On The Side
ly E. V. Durling
(Distributed by King Faaturae Syndicate. Ine.1
Speculators are reported as
demanding 10 times the box
office price for tickets to top
Broadway theatrical hits. The
prevalence of this type of skull
duggery is especially objection
able during a period in which
New Yorkers are trying to con
vince people from other sections
that the big town is a great place
to spend a summer vacation. The
efforts of some of the theatrical
producers to eliminate speculat
ing are suspiciously weak. How
about selling the best seats only
at the box office, at regular
prices and making them non
transferable? The buyer would
simply have to put his signature
on the ticket to make it non
transferable. Horses and Woman
' As to that comparison of
male and female," writes a San
Franciscan. "Women cry easier
but are tougher mentally. Men
are more honest in admitting
mistakes, apologize easier and
much more gracefully. Few men
nag most women do but the
women don't think they are
'nagging but just pushing 'stu
pid men' along."
Asides
The fine art of saying much in
a few words is best displayed in
effective slogans. As for ex
ample, the slogan of the Holland
American Line which is: "It is
good to be on a well run ship''
. . . My progress continues to
amaze me. Now I have two read
ers in Sour Lake. Tex., and one
in Gig Harbor, Wash.
Dining
What is your wife's favorite
restaurant? And, why? The most
popular restaurant among the
smart women of Paris is that of
the Hotel Ritz on the Place Ven
done. Why? New lighting equip
ment and the dominating color
scheme of the room is believed
responsible. Charles Ritz, the
manager, recently observed,
"Any woman with a brain in her
head will move heaven and earth
to dine in a restaurant where
the lighting makes her look love
ly." Sisters
In Melvindale, Mich., is a
drive-in restaurant operated by
11 sisters. It is called "The Elev
en Sanzo Sisters' Rest." If that
isn't the world's record for
sisterly partnership what is? The
Sanzo girls have three brothers
but they are not in the drive-in
partnership. Incidentally, give a
thought to the feelings of a girl
marrying a fellow with 11 sis
ters. Imagine the ordeal of a
prospective bride having fixed
upon her the critical gaze of 11
future sisters-in-law.
Beauty
At what national convention
are assembled the most beauti
ful women? How about that of
the "Klipwings"? That is an an
nual gathering which brings out
quite a bevy of beauties. It is an
organization of former United
Airlines stewardesses. When they
married they were automatical
ly retired. They had their "wings
clipped." Hence the name Klip
wings. Passing By
Paul Getty, pioneer oil man.
Been an independent oil pro
ducer since he was 22. Has been
married five times. Is a distin
guished and discerning art col
lector. Also a clever writer on
the subject of collector's items.
Has many business side issues,
one of which is the ownership
of the Hotel Pierre, which many
people who should know say is
now the leading hotel in Man
hattan. Asking
Queries from clients. Q. You
referred to a Guy Lombardo
recording in which Buddy Clark
handled the vocal. Can't find it
in any music shop. Help please.
A. You have it wrong, sir. I said
it was an Eddy Duchin record in
which Buddy Clark handled the
vocal.

Additional Awards
Received for Ideas
Rochester, N. Y. U.R) Two
employees have received sub
stantial additional awards for
ideas that first earned money for
them a year ago under Eastman
Kodak's suggestion system.
Ned Bauer of Rochester re
ceived an additional award of
$2,000 for an idea which brought
him S2.500 in 1955. The sugges
tion led to a change in the
method of returning unexposed
sections of 35 mm. film to cus
tomers. Roy Ammering of Spencer
port, N. Y., received an addi
tional S1.700 (or his suggestion
concerning an automatic nega
tive release on Kodacolor print
ers. Since 1939. Ammering has
been awarded $6,696 for his
ideas.
Around Hollywood
By ALINE M05BY
United Press Correspondent
Editor's note: Aline Mosby is on
vacation. Betty Hulton takes over the
Hollvwood column to defend Elvis
Presley and the rock -n' roUers.
By BETTY HUTTON
Wriften for United Press
Hollywood UP.) Elvis Pres
ley is like eating olives it's
hard to be neutral. Either you're
mad for him or mad at him.
Me? I'm for him for rock 'n'
roll for the whole cool, crazy
bit.
The people who object to Pres
ley are parents. Teenagers who
don't like him, and there are
thousands, just ignore him and
listen to someone else. But the
parents get all unhinged. They
seem to forget how mad their
versions of the Lindy hop or the
big apple made their waltz
loving parents a few years ago.
I've got a personal reason to
stand up for the kid of the side
burns. Jitterbug Draws Protests
It wasn't too long ago that
irate and disturbed parents were
hoping their children wouldn't
copy me. There were letters to
editors, heated discussions and
angry noises about "America's
No. 1 jitterbug." My shrieks
and shouts, my gyrations, my at
tempts to imitate a whirling
dervish with a hotfoot were de
plored so long and so loud that
I became famous.
Now that I'm in a star role I
sing like a perfect lady, such as
in "Spring Reunion." I'm not
predicting that Elvis will ever
mellow into a relaxed Crosby
type, but time works wonders.
Who ever thougth old calliope
me would learn there are other
ways to attract an audience ex
cept by shattering their ear
drums.
Presley Takes Blame
If parents want to worry about'
something you suggest they think
of poor old Presley. This year's
fad is next year's fizzle. If Elvis
can survive this fast fad buildup
then he deserves to be a star.
If he can't, well, he'll be for
gotten long before today's teen
agers are parents and have kids
of their own to worry about.
One thing I've learned is that
the public responds to a per
former who is tuned to the same
wave length they're on. Kids
are kids, now and forever. They
look for something new because
it would be unthinkable just to
accept the same things their par
ents like. They respond to a basic
beat in music and when you
take away all the fuss and feath
ers, that's what rock 'n' roll of
fers them.
