "No Problems" "We have had no problems whatsoever." says Mrs. Edna Parker, dean of girls at Santa Rosa High School. "Only two girls have worn the Granny dresses to school and, after I talked to them, there was no hostility nor was there a repetition "We don't really have any 'rules' in regard to the dresses the girls have pretty much made their own rules.

Santa Rosa High School girls always seem to dress in a conservative manner as if they were going to a place of business and they feel that the Granny dresses are more for 'relaxing at home' than for an active school life Mrs. Parker concludes, "Granny dresses are definitely not a 'problem' at Santa Rosa High School they are non-existent by the girls' own tastes." "They haven't been wearing them here," says Kay Smith, dean of girls at Montgomery High. "In fact, I've only had two or three requests. Granny dresses are casual dresses and are inappropriate for wear at school. They were designed as casual dress lounge wear.

We have no problem here." Says John Kateley, counselor at Healdsburg Junior High School, "We haven't had a prob lem. A few girls have asked (if they could wear the dresses to school) but we don't allow them to wear them to school." Girls Inquired Eunice Leowke, dean of girls at Petaluma High School, says, "A few girls inquired about the dresses at the beginning of the year, and I discussed the sub ject with our principal He 1 happy art of combining highly imaginative and highly appearing Christmas presents tn unusually pleasing ways, try surprising some one with such an unexpected delight as a floral fragrance slipped into the folds of a timer printed peignoir, a jm giit certificate hidden inside i gtan ourousfy beaded evening bag, a gfittering, zingy dinner ring tied onto a dinner skirt or a just-the-right-sbe pair of kid gloves tucked into the pocket of a fur coat but, the quintessential Christmastime 1965 pleasure is the discovery that each )m gift comes one of these delightful jrn gift boxes.

They're very unbecoming." Wear In The Home' "I think it's all right to wear them around the home," says Linda Morgan, a freshman at Santa Rosa Junior College. "But I don't think anyone should wear them out (in public) anywhere.

To me, the Granny dress is sort of a duster to be worn in the home." Mrs. Ronald Rolph, president of the Saturday Afternoon Club, has her opinion, too. "I dare say, I would take a rather dim view oi girls wearing them to school. I have seen them in places where they are most at tractive, but I don't think they are appropriate for school at tire." Mrs. Rolph is the mother of three daughters, one an elemen tary school pupil, one a college student and one a working girl.

"No, I don't think the modern woman should wear an ankle-length dress out in public except for a formal gathering," says Mrs. Lorraine Conn, moth er of a high scnooi ooy ana a junior college boy. "Hostess gowns are for entertaining at home. They are very feminine and I like them very much. But they shouldn't be worn on the street." Now that the fashion world is becoming accustomed to the Granny dress, something new is about to sweep into the style trend.

The newcomer, called the Dolly Rocker, originated in England (home of the "Rock and has already overtaken Europe. Apparently, the biggest attraction about this particular dress is the fact that it sells for an inexpensive price (somewhere under $5), is only worn once and then thrown away!
