Replacement will be by adobe bricks, made by state workmen from the clay found in the area.

At one time pleas were made to save the concrete wall because of the old-time advertisement displayed upon it. However, it was not a part of the original building and has no historical significance so the wall goes. When the new one is completed it will have the look of the 18110's. the period in which it was built by Gen. Mariano Vallejo.

Meanwhile fund-raising affairs go on for the building of the Sonoma Depot Museum a replica of the one destroyed, not by the passing of time, but by fire.

BY ALINE MOSBY PARIS (L'PI) Tapered, peg-top trousers, more emphasis on pants suits and loose, flowing dresses are the main trends so far in the Paris high fashion spring-summer collections. The final collections were presented by Hanae Mori, Per Spook and Alix Gres. The tassel was the trademark of the Hubert de Givenchy show. Giv- 1 f-t'tit -zgzz i i I i i i i 1 i 1 -it- A enchy forgot about buttons for suits and used cord ties with tassels dangling from the ends. Most of the evening wear also sported gold or colored tassels and one model reached the ultimate by-parading in tassel earrings.

Givenchy's daytime look was classic and slim with lots of wraparound skirts and shirtwaist dresses whose skirts opened onto matching underskirts. His evening wear got the most praise from buyers because of the elaborate fabrics including black chiffon embroidered all over with gold-colored thread. Many of the ev ening gowns were ankle-length versions of sporty shirtwaist dresses. Designer Serge Lepage again did a collection for the house of Schia-perelli. which is trying for a comeback in fashion after making only perfume since designer Elsa Schia-perelli died.

The audience liked a white wool coat dress, very full on top and with huge raglan armholes. that buttoned down the front. An evening cape of prune-colored faille taffeta lined in yellow satin had a yoke embroidered with glitter and ostrich feathers. Underneath the cloak was a brick-red long silk dress. Another Lepage gown had fringe falling from shoulder to waist.

Caftan-like gowns were made of silk printed with scenes like those on ancient Etruscan vases. nil rvVc 1 Program on aging offered Wednesday ROHNERT PARK A program on aging will be offered at 2 p.m. next Wednesday by the Rohnert Park-Cotati Library, 6600 Hunter Drive.
