...early '60s-patches on worn or torn clothing were a mark of poverty, or at least of thrift. The patch has come a long way since then. Today it is colorful, clever, artistic and even ideological. Whether to hide holes on worn clothing or simply to adorn brand-new apparel-especially denim jeans and jackets-patching is the bright new...

At Kalgoorlie, where Herbert Hoover once managed a gold mine, vast nickel strikes have revived long-dormant ghost towns.

Shorts? Absolutely. And not just the ordinary old ho-hum sportswear type, but a brand-new outrageous variety, cut higher, tighter and altogether skimpier than anything Ruby Keeler ever kicked in (see THE THEATER).
