It appears that the average fa­ ther of today has no intention of falling into sedentary habits un­ til he reaches his late nineties. Both youthful and mature fa­ thers are spending more and WE BELIEVE THAT FATHERS Wt IS DADS DAY FOR REST AND RELAXATION; NOT A DAY TO BE WORKING ON HOME IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS.

It7t more of their free time jogging, running, cycling, playing golf, tennis or racquetbaJl, and swim­ ming or boating. Some of our modern Dads are very good athletes while others, of course, are huffers, puffers and duffers. One way or the other, how­ ever, they all like to look like champs, and that can be your key as to what to buy your Dad for Father's Day on June 17th, says the Men's Fashion Associ­ ation. Jogging and running are sports that have progressed to the point where a simple T-shirt worn with any pair of shorts will no longer do. Color has entered the jogging and running picture in a big way, and that goes for fellows loping along the paths set aside for those activities as well as for those competing in the televised' marathons. That fact is even more evi­ dent on chilly days when the joggers and runners don what used to be known as "warm up" suits, but which are now being increasingly called "jogging suits." No longer confined to their original sweat shirt gray, the current jogging suits are brightly hued and often incorpo­ rate two or three vivid colors in their designs. Golfers, of course, belong to that long established clan that is split between those with a clas­ sic attitude and those favoring a no-holds-barred approach as far as color and pattern are con­ cerned. Probably inspired by the pros whose tournaments are a regular feature on TV, the wielders of the woods and irons offer a vir­ tual rainbow of color. And their slacks, in addition to being colorful, are often boldly patterned with sporting or abstract motifs, plus plaids and other all-over effects such as patch-madras, patch-seer­ suckers or blazer stripes. You can really go all-out in fashion when buying your Dad a gift to wear for golf. In recent years, the tennis pros shattered the old rtile that only white is correct on the courts, because the different colors made it easier to distin­ guish the players on camera. However, there is now deve­ loping a counter-trend back to the wearing of white, though few of the tennis shirts, tennis shorts or tennis sweaters are pure white. On the other hand, racquet- bailers, while wearing the same shorts as the tennis players, have their own thing as far as shirts and sweaters are con­ cerned. They go for color at its bright­ est, and many prefer the sleeve­ less athletic shirts to the T- shirts. To add brightness to the racquetball picture, many of those shirts carry horizontal bands of contrasting color, too. Leafing through some ar­ chives we found some pictures of men's swimwear circa 1916. As a matter of fact, they weren't even called swimwear. They were known as "bath­ ing suits," which was an apt ap­ pellation for those knitted woolen monsters that, in one piece, included a skirted bottom that extended to pants legs and capped sleeves. Very modest, no doubt, they weren't ideal for speeding through the water or sunning ei­ ther. They are eons apart in so many ways from some of today's-modern knitted nylon briefs, which are often vividly patterned. Even the more sedate boxer- type or basketball-type swim trunks give Dad all the freedom he needs to swim and demon­ strate a strong crawl or leisurely backstroke. As far as after-swim tops are concerned, you can get Dad a perfectly coordinated top, made from the same fabric as his trunks (the top may be lined with terry cloth), or mix and match your own combinations selecting from any number of swim warmers that range from terries to poplins.
