Friday, August 31, 1962 Drag Strip Found Safer Than Highway Bare Teen-Age Knees Key Styles in Block's Show THE INDIANAPOLIS NEWS By ANN REIN There will be plenty of bare kneecaps in Indiana high schools this fall. 4 ii ii ft Teen-agers, both on and off the runway at Block's high school fashion show yesterday, wore skirts baring the knees. Teen-agers were joined by parents at the preview in the store's auditorium. Among the parents at the show were Mr. and Mrs.

E. G. Mauck, who are as good-looking as their brunette daughter, Cynthia. As the Shortridge representative on the Block's sjl yN? I rA.I1 if jb high school board, she modeled in the show. Witt Sitting next to Kathy was Carol Morley, an Indiana Uni-versty junior who enjoyed Block's college fashion show so much she came to the high school show, too.

She felt most of what she saw yesterday would fit into a college wardrobe. OPINION SHARED BY MARIAN GIRL Stephanie Tschida, Marian College sophomore, shared her opinion. She was with her mother, Mrs. Frances C. Tschida.

Mrs. Andrew Swartzell, Rensselaer, and her daughter Sally stopped at the show during one of their five or six shopping trips yearly in Indianapolis. They were particularly intrigued with the little-heeled shoes. A group of Lebanon girls came to the show with Cathy Carr, the new board representative from that city's high school. Among them were Sarah Chavers and Dotty Darnell.

Bonnie Atkinson and Kathy West, who will enter Washington High School next week, saw their first high school show. Another first-timer was Becky Mowrey, Danville High School sophomore. By JUDY GILLIOM "Drag racing's safer than highway driving." This is Mrs. Robert Leighton's evaluation of the hobby she's enjoyed for the last 10 years. "It's easy to have wrecks on crowded highways," she says, "but there are only a few cars at a time on a drag strip." She and Mrs.

Lloyd Cox, Whittier, are the only two women who have registered to drive in the national championship drag races to be at Indianapolis Raceway Park today through Monday. Mrs. Cox and her husband were both scheduled to drive, but car trouble on the way from Albuquerque, N.M., has delayed their arrival until tomorrow morning if they make it at all. Roberta Leighton, 30, says her interest in cars began when she was 10. Her father, a mechanic, refused to let her help him rebuild a car, so she tore down her bike and rebuilt it.

She now does 90 of her own mechanical work. Son David, 7, who "knows every part in an engine," often helps his mother work under the hood. ONE SISTER MODELS FOR OTHER Blond Jay Lawrie, on last year's board, watched her brunette sister. Sue, model for the first time. They are the sisters of Annie Lawrie, now Mrs.

Richard B. James the first "500" Festival queen. Three Sacred Heart High School friends of Sue's came with Jay: Connie Rogers, Andrea Gilligan and Rosemary Morrison. Another board alumna is Kathy Hosier, who will enter Ball State Teachers College next month. The NEWS Photos.
