It Happened Last Night

By Earl Wilson

YELLOWSTONE, Aug. 14—Hang on, everybody—we've come to the place where Mother Nature blows her top, and we may get run over by a bear, but more likely by a tourist.

Old Faithful and her costars on this 60-mile-square stage will play this season“to their biggest audience yet—an estimated 1,280,000 travelhappy folks.

They'll bring in $1 million in auto entrance fees and concession-license money—Yellowstone's first “million-dollar gate.”

Americana By Robert C. Ruark

NEW YORK, Aug. 14—This being the 14th anniversary of my human bondage to the same dame, I am moved to write something nice about women for a change. Or was, let us say, until 1 spied the story out of New Orleans about the gent with the four simultaneous wives, and remembered back to the recent harrowing tale of the marrying salesman of queens, who also produced three of a kind. Bigamy is a thing I never have quite understood, unless you are an Arab and boss of the tent. The average American’s life is spent in quiet desperation, trying to duck the slings and arrows of one wom-| an, and how a guy will wilfully try to operate three dames at once escapes me.

THIS GAY blade in New Orleans had a time schedule for all three, and was doing fine until his dough ran out and he was forced to borrow. Moral: Never borrow money, especially {rom women, and most especially from wives, It creates deep suspicion, leading to certain disaster.

The American wife, due to her rulership of the nest, has become the time-hallowed symbol of stern domination, with papa playing either a punk’'s part, or that of a villain when he raises either hand or. voice. The American mama's coat-of-arms nas been a rolling pin rampant on a field of restrictions, with an intact pay check paid into a mailed fist. The American papa joins assorted lodges just as an excuse for sneaking out of the house once a week. .

YET, here we have a couple of men so bold as to take on the responsibilities of answering multiple sets of questions about what do you mean coming in, at this hour, you beast? Multiple questions about where you are going and where you have been. Multiple tasks of feeding, housing, clothing and entértaining the most expensive luxury yet created. The New Orleans boy, though, has been living a life of quadruple, daily dread, with four rolling pins poised over his skull—four separate houses to try to sneak out of. I do not. think he should be punished for his sins, but, more to the point, rewarded for his courage in the face of certain doom. $ oH A CERTAIN masochistic quality emerges here, 2 passion for pain.

NEW YORK, Aug. 14

-Patricia Stenz started out

running beauty salons for women, but the dames themselves made her switch from dolls to guys. “They kept bringing me their husbands and sweet-

hearts,” she said today at the

Savoy Plaza. “It happened so

much I asked myself, ‘Criminy, why don't I open a place for

fellows?

That's the reason, she said, for her hair and scalp clinics in Hollywood and Beverly Hills, for men only. “They're all strictly he-men too,” she insisted. “Some of them are actors, of course, but there are plenty of truek drivers, wrestlers and bartenders, too. Especially truck drivers. They feel inferior going around with their bald heads showing.”

AS FOR THE movie stars, Patricia was practically as mum as the Atomic Energy Commission. - “All I can say,” she whispered, “is that you'd be surprised.at some of the movie tough guys who come here.”

She said she could mention that Dick Powell and Jimmy Stewart are clients just because they are afraid they might lose their hair. At first, she related, the men come sheepishly, just as if they were trying to make a bet around the corner from a precinct station. They creep in stealthily, but once inside, it's “a different story.

CHURCHILL'S LITTLE ISLE—

Britain Is Worse Off Than

This Is the Last of 2 Articles By CHARLES E. HARGROVE

LONDON, Aug. 14—As if socialized England doesn’t have enough trouble with the growing specter of bankruptcy and a one-time hero named Winston Churchill whose glamor is wearing thin, she’s now stuck with trying

to unsocialize part of her socialization, “Good OI’ Winnie” himself, Prime Minister again after leading Britain to victory in World War II, is as ready as anybody ,to admit how tough the sailifg really is. “Lands and nations whom we defeated in war or rescued from subjection are today more solidly sure of earning their living than we are,” he intoned Jgecently in his famous style. One reference could well have been to Germany, with whom the British Parliament has since ratified preliminary World War II peace terms despite Laborite opposition. n n u

BRITISH TAXES, considerably higher than ours, are also higher than Germany's. Germany hasn't the national debt to pay off that England does. Germany produces much more food per capita than does England and German economy is now moving healthily into the black - with an excess of exports over imports of $59 million in June. That sort of thing hurts the British, who only 12 years ago thought they would have to repel an actual German invasion of the British homeland and then went on to fight five years in helping to defeat her. And unfortunately the Churchill

who led them then is no help now. Under the Labor government, which the Conservatives ousted 11 months ago, Britain nationalized her coal mines, nearly all her transportation system including railroads, canals, and trucking companies, and her steel industry. » n on

WHEN "THE Conservatives came back into power they promised some denationalizing. They haven't done it yet, but they're getting the paperwork started. The question now is whether they can stay in power long enough to do the job. Even if they do, a serious problem still -looms., The lLaborites have vowed to re-na-tionalize, when and if they get back into power, everything the Churchill government denationalizes. How long the weakened British economy could stand this sort of pulling and hauling is a question. But whatever the. Conservatives do ‘about de-nationalizing, it's generally conceded they won't touch Britain's socialized medicine program, so much maligned by conservatives in this country. n ” »

Drinking Linked To Spiritual Emptiness

Be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the spirit — Ephesians 5:18 »

By J. WALLACE HAMILTON

ALDOUS HUXLEY, the eminent skeptic, wrote an essay

entitled “Wanted, a New Pleas-

ure.” “As. far as I can see,” he said, “the only possible new pleasure would be derived from

the-invention—of -a“new-drug—

which would provide a harmless substitute for alcohol , . . If we could sniff or swallow something that would abolish inferiority, atone us with our, fellows in a glowing exultation of affection and make life in all its aspects seem not only worth living but divinely beautiful and’ gignificant, and if , . . we could wake up next morning with .a clear head and undamaged constitution, then it seems to me that all. our problems would be solved— and earth would be a paradise.” ou un "

It is no mere play on words that links sensual excitement and spiritual fulfilment together. There is a profound relation between the two.
