Philatelists Termed an Unusual
Group Which Cherishes Tiny Flaws
Br DICK WEST
United Prut International
Washington - (ITU - You
don't have to smile when you
call a man a philatelist, but
sometimes it's
hard to keep
from it. Stamp
collectors
comprise one
of the few
roups on
earth that
cherish Imper
fection. Even
the smallest
Km flaw in a post
age stamp will send a phila
telist Into spasms of delight.
This passion for the defec
tive seems a mite curious to
those of us who regard the
postage stamp merely as some
thing to mail a letter with.
Some of the controversies
that shake the philatelic
world - as, for example, the
inverted printing of the Dag
H a mmarskjold memorial
stamp last fall - are likely to
cause a non-philatelist to quiv
er with amusement.
Question of Eyebrows
At the moment, it looks like
a major flap is shaping op
over the question of Amelia
Earhart's eyebrows.
A new airmail stamp honor

Biggest "savings book"
in the world
Seeping the Free World free is a mighty
expensive proposition.
And oar enemies are doing everything they
can to make it bo. They've said they expect to
bury us" economically.
They see us as soft, self-satisfied, lazy. They
don't think we're prepared to make any sacri
fices for freedom.
But there's a "special took" in the US.
Treasury Department that says they're as
wrong about that as they are about a lot of
other things.
If s a symbolic "freedom book" which shows
that tens of millions of American families have
invested 46 billions of dollars in their country in
the form of U.S. Savings Bonds. Dollars the
government uses to keep our economy strong.
To help keep the Free World free. ,
This is one way you can meet the challenge to
Americans. And there's no need to feel funny
about collecting good interest on Savings Bonds.
The financial strength of your family is part of
the strength of the nation.
So help yourself as you help your country, by
regular purchase of U.S. Savings Bonds
through the Payroll Savings Plan where you
work, or from any bank.

Bower, who engraved the
stamp, neglected to equip
Miss Earhart's likeness with
eyebrows.
When I heard about this, I
stopped by the department to
take a look at the sample and
also to Inspect a photographic
enlargement of the area
around her eyes.
Bower, who worked from
an old photograph, pictured
Miss Earhart boyishly attired
in slacks and shirt and stand
ing in front of the silver
monoplane in which she dis
appeared.
No Commtnt
To me, her brow seemed as
barren of upholstery as that
of the Mona Lisa. But when
asked a department press
officer whether Bower had in
deed omitted her eyebrows,
all I got was an enigmatic
smile. '
The official policy of the
postal service is to be as in
scrutable as possible. I assume
it seeks to avoid giving the
stamp an Inflated value on the
philatelic market, as might be
the case if word got out that
Bower had goofed.
In addition to the contro
versy over Miss Earhart's eye
brows, there also has been
considerable d I s cussion re
garding her facial expression,
which I would describe as a
"grile," or a cross between a
grin and a smile.
She apparently was squint
ing Into the sun when the
original photograph was
taken. Some philatelists siry
the engraving presents an op
tical illusion in which the
eyes appear open one moment
and closed the next.
Commenting on that, the
press officer said "at eight
cents,:, an animated postage
stamp might be regarded as
one of the better buys of the
year."

Gloria H. - I want my party
to be just for my friends.
Mr. S. R. - We can make It
two-in-one celebration,
.
Gloria H.-We've just moved
to a larger home which has
dining room instead of a
breakfast nook, and a nice
spread of lawn. It's ideal for n
sweet-sixteen party for me,
with lanterns strung up and
dancing on the patio. Right in
the middle of my planning,
Dad informs me that he's ask
ing a few family friends to
come over that night, too.
Mr, S. R. - We have a few
relatives and friends who ex
pect to be asked over to our
new place. The grounds will
never be as beautiful as now,
full of June roses. It won't
poll Gloria's party If we com
bine It with a small house
warming celebration - in fact
the affair will be a sort of
coming-out" for her, a chance
to be the belle of the ball.
The Councili Gloria's right,
houscwarming tacked onto
16th-blrthday party wouldn't
stay tacked on past the first
hello's and the second round
of highballs. It would take
over, making Gloria as un
comfortable as that dog who
was wagged by his tall! Keep
it Gloria s party, Mr. R.-the
one she's envisioned (and
Dromlsed her friends), where
nobody must ' butter up any
grownups, where teen ta I k
may be rife, relaxed, and un
translated. Typical adult party
behavior can take much of the
sweetness out of Gloria s
sweet sixteen memories. . . .
Find another occasion, Mr. R.,
for making good on promises
to play host. The double over
head for separate shindigs
may hang neavy over your
calculations, but you'll wind
up wltn two gooa diowouu
instead of the two-ln-one blur
you propose. Remember,
Sweet Sixteen is Gloria's box
of candy and not your friends'
dish of tea.
