X. D. U.R) Daisy Crowley, manager of a women's apparel store, said badland debutantes from the cow country finally have accepted the new look. After many protests, she ald. long-limbed lovelies from the sur-1 rounding range country have begun buying the longer dresses.

Now at ranch houses dances on Saturday nights, the swish of long skirts mingles with the jingle of spurs To some old timers, the r.ew look is reminiscent of the old West, in the days when evening attire was a curious mixture of feminine furbelows and masculine roughness. At first, the daughters of sage and saddle staged a rebellion. Miss said, but now they have succumbed to the dictates of fash-Ion. Miss Crowley, whose store depends on cow country patronage said that during the rebellion, girls from the range came to town on shopping tours, took a look in the store and walked out. "They were bluntly outspoken." she said, "and expressed their disgust in no uncertain terms." "Why should I be ashamed of that?" asked one, pulling up the leg of a tight-fitting pair of dungarees.

"Hell, the only time I get to show them off is when I dress up for a dance." Miss Crowley said that at first the girls "simply couldn't see themselves walking around in a long, slinky dress anymore than a cow poke could stand tie and tails." She said the badland beauties still were balking on gadgets like shoulder and hip pads and uplifts. Most of them don't need such deception, she explained. Cecilian Club Plans for Annual Christmas Vespers Arrangements have been completed for the annual Christmas Ve.sper program presented by the Cecilian Club, an organization spokesman announced today.

I waa stunned, a a VII JZ stood there cackling laughter me untu nis ugly lace turned a vivid red. "Get out," I hissed. "Get out!" He got out then but not before he managed to get across a smug feeling of self-satisfaction at my dismay.

I walked over to the window after a little while, and stood staring through the Venetian blind slits at the street below and the wall of the yellow building opposite. I don't think I was feeling very much of anything, except a cold sick emptiness as if someone had hit me in the stomach. So Jeff Haverson was married And to Avis Vaughn of all women. I don't exactly know why the fact that it was Avis affected me so strongly, except that she was so well, cheap. Somehow I would have expected Jeff to have had more discrimination when he picked a wife.

In my own mind I had been building him up to the stature of a very special sort of guy, as a woman always does before she falls in love with a man. The afternoon was half gone before I could force myself to go back to the set where Jeff and the others were at work. They had progressed to the scene in the library where Jimmy Peters he made a swell-looking detective was doing his stufT. I sat down in a chair and watched he rehearsal. It didn't thrill me now.

Avis Vaughn, Art Clcves, Madge Narney and Jimmy 1'cters might have been so many robots moving around under the bright lights for all I cared. The sound of Jeff's voice, curt, assured and impersonal, giving directions was like the prick of a kr.ife in a fresh wound. To shut it out I picked up a newspaper that happened to be lying on a chair next to mine and tried to concentrate my attention upon it a a IIUT I wasn't really interested in the day's news. I wasn't really interested in anything except thinking up some plausible excuse for leaving early, when JefT turned to me and said we'd go over to see the rushes of the morning's take as soon as they finished the scene they were on. The entire cast trouped along to the projection room.

The lights were on when we went in. I sat beside JefT, and Ben Morgan, puffing a cigar, came in and took the seat on the other side of him. The lights went off. There was the white rectangle of the screen for a moment dazzling our eyes and then it was filled with the scene filmed that morning. There v.re Avis Vauqhn and Art Cleves Avis walking across the room and the shadowy body in the foreground.

Avis and Art registered their panic and confusion and Avis went through her hysterical denial. Strange how much more real it seemed when seen on the screen than it had that morning when they acted it before the camera. The door behind them opened and Made Narney came into t' room. See paused just inside the door and stood looking at the body of the man on the floor and then she lifted accusing eyes toward Avis. I thtrk it h't rre almost as soon as it did JefT.

The room darkened and the scene began again and we all waited Jeff and I tense with the excitement of discovery, the rest alert with mystified expectancy. The preliminary action of the scene wound off and there was the final moment again.

Bleach Madge's hair and they could pass for twins! It was one of those unexpected resemblances that the camera sometimes brings out, like the one Detween Joan Bennett and Hedy Lamarr after Joan dyed her hair, mean. No wonder Jeff was excited. Here was the double he'd been coking for the girl who looked nough like Avis to fool any audi-mce into thinking it was Avis in i distance shot. And he'd had her the cast all the time.
