An Aspirin A Day?
Recent research has re-

for an old medicine. Scientific
studies show that taking one
or two aspirins a day can help
to prevent a second and possi-

Consider, for example,
wearing a peplum jacket
with a mini-skirt, or a
puffed skirt with a tight-
fitting bodice that extends
to the hips.
In general, the waist is
emphasized. Broad-shoul-
dered jackets cinched at the
waist or belted are popular
for business suits. And
sultry evening dresses in
stretch materials predom-
inate. As an alternative,
cocktail ensembles of tunics
and short skirts are also
popular.
Tight pants are in, but

ienced flyers with the same
levels of proficiency as their
airline counterparts.
The FAA instituted a pro-
gram of metering all air traf-
fic called Flow Control. It
uses a state-of-the-art com-
puter display screen that
gives an instantaneous pic-
ture of all traffic moving
within U.S airspace. Weather
may force controllers to hold
traffic at departure points,
but that seemingly inter-
minable wait at the gate is
the system's margin of safety.
So we at the NBAA say to
air travelers: Go ahead and
fly. Take your trips. It'll be
safe. Stick a few paperbacks
in your carry-on luggage; you
may be sitting in airports
longer than you planned.

like tunic/skirt separates.
In jeans, prewashed
denim will continue to be
popular. Black denim
pants, skirts and jackets are
big news in sportswear.
Predominant colors this
fall include various shades
of green, from deep spruce
to celadon, and muted
jewel tones of violet and
gold. Dark colors like deep
brown, red, green and egg-
plant are worn with black
and navy to be brightened
with glittery accessories
and jewelry.
Muted tones of mauve,
blue, olive, khaki brown
and mallard green appear
on outerwear with brightly
colored linings. Sweaters
and knit dresses appear in
smoky neutrals or such
startling brights as yellow,
coral, turquoise and gold-
beige. Ultra-feminine pas-
tels. including lemon, rose,
peach and lime adorn silky
dresses and blouses.
Fabrics are highly tex-
tured or give the illusion of
texture. Plaids, tweeds and
stripes abound as do jac-
quard weaves and floral
prints reminiscent of
Russian, Austrian and
Indonesian folk art.

Fall semester classes will
begin Aug. 31 at high
schools throughout the
county, the University of
Texas at Dallas, and the
Central Campus in McKin-
ney. Classes are offered in
such areas as art, biology,
computer assisted design,
electronics, financial man-
agement, history, human
development, math, horti-
culture, psychology, and
others.
Two eight-week mini-
semesters will be offered
by the college this fall, with
a primary emphasis on Real

Semester I will be Aug.

II will be Oct. 13-Dec. 16.
This fall women’s
fashions combine stylish
elements from the past for
a modern eclectic look that
lets women express their
individuality without reser-
vation. Why not wear a
peplum jacket reminiscent
of the ’40s? Or flaunt a
pouf-skirt dress for evening
like they wore in the ’50s.
Fell free in minis that
haven’t been shorter since
the ’60s. Or if the occasion
calls for true romance, an
Edwardian-styled sweater
over an ankle-grazing skirt
is the key.
According to the Soap
and Detergent Association,
styles may be fanciful, but
fabrics are practical, cater-
ing to present day needs.
Knits dominate the fashion
scene. Corduroys are im-
portant with prints on
cotton as well as interesting
dimensional effects. St-
retch fabrics are giving
shape to looks from T-shirts
and tight pants to evening-
wear. Some of the luxury
fabrics are silk, leather,
velvet and angora/lambs-
wool blends. Check gar-
ment labels for care in-
