Decker Ever since interior decorators stopped being dictatorial in favor of encouraging homeowners to select furnishings with which they the homeowners would enjoy living, homes in general hav'e gained in personality.

It took a strong woman, not so long ago, to fly in the face of matching three-piece living room sets and dining room appointments that just had to include a buffet, a ling influences on cliff dwelling. The two views below, form a setting on display in Contemporama, com To Wed L. J. Turner bine "Neva-Rust wrought Yesterday's exhibitors included Ben Reig, Hansen Bang, Foxbrownie, Joseph Whitehead, Anthonyv Blotta, International tNeckwear Fashions and Nettie Rosenstein who was hostess at dinner at Sherry's. Significant in the showings was the popularity of gray for Spring.

Suits and dresses in pearl gray and smoke gray are being shown by nearly every manufacturer. Most effective is the agate taffeta of Ben Reig who showed a dress in agate gray rayon taffeta with a pleated jutting peplum. The skirt hem was lined with a horsehair dust ruffle. Navy is a strong favorite for the coming season in wools for suits, sheer crepes, georgeUe and chiffon for dresses. Foxbrownie favors the wool dress with taffeta bodice worn with a matching suit jacket.

Hansen Bang's lounging and casual clothes Include something new in the ankle-length taffeta culotte and the voluminous house coat of shimmering platinum satin made with wide kimono sleeves.

By MARGARET MARA Visiting fashion writers are seeing a plush-lined and generous New York under the careful she'pherding of the New York Dress Institute which invited them from far and wide to attend the 10th national press week that started Monday. Open-handed dressmakers, milliners and accessory manufacturers are playing hosts to the ladies at breakfast, luncheon, cocktails and dinner and in between they trek through countless showrooms where smart models parade the New Look.

And that isn't all! Lavish gifts of costume jewelry, scarves, cosmetics, flowers and candy are handed around, thank-you-for-coming gestures by the members of the fashion houses. The writers, who represent newspapers, magazines and radio stations from nearly every State, Canada and Australia as well as European and South American countries, sat through seven fashion shows yesterday. Garment Center Gathering Five of the shows were gren at 498 7th where the ladies of the press trod velvet carpets and sat for hours on gold chairs while mannequins rustled past in Jaffeta petticoats and dresses. One of the amusing incidents was the excited exclamation in a multitude of accents from the deep South, the West and Down East that greeted the surreptitious showing of black taffeta pantalets under a daytime tissue crepe. The straight-legged undergarment, which had had a fluted flounce from just below the knee, was worn in lieu of a petticoat.

Taffeta petticoats are being sold with ensembles, and one white with black dot dress showed a half-inch of bright red taffeta below the dress hem. Flanigan of Canajoharie, N. and the late Mr. Flanigan, was 'if' 1 married to Joseph Patrick Dol- I 1 If i-alL lard, chief boatswains mate, U. S.

By RUTH G. DAVIS Society Editor It was Prom Time for Bishop Loughlin Memorial High School last week. The seniors held this auspicious event in the lovely Music Room of the Hotel Biltmore, Manhattan, just as the Spring grads did last year. It was a night for the boys and girls to remember.

And although they probably won't need any reminders, the 100 couples all will have souvenirs which consist of an album of about 50 pictures taken at the dance. Each girl received a gold bracelet with a heart attached engraved "Loughlin Senior Prom, Jan. 9, 1948." THE PRINCESSES ALSO HAVE mementos of the prom.

We have achieved as great, if not greater, financial success than they, although material things have never been of prime importance to me. And Bill is such a fine character that I can't believe there is any petty jealousy or attempt to deflate my ego.

Perhaps I am just hypersensitive where he is concerned. Thank you for any insight and help you may give me. E. G. Man's Attitude Is Competitive DEAR E.

G. There is striving for supremacy here, but mostly in Bill's unconscious, I think. Your birth gave him no joy. Hence from earliest awareness you sensed a strong emanation of disapproval- from him. Bill's manner indicates a tacit general understanding in childhood that he was unmistakably his mother's favorite.

Time to Discard Childish Rubbish This is my interpretation of the significance or causation of your so-called overwhelming inferiority complex in relation to Bill. And the cure consists in a thorough housecleaning of your feelings about him, a shake-up that is long overdue. So for advice: Discard as rubbish your old childish, awestruck idealization of him and aspiration to. wrest accolade from him. And do this by the sane device of appraising him through mature, objective eyes, in the light of experience, and seeing him realistically for what he is, namely: a smug, self-centered, competitive and ungenerous, rather shallow and insetititive person.

The best way to make a hit on Bill is to be fully as self-satisfied, or call it self-accepting, as he is. M. H. Bill married a grand girl trimming the waistline. The Queen wasn't the only girl wearing with a typical Irish wit and MarY ncrwonn temperament.

I like her a lot but she affects me the same way he does. I am very happily married to a fine man, white, for we noted that Marie Bogus also chose white lor her prom dress. Helen Seaman was the only Princess in black. Aqua, yellow, fuchsia, blue, rose, pink and green were among the other favorite colors of the 12 honored girls. have two lovely children and much else to be thankful for.
