Hollywood U.R) A revo lution that may topple the na tion's economy, or at least the fur business, IS U 1 t W I II g here today. Two boys have launched an "Anti -Davy Crockett' club. This move ment to de throne the current idol Aline Mosby w a s hatched over bicycles and spraying hoses on a hot afternoon down the street from some friends of mine. When word filtered through the palm trees of this simmering plot 1 crept into the circle to report on the conspirators. The leaders of the insurgents are Anthony Wilde, 11, and Hillary Silver, 10. They are collecting neighbor hood anti-D.C. members because: 1. Davy was a low-living gam bler and a drinking man and not "as perfect as Disney says." 2. It was all a commercial plot to get kids to buy coonskin caps, anyway. "We"re starting a club and Hilary's cousin in Salinas, Calif., already has one," reported young Wilde. They Don'l Swallow It "No man is that good. Davy is just a superman in a coon skin cap and we don't swallow that stuff. It's nothin' the way he really was. "Disney said he died last in the Alamo!" continued Anthony. "Actually the whole battle was a terrible military mistake. "Davy used to gamble, we learned in school. But Disney shows him as such a clean guy, discouraging gambling 'n every thing. Nobody could be that good. My dad's great but he gets traffic tickets sometimes." Hillary further orated that the real Crockett "knocked out guys and cheated people out of money." "How could he have killed a bear when he was three?" snort ed Hillary. "And he didn't grin any ole' bear to death. Every body in our school's against him. Frankly, we're bored by Davy Crocket. Have to Buy Things "The worse thing is you have to buy things. Instead of kids buying books out of their allow ance, they have to buy hats. If you don't buy one, you're an oddball. "The good pioneers are the I IT1 mm' '.' " 11 1"''""'1 I ones like Daniel Boone," added Hillary as he peeled a grape with grimy fingers. "He didn't stand around and go to Con gress. He went out and pioneer ed." The programs and movies they do like, they decided, are "Las sie," "Shane," "The Kentuck ian," "High Noon" and Edward R. Murrow. The kids' first job is to change a proposed 'Davy Crockett High school" here to "Albert Einstein High school." I inquired if members of the anti-Davy Crockett group could be identified by membership buttons. "No!" screamed the boys. "We don't want to buy anything!"
