Hollywood, Nov. 24 Ui Did you - know the average husband kisses his wife five times a day counting pecks and near-kisses; 62 per cent of 'em get a night out with the boys once a week; and 49 per cent bawl at sad movies? Or . . . for every hatchet-killer running loose there are 12 nice guys who dry dishes for the little woman every night? That every businessman in the U.
