THE ADVICE BUREAU Three faces of summer by Lori Brooks. Spandex fabries used for swimwear sbould not be wasbed wlth chiorine bleach but with a safe substitute such as Borateem-PIus. Don't stopi at swimsuits S WIMWEAR fashions for summer are daring and ex- citing - the String, the Sumo- kini and the one-piece Thong. These new looks are being introduced in Canada by sev- eral designers, including Lori Brooks whose fashions for Sea Qucen were recently featured across Canada in Borateem's Canadian Designer Showcase. Lori's predictions for the future include a return to the classic maillot, but with a high cut leg for 1976, to give a more elegant and ladylike look. She emphasizes, however, that these new looks are pos- sible only because of the rela- tively recent development of two-way- stretch spa:ndex fibres. These spandex fibres need special care, and it is a mnaxim of Lori's that you need more than one swimisuit. This is not only for considerations of fashion, but because alter swimnming, swimsuits should iideaiiy be rinsed out in clean water and allowed to dry away from sunlight. Habitualiy al- Iowing suits to dry in the sun after swimming in the sea- or in a chlorinated pool - can damnage the spandex fibres. resulting in loss of stretch and faded colours. Spandex is a generic termi for synthetic elastic fibres used as a base for many stretch fabrics. These fabrics will stand Up to a substantial amount of physical wear and tear, but like everything cisc, they last longer if handied propcrly. Comparatively, most spandex is stronger, more pow- erful, and more durable than rubber. Unlike rubber, spart- dex can be safciy dryer-dried, but it is damaged by chlorine bleach.

It's flot enough to dunk your bikini in water, because this wilI flot remove body soil, suntan oils or just general dirt that accumulatcd wbile you Iay around on the beach. Treat your swimwear with as much consideraion as your lingerie. Hand-wash it in warm water to which you bave added a quarter-cup of Borateem-Plus, rinse in warm water and hang to dry after gently squeezing out cxcess moisture. For heavily soiled items, add a fcw tab lespoons of soap or detergent to the wash. Swimwear can also be ma- chine washed on*-a gentie cycle in' warm watcr, but shouid be dried away frorn direct heat.

At this point our historical figure sagged back into his easy chair, threw the paper onto the floor and mùttered his famous saying thus ensuring that lie became part of history as lie went bank- rupt. 1 maintain the saying applies just as much' today ifnot more than ever. Since you're sitting here reading the paper and have nothing to do for a couple of minutes let's theorîze and sec what we corne up with. As for you Engiish teachers please don"t pay atten tion to that iast sentence because lni told a, preposition is a bad word to end a sen'tence with. Now let's just suppose Finance Minister John Turner went for a littie trip on a smail boat into the mniddle of Lake Ontario. Just a pleasure trip with no intentions of reaching the Americari side of thé lake and possibly bank- rupting three U.S. border' cities before they deported him. Okay, so here's John Turner cruising around on a pleasure trip in Uicermiddle of Lake Ontario and his radio on the boat goes dead. After three days we don't hear anything and thcy send out a search party. 0f course the search- party fails to find any trace of die boat or its occupants and cornes back without any news of discovcry. Hundreds of Canadians are on tcnterhooks (whatever they are) waiting for news of the whercabouts of the Minister of Finance. Another week goes by and stîli no news. The television and radio stations get in on tic act and eventually one of thc brighter reporters gets the idea of interviewing the mani on tic street.

PAGE il flrst victim with lectronic gear ready and asks hlm how he feels about the Finance Minister being rnisslng out on the l1ake over three weeks. The man who the reporter has picked lis an average Canadian who lias rèad newspapers almost every day of his adult lfe, usually watçhes the, Il p.m. news and for the past six rnonths has been able to read virtually nothing in the papers but bad newsabout the e conomny. He has read of strikes cutting off vital services such as police and fire protection, postal service and the dry cleaning company that cleans his shirts. Statistics on the news have told him, that-the 'more he earns the more he will have to pay in taxes and increased costs and that his earned dollar is now now buying less than ever before in istory. In short (well maybc a little drat'wn out) what l'm trying to tell you is that our man on the street standing li. front of the television camrera about to give lis man-on-the-street opinion about the Finance Minister being missing is prob- ably more than a littie prejudiced. I would even go so far as to say he is a potential murderer because if you were to insert the Finance Minister's neck into his hands he wouldn't be able to resist the temptation of squeezing very hard. Knowing ail this you won't be surprised to watch that man on television as he learns from thie reporter about the missing Finance Minister and gliblysays to the camrera, 'Weil, you know the old saying, no news is good news!" SHistory certainly has a way of rcpeating itself doesn't it? ['m flot smart enough with finance to know if John Turner is doing a good job with our money or a bad job. But 1 will say the econorny of this country is starting to resem bic my, personal financiai situation which has always been a disast- er at best.
