Dick Peterson Comfort takes priority over 'best dressed' list I will never be accused of being on anyone's best-dressed list. I say that now with confidence. I hope I can say that with confidence in 20 years. * I'm also sure I don't "dress for success" either, but there is a book by that name that I could read should I want that. It's not on my list for summer reading. I dress comfortably. I wear corduroys, shirts with buttons on them and usually work boots. I am a man ready for action. If I have to walk in muck, my boots and cords won't be any worse for the wear. If I have to change a flat tire, I won't have to worry about getting my nice clothes dirty. If I want to hop on the lawn mower after work, I won't have to take off my tie and jacket and wing-tip shoes to do it. When you're trying to beat the rain, clothing can become an important variable. It's the difference between a complete job and two unmowed swaths. If a pen breaks in my shirt pocket, it generally blends in. It wouldn't if my shirt were white. I don't own a white shirt. My fashion recalcitrance is rooted probably in my parochial schooling. To be allowed to attend school on any particular day, and to avoid spending another day in purgatory in the hereafter, we had to dress nice. That was OK until about third grade when we suddenly realized the kids who went to public schools could wear about anything they pleased. And most of all, they didn't have to wear ties. Can you imagine third graders wearing ties every day? And the girls didn't have to wear purple plaid uniforms. By the time I was in high school, I was in jeans. Stephen Schloesser, meanwhile, was attending a parochial high school where he and all other students had to undergo surprise inspections for proper attire and proper hair length. The school administrators actually lined the students up and measured their hair. More than an inch long meant trouble. It was a strict school. There was a time in my life when I thought I would make my mark in life as a restaurateur; a server of finer eggs, bacons, patty melts and specials of the day. That career was short lived. I didn't care for the hours at the 24-hour, semi-fast-food restaurant, and I couldn't see myself behind a grill and plastic apron for the rest of my life, sometimes for the rest of my shift. Being that I was of the management persuasion, I had to wear a tie. I owned a great many ties and had become quite proficient at tying the tie knot around my neck. However, every one of my ties absorbed barrels-full of grease; all had interesting spot designs on them. It was somewhat ridiculous to wear a tie that looked like something the cook scraped off the grill, say burnt liver and onions. With a tie, I was supposed to look like an authority figure and appear professional to our customers. Ties don't do that instantaneously, corttOT, to popular belief. The grease coattng and Uvtr-lo<& refutes that. Iquitthejoft) after a year. Jn the ensuing five years, I have worn a tie eight times. I'm not sure what it portends for me, but I recently purchased a complete clothing ensemble, something someone who is dressing for success might wear. I bought a dark blue jacket, a light blue shirt, a tie with diagonal color- coordinated stripes, tan pants and a pair of leather, made- in-Taiwan shoes. I got some underwear for my birthday last month, so the ensemble is store-bought new except for the socks. And I'm not sure whether I should wear blue or brown socks. I never give that kind of choice a second thought, but with an en­ semble, matching is very important. Hie only thing I don't have is a belt. I draw the line there. My pants fit, so I don't need another useless piece of ap­ parel. The tie suffices. As a matter of principle, I never wear a belt. It's a nice looking outfit, but I doubt that it is Very com­ fortable, especially considering the inherent fallacy in the jacket, which is constructed for warm-weather wear. Can any jacket be as light as a short-sleeve shirt? Logic says no resoundingly. Fashion says suffer.

Adams, recently attended the Northern Illinois Mini-Education Conference, sponsored by Township Officials of Illinois, Division of Super­ visors, at the Aurora Hilton Inn.
