Associate Professor Margaret Humphrey of the department of textiles and clothing initiated the fOrmen- only course after numerous questions convinced her of the demand for it. "What's the most serviceable material for a business suit?" they wanted to know. "Ho^ can 1 get a grease spot off my trousers?" "Should I wear a dark iuit to an afternoon wedding?" Miss Humphrey began working on her curriculum a year. ago. She contacted manufacturers of men's suiis, shirts, hats, shoes, gloves; and they responded by sending her comprehensive exhibits of the history of men's clothing and the processes of their manufacture from the raw product to the finished shirt, suit, coat or derby. Ithaca merchants also cooperated by sponsoring field trips to their retail .establishments. 5H0HT5TcW Smiling j Laser ' .j By Richard Bill WtOdnfea riaon school. Now on a flying trip, to.
