EW le forummet BPSORTS certataly ate cake udaler to make you resort in all sorts of excuses to get away from business an order to play.

Palm Beach istun and that a would be a pleasure to be idle and dawdle Sum nter clothes now appearing midi aste at this tea dency has crystallized. It certainly on a year to dress up for play and see what happens.

Color schemes are all-important this year. in doubt about colors, get white for the main oul- f. and then add one or two clear, tright colors. Yellows are granti, all kinds and shades. So are greens. And blues have nothing to live by com parison with them.

If you are planning to piece out with last year's Bings, the first thing you will notice is that new colors are so much more flamboyant that they give away the secret of your old clothes.

For any kind of sports, spectator or active. the file jacket is right in the swing of things, The bolere, bux and brief fitted jackets welcome into their midst the new sleeveless windbreak, the swankies) kind of colorful covering you can get for white outfits.

Your jacket doesn't have to contribute warmth to be given favorite space in your wardrobe. It is color, and chic that jackets add, though of course they do have their good points if a wint blows up.

FOR outfits themselves, you can have a one. piece dress for about anything you want, or a two-piece. Tennis dresses imve gone in for art yokes, brief cap sleeves and gored skirts that give them a quaint old-fashioned look but make them eminently fitted to give service and allow freedom of movement.

When it comes to beach togs, you can dress like sailor, a yachtsman, a farmeret, a modi.. hed Japanese coolie or about any ciaracter your little heart desires.

Bathing suits have gone in for gorgeous one. piece fitted things, and by the way of helping you in and out of them, they often have zipper fas tebings up and down the back. What could be handier and what more of an innovation? Many of them have perfectly bure backs across the shoulders, by way of helping you get that suntan.

The beach suits slip on right over these little tules you swim in. Sa they are either the same color or else they add color to the all-white bath- ing suit which will have a great ride for popu Janty.

The most popular materials this year are the glish silks, like shantungs, and the pretty linens like the fandblocks, and the ribbed wash ables, like pique. All kinds of touches add their feminine decorativeness to your suntner sports things. Not that there are so many extraneous bows as formerly. But for colorful pipings, little godet insats, befts, ties and false hems, this year rates comment on their gaiety.

IF you are a real switomer, there is a square- necked suit that is built on the square for it helps you to swim because of its svell cut.

is brown knitted jersey, striped with white and edged in yellow. It is one of the new ones with the zipper back fastening. Lightweight. warm and ultra chic, it is calculated to make you learn to dive because you will be such a smart streak of stripes as you cut into the water.

To top this there is a huxurious cream colored terry cloth coat with matching bands of yellow waren into it and a fecking of the same rich brown of the suit. The cute beach sandals nie of yellow linen, made to your toes and leave thicis exposed and then tie with a feminine bow at the ankles.

II. FOR the temis count—white liy all means.

But white with a color contrast in acces sories is a new item,

Here is a swell dress for the active tennis player, a white shantung, made with pleats run. ing all around. all going the same way, as if the girl herself were swinging around after a good shol. It has a shoulder yoke and some tiny fitted darts to ease the shoulder line, and it fits the fig ure beautifully, with a self-belt at waistline.

Over it is the new waistline cardigan slipover, sleeveless jumper. This one is red, white and blue, which is stunning over the white frock. There is a white soft shantung scart attached at the back of the cardigan, with snappers..

It comes off to bind up the hair, or can be wom tucked in, as it is here, for a scarf. The tennis shoes, of white buckskin, are oxfords.

III. IF you are a golfer who likes to play. not just saunter about the links, you will appreciate a workmanlike costume, amarily tai- loved and becoming and infinitely comfortable.

It has a tweed skirt in brown, lightweight and basket wease, which is made with godels from above the knee. Then it has a beige silk shirt- waist of the tuck-in variety and long sleeves with cuff links and buttons to fasten it of glossy brown hone.

Its piece de resistance is a perfectly lovely brown, beige and white striped cardigan, gay as can be, comfortable no end. The hat of brown straw is faced with beige and banded with the same and the new golf shoes of brown callikin have inserts of beige gabardine, a brand new idea for the links: cool and comfortable.

IV. FOR the beach girl, the great-outdoors girl who can't bear to go inside even for cigatel and insists ont al fresco meals and bridge parties, there is the snappiest little pajama suit with coolie sunshade hat that is a knockout. The pajamas are both cool and comfortable and as for the picture you make in them, words fail. The tuck-in blouse is of luscious melon rose shade of line, and the wide, pleated trousers that have yards of goods in them are of a benu- tiful new lime yellow, stunning with the rose. Top both of these with a jaunty sleeveless flaring sincket of deep orange and you couldn't look cuter, nor could you have a more amusing co tune for the beach.

There are liten beach sandals, with a clog heel, made of the orange of the jacket, and a peaked, coolie hat that sits atop a bandeau.

V. IF you are a sunbather, as well as a swim- mer, or even if you prefer sunbathing to awiting, you will be interested in the white bathing suit. with blue piping that is made back- les, with the front ted around the neck in a bow beland.

They are cut 10 cute, on princess lines, with flasing legs made with godeta, all piped in blue. If gold is inore becoming, you can have gold pip ings instead of blue. The cut and flare is the sume. If you feel any squeamisliness at being so scantily attired, slip into a blue pair of linen brach trousers. You are garbed for the entire day!
