They're a 1 1 for mush in in westerns p r o v ided the the smooch stuff comes at the end. T h i a star tling fact is the result of a five -week, 22 city tour of the country by Jimmy (Shamrock) Ellison and Russ (Lucky) Hayden, teamed by Lippert productions as the "Irish Cowboys." And it may very well prove to be the newest thing in western movies since old Bill Hart first climbed a-straddle a nag. In each city the cowboys took a "kissing poll" among the kids.

They will play Sonata No. 1, Opus 4, by Corelli; Sonata in C Major, by Bach, and Bach's Concerto in D Minor, all three numbers written for two violins and piano. Students appearing on the program will be Georgia Taylor, Gene Brown, Rosemary Ring, Jean Ring and Mary White, all of Ashland; Anne Duruo and Ar thur Welch of Medford: Colleen Tiegs, Talent; Marvel Gage Coos Bay; Donald Rose, Klam ath Falls, and Marianne Bron ner. Grants Pass. Varied Program The program will consist of varied opera, classical and semi classical numbers. There will be another free re cital of second-year vocal stu dents on the evening of June 2. SOC students studying voice under Mrs. Hufman are assisting in the teaching of music at Bell view school. During the past week, Barbara Gertsen and Al lene Owens led the classes in singing. This week Bill Love will be at Bellview school dur ing the mornings to assist in the music teaching. Others will alter nate there for the remainder of the school year. One of the many titles of King Phumiphon of Thailand is "Lord of Life and Possessor of the Twenty-four Golden Umbrellas." Out of 500,000 bang-bang ad dicts, 87 per cent said it was all right with them if the cowboys indulged in a little romantical smoochin'. And if the experts had just taken the local kids' word for it they could've saved themselves the 12,000 mile trek. Hollywood moppets told 'em the same thing in their first poll six weeks ago. To Open Eye Now that it's official country-wise this it bound to open a lot of eyes in movieland. All along producers have been un der the delusion the young 'uns would rather have the hero kiss his horse than fool around with the sheriff's daughter. The kids, it turns out, think that's kinda silly. "They're gonna get married, aren't they?" was the general comment. "Why not kiss? They'd be foolish if they didn't." But the youngsters put Ellison and Hayden straight on one point: a final cinch is one thing a lot of mush sprinkled in be tween bandit chasin' is Some thing else. The latter they want none of. Shootin' Comes First Kissing they'll go for, as long as they get plenty of action first shootin' and fist-fights and hard riding. Hollywood can cut down on the guitar - strummin' cowboys, too, as far as they're concerned. The kids allowed as how they had better ways to waste their time than by sitting through a lot of yodeling interludes. John Del Valle, Lippert em ployee who chaperoned the "Irish Cowboys" on their "gal lop kiss poll," said you can't judge kids' opinions by the whoopin' and hollerin' that goes on in Saturday matinees. Mob Psychology "That's mob psychology." he added. "Get that many kids to gether and they'll holler about anything. Ask 'em singly, on a secret ballot ,as we did. and they'll vote at least 75 per cent in favor of kissing." Only two cities nixed love on the range. They were Oklahoma City and Indianapolis. Cleveland had a tie vote. Nineteen others from Dallas to New York, said they were all for "kissing cow bovs." In Charlotte, N. C, the poll takers got the clincher. "I like kissing in westerns," a nine-year-old boy scribbled on his card. "That's how 1 learned to kiss Susie."
