SECOND TERM FOR IKE Republican National Chair
man Leonard Hall tells reporters at the White House that
he still thinks President Eisenhower will be available for
, a second term.
On The Side

To love, to believe.

Waller.
What state has the highest
percentage of elderly - automo
bile drivers? Some say it is Cal
ifornia. Others claim it to be
Florida. I think it is Florida.
I recall it being reported that
recently in Palm Beach, Fla.,
n 81 year old man driving a
1925 Ford collided head on with
an 83 year old man driving a
1923 Ford.
Asking
--. Queries from clients.-Q. Do
you recall a aance team oilled
as "Eleanora Hughes and Maur
ice?" A. No sir. However, one
of the greatest-of all ballroom
dance teams was that of Maur
ice Mouvet and Florence Wal
ton, who were billed as "Maur
ice and Walton." They , were ri
vals of Mr. and Mrs. Vernon
Castle. Many dance enthusiasts
thought them more accomplish
ed than the Castles.
Understanding Women '
; The .University of London,
Greer Garson's alma mater, now
has a course for men on "How
to Understand Women." Certain
ly a step in the right direction.
Greer should volunteer to deliv
er a lecture at her alma mater
on how to understand a red
haired 'woman. . However, it is
doubtful she will. Red - haired
women want to remain a mys
tery to the male. They want
to be loved, not understood.
Offic Wives - i -
What's your secretary's speed
rating? Record for typing is 135
words a minute. For stenograph
ic dictation, 250 words a min
ute. Speed -ratings are figured
on basis of records. If your girl
Friday can type at the rate of
100 words a minute her speed
rating is about 85. If she can
take dictation at 200 words per
minute her speed rating is 87.
As a stenographer-typist, her
combined speed rating would be
about 86. How about docking
your charming amanuensis to
morrow? . -Unmentionables
Note a reference to "what
grandma called unmentionables.
Whose grandma? There is prob
ably not a grandma alive today
who recalls thaving used the
term "unmentionables" in her
youth. That was used ' in the
days of your great-great-grandma.
It is just about 100 years
ago that Sarah Josepha Hale,
then editor of Godey's Lady's
Book, . campaigned for "discard
ing the: term "unmentionables"
in reference to intimate femin
ine attire and using in its stead
the French term "lingerie." '
Asides
Record for variety of " pets
kept in one New York City ap
artment is held by Fannie Hurst.
At one time, " Fannie harbored
in her apartment six dogs, two
cats, two monkeys and fourteen
birds . i .-When Dempsey floor
ed -Tunney for that ','14 count"
in their Chicago meeting, it was
the first time Gene had ever
been floored in his long ring
career.
Art Lesson ,.:,.,
A surprising number of those
who flatter themselves as having
a knowledge of art can't even
correctly pronounce the name of
Vincent Van Gogh. How , about
you, sir? . . . In this country
over 7,000,000 persons are on
government payrolls. This is an
all time high. It includes Feder
al, State, city and county gov
ernments. . .
Drinkers ' ' "
The world's most durable
drinkers are the Dutch. A Hol
lander thinks nothing' of drink
ing ' eight gins before dinner.
After dinner he switches to
whisky and brandy. Yet an in
ebriated person is rarely seen
on the streets of any city, in
Holland. The Dutch really know
how to handle their liquor.
