SANTA CRUZ THEATRE Phone 780 Ends Tonite 2 HITS 2 ASKED Also Osborne Vivienne on Skates! A THE CAME THAT with Charles Quigley Rita Hayworth Huge Cost For Veterans maryl hampton's Column I'd say that a pair of mittens and skirt were the first prerequisites of looking smart out on the ice- and of the two, it's the skirt that really comes first. You see, like good fashion scouts should, I have been winter-diving into the cold of the rinks to watch the -cheeked merry-makers, and to check on those good old "do's" and And whether it's slender young daughter with her trick page boy bob or a merry mother "who used to when I was a girl" who is taking up the smart vogue for skating (and both are indeed) there simply has to be the right sort of short skirt. Slacks look dreadful--because skating is a most graceful sport dependent entirely upon balance and coordination. And anything as stiff and unfeminine as pants simply "don't Furthermore, long skirts look out of place- quite as strange as too long skirts upon the street. Although everybody need not indulge in the knee-length, true ice skirt at the start of the sport.

True--it is more than possible to adapt something out of the present wardrobe for those beginning hours. Only skirts must be shortened for ing! And the skirt just has to either plaited or flared. Straight skirts hobble the skater with both awkwardness and restraint. Skating is a sport a most active sport--and hence it is sport clothes one wears. Last night (I was out there) I even saw a fur coat, peaked hat and veil making the attempt, and it was a bit pathetic.

No--tailored little wool jackets and sweaters of various sorts to top the short and full skirt are the things. Some go bare-headed on the rinks where the temperature is barely freezing. Others can, and do, wear trick little beanies, or even a peasant scarf tied over the head. And then there should be warm gloves- even though you may not fall. And of them all, the colorful wool mitts are nicest, for they do wash well and look and let the hands get wet, as leather does.

I have seen quite a few smart skaters dressed just this way--and none looking quite so nice--that is with short flared navy blue skating skirt--plaid or plain wool jacket, or Tyrolean sweater coat--blue or white beanie--white wool or plain wool socks and skating shoes and white mittens! Then I saw one skater in black velveteen--a moulded frock with flared short skirt edged with white wool. But I rather guess she was an instructress, for she did Sonja Henie stunts with one foot in midair with charming gracefulness, too, and pirouetted around on the tip toes of her skates with easy abandon. This I can -ice-skating, like every good sport, is going to need its costume. It is one thing to bundle up in winter wools and glide up the country river--and quite another to disport oneself in these modern rinks, with their varying lights and -like modern ballrooms.

29 -The veterans' administration has asked congress for $543,417,500 to finance it during the 1939 fiscal year, a reduction of $42,414,500 under the current appropriation, it was learned tonight. The decrease apparently reflects President Roosevelt's governmental economy drive in that it includes a slash of more than $1,000.000 for salaries and general expenses. The remainder of the reduction is represented by decreased outlays for military and naval insurance. The bureau's budget estimates reveals that since the year 1790 and up to last September 30, the stupendous sum of $21,173,027,407.25 has been disbursed in pensions and compensation for relief of veterans and their dependents. Of the total more than half, or $12,982,387.097.69, was for pensions and compensation alone.

The veterans' administration advised congress that on October 1 1937. there were 47,909 patients receiving hospital care and 12.914 veterans receiving domiciliary care authorized by the administration. Since February, 1919, congress has authorized or appropriated 222,000 for new hospital, domiciliary and out-patient dispensary facilities, and the construction program on which the administration is now engaged willl provide an additional 3620 beds. The 1939 building program contemplates 164 new beds each at Chillicothe, Knoxville, Waco, and Los Angeles, at a total cost of $1,275,000. Use The Sentinel Classified Ads For Results with Mr.
