Edith Adams
To Play Role
Of Daisy Mae
BY ELIZABETH TOOMEY
United Press Correspondent
New York (U.R) Shapley
singer Edith Adams is rehears
ing the Broadway role of a
famous blonde who already has
been imitated by more pretty
teenagers in the past 20 years
than any move star.
Mimicry is an art which Miss
Adams displayed recently be
fore millions of TV viewers in
her now famous imitation of
Marilyn Monroe. Her new role,
however, is tougher than copy
ing Marilyn, the platinum
blonde singer said.
The blonde is named Daisy
Mae. Girls have been pulling
their hair back in pigtails, wear
ing polka dot off -shoulder blouses
and ragged shorts and going to
parties as Daisy Mae almost
since Miss Adams was born.
"I always used to go to mas
querade parties as Daisy Mae
myself," said the singer, who
grew up in Tenafly, N. J.
Now, for the first time, the
comic strip blonde will become
part of a Broadway musical com
edy 'L'il Abner," along with
Abner and the other famed Dog
patch characters. Miss Adams
won the part over more than 200
other candidates and began re
hearsing last week. The musical
opens in Washington September
17 and on Broadway November
15.
First came the problem of a
hairdo. Miss Adams related in a
restaurant interview which was
constantly interrupted by young
autograph seekers. The star,
who is Mrs. Ernie Kovacs in
private life, wore a tight, bright
blue sheath dress and blue-tint-ed
glasses.
"This is my first day without
bangs." she bagan, brushing at
platinum blonde tresses that
dangled over one evebrow.
"Daisy Mae doesn't have bangs,
so now I don't either."
Her complete wardrobe for
the show consists of a very short
pair of black shorts, two Dolka
dot blouses and one dress. Her
eyes will be slightly pulled up at
the outer corners as the comic
strip blonde's are, and she will
stand with one toe turned slight
ly inward, Daisy Mae style.
Pi Phis To Hold

Experts Agree That
Penmanship Is Bad
Chicago (U.R) A conven
tion of handwriting experts
agreed that modern penmanship
is pretty bad, but opinions di
verged .on the reasons why to
day's writing is so sloppy.
One expert pointed an accus
ing finger at current styles in
pen tips. These instruments have
removed the distinctive shading
that formerly characterized sig
natures, he said.
Another called for more con
centration on the teaching of
penmanship. "Even the teachers
don't know how to write any
more," he said.
The fct that everyone Is
taught to write alike with no
emphasis on developing indi
viduality in signatures is anoth
er difficulty cited by the ex
perts, who are all members of
the American Society of Ques
tioned Document Examiners.
Two types of signatures have
not risen or declined in quality,
they said. Bankers and doctors
wrote illegibly 20 years ago,
and still 'do.
And if they are laboring un
der the impression that an odd
signature discourages forgery.
