Prints and Pleats Bright and Brash Herald Spring By JORIE LUELOFF NEW YORK (AP) -- Prints and pleats of all sizes were in the spotlight at Monday's show- ing of Galanos' spring and summer collection for 1965. Bright, brash, blocky silk prints--a Jot of them in shades of red and pink--were cut into suits for afternoon and evening. Jackets were generously acooped out in back and gently nipped in just under the bust before flaring softly to the hip- line. The full feeling was continued in; the softly pleated skirts. Sometimes the pleats were on the sides, sometimes only in the front, but they were always there. Pleats appeared, too, in the simple princess-style coats that flared out at the hemline. The ensembles were gener- topped by matching broad- L) ed hats of straw that, in some cases, were two-toned. For example, a straw sailor hat-- red on one side, navy on the other--appeared with a red, white and navy blue plaid suit. RECOMMENDS SWIRLS For cocktails and evening wear, Galanos recommends swirls and swirls of full-skirted, billowing chiffon. The drifty ef- fect often was enhanced by long trailing sashes, wide sleeves on loose, filmy overblouses, or pan- els that floated with each step. The chiffon was printed in everything from dainty floral patterns to splashy blocks to tiger- and leopard-skin designs. Necklines tended to be high and modest in front, but low and tricky in back. Squares and Vs plummeted down to the high waistlines. A triangular neck- line with the apex held together by a dainty bow at the nape of Deluge of Cards Expected Saturday In this year of the "big show" the Canada Post Office is all set for one of the biggest annual biizzards. This one will cause an avalanche to sweep through the nation's post offices. On Saturday, February 13, a heavy fall of cards is expected. 'The next day is Valentine's Day. According to the nation's larg- est greeting card manufacturer, over 30 million affirmations of love wili bend the backs of "Posties" this year. Spending anywhere from five cents to two dollars, Canadians with either a spark or flame of romance in the r souls will di- rect gaiiy colored cards to re- latives, friends and business as- sociates. In 1820, it was considered ill- mannered to send a Valentine to more than one lady. It's no- thing for today's young lovers to participate in a mass mail- ing of love declarations to as many women as a young man's allowance can afford. This year the average person will send not one, but 10 Valen- tines. According to a_ study made, more than three times as many Vaientines are sent to mothers as to sweethearts. But whether it's to a sweet- heart or a mother, this year the seniiments and language cover the wide spectrum from! pure sentimentalist to the mod- ern teenager. | the neck was greeted with ap- plause. A low, scooped neckline draped down the back was em- phasized by a border of deep ruffle A change from fullness was provided by chiffon with a ver- tical look, accentuated by soft, vertica!' pleats falling from a high, high waistline. Long filmy sleeves cascading over wide tight cuffs at the wrist com- pleted the long, slender look, to overeat. And, since exercise is not a built-in factor in our way of life, far too many Amer- icans have to cope with a grow- ing stockpile of pounds. Quite naturally the search for a magic diet goes merrily along. A reader, intrigued by a novel diet plan, writes: "Have you heard about the new diet that counts carbohy- drate grams instead of calor- ies? Since it is high in fat, would it hurt a person to stay on it for two or three months, and does it really work? Please dietitian, write a column ex- plaining this diet." Gladly. The diet, which was recently written up in a na- tional magazine, is based on the restriction of carbohydrate to 60 grams a day. On the diet you are allowed unlimited amounts of fat and protein-rich foods. In the article describing the diet, it was reported that one woman, doubting the diet, ate liberally KEEP IN TRIM New Diet Plan Allows Unlimited Fats, Proteins of fat so as purposely to in- Myers, left, treasurer, and Mrs. G.

To be- gin with, a high fat diet tends to dehydrate the tissues, and the initial weight loss is there- fore greater than can be ac- counted for on the calorie score. If the dieter continues to lose, it is because she is surfeited with fatty foods before she overeats. Hunger is appeased, for fat stays in the stomach sevr eral hours longer than carbo- hydrate or even protein. Further to explain the weigiit loss: When you limit carbohy- drate to 60 grams a day, you automatically cut calories. In this particular diet you must forego all pastries, cake, candy, sweet fruits, cereals, potato and starchy vegetables. You go ex- tremely light on bread. You can eat liberally of meat, fish, chicken, eggs, seafoods, cheese and non - starchy vegetables, with fat-rich sauces added.

FOR THE BIRTHDAY If tomorrow is your birthday, your horoscope indicates that this new year in your life will be fairly satisfactory in both job and monetary affairs, but only if you operate conserva- tively. In the former connec- tion, some nice rewards for your efforts should be forth- coming in early May and (or) mid-September, but the real turning point in all business matters will not be evident until the end of November or the beginning of December, when you will enter an excel- lent planetary cycle on all counts--including the financial.

I had a good figure until I was 16, suddenly I started to put on weight and before I knew it I was 40 pounds too heavy. It was determined to lose those extra. pounds, and in three months I took off every bit of it. Now I'm worse off than ever. I let myself go again and at present I am 50 pounds over- weight and just plain disgusted with myself. I don't like going to doctors, and managed to lose those 40 pounds without any medical advice or reducing pills. I hope you won't tell me to go to a doctor this time be- cause, frankly, I am ashamed to get on the scale in front of lanyone. I guess I am writing to you because I need your encourage- ment. Can you help? -- HOPE LESS OR NOT? Dear Or Not: A girl who, in three years, gains and loses 40 pounds then gains another 50 needs outside help Go to' your physician and d6n't worry about shocking him.

In a 100 - gram portion of meat, (3% oz.), at least half-the calories will be in fat. This is also true of cheese and eggs. To answer the question on the safety of this diet: While there is controversy regarding diet- ary fats, there is much reason to believe that excessive fat, particularly of a saturated var- iety, tends to promote the de- velopment of coronary heart disease. In the light of this re- search, it would not seem wise to shift to a high fat diet. The scientifically planned pro- tective reducing diet which is made up of a variety of food is, in the opinion of most nu- tritionists, still the best diet. Analyzed, the protective varied diet is high in protein, moder- ate in fat and low in carbohy- drate. You can't get something for nothing--and there is nothing in fat to make you thin.
