I stood for an hour by the U.S. information center, just inside the American Pavilion, watching these three cheerfully answer questions from a steady stream of visitors.' My own reaction was one of pride in these girls, all attractive, all looking well-scrubbed and neat in their pale gray two-piece suit uniforms. They are doing a good job of diplomacy at the, person- to-person level. And the European reaction to them is friendliness in return. s "So many of them come back to say we are nice," Miss Karlan said. All told, we have li)0 hostesses working in various parts of the American Pavilion, plus other young men and women serving as guides and demonstrators.- The iiostesscs were selected for their personality, appearance and intelligence. And all speak at least two languages besides English. I asked the three girls what questions were most frequent. All three agreed they were: "Where can we gel a hot dog?" (any snack bar). . "Where is Circarama?" (an impressive, and free, tour of the United Slates with a movies-in-the round technique): and "Where are the rest rooms?"

Male Manners Discussed By Both Sexes .i - , .. ,v: By GAY PAULEY . , UPI Women's Editor ., NEW YORK (UPI) , Well, all I said was that New York men hud misplaced their' manners. And then came the deluge! Letters on the subject of men and chivalry poured in from both sexes and all parts of the nation, commenting on my recent gripe that men raced me for cabs, sub way seats, elevators and telephone booths: that, in short, men were NOT behaving like gentlemen. Or, like this girl born a little farlhc. south than Manhattan had grflivn up expecting them to. Wimsical letters, some of them in rhyme, came across the desk So did letters agreeing the "100 per cent American boys" no long er had the virtue of good man ners, but saying wo women could take some of the blame because we competed with men- -foc jobs and we'd' lost some of our' own feminity. And most of all, letters from irate males castigating me for carping. Some samples:- From a "fan" in San Diego who signed himself "a New Yorker." "I would like 'to compliment you on being the biggest blowhard in New York City - quite a feat in a city so large. "Having worked in New York for the last decade, leaving your wonderful chivalrous South to do so, it must have become etched in your feeble little mind that you weren't the only one to leave the hills in search of civilization.. . "Please, lady, go home and take your playmates with you." A reader named Steve Bennett, 20, who signed his letter "an American, an Oklahoman, and a gentleman" agreed manners were gone but said it was because women ' "have become too inde pendent. They are trying to place themselves on the same level as men , socially, economically and every other way. . .When women start acting like ladies, then men will start acting like gentlemen." "I agree that there is a dearth of good manners," wrote Theodore II. Friedcnberg, in "Letters to the editor" in the Philadelphia Bulle tin. "But she 'this columnist) should have been more accurate to address her remarks to both men and women rather than only men. "On countless occasions,- while sitting on a bus or subway, I have been banged by some wom an's pocketbook without so much as a 'Sorry' or 'Excuse me'. Another Philadelphian - devoted three pages to tell me that "chiv alry is indeed dead. . .Where wo part company, however, is who killed It....."- - "Just try protecting one of those 'weak' females," he wrote. "If you don't end up on your back in a gutter, you'll at least need a couple of Philadelphia lawyers to get you out of the pokey. Gener ally the male is too busy protect ing himself from some female to have time being chivalrous. . ."

Want A Friend It the, e is a lone woman in a group of married couples, the men should make sure that she is looked after.

In such a situation ' it is down- right' rude for the men to Jet a woman look after herself. . -o- For one woman to make a cat ty remark about another as soon as she leaves a group is not only unkind; it gives the other women present the uncomfortable con viction that, if they should leave, the same woman would have something critical to say of them.
