...carriage emerged from Westminster Hall, where Churchill's body had lain in state for three days and nights. The coffin on the gun carriage was shrouded with the Union Jack, on which rested a black velvet cushion bearing the diamond and gold regalia of the Order of the Garter. More than 100 sailors of the Royal Navy-Churchill's favorite service-drew the gun carriage and its burden forward at a measured 65 paces to the minute.* Each minute, the cannon boomed their soldierly lament...

Mary Grey has textured tights in stretch nylon, Beautiful Bryans in nanny-white lace, and Kayser-Roth promises some misty spring numbers abloom with flowers from tippytoe to waist. The ultimate extension, of course, is the jumpsuit; Capezio has one in white ribbed stretch nylon ($33), Bewitching in sheer...
