KENTUCKY BLENDED WHISKEY. 86 PROOF. 65% GRAIN NEUTRAL SPIRIT, By Clifford Rowe Elvis Presley, the current bob- b\ sox rage, seems to be causing m ore consternation among th e ad u lt population these days th an even the controversy over the control of th t H-bomb Judging from the pessimistic predictions of some of th e oldsters, th e quitar- tw anging, lim ber-jointed yodeler ol “ Houn Dog” is a greater m en ace to civilization than any atom bomb. Being m uch concerned for my own fu tu re as well as those of generations to come, I did some icsearch to the extent of lis ciung to and w atching this stim ulator ot , girlish shrieks from coast to coast. And I am asham ed to adm it that 1 found nothing to cause me alarm . My tolerance probably stems' from the fact that during my life tim e 1 have gone through so many sim ilar periods of craziness. None of them, as 1 recall, did any greater dam age than to upset th e oldster*, who had outgrow n such foolishness. In fact, it seems only yesterday that young girls were swooning over Rudolph V alentino Then in tu rn came Rudy Valle, Bing Crosby, Frank S inatra, and Johnny Ray—and now Elvis P res ley. , . Naw I'm no psvchologist, b u t somehow I feel th a t the sw eet young things to today who are doing th e scream ing over the side- burned. h illb illy Romeo are just using him as an outlet for some I oi tin ir boundless energies. T hat is why I'm nok a bit wor ried as to their future. A fter all, thei r m others survived Rudy \ al lee; and, w ith the exception of a bri« f middle-aged relapse w ith a rth L ib erate, they came back cape after a period of idiotic lid m e ju st as nice as they ever were. , . , Really I can’t blam e the girls. in their s arch for rom antic idols in the en tertain m en t w orld, th e field i* rath e r narrow and tinpro- ductiv« e. With oldsters of grand- mothei •r’s age still hogging th e spot lig r’ht on TV and radio, Elvis Preslej v is about the only one to day w vho isn’t w e a rin g a toupee o r beii ing wheeled to performances, ; in a v wheel chair. bout St I say q u it wort ; ing girls the youngsters Leave th e n to s(,u- al at Elvis, th e worn to r T.ierace, the men to w listle it M. rilyn Monroe— and le1 s go about our business. i » V; Swept-Wing '57 Dodge Cuitom Royal 4 D oor Sc m r< OUR 6AÇ HEATS’ STOCK TANKS IN A TRÍCE - THERE’S NOTA CHANCE FOR.
