Hamburg probably is tlie best place to start your search. Lying in Northern Europe, Hamburg just wouldn't strike the stuffed-alligator hunter as a logical starting place. And because it has the repu tatiim of being a giant port and industrial complex, Ham burg is sometimes overlooked by vacationers in Europe. First off, Hamburg proba bly is Germany's gayest city. And its sights range from the beauties of Outer Alster lake, within hailing distance of the city center, to the after dark dazzle of the St. Pauli district in the port quarter. St. Pauli is home to 400 night clubs, cabarets and bars enjoy one with dinner tonight RIRINGFR RnmillRS. INC. , SI. iteiena, N'pt County, California A CI 1 p!

At least one of the latter is well sup plied with stuffed alligators of nil sizes, left behind by money-short seamen. Plying the waters of the Alster is one of the best ways to get a perspective view of this city. Regular tour boats sail the river-lake, but you also can hop abcard one of the commuter launches that carry people from distant residen tial sections to the heart of the city. The copper-roofed build ings and spires of the cily-St. Michael's church, the Town hall, St. Peter's church-rise up as the boat heads north away from the commercial center. Soon the boat is cruising by tree and flower-lined banks with a seemingly endless suc cession of luxurious homes and apartment buildings in the background. Tunnel Transportation The commuter boats aren't the only way the people of Hamburg have of getting around. The 1.47(i-fool-long Elbe river tunnel, 60 feet be low water level, leads from the St. Pauli district to the free port area and is reached by pedestrians and vehicles on large elevators which drop to the crossing level. The 38-square-mile harbor area is an impressive sight. Every month this biggest of German harbors handles about 1,700 oceangoing ships that come down the Elbe to dock. An hour-and-a-half boat tour passes scores of towering loading cranes, m a m m o t h floating dry-docks, .shipyards and vessels flying flags from around the world. Although an old city, Ham burg suffered severe damage in several wars, especially during the World War II bombings. But ui the shadow of the copper-clad tower of St. Mi chael's church one of the quaintest of medieval streets survives. Inside a narrow en try way, a cobbled ll-foot-wide street is lined bv three story Fresh 79 5 - $l00 10- Cut Wrapped, Quick Frozen . to timbered and brick homes built by merchant guilds in the seventeenth century. St. Michael's, dating from , the mid-18th century, is one1 of the city's important land marks. Another church, St. Nicholas, with its towering 482-foot intricate neo-gothic sandstone steeple, is both a major sight and a memorial. The ruins of the bombed out nave have been undisturbed as a reminder of the destruc tion of war. Hamburg is easily reached (several ship lines serve it) from the United Sates, and Scandinavian airlines system recently inaugurated direct nonstop jet service here from New York). It is a perfect place to begin a visit to Ger many. Prices haven't yet hit the level of some European countries. For example, a single room with bath start from about $5 up. Show People Invest In Motel Business By JOSEPH A. ST. AMANT United Press International peverly Hills, Calif. -U'fli-People in show business are exposed to a lot of hotels, good and bad, during their travels. They are on the re ceiving end of the business as customers but Martin Melch er and his wife, a rather well known singing actress named Doris Day, have pulled a switch.
