Study Reveals
Teenage Views
On Good Dress
Contrary to popular belief, most
teenage girls consider being well-
dressed important, according to
recent research at A&M Universi
ty.
This attitude helps rule out “ul
tra casual” dressing and “fad”
buying, say researchers with the
Department of Home Economics at
the Texas Agricultural Experiment
Station.
Information for the study came
from 471 girls of junior and senior
high schools in Bryan, College
Station, Dallas and Fort Worth.
Similar interviews were given to
their mothers to compare the two
groups in certain instances.
Although the girls thought that
quantity of clothing was important,
they showed more interest in cloth
ing suitable to their activities and
becoming to them individually.
They wanted to dress similar to
their peers, but they also wanted
to express their personalities
through clothing choices.
Two - thirds of the girls said
they had occasionally felt ill-at-
ease because they were inappro
priately dressed. They said this
resulted from unsuitable clothing,
rather than inadequate numbers of
garments.
Greatest concern of the girls was
general appearance and becoming
ness—they named each item 55
percent of the time when asked
about clothing concerns. “Proper,”
“snug,” and “becoming” were terms
used interchangeably by the girls.
Older teenagers who earn their
own money said they would like
more information on style and
color. Younger girls—too young to
be employed—were more concerned
with what to wear, and how to
wear it.
Teenagers notice others’ clothing
too, in the same way they worried
about their own—general appear
ance and fit.
Some of the teenagers were
skilled seamstresses. In the year
before the study was made, girls
had acquired anywhere from 11
to 30 dresses, with an average of
14 reported. This spells out big
business for manufacturers of teen
age dresses and fabric firms.
“WITHIN OUR REACH”

In Reading Contest
Brazos County continues to hold
the Number 1 position in the state
reading contest.
“Early results from the state
wide reading contest indicate that
Brazos County readers have won
the title of ‘State Book-Reading
Champions’ ” reported Paul B.
Crawford, chairman of National
Library Week for Brazos County.
The contest was based on the
number of books circulated from
the libraries during National Li
brary Week based on per capita
basis.
Carnegie Library in Bryan, ser
ving Brazos County, circulated
16,115 books during National Li
brary Week. The annual circula
tion rate during NLW was 16.1
books per capita per year. The
circulation during National Li
brary Week was more than the
city of Fort Worth circulated even
though their population is 360,000.
Amarillo was second and Odessa
was third. Waco, was fourth, Lub
bock fifth, and Fort Worth was
sixth.

Council’s Belt Sale

Aggies sold 788 seat belts and
160 other pieces of safety equip
ment during a recent non-profit
campaign, Allen B. Lee, a Civilian
Student Council official, reported.
Lee, a Wyoming junior who
headed the sales committee, said
the drive was the first attempt
by any college students to promote
traffic safety through seat belt
sales.
Statistics have shown that seat
belts save lives, and we are con
fident that through our efforts,
many Aggies will be saved if they
are involved in traffic accidents,”
Lee said.
The belts were distributed on
low bid basis, and installed at cost
by local service station operators,
he added. Total sales amounted
to $2,899.24.
