Around Hollywood Hollywood (U.R) It's chic these days to drive a snappy for eign car in Hollywood, and now v you have to acquire every thing from a cow caller to a new set of "manners" for them, too. British, Ital ian and French cars are nosing out Aline Mosby "lc models on Sunset boulevard, and this in volves a new caste system. Jaguar drivers, for example, always honk and wave at other Jaguar owners whether they know them or not. Hillman Minx owners also acknowledge other Minx drivers with a gay salute. Jaguars, however, rarely greet Minxes, which don't cost as much. Likewise, the owner of the pre-1949 British MG, with spoke wheels and a right-hand drive, just sniffs at a filmster who cruises about in the American ized MG with the left-hand drive. . "It's like in yachting," ex plains Peter Whitehead, at In ternational Motors, which sells foreign cars to the film colony. Nothing to Compare "You get to know other for eign car- owners by sight. Yachtsmen never have to be in troduced. They pull into a dock and start comparing notes. Am erican car owners don't compare notes because there's nothing to compare. Those cars are exactly alike. But you can't find any two foreign cars in this town that are alike. They're made mostly by hand, and all have different accessories." "American custom-built cars? Oh, yes, we allow them in our sports car racing meets," he shrugs. "But only one has ever entered."

HOLLAND IN UTAH Salt Lake City (U.R) A touch of Holland from almost 50 im migrants prevails at Utah's Hill Air Force base. , Fresh from their native country with Eng lish words still stumping them, the immigrants are working in the shops and hangars at the base. By ALINE MOSBY United Press Correspondent aid O'Connor, Humphrey Bo gart, Clark Gable and Stewart Granger. Liz Taylor gave Mi chael Wilding a dark blue "Jag" as they're dubbed around here, for a birthday present. These fancy cars call for fancy outfits. Lana Turner gives the tourists a treat by wearing in a white Jaguar, white slacks, white sweater, white shoes and white hair. Her car is initialed in gold. Heiress Dora Stillman Hutch inson, wife of actor Jody Hutch inson, dons pedal pushers de signed by Adrian and a pearl studded helmet designed by Rex before she steps into her racy MG. . Various Type Horns One Jaguar boasts a horn from the Superchief. Others tinkle with those Bermuda car riage bells, while some sound like cows. "June Allyson was on location for a movie in Texas when she met a rancher whose car horn sounds like the love call of a cow," says Whitehead.' "It's for rounding up strays. She put one on Powell's car for a gag. Now everybody is buying them." These horns can be played to a loud bawl or softened to a faint moo. yoa'll love em I New Westinghouse BUG-AWAY insect bulbs make out door living pleasant for you.
