1964’s Trends
By Vicky Hutchins
This year — as every year — cos¬
tumes for the Tournament of
Roses Royal Court will reflect
current fashion trends.
Bullocks Dept. Store buyer Fim-
bres, who selected the costumes
for the Queen and her court, sums
up the current fashion look as
“casual elegance — with the stress
on elegance.” Three outfits were
coordinated for the Queen and
court: a sports costume, a dressy
costume for more formal appear¬
ances, and the gown for the Royal
Ball.
THE FIRST of three outfits is
a sports costume by Dalton. It
will be worn on informal occa¬
sions. The outfit consists of a
white, long-sleeved blouse set off
by a tailored bow at the neck, and
is worn with a red wool slim skirt
with blue detailing.
A vestee sweater of red cash-
mere with navy detailing at the
buttons will set off the trim of
its coordinating red skirt. Navy
bag and shoes will be worn with
the costume. White short gloves
and white pear earrings will add
the finishing touch.
FOR MORE formal appear¬
ances a two-piece ping sherbet
wool suit was chosen. The suit is
set off by a hat in matching fab¬
ric. The suit proclaims the fash¬
ionable “sportee” look, which
boasts an easy fit, tailored cuffs,
and notched collar. Antique gold
jewelry was chosen to continue
the theme with antique gold me¬
dallion pin, button earrings, and
bangle bracelet. An off-white
wool textured coat with long
matching gloves completes the
costume. The Queen will wear her
white coat over a suit with a
matching hat.
The third group is ball gowns —
gowns which will follow the cur¬
rent soft silhouette fashioned by
the “Empire” look. The Queen’s
gown is a hard-jeweled brocade
with diamonds and silver lined
bugle beads detailing the rose de¬
sign of the fabric. Emerald green
chiffon gathered into a solf bul-
son highlighted with bugle beads
and a full floating chiffon skirt
is worn by the princesses.
Fashion will reign in 1964 along
with the Tournament of Roses
Court.
New Math Class
Presents Basics
There’s a new non-credit math
class on Wednesday nights from
7 to 9:30, in 166C, offering a basic
foundation for algebra and for
passing qualifying math tests.
Arthur Hoffman of Roosevelt
High School, Los Angeles, is
teaching the class and students

ors for placement in this new

Committee Meeting
The Inter-Club Council’s pub¬
licity committee, composed of
the publicity chairmen of all
campus clubs, will hold a meet¬
ing Friday at 2 p.m. in 26C. All
publicity chairmen are invited
to this meeting.
“My Three Angels,” a comedy
by Sam and Bella Spewack and
the Drama Department’s second
production, will be presented De¬
cember 10 through 14 in the Lit¬
tle Theater.
The play is based on “La
Cuisine des Anges” by Albert
Husson and concerns three es¬
caped convicts who manage to
straighten out the troubled busi¬
ness affairs of a French family,
the Ducotels.
Joseph, the head convict, is a
confidence operator imprisoned
with a 20-year sentence. Jules, a
jealous husband, had killed his
wife when he found her with an¬
other man and was sentenced to
life imprisonment. Also a mur¬
derer, Alfred was given a life
sentence for killing his stepfather
in a poker game.
PORTRAYING the convicts are
Craig Holden as Joseph, Leslie
Perry as Jules, and Roland Reu¬
ter as Alfred. These three men
are passionate believers in “the
robinhood of man” and spend one
night and a day becoming “good
angels” of this sadly harassed
household.
To clear up the Ducotels’ prob¬
lems, the three convicts gradual¬
ly do away with all the people
causing the trouble.
SUPPORTING the cast are
Whitney Rydbeck playing Felix
Ducotel, the father; Claire Tur¬
ney as Emilie Ducotel, the moth¬
er; Patricia Miller as the daugh¬
ter, Marie Louise; Madame Pa¬
role, a society matron, is portray¬
ed by Lynn Roscoe.

Dr. Giles T. Brown of Orange
County State College will speak
at an assembly next Tuesday and
Thursday.
The topic of Dr. Brown’s dis¬
cussion is “An Enduring Docu¬
ment,” a speech referring to the
US Constitution. In his speech,
the educator will challenge Ameri¬
cans to appreciate their heritage
of a document “conceived with
such insight as to make it unique¬
ly enduring.”
In the last 14 years, Dr. Brown
has traveled to the Middle East,
Asia, and Africa on study semin-
Judges Name
Court Today
Nancy Kneeland, a brown¬
haired and green-eyed sopho¬
more, will reign as queen of
the 75th annual Tournament
of Roses.
Selection of 19-y ear-old
Miss Kneeland was announced
today by Hilles M. Bedell,
tournament president. She
was number 160 of the 2600
girls who competed for the
crown. A tournament com¬
mittee of businessmen were
the final judges.
QUEEN NANCY is 5’7” tall,
and weighs 125 pounds. Her
studies at PCC will prepare her
for a career as a retail merchan¬
dise buyer. In her spare time, she
enjoys collecting antique silver
and china, and singing in her
church choir. She is also a sail¬
ing, hunting, and tennis enthusi¬
ast.
“This is the finest honor that
I have ever received,” said the
surprised coed when notified of
her selection. “I will try very
hard to uphold the high standards
set by those chosen in previous
years.”
IMMEDIATELY after her selec¬
tion, the new monarch was taken
to a leading Pasadena store,
where she was fitted for three
wardrobes: informal, daytime
dress, and ball costume. Her
wardrobe will be of similar styl¬
ing to those of the princesses,
except for color. The queen’s sil¬
ver brocade ball gown has been
specially designed for the tourna¬
ment’s 75th anniversary.
The new queen’s official debut
will come tomorrow morning at
the traditional Queen’s Breakfast
at the Huntington-Sheraton Hotel.
Miss Kneeland will be accompan¬
ied by her Royal Court of six
princesses: Suannah Carver, Di¬
ana DuVal, Pamela Gibbs, Carol
Otten, Susan Talcott, and Shan
Williams.
Coronation day for the Rose
Parade’s leading lady will be De¬
cember 27, when she will receive
her diadem of red roses at an
evening ceremony in Pasadena
Civic Auditorium. The annual
Coronation Ball will follow.
