There, are those sturdy pursuits like active sports, housework, or just plain reading. Then there are the less casual aspects of office work, or informal dates. And finally, there's the fun business of full-fledged dress-up evenings." "Starting with the first type," Dot went on, "it seemed to me that even in this utilitarian category, a girl would be wise to select glasses with an upturn at the outer edges, for the simple reason that the line of youth is an upward line. The ones I wear in the photograph have this upward tilt and a flattering bonus of color too. The frames are all-plastic so you can get them in shades to match your hair or choose dubonnet, the newest, as I did, for the pleasant pick-up it is to a complexion. The hat chosen to go with these is a bonnet shape, especially becoming because it can be worn well back on the head so that the natural hair Una frames the face. It's made of white capeskin, to tie in with all the fashion excitement about buttons, collars, cuffs and jackets of white capeskin for Spring. "But what about your next choice — the glasses to wear with suits, afternoon dresses and such?" we asked. Dot Mullane had an answer to this in her selection of frames featuring a combination of plastic and metal in which the lower half of the design, delicately golden, adds formality and distinction. Dot couldn't understand quite why these should be so exceedingly becoming. We both discovered the reason — the winged flair of the upper part is patterned after Ingrid Bergman's brow contour — and who wouldn't look prettier wearing that beau tiful brow-line. The profile straw hat does nothing to detract from the smooth perfection of this line and even adds to it with an illusion of height. "When it came to choosing a dressy pair of glasses for evening," Dot told us, "I just went ahead as though I were choosing any other accessory, and looked for something dainty and jewel-like that would 'do things' for me. Remembering what the Bausch and Lomb people (who made all these glasses ) had told me about the way glasses increase the size of your eyes in proportion to your face, I decided to lean heavily on that beauty dividend. That's why the glasses I modelled in the formal photograph have delicate stranded gold to frame the eyes' own loveliness. The hat I liked best to go with these is really a half-hat, covered all over with pretty pink lilacs and just a touch of glitter. The Madcaps designer who dreamed up this confection (and the others I've described) has added a flesh colored veil, to be worn over the forehead as a softener. The hat designer feels very definitely about this subject of veils for eyeglass wearers and advocates them only in flesh tones, and only over the forehead. Otherwise they're taboo, and the only taboo that a girl who wears glasses has to watch out for. "In fact," Dot added, "the main problem in selecting either glasses, or hats to go with them, is that you can't possibly take home all the dozens you'd like to. You see, the opticians have come to realize with the milliners that there is no more potent flatterer than color. Glasses nowadays, like hats, can be had in many shades, or dyed to your order." END THE PSYCHIATRIST LOOKS AT HOLLYWOOD [CONTINUED FROM PAGE 23] familiar one: sudden great fame, sudden tremendous riches, and a sudden fall through bad investments, disagreement with his studios, and an inescapable trait of antagonizing friends and strangers alike. It is no secret that a condition of his returning to the MGM fold, after a series of explosive incidents that rocked Hollywood and much more established stars back on their heels, was that he would place himself under the care of a psychiatrist. Rumor has it that Mario Lanza has agreed, and benefitted accordingly. He has not been the first star to do so: the list is a long one, and this writer, who has reported the movie scene for many years, remembers that Claudette Colbert, Dan Dailey, Lawrence Tierney, Bob Mitchum, Judy Garland, and a host of others, found much help in the field of mental medicine. Is that the secret for greater health in Hollywood as a whole and the stars who make the wheels go round in particular? Recently it was announced that because of the good work that the famed Menninger Clinic had done for many of the top stars in Hollywood, the industry had invited Dr. Karl Menninger to open a branch in Hollywood. Apparently this plan will be carried out early in 1953. The stars have learned, fortunately, that there is nothing shameful in going to a psychiatrist. But what of the psychiatrists? Do they feel their help is needed more in Hollywood than perhaps in any town in the United States? Do they believe that conditions warrant a psychiatric control over the industry? Are the movie folk — because of the fast pace and the constant fight for survival —to be helped by this kind of medical attention? The answers vary, and here are some of the opinions of outstanding practitioners in the field. Noted New York psychologist, Dr. Allan Fromme, author of the best-selling "The Psychologist Looks At Sex And Marriage," recently told this writer: "It's not so much the pressure of Hollywood, or the quick rise of the players themselves, or the amassing of so much money, that is the cause of the mental disturbances we hear so much about. They are drawn to certain actions by a neurotic drive, and while they can satisfy part of it, they do not satisfy all of it. So there is always something missing— and not even success makes up for what they are trying to achieve."
