I would like the Clothesline Project to French fashion show highlights 'fun in the sun' style By Suzy Patterson ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER PARIS The message from Chanel was clear: The summer is all about fun in the sun.

But the focus in this cheery and youthful show was. natural ly, on what Chanel is better known for: its clothing and accessories.

For apres-beach, Lagerfeld offered a lot of flirtatious silky minis with little cardigans, look ing good with mother-of-pearl trim. No matter how many new details he dreamed up, the Chanel touch was almost always present. DEPO-PROVERA This product is intended to prevent pregnancy.

If the shirt memorializes a woman killed, those mak ing it are asked to include the name, home town and the victim's dates of birth and death, if possible. The rest of the shirt is left to the survivor, relative or friend making it. One shirt in East Halls tells the story of a 22-year-old beaten to death, while another describes a lifetime of sexual abuse, ending with the message that "you have won because you have survived." "The shirts are pretty disturbing, but they definitely get the message across," said Anthony Frederick (freshman-political science). DelPonte said the shirts are there to tell the stories of victims and survivors. "I think the violence certainly comes through," she said. Those wishing to donate shirts to the Clothesline Project may do so at the office of the Center for Women Studies, 102 Boucke Building. accessories though some might prefer to accessorize the more traditional Chanel way, with a strand of pearls. Valentino took his audience on an elegant safari, the big Paris theme this season. Not more camouflage, groaned some in the audience. But it all turned out to be a nice homage to an Andy Warhol painting called "Camouflage" from 1986. It was just a backdrop, not an all-pervading style. There were jungle-desert fla vors in the clothes like a well fitted taupe jacket with cream linen pants. Pretty safari jackets in sandy suede came on with matching hot pants. 13irth control you think aßout just Li- x a year.

Dartford Grammar School in Kent county, southern England, said Monday the 59-year-old singer wants the money to be used for programs that will encourage children to study music. "I believe we should encourage children to sing and play instruments from an early age," Jagger said from the United States, where the Rolling Stones are on tour "It is so important that they have somewhere like this where they can share their musical ideas and vision and be able to practice for as long as they like," he said. The school's music center, which opened two years ago, is named Red Rooster after the Rolling Stones' No. 1 British hit "Little Red Rooster."
