TWO MEDFOHD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE
Leading Hair Stylist Owns
Comb, Scissors,
By GAY PAULEY
Uniled Press Women's Editor
New York TP Have comb,
will commute. That's Ernest Ad
ler, hair stylist for Faye Emer
son, Polly Bergen, Patti Page,
"My Fair Lady," "Li'l Abner"
and numerous other television
and theater stars and produc
tions. Adler, a Eostonian who was
fired from his first beauty shop
job, is known in the entertain
ment industry as "The Comb."
He sticks his comb, scissors
and manicure shears in his
pocket and commutes from art
ists' homes to TV studios to. the
theater. On occasion, he gets as
far as California to design hair
dos for a movie.
He has no shop of his own.
He explained he doesn't need
one. Most stars he works with
have shampooing and drying
equipment at their own homes;
or, it's backstage.
Adler Moves Fast
I finally caught up with the
fest-moving Adler at the Ira
Senz establishment, just a few
doors off Broadway.
Senz is a leading wigmaker
for the entertainment world. He
is the son of Adolf Senz, who
for 52 years was chief hairdress
er for the Metropolitan Opera
company.
Senz has Adler in his hair a
great deal of the time.
"Wouldn't work with any oth
er wigmaker," said Adler. He

But No Shop
I was snipping away at a set of
I thick black curls.
j "They're for Lena Home,"
said Adler. "We will tuck her
real hair under a turban and
pin these on for 'Jamaica.' Hair
pieces hold curl better than the
real thing . . . we bake the curl
in, in an oven.
. "Jamaica," a musical, is due
on Broadway next month. Senz
also will do the hair-styling for
the Helen Hayes show, "Time
Remembered," for "Romanoff
and Juliet," and "Copper and
Brass."
"Six shows a season, that's
about all I have time for on
Broadway," said Adler. "Tele
vision keeps me busy. I do the
hair styles for the Perry Como
show for the girls, not Perry.
For trade shows, Judy Garland
and Patrice Munsel wouldn't be
without me.
Was Page Boy
"Know that funny bang Judy
wore in 'A Star Is Born?' Did it
with manicuring scissors."
Adler said his first experi
ence in the entertainment world
was as a page boy at the Capitol
Theater. Then he had a few
dancing jobs on Broadway, be
fore he studied hairdressing and
makeup. His first beauty shop
job lasted two weeks.
"They told me I was making
all the customers look alike,"
said Adler. "I got fired Christ
mas eve."
Adler, in 18 years of hair styl
ing, has worked with nightclub
singers, the chorus line at the
Roxy, toured with Dorothy La
mour, Betty Grable, Helen For
rest and the late Carole Landis.
He has styled for TV shows ever
since TV.
Adler believes he has set off
many a fad.
"Look at all the copying or
the 'My Fair Lady' look," he
said. 'Or at the thousands of
women who aped the Faye Em
erson Chignon, or the Garland
bang."

The old folks, at home, impatiently waiting to hear how the
one and only child was making out in a foreign land, were pleased
to find her first letter in the mailbox Monday night.
"My first landing on foreign soil was at Prestwlck, Scotland,
at 7 a.m. the morning of September 4." she wrote. My watch said
2 a.m. and it seemed very strange to have it light outside at that
hour. The weather consisted of what the purser called a 'thick
scotch mist' and was very similar to the usual weather in western
Washington.
"We stopped there for a little less than an hour, and then flew
on to Frankfort, where I had a two-hour layover and changed
planes. I was so tired that I didn't notice much there. I went
through customs at Frankfort, which consisted of having my pass
port checked- and being asked if I had any coffee, cigarettes or
whiskey to declare. My suitcases weren't opened.
"We took off at noon for Berlin, and as I was sitting on the in
side on the three-seats-across side, I didn't see very much of East
Germany. The other passengers appeared to be quite interested,
and spent most of the time looking out the windows. I noticed,
too, that when lunch was served they all cleaned up their plates
more thoroughly than Americans usually do.
"The first thing that struck me about Berlin were the differ
ence in climate (probably a 30 degree drop in temperature from
New York) and the abundance of flowers, trees and grass. Com
pared to Manhattan, Berlin has almost a rural atmosphere. Every
thing is clean here, down to the public restrooms where an at
tendant, who collects 10 pfennig (between two and three cents in
American money) from you, is always on duty. The streets are
kept immaculate by uniformed street cleaners.
"Kenny had a day off yesterday, so we went shopping. We
picked up some inexpensive pots and pans, and a raincoat and
plastic boots for me. In this climate such things are absolutely
necessary.
"The raincoat is a very good one, with a zip-in nylon lining
that is interlined with plastic foam and styled with storm sleeves.
With the lining in it is a good warm coat. We bought it at the PX,
along with the cooking pans. We also bought a starter set of white
plastic Boontonware, and a set of glasses.
"The main PX here is quite large, and carries merchandise
from all over Europe. One of our first investments was an Olym
pic portable typewriter.
"I'don't know just what the temperatures have been here since
I arrived, but I do know that it is already colder than I would like,
and because of the dampness, the cold is very penetrating. Our
landlady firmly believes that it doesn't get cold until October 1, no
matter what the thermometer says. Consequently we have no heat
in our room for another two weeks, at which time our rent goes
up 30 marks. Starting October 1 our rent will be 150 marks a
month (approximately $36). For that we have a room with a bal
cony, and we share the bathroom and kitchen.
"It has been so cold in the place that I have been spending
most of my time in the Service club at the compound where Ken
ny is stationed.
There is a wealth of material here my main problem will be
finding the time to write about it."
. ,
Monday Potpourri felt a little discouraged. First there was our
meeting with a young girl, pretty and intelligent looking, who is
to be married soon without ever having gone to high school. Then
we were told the story of a teen-age boy who arrived in Medford
from another state apparently alone in the world and trying to
earn a living although he can barely read and write.
Then PH, busy with scissors as she read the last issue of "Date
line," publication of the National Association of Manufacturers,
put the following clipping on our desk! "The President, as well as
the Defense, Labor and Health, Education and Welfare depart
ments, are greatly concerned because 40 per cent of American
youth quit school at the 8th grade in 1956."
Last, but not least, was the depressing effect of the news from
Little Rock, Ark. O.S.
