Stripper Offers
Bras and Panties
To College Boys
New York U.R) Any more
of you college boys looking for
panties and brassieres?
Get in touch with Miss Lili St.
Cyr of 65 West 52nd Street, New
York city. She's an expert in
taking off clothes, having made
a career of it in night clubs from
coast to coast.
Would Give Panliet
Now Miss St. Cyr is working
on a project to part with a por
tion of her panties and bra sup
ply to each of the colleges where
the men students have pursued
co-ed lingerie in dormitory raids.
"I think they should get a sort
of reward," the blonde origi
nator of the reverse strip said
gently. "It is such a nice sign
when men show an aggressive in
terest in a girl."
She explained apologetically
that, "I never wear black lace
panties," and chided college of
ficials for taking the panty
pranks too seriously.
"I didn't go to college my
self," Lili explained. "But you
learn things in my work that
those professors don't know. Its
really not the panties, you know.
The boys just want to show how
strong and brave they are. It's
a way of getting attention from
the girls, too. And you really
shouldn't discourage a young boy
about things like that."
Federal, state and local taxes,
plus interest charges and
insurance costs, play a big part
in the price of every new car
the first year but you'll find
there's far less to pay the
Henry J way!

Higher Whisky Tax Reducing Revenue For Government
Washington (U.R) The gov
ernment's higher tax on whisky
is having a reverse effect.
Dance School Sued
By Ired Customer
Portland (U.R) Mrs. Er
ma E. Commons, Albany, Ore.,
filed suit in circuit court here
Monday asking $10,000 punitive
damages from the Arthur Mur
ray School of Dancing and its
Portland operators.
Mrs. Commons charged in her
complaint that the firm repre
sented falsely It could improve
her personality and better her
ability to obtain a position, as
well as teach her to dance.
She said the dance school in
duced her to pay $628 last No
vember and to sign an agree
ment to pay an additional $600
for a course in dancing.
She asked that the $628 be re
turned to her, the agreement to
pay $600 be declared invalid
and that she be awarded $10,
000 as punitive damages.
It's cutting down instead of
increasing revenue.
The apparent reason is that
many persons have turned to
beer or wine or to bootleg
gers rather than buy whisky at
the higher prices.
Figured Wrong
The government figured that
consumption of legal whisky
wrould drop when the tax on
distilled spirits was raised from
$9 to S10.50 a gallon last Novem
ber. But it thought the higher
tax would just about offset the
smaller consumption.
The Bureau of Internal Reve
nue had estimated that consump
tion would fall from 194,000,000
in fiscal 1951 to 169,000,000 gal
lons in this fiscal year. At the
same time, it figured that the
liquor tax would yield $1,683,
000,000, compared with actual
collections of $1,746,005,581 in
fiscal 1951.
Revenue To Be Short
From present indications, how
ever, the bureau is going to be
about $150,000,000 short on its
estimate of whisky revenue.
The higher tax has not only
put a crimp in federal income
but has also cut heavily into the
revenues of the 46 states and the
District of Columbia where the
sale of whisky is legal. The states
did not raise their taxes aver
aging $1.66 a gallon when the
federal government boosted Its
excise tax last November. The
reduced sales are beginning to
hurt them even more.
The higher tax also has had its
repercussions In the whisky in
dustry, which has been thrown
into a slump as a result of bulg
ing warehouse supplies and con
sumer resistance to higher
prices.

Miss Chadwick Plans
Four Endurance Swims
New York (U.R) Florence,
Chadwick hopes to set an awe-
inspiring swimming record this
summer with four major endur
ance swims, then retire from
competition.
Not content with being the
only woman ever to swim the
English Channel both ways, the
former secretary wants to make
a "grand slam" before she retires
at 33.
Plans Lilted
As she talked about her plans
in her two-room hotel apartment,
Florence held out a carefully
typed iheet of paper listing the
planned swims.
She wants to swim the 21
miles from Catalina Island to the
California mainland, attempting
to break the record of 15 hours,
40 minutes set by a man 25 years
ago.
From there she would head for
the Dardanelles to swim the leg
endary waters of the Hellespont.
By July 15th she hopes to be

English Channel Again
"Then I d like to wind up with

Florence said.
She was the first woman to

been sick from the boat fumes.

she weights 152 pounds now, the

"I'm 33 now, and you can't go
