NICHOLS United Press Future Writer Washington (U.R) I had been wondering what Elvis Pres ley has that I don t where the ladies are con cerned. I found out the other night. Beverly, my 'teen-aged daughter, said I should s i t around the video and have a look at the Uirmin Nicbols hnv who acts like he's playing the git-tar and baying at the moon at the same time.

He wears cheek-whiskers that make him look a little like old Abe Lincoln, our wood-hopping President. In addition to sound ing something like a hound dog he can wiggle like a captive por poise coming out of a tank for a fish. Also, I learned, after some re search that the young man owns three Cadillacs, few million fans, and thumbs his nose at his critics on the way to the bank each payday. Just Jealous To me ,the young hillbilly looked like a sardine which had been in an open can too long. I guess 1 am just jealous. Bev said: "Watch this, Daddy." The boy turned his profile, screwed up his lips and put on a "nobody loves me" look in his sad eyes. The young fry in the TV studio audience had been told not to shout and scream. They had, in fact, promised, honor bound, not to. But shout and scream, they did. And there was some hootin' and hollerin' in my own living room. I moved back three or four chairs. That didn't do much good. What I had hoped to see was a drama on another channel that had been advertised for weeks. I happen to know one of the actors, an old friend named Otto Hullett. Pie was supposed to be terrific in something or other starring Mary Martin. Beverly said she would swal low her sorrow and drown it with a soft drink. I could operate the TV for a few minutes. Wrong Channel I switched to another station and got nothing but a commer cial, peddling something or an other. Plus a short take on some body teaching somebody else how to play gin rummy. Our daughter took over again, and there was Elvis in all of his glory, rolling around and acting like a sick cow and stirring up a riot among the 'teeners in the gallery. And Elvis loving every minute of it. I still don't know how Mary Martin came out over the villain who was supposed to be her boss. Also whether my friend Otto delivered the punch line to the play, like he promised me he would. I am left with the awful thought that Elvis must have a lot that I don't HAVE. The lad had a lot of something, that's for certain. Maybe a good press agent. He also gets a considerable part of my earnings from me from sale of gramaphone records. Lack of Speed Limit Blamed for Air Crash Washington (U.R; An Air Force general attributes the death of the pilot of the record breaking X2 rocket plane on failure to impose a speed limit on him. Capt. Milburn G. Apt plunged to his death Sept. 27 in his cock pit capsule when the X2 crashed after setting a world speed rec ord of 2,100 miles an hour. It was the 32-year-old pilot's first flight in the test plane. Brig. Gen. J. Stanley Holtoner. commander of the flight test center at Edwards Air Force base in California where the X2 was based, said in an official Air Force report that "every super visory guy from me down has criticized himself because if we had told this boy to stop at a spe cific speed, this wouldn't have happened," Holtoner said. Eagle Point Woman Hurt in Accident Mary Isabell Huffman, 45, of Eagle Point, suffered slight chest and knee injuries about 4:30 p.m. when the car she was op erating collided with a car oper ated by Virgil Harvey Conner, 52, Eagle Point, at the Eagle Point junction on Highway 62, according to state police.
