On The Side
By E. V. DURLING
(Distributed by King Features
Syndicate. Inc.)
The scarcity of reliable baby
sitters continues. It may soon be
necessary for mothers to carry
their infants with them at all
times as the Indian squaws do.
There might be an opportunity
for somebody to originate a pop
ular priced, smart looking pap
oose carrier. Incidentally, it is
said when a baby is with its
mother at all times, it is very
good for the infant. Babies left
alone too much develop fears
that can have an adverse effect
on their after life. If you have
an infant at your house call this
to the attention of your wife.
Perhaps you could give her a
nice papoose carrier for a birth
day present.
Please Note
v In my photographic collection
is a snapshot of the great Balti
more ringman of the yesteryear,
Joe Tipman, standing by the
grave of "Terrible Terry" Mc
Govern in Calvary Cemetery,
Brooklyn. Terry had a great
ring career but much sorrow
entered into his private life. His
two beloved children died young.
He, himself, was only 38 when
he passed on. The inscription on
the brilliant McGovern's tomb
stone reads:
"Erected by Terry and Grace
McGovern in memory of their
beloved daughters, Lillian C.
born September 10, 1900, died
January 4, 1904 and Anna Mabel
McGovern born August 19, 1903,
died June 28, 1904. Terry Mc
Govern born March 9, 1880, died
February 22, 1918. Beloved hus
band of Grace McGovern."
Horses and Women
"How is it men can keep femi
nine secretaries so long in their
employ while only one woman
in a thousand can keep a cook
or maid more than a few
months?" That's the query put to
us by an executive, who saye he
has had the same secretary for
21 years and that his wife has
had five different maids in the
past eight months. I cannot an
swer this interesting question
offhand. Have requested our
horses and women experts to
check it thoroughly.
Says She
"Now there is a film to be
titled "The Man Who Chased
Redheads'," writes a feminine
subscriber. Also one titled 'The
Man Who Loved Redheads. I
am growing very weary of all
this attention showered on red
heads. It has made the straw
berry blondes unbearable bores
and insufferably conceited. The
way they act you would think
having red hair is a personal
achievement instead of a matter
of heredity. Redhaired women
are rarely of a high order of in
telligence. Consider their taste
in dress. They, always wear the
the wrong colors. I am glad I am
a browneyed, honey blonde
However, I don't take personal
credit for my hair coloring and
beauty. I thank my father and
I thank my mother. Think it
over, redheads. Give heredity a
little credit."
Asking
Queries from clients. Q. How
old is the song titled "Darktown
Strutters' Ball"? A. Just about
40 years old. Was written by
Shelton Brooks in 1915. Was in
troduced by the original Dixie
land Jazz Band. Q. Where can
be found the poetic line: "If win
ter comes can spring be far be
hind?" A. It is from Shelley's
"Ode to the West Wind." Q.
-Who originated the terms "ex-
trovert" and "introvert."' A.
Carl Jung, Swiss psychiatrist.
Briefly
It was Louis W. Hill, presi
dent of the Great Northern Rail
way, who originated the slogan,
"See America First." ... An
amazing number of people who
consider themselves well in
formed can't even tell you how

Around Hollywood
By ALINE MOSBY .
United Press Correspondent
Hollywood (U.R) If any
body's interested, Maureen
O'Hara applied today for the
" jb o "ding
York wearing
a horse ' and
four -foot long
hair.
Maureen is
one of the more
c o n s e rvative
citizens of the
Aline Mosby plaster city.
But she surprisingly wants to
play Lady Godiva in public be
cause, of course, she climbed
into that long wig for a motion
picture, "Lady Godiva."
But the stunt is Maureen's
idea not Universal Interna
tional Studio's.
"I don't think there's enough
glamour and exploitation for
movies these days," she said
"Except for Marilyn Monroe.
Thank God for her! She was
sorely needed here.
No Bullring "
"I've turned down a lot of
stunts since I came to Holly
wood," she added, "because they
weren't right for me or the pic
ture. "I refused to get in a 'bullring
in Mexico City for the opening
of 'The Magnificent Matador.'
In Latin countries .women do not
wear pants and get in bull rings.
But a Lady Godiva is all right
if handled in good taste."
The Irish beauty has some ta
boos for that ride on a white
horse through Gotham. The pic
lure opens in New York in Octo
ber, a season not suited to bare
back rides in the bare.
"I might have to wear in
sulated tights up to my nose" she
laughed. "And a hot water bot
tle under the saddle. Earmuffs,
maybe. t ;
"And I would insist that the
ride be tied up to some tremen
dous charity. And preferably in
doors, such as at Madison Squre
Garden. The wind, you know"
Bikini Godiva
The day the red-haired star re
enacted Lady Godiva's historical
nude ride through Coventry for
the movie, the outdoor set at
U-I was closed.
"First I worse flesh-colored
tights underneath the wig," she
continued. "But on film I could
sse the tights and my skin and
it didn't look right. We did the
scene over in a Bikini bathing
suit." -
The three-pound wig of blonde
hair covered Maureen, more or
less, almost to her ankles. The
wind was not blowing that day
Maureen's portrayal of Lady
Godiva fits in with her long ca
reer of starring in low-cut
swashbuckling . adventure mov
ies, and low-cut desert epics
Reporter's Story

Before he could write his
