LIFE'S COVER: "FALL FASHIONS" -- The girl on LIFE'S cover this week is wearing a new necklace devised by Michael Paul, jewelry designer for Hattie Carnegie, to go with the new fashions (pp. 115 -- 125). Like most professional models she has a name with memory value. It is Truly Barbara (her real name is Barbara Louise Heine). She acquired the Truly Barbara when she first started modeling and her face began appearing in national magazines. Her mother's friends in Philadelphia saw it and always asked, "Was that truly Barbara?" It truly was. It truly is on page 123, too.
