OTTAWA (CP)-One of these days. ladies, you may be able to slide a size 14 figure into size 14 clothes and forget about the hodge- podge of sizes now hanging in the wardrobe.

And if your youngster takes a size eight, you'll probably be able to order clothes by sizes from a catalogue or over the telephone ifrlhout worrying whether they'll it.

To women who have fumed for years over discrepancies in cloth- ing sizes. both for themselves and their child r e in. standard sizes sound like a wonderful dream.

A group of about 20 garment manufacturers. retailers. research and government experts is expec- ted to meet in Ottawa next month in an effort to bring clothing size standards a bit closer to reality.

Tentative date for a-meeting of the committee on standard gar- ment sizes is Feb. 23. Three women. representing the Cana- dian Assnciation of Consumers. are members -of the group which was set up in 1952 by the Cana- dian g o v e r n m e n t specifica- tions hoard of the National Re- search Council.

The committee hopes to prepare

CAC Gives Final Push For Standard Sized Garments

the way for final stand rd sizes for children's clothes at t is meet- ing. D. Wolochow. secretary of the standards board. said. A size sys- tem for women's clothing also will be discussed.

STYLE NOT FACTOR

The committee ls working on standard sizes for women's and children's utility clothing not on style features. J. A. sum, a member of the specifications board and secretary of the committee. said.

At present. there is "no mean- ing to size designations at all," said Mr. Hanna.

"We hope to enable people to buy garments and have some as- .;IItl'8llCe of getting something that i a."

He said that over the years ther has been growing dis- content with slzes. The Canadian Association of Consumers gave the final push to get something done about it.

Sizes have been guessed at by most manufacturers. Mr. Hanna added. One manufacturer more than 25 years ago spent three years measuring some 20 young- sters each year at a nearby danc- ing school to determine an "aver- age" size.

The two princesses have so far seen 'lttle of Princess Margarita of Baden. who has been in Eng- land four years and is regarded as a society beauty.

"She is even busier than we are." Prince Christina said.

A blonde with an urchin haircut, she is frequently seen at theatres and concerts although she works round-the-clock shifts at the busy outpatients d e p a r t m e n t of St. 'l'homas' Hospital where she quali- fied lsst year.

Teen-age overweights - dust off adream. Youcanhaveahoneyof a figure: What's more. you can actually predict the date at which you can be down to healstgy nor- mal welght. Visualize your with a shapely waist, then act to make your dream come true. Turn your food. habits in the right direction and you can eat heartily and slim down naturally. It's fattening food habits that "grow" on you.

This column is strictly for you teenagers who are so, over- welgbt you are missina out on a lot of fun. Wake up - you don't have to go on lugging around 25 or SQ excess pounds. The science of nutrition has taken an the KIIGSS work out of I "ucing. Interested? Ilere we go...

To reduce you must burn a little of the stored fat each day for part of your fuel or energy needs. The fuel value of food is easured in calories. Ordinarily. you teen-age girls require 2400 calories a day. which sets your reducing calories at around 1400 daily.

It isnt necessary to count calor- ies - just swing your food habits into the pattern that furnishes ap- proximately l400 calories a day and you can lose 2 pounds 8 Week. shape up and come alive. Here's the way it figures: One pound of body fat yields 3500 calories. On 1400 calories. you call on stored fat for 1000 calories a day. or 'l000 a week. There it is, two pounds off. (Overweight teen-age boys can reduce on 1600 to 1800 calories a

ay.) .

But no daffy diets! Your daily fare must be built around the pro tective foods - 3 glasses of milk or skim milk or buttermilk; citrus fruit or juice. plus two other fruits; vegetables. including one green leafy or yellow plus two others: eggs. one or two; lean meat. fish or fowl - generous serving; whole grain cereal and 3 thin slices bread; butter, three teaspoons.
