By GAY PAULEY
UPI Women's Editor
BRUSSELS I UPI I The All
American girl is a hit with all
who visit the U.S. Pavilion at the
Brussels World's Fair. And this
includes the men who first ask
the hostesses tor information but
stick around to ask for dates.
The information is readily avail
able; the dates are not.
"Oh, 1 have plenty ofsocial life
here." said Kaye KarUin, a blue
eyed brunette of 23, l'r,pn Denver,
Colo.
"But most- of us date boys
we've met through Jrjnds, the
same as back home. We.get plen
ty of oilier offers, especially from
UI's stationed over here," said

"We expect that," laughed
Frcida Weisblatt, 21, of Fort

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. Being a lone wo
man in a group of couples can
be awkward unless the men are
courteously attentive.
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.
It' doesn't pay for a woman to
be catty not if she wants
