PROS OF PARIS
I have always admired the manner іп
which vLavuoy has handled subject mat-
ter which to some might be “delicate” or
“objectionable.” Alter having read The
Pros of Paris in the October issue, my
admiration of the high level of good taste
shown by your staff has increased ten
fold. In the hands of many another pub-
lication, the whole thing would have
become a cheap, vulgar exposé. You han-
dled it beautifully

“Those luscious beauties looked more
like Fifth Avenue models than pros!
Barry Major

Instead of being the glamorous, Тап-
guorous creature your beautiful color
photography tries to make of her, a pro:
fessional prostitute is the laziest, dirtiest,
most unimaginative female slob al
She will stop at nothing to make a few
dollars, nothing short of work, that is.
She is useless to society, in fact a menace
to health and morals.

of course there are the many show girls

appreciation lor The 51 Tones of Green

Your excellent magazine has brought
much enjoyment to my leisure hours
with its well-written articles, clever car
toons and absorbing fiction. Now, how-
ever, it brings the saddest sort of news
—Jack Cole is dead. Although 1 knew
him only as а name on a cartoon, 1 feel
as if I have lost a friend. His cartoons
did not make one laugh: they were so
true, so exactly expressive, that they
made one's insides light up in a great
giddy smile. He will be missed. Carry
on

PLAYBOY AFTER HOURS

JF you are given to scanning shipping

registers in your idle moments, you
may already have noticed, along with the
Queen Mary and the United States, the
following entry in the register put out
by Lloyds of London:

Yvonne Buckingham. A paddle ship
of bone construction. Length overall 5
It. 6 ins, Gross tonnage 9 stone, Fore
and Alt 38 and 36 ins, Girth 22 ins,
Date of launch Mar 28 1937."

Miss Buckingham, а starlet who has
already appeared іп three films, evi-
dently is somewhat hipped on the idea
of using insurance brokers as publicity
agents. In addition to the listing noted
above, she has managed to get herself
insured to become a Movie Star within
five years. If she doesn't, she collects
1000 pounds, The correspondent. who
put us on to Miss Buckingham assures
us that her chances are excellent, unless
her cargo should unaccountably shift
in the meantime.

A fellow we know has worked out a
new gimmick for gaining the apprecia
tion of his ladylriends. Each time he
makes an airplane flight, he takes out a
flock of those hall-a-buck insurance poli-
cies, makes a different girl the beneficiary
of each, and reaps the reward of his
tender thoughtfulness on
dates,

Jack Jarvis, night city editor of the
Seattle Post-Intelligencer, is also the
president of some of the most fascinat

country. Membership cards for same

increasing numbers. Included are: "So

“Roving Eye and Wandering Hand Asso

THEATRE

It doesn't rank with their finest efforts,
but Richard Rodgers and Oscar Ham-
merstein П, in Flower Drum Song, have
come up with a lively, good-looking, and
professionally expert entertainment.
Using C. Y. Lee's bestseller of the same
name, Hammerstein and Joseph Fields
fashioned а conventional plot that re
volves around the conflict between the
orthodox old and the brash young in San

Francisco's Chinatown. A boy (Ed Ke
ney) wants to marry a girl (Pat Suzuk
who із а stripper, and mistress of the
strip joint's owner (Larry Blyden). The
boys father (Keye Luke) and aunt
(Juanita Hall) want him to marry а
docile import from the Old Country
(Miyoshi Umeki). The manner in which
the situation is resolved is less valuable
lor its emotional impact than for the
opportunity it gives the writers to make
the best of two possible worlds. Gene
Kelly directs briskly, Carol Haney's
choreography is probably the best of the
year, the Oliver Smith sets and Irene
Sharalf costumes are opium dreamy, and
Rodgers’ score is as varied as a Chinese-
American dish should be. At the St.
James, 246 W. 44th, NYC.

Now — when the old-timers have sadly
agreed that, as Broadway entertainment,
the revue is extinct — Paris has set New
York on its collective сап-сап with ta
Plume de Ma Tante. This Gallic galaxy of
assorted comics. (who have been snarling
traffic in Paris and London for the past
five years) achieves its hilarious. eflects
through the universal language of panto
mime, with an occasional word or a
handful of lyrics thrown in here and
there to show how little they are needed.
Robert. Dhéry—the creator of the show
and its amiable directeur — is a working
comedian in his right. Colette
Brosset, his wife, proves to be a show
stopper just standing around in bra
and panties. As if they weren't enough,
there are four supporting zanies who
share equal laugh time. “The dominant
motif of the revue — and опе beauti-
fully played by these modest and ex-
tremely disarming players— is that
everything goes wrong on stage for them,
and there's nothing they can do about
it: the ecdysiast reaches her climax with

build of a gunner's mate, who matched
him drink for drink for two hours then
tried to set fire to his mustache. But they
were all obliging children at heart and
the night was passed in carnal convi

“Relax, you guys,” Bud said. “Now,

The more promising prospect was a

tall thin kid with glasses who spit the
gum out after two chews. The next
couple of candidates wouldn't even try
it. It began to look like a long, long day.
But then finally came this girl — the kind
of plain Jane who watches the movies at
a drive-in — and she practically went out
of her skull over Brand X. That broke
the spell. After her we began to hit at à

we'd have enough left to really clobber
Kane and his cronies.

A FIST FULL OF MONEY

“READ "EM AND WEEP," Smalley said, “four beauties
left to right." His big hands scooped the money
toward his plaid yest, and he grinned hatefully.
The grin hadn't seemed hateful to Irv Randall
when the poker game started. He had always ad-
mired Smalley's grin. He liked seeing it flash in the
corridor between their offices at Bryant and Com-
pany, liked to sec it when they met in the elevator
in the morning, and when Smalley said, "How's
married life, Irv, how's the little woman?" It was a
wide, attractive grin, illuminating the handsome
face, and Irv always figured that warmth and friend-
liness were behind it. It was only now, seeing it over
the top of а poker hand that meant the end of his
week's earnings, that Irv Randall knew Не despised

"The table around Irv's elbows looked

and tried to shrug it off.

"Easy come, easy go,” he said, with a
light laugh. “There's always another
payday.”

“Gee, Irv." Manny, from the shipping
department, stirred uncomfortably, "We
shouldn't have let the stakes get so high.

"So we got а little excited,” Smalley

"You want to quit?" Smalley said.

"No, I didn't say that. I mean, hell,
it's OK for us, we're all bachelors, But
Irv here, he's got a new bride at home."

Irv tried to fight the flush that was
tinting his cheek. "Don't worry, I got her
trained, Well, I better get home; it's
after 10..." He lifted his coat from the
only upholstered chair in Smalley's
apartment, and put it om carefully,
When he turned around to say good-
bye, he saw that the others were already

to the door.

"Give my regards to Francey,” Smal-
ley shouted.

"Yeah, sure, Frances. Good night, Irv.
See you in the morning.”

He didn't see the face, but he knew
Smalley was grinning. He thought of the
all the way down in the grimy cle-
vator and into the street, Then he
started thinking of Francey, and he grew
so cold inside the thin topcoat that was
brazening out the February freeze that
he shivered like a forlorn child.

How could he explain away а week's
pay? With a laugh? A snarl? "Listen,
honey, I dropped it and that's that...”
No, that wasn't Irv Randall, He could
see her face grow pale, the hurt in her
eyes, and he knew he couldn't go home

every nickel he brought home, walked
off her feet to save on food and hadn't

could he explain that his first night out

out with an innocent invitation to a
bowling match. ‘Then, somehow, they

was sharp. Francey would spot the easy
excuse; he'd make a fool of himself.
What he wanted, desperately wanted,
was her sympathy.

He stopped on the lonely dark street,
aware of its ominous silence, It was a
bad neighborhood, a rough neighbor-
hood...

That was id He would say he was
mugged, attacked, robbed. The streets
and alleyways were stalked by young
hoodlums; that kind of thing happened
every day. Why not to him?

Instead of turning at the next block
he continued on to the empty lot on the
next street, Across the way was a row of
new, identical one-family houses not yet
occupied. He cut into the lot, brushing
aside dying ragweed until he got to a
clearing. Here he ran his hands through
the hair pushing over his forchead. Rip-
ping at his collar and tie, he tore the
top button of his shirt loose. He bent
and dug his fingers into the hard earth.
He was 4weating despite the cold, afraid
of being seen, afraid that he might not
act out the farce with perfect сопуіс-
tion. With his hands full of dirt, he
rubbed them over his clothes and finally
on his face. He was ready.

In the lamplight on the corner, re-
flected by an empty store window, he
saw that his appearance would easily fool
Francey. His face stung, and he won-
dered if his fingers hadn't clawed red
welts on his skin, for in one wild mo-
ment he had actually tried for that much
reality.

There were only five dark streets be-
tween Smalley's apartment and his own.
He walked the rest of the distance hur-
riedly, and then slowed his pace in an
approximation of the fatigue he should
have felt after a hoodlum’s assault. He
was panting when he reached the house,
and he was half convinced that the mug-
was authentic when he turned the
doorknob of Apartment 3-B and stag-
gered inside,

He considered the alternatives. If he

But in the morning, he felt troubled.

All the way to the office, he kept think
ing of the kid. So what if he was a punk,
a half-grown hood? The money was his,
and Irv had conned him out of it as
slickly as if he had worked at that sort
of thing all his life. Maybe that cash had
been earmarked for rent, for doctor's
bills, for the kid's destitute family. And
more than that, he had labeled the boy
a criminal, even if there had been по
judge or jail sentence . . .
At his desk, the office boy left a con-
iner of coffee.

"Whats the matter, Mr. Randall?
Tough night?"
"Yeah," he said. “Lousy night."

His 1х box was thick with orders, but
he couldn't get to work. Somewhere in
the city, a kid was telling himself:
"What's the use of going straight? You
get the dirty end of the stick anyway

He knew he couldn't go through with
it. Not for a lousy week's pay. He picked
up the telephone and asked for an out-
side line, thinking of the words he
would say when the police lieutenant
came on the other end.

The phone buzzed in his ear, and ће
saw. Smalley going down the corridor to
his desk. There was no grin on Smalley's
face this morning, but there was a white
patch of plaster on his right cheek.
When Smalley paused in the doorway,
Irv held onto the phone and said:
"What the hell happened to you?"

Smalley grimaced. "What a night. We
broke up after you left, and 1 went out
to get the papers. Some lousy kid jumped
me"

Irv's eyes widened. “No kidding!”

“Yeah, how do you like that? Took
every nickel I had, the dirty punk.”
Did you report him?”

“Ah, what's the ше? You can't tell one
hoodlum from the next in this lousy

Шу Randall relaxed into the swivel
chair, and grinned.

"Gee, I'd like to help you, pal. But

“BRIGITTE BARDOT is the dream woman
of all middle-aged married теп." When
I read this, an advertisement of her
latest cinema striptease, 1 fell into deep
thought, Sometimes I fall into shallow
thought, but this time I went all the way
down and have not been able to surface
for several weeks.

One thing 1 thought about was the
absurdity of saying that Brigitte Bardot
is the dream woman of all middle-aged
married men. What is absurd is not the
all, unless there is some middle-aged
married шап on an island somewhere
who has never heard of Brigitte Bardot
and therefore could hardly be expected
to dream about her. No, what is absurd
is that the writer of the advertisement
did not include rosy-cheeked young men
and wrinkle-cheeked old men, along
with those simply checky, not to say
peachy, middle-aged men.

And what about unmarried men of
all ages? Is there any reason to suppose
that bachelors have anything better to
dream about than Brigitte Bardot?

The advertising man was all right as
far as he went, but he didn't go far
enough. He excluded millions of deserv-
ing males and should have his knuckles
rapped, in rapid succession, by Batten,
Barton, Durstine and Osborn, followed
by Young and Rubicam and Benton a

АП my life, regardless of my age, not
to mention my marital status, which 1
wouldn't mention for the world, 1 have
dreamed about the current love goddess.
At the moment, of course, it is Brigitte
Bardot. Before Brigitte caine along, I had
some wonderful dreams about Rita Hay-
worth, Ingrid Bergman, Grace Kelly,

Marilyn Monroe, Jayne Mansfield,
Sophia Loren, Mamie Van Doren, and
even, after a dinner that included a crab-
meat cocktail that had been left out in

During a short nap one afternoon 1
six separate and distinct dreams, all of
them involving Ava Gardner, and was
happily starting а seventh when the un:
expected arrival of Frank Sinatra turned
my dream into a nightmare and 1 awoke
in а cold sweat.

Rita Hayworth, 1 remember, always
wore the black lace nightgown that fitted
her so tightly that her lungs were con-
stricted and she had to breathe in short
pants, which were also black and tight
fitting. As for Ingrid, she was forever
mumbling in her sleep, sometimes in
Swedish and sometimes in Italian. Night
alter night L would lean over, all ears
(or almost), with a Swedish-English dic
tionary йз one hand and an Italian-Eng:
lish dictionary in the other, hoping to
pick up some juicy morsel about her
love life that was unknown to Hedda
Hopper.

Grace Kelly E dreamed about both be
fore and after her marriage to Prince
Rainier, and | hope the Prince never
hears of this. 1 also hope he never learns
of the dream in which 1 broke the bank
at Monaco, by kicking my foot through
the wall. Then, before escaping with a

[ter another over the Cliff into the
sea, until I had destroyed all 25. On the
whole, the Prince has been very decent
about keeping out of my dreams of
Grace, but I cannot say the same for
Cary Grant, who is always sticking his
dimpled chin into things. When Grace

Grand Corniche, on our way to the little
love next we have rented, Cary is sure
to draw alongside in a fancy sports car,
with a fancy sport scarf around his neck,
and ask my gorgeous girlfriend if she
would like a ride. Invariably she says
yes, and 1 wake up, mad ay hell.

My dreams about Marilyn Monroc,
Jayne Mansfield and Mamie Van Doren
are oddly confused, Even when 1 am
wide awake, I have trouble telling which
is which. In the dream world they are
just so many voluptuous blondes, and
frequently 1 haye stirted out a dream
with Marilyn and wound up with Mamie

ter how beautiful the other girl is. Of
course Marilyn has that Није mole or
beauty spot or whatever it is on one
check, but when she turns the other
cheek, I'm lost. Sometimes 1 don't find
myself for hours.

With reference to Sophia Loren, my

dreams of her have been quite satisfac-
tory. Her full lower lip fascinates me,
and one of these nights I am going to
find out what it is full of. 1 also like
the way she can wear an offtheshoulder
peasant blouse, which she is always hitch-
ing up just in time, the way you bitch
up a horse that is about to run off down
the street. She is a great one for plung:
ing necklines, and in my dreams of her
I have that horrible sensation of fall-
ing + . , falling, Only with Sophia it
isn't so horrible, unless 1 wake up.
Some of my dreams, e
started dreaming of Brigitt
so realistic that I am still not quite sure
whether they were dreams or the real
thing. Т would be terribly embarrassed
if 1 met Yvonne de Carlo on the street,
not knowing whether to speak or not.
Was that only a dream, or did we really
spend a week together in Rio? On the
other hand, 1 have had dreams so fan-
tastic that they could have been nothing

more than wild ations
from my subconscious. Such a dream, 1
recall. was the one wl

bor sisters and Mrs, Gabor,
incredible affair which makes no sense
now that I try to reconstruct in the
harsh light of day. Insofar as Lam able
to control my dreams, 1 try to give my
nocturnal attention to beautiful women
who have no sisters and, so far as 1 am
aware, no mothers. Whether they have
husbands is of no concern to me, since
they seem to be of no concern to them.

But lately 1 һауе been dreaming ех
clusively of Brigitte Bardot. Indeed 1
am so impatient for the next episode
that I now go to bed as early as 8:30 or
nine o'clock, missing some of my favorite
TV programs. Friends have to tell me
how things are going on What's My
Line? and the Jack Paar show. At
dinner parties I excuse myself right
after dessert, saying I have an appoint
ment, which in a sense I do. Sometimes
I pass up dessert, and. those who think
this strange do not realize that my little
French pastry is awaiting me.

My dreams of Brigitte alw: follow
something of the same pattern, We are

could remember which French words
are masculine and which are feminine,
though 1 have no such trouble with
French people. Anyhow, with our lips
pressed tightly together, it is very hard
to say anything intelligible or even to
pronounce the French “г” correctly.

Brigitte and 1 seldom go out, except
to pick up bread and cheese and wine
at the nearest épicerie. Sometimes we
vary our diet by picking up wine and
cheese and bread, but since everything

tastes like nectar and ambrosia when we
are together, it makes little difference.
It is lucky for us both, however, that we
are so fond of nectar and that
this diet never becomes:

where appctites are unbridled. For fish
fanciers there are German blue trout in
cans, smoked eel, as well as herring in
lemon or wine sauce. If the German
Westphalian ham isn't available in your
neck of the woods, there are some ex-
tremely good Holland or domestic ver-
sions of Westphalianstyle hams. Cer-
tainly one of the fastest and smartest

sortment of Braunschweiger liverwurst
(the most luxurious of all liverwurst
sausages), Cervelat (a nongarlic salami),
Mettwurst (a soft smoked pork spread),
or headcheese (a gelatin loaf made from
corned pork), all of which bear an hon-
orable German ancestry. As a relish for
such platters, it would be hard to sug-
gest anything more cordial than the iin-
ported Senfgurken, light pickles packed
in vinegar with mustard secd.

In the fresh Wurst department, none
can excel the Germans. If you live near
a German neighborhood or if you have
access to a German butcher who makes
his own sausage, try to get the Bock-
wurst during the bock beer season or
the Bratwurst made of either pork or
veal. Both sausages should be parboiled
for a few minutes and then broiled or
charcoal broiled until brown.

The German word gemütlich can't be
translated easily into a single English
word. It means hospitable, homey,

genial, hearty, generous and easygoing
all rolled into one. When you're plan-
ning a German meal, keep in mind that
to be gemütlich, you must always offer

umbilical contemplation reveals the inner man

Individualistic

satire By ARNOLD ROTH

AMONG THE ANCIENT mysteries of Zen
which today's beat Buddhists are redis-
covering is the contemplation of one’s
navel. But even the beatest of the beat
have not yet formulated the precise na-
ture of the enlightenment which is
deemed to ensue on this downward
dwelling.

Artist Arnold Roth suggests that the
secret lies not in the navel itself but in
the way the contemplator contemplates,
that the physical approach to the navel
reveals the true inner self of the ap-
proacher. At any rate, whether the an-
swer is psychological or physiological,
approaching a Roth cartoon, like virtue,
is its own reward.

Lincoln wrote a letter to the republic on
May 7, 1861, thanking it for an hono
itizenship and saying that San Marino
has by its experience demonstrated the
truth, so full of encouragement to the
friends of Humanity, that Government
founded on Republican principles is
capable of being so administered as to
be secure and enduring.” F.D.R. wrote a
letter on January 17, 1945, saying t
truer words than Lincoln's we
spoken. Napoleon discovered San Ma-
rino on a map in 1796, and is said
to have said, “Ma foi! Let us preserve
it as the model of a republic"; he did.

VACATION VALENTINE

A lovely-visaged valentine to brighten the short drear days of the year's shortest month,
Eleanor Bradley became our February Playmate almost by accident — or was it fate? A small-
town girl from the Midwest, she'd looked forward with excitement to her first West Coast
vacation, to the wonderful time she'd have in sun and surf. And fun she had; but what Eleanor
didn't anticipate — and what proved to be the high point of her vacation — was that our
photographer would discover her strolling the glistening strand, and that this would lead to
her becoming our valentine Playmate. We believe our readers will share our feeling — after
gazing on her tawny beauty — that fate was kind indeed to bring us this sweet siren by the sea.

(Women and children were out; as they
were in Athens.) This body, the Arringo,
still is meeting twice a year, and it’s why
San Marino can be called the only real
democracy on carth, To be sure, nothing
much happens in the Arringo these
days; 20 or 30 men show up, petitioning
it, and absentees are supposed to be
fined one six-hundredth of an American
cent, but never are. It's all over іп 30
minutes. Actually, most of San Marino's
laws are made by the Great and Gen-
eral Council, 60 men. The Great and
General Council, їп turn, elects two
people in it as captains regent, kind of
bicameral chiefs like the
Roman consuls, (Until 1945, the cap-
tains regent were chosen by lot—a
child, usually blind, pulled their names
from an urn — but the Communists de-
cided this mode of selection was alto-
gether too chancy.) The two men gov-
ern San Marino jointly for half а year,
and can't be re-elected,

While 1 was in San Marino, two са
tains regent, Signori Augusto Maiani
and Primo Bugli, a Communist and а
left-wing Socialist, respectively, were
inaugurated, and the inaugural was scen
by something more than a hundred
tourists, including me. The tourists were
Italians and Germans, mostly; they be-
gan appearing in San Marino in force
on the night before, and the shops kept
open, selling them postage
vases. Black cars from Rome with diplo-
matic license plates were all about, and
excitement in the air. Besides me,
there was one other American there, а
good-looking girl in a red cashmere
sweater who said she was employed at
our consulate in Florence, Italy, and
that her name was Patricia, Later, as
Patri and 1 had a beer together at

round of beer, and a Belgian standing
at the bar taught Patricia to curtsy —
something, she said, she would doubtless
be called upon to execute on the morrow.

The next day was crisp and a little
overcast. After breakfast, 1 strolled to
the cobbled piazza in front of the pal-
ace, where, I had understood, the day's

activities would be centered, and wherc
a small, determined knot of tourists

their exposure meters and waiting for
something to happen. Nothing did until
9:15, when we heard the sound of
drums, horns and glockenspiels far

nly a band came into the piazza, the
men trying not to look at their friends

And lastly there came a columm of
swordsmen, in flashy orange. A bouquet
of white and powder-blue feathers was
flouncing on cach of their heads,
apparently growing directly out of it,
and the tourists hurried over to get a
picture, At 10 o'clock sharp, the bells,
in thcir own mysterious fashion, gave

went down the hill, and everything

were getting impatient, and were taking
pictures of each other and writing post-

The band marched up again at 11
o'clock. (It spent the greater part of the
going up and down, 1 observed.)
This time, a columuby-two. of digni-
taries was coming after it, some of them
in striped pants and cutaways, and one
of them in all this and a W-shaped

there, in black robes and floppy black
hats trimmed with ermine, and im-

it went on the air at a prime evening

by the reviewers’ raves. (The editors of

sical achievement was the presentation
of the specially assembled. Newport. In-
ternational Band. Directed by Marshall
Brown (who, along with festival producer
Gcorge Wein, scoured Europe on a jazz
talent hunt), it offered the most start-

ing the year,

tially sponsored by

that were perhaps the most memorable
of the whole trip. The entire tour, par-
ticularly the behind-the-Iron-Curtain
portion, was а touching tribute to how

much jazz means overseas as a symbol
of [reedom.

At home, despite the mild climate of
confusion incurred by the start of the
switchover to stereo, monaural LPs en-
joyed incredibly high sales, many of
them reaching six-figure totals, The
most remarkable individual item was
Benny Goodman Plays World Favorites
in High Fidelity, sold through West
inghouse dealers at a special premium
price of $1.29 and believed to be well
past the quarter-million mark by year's
end. ‘There is so much phony publi

10 top-selling instrumental jazz LPs sold
through the more usual record outlets
would be Shelly Manne's My Fair Lady,
held over from 1957 for a second highly
successful annum; Jonah Jones’ Swingin’
on Broadway, marking the sudden leap
to popularity of a swingera trumpet
player who for years had been virtually
forgotten by the jazz fans; Count. Basic's
Basie, his first album for the fastrising

by the Sea; Miles Davis’ Relaxin’ and
Miles Ahead; André Previn and His
Pals (actually the Shelly Manne trio
turned around) in Pal Joey; Ahmad
Jamal's But Not for Me, a surprise hit
by à Chicago pianist on a Chicago label,
Argo: Jonah Jones Muted Jazz; and the
Modern Jazz Quartét playing the score
from а movie, No Sun in Venice (Sait-
On-Jamais).

At year's end, rıaysoy presented
second volume of The Playboy Jazz All-
Stars, produced through the cooper
tion of the entire recording industry,
and featuring the winners of the second
al Jazz Poll in 22 different sel
tions, on two 12" LPs, with 10 pag:
liner notes, pictures and up-to-date dis-
cographies on the artists.

One aspect of the 1958 scene that we
hope may be significant was the renewed
interest in big bands. Despite the un-
happy demise of the Gillespie orchestra
at the beginning of the year, there were
healthy signs in the retention. of large
personnels, and record sales to match,
оп the part of Duke Count
Basic, Stan Kenton, Maynard Ferguson,
Heth Pomeroy, Ted Heath, Johnny
Richards and several others. Despite the
death of Tommy Dorsey in 1956 and
Jimmy in 1957, there were two success-
ful posthumous Dorsey bands on the
market, Jimmy's led by trumpeter Lee
Castle and Tommy's by trombonist War-
ren Covington; the latter had a big hit
in the pop field this past fall with Tea
Jor Two Cha-Cha. Duke Ellington en-
joyed a particularly impressive increase
in activity and popularity, appearing at
most of the jazz festivals and spending

fabulous October touring Engl;
with his band for the first time in
years.

ОГ the individual stars who made it
big in 1958, one instrumentalist, one
singer and one vocal group stand out.
The instrumentalist is tenor sax тап
Sonny Rollins, who received rave com-
ent from us here а year ago, and who
ay since become the most talked-about
jazz soloist around. Dakota Staton has
become as hot in the vocal field this
ам. year as Rollins is among the horns
brash, Dinah Washington-cum-Sarah
Vaughan-derived belter, she is (among
other things) the first Mohammedan
singer to ever make it big in jaz. Her
sudden rise in popularity is largely due
to the spectacular sales of a single LP,
The Late, Late Show on Capitol. And
by October, an exciting sound that had
previously existed only on records be-
came a living reality, as Dave Lambert,
Jon Hendricks and Annie Ross, inter-
preters of the vocalese style that trans-
lated whole big band arrangements and
ad lib instrumental solos into lyrics (on
the LPs Sing a Song of Basie and Sing
Along with Basie), showed unmistakable
signs of developing into one of the most
important new vocal groups іп years.

The jazz world lamented the loss of
several of its number during the year:
West Coast pianists Carl Perkins and
Lorraine Geller, clarinetist Herbie
Fields, veteran trumpeter Sterling Bose,
65-year-old bluessinging guitarist Big
Bill Broonzy, and 84-year-old blues pio-
neer W. C. Handy. lt was perhaps
merciful that Handy died before he
could see what a pitifully botched trav-
esty Hollywood had made of the filmed
version of his life as released a few
wecks after his passing. This hopeless.
ly distorted story, fortunately, did not
represent the totality of the filmed jazz
scene for the year, Miles Davis contrib-
uted the sound track for a French film
and a Parisian jazz critic flew to New
York to record the Jimmy Giuffre 3
for the sound track of another French
production, Meanwhile, Hollywood
again used a jazz background as an ad.
ішпес for a picture about narcotics, pros-
titution, murder, etc., in Z Want to Live!,
which employed a splendid musical
score by Johnny Mandel and small com-
bo work by Gerry Mulligan, Shelly
Manne, et al.

If all this suggests that France digs
jazz on the esthetic level more than the
U.S., the point may be well taken. Cer-
tainly the Parisians played host to a
whole colony of jazzmen throughout the
year, as such stars as Sarah Vaughan,
Quincy Jones and Zoot Sims were re-
united there for special record dates,
while Donald Byrd, J. J. Johnson, Kai
Winding and dozens more played Gallic
concert and nightclub gigs. Erroll

PLAYBOY ALL-STARS (continued from page 54)

Garner, a particular favorite of the
French, was honored early in the year
with the Grand Prix du Disque.

Despite the new developments іп те-
cording techniques and overseas tours,
PLAYBOY'S readers made it clear that as
far as they аге concerned, stereo discs
do not а jazzman make, nor foreign
safaris а band. Readers again proved
their high fidelity in selecting their
favorite jazz performers for the 1959
Playboy All-Star Jazz Band. But if many
of the same great stars won the hand-
some sterling silver Playboy Juzz Medals
for the third year in succession, there
were also a number of interesting
changes in the ranking of popularity in
many of the categories.

"Тһе voting for a leader for this 1959
dream aggregation again showed the
strength of Stan the Man, as readers
handed over the baton to Kenton for
the third year in a row, despite the fact
that he cut down considerably on his
touring and spent very little time in the
East. The Duke and Count, as expected,
remained to place and show as they did
a year ago.

Perhaps because he helped sell so
many Timex watches on TV, old Satch-
mo regained the first-place chair in the
trumpet section that he had yielded to
Chet Baker in '58, and Chet settled for
the second seat. Miles Davis, who placed
eighth in '57 and fifth in "58, won third
place this year and a chair in the four-
man trumpet section. Shorty Rogers
dropped out of the top four, a mere
hornful of votes behind John Birks Gil-
lespie.

"The new stars in brass were again

unable to roll those 'bones out of their
last-held spots: J. J. Johnson and Kai
Winding. who were reunited for a tour
of England and the ent in the
fall, held on to their win and place
positions; Bobby Brookmeyer and Jack
garden again rounded out the four-
m trombone section.
о sax section provided one of
the big surprises of this ycars poll.
Though Paul Desmond again took first
place with comparative ease, rhythin-
and-blues man Bostic, who placed
17th а year ago, nudged out Bud Shank
for second place. Stan Getz won the
first seat on tenor with no difficulty, but
the tug of war between Coleman Hawk-
ins and Charlie Ventura for the second
chair was again a close one, with the
Hawk taking it a second year in a row,
Sonny Rollins, who has caused such а
stir in jazz circles the рам two years,
jumped from 10th to fourth position.
Gerry Mulligan again took the single
baritone seat with no strain, receiving
over half the total number of votes cast
in the category.

Benny Goodman, quite active this
year with big band forays to Brussels
and Newport as well as his own TV
spectacular, simply held on to his clari-
net spot with the Playboy All-Stars.
ing Benny by some distance were
my Сішіге, who moved up from
third to second place, and Buddy De-
Franco, whose year-long California im-
mobilization apparently cost him some
votes (he ran second in both previous
polis).

The balloting for piano honors showed
Erroll Garner's growing popularity. Er-
roll. who received only half as many
votes us Dave Brubeck in '57 and won
out over Dave by a mere 13 votes last
year, took his winning place at the key-
board more firmly this time, with Dave
again second and André Previn, bol-
stered by his style-setting show-tune al-
bums, moving up from fourth to third,
changing places wtih George Shearing.
Ahmad Jamal, who a year ago was no
place to be seen, jumped into eighth
position, just behind Count Basie.

Barney Kessel again made it a run-
away sixstringed victory on guitar, fol-
lowed by Eddie Condon, Les Paul, John-
ny Smith and Herb Ellis. Ray Brown
won his third consecutive silver Jazz
Medal with a wider margin over second
place Oscar Pettiford in the bass divi-
sion than he has enjoyed heretofore;
Leroy Vinnegar remained in third place,
Norman Bates moved up from sixth to
fourth and Red Mitchell from IIth to
fifth. Shelly Manne again beat out an
easy victory on the followed by
Gene Krupa, Согу Cole who jumped
up from Ith place to third position,
Chico Hamilton, Buddy Rich and Max
Roach.

At the Monterey. Jazz Festival, come-
dian Mort Sahl nominated John Foster
Dulles and his "Panic Button" for the
Miscellaneous Instrument category of
the Playboy Jazz Poll and one hip reader
voted for Schroeder and his toy piano
from the comic strip Peanuts, but the
victory went to Lionel Hampton on
bes for a third consecutive year, fol-
lowed again by Milt Jackson and Cal
‘Tjader; Herbie Mann on flute moved
up from seventh to fourth place and
andido, on bongos, who had not placed
the running а year ago, took fifth
place.

No question about the favorite male
and female vocalists readers wanted for
their 1959 Playboy All-Star Jazz Band—
Frank Sinatra and Ella Fitzgerald held
securely to those positions for a third
year in a row. Johnny Mathis continued
to climb in popularity in the male singer
division: in '57 he was nominated, but
didn't receive enough votes to place in
the listing; in '58 he had become the
hottest new singer on the scene and took

fourth place; this year he nudged Nat
“King” Cole out of second position. Joe
Williams jumped in popula 100,
doubtless aided considerably his
smash Roulette LP, А Man Ain't Sup-
posed to Gry, moving from eighth place
to fourth, Sammy Davis, Jr. took a sur-
prising drop from third to seventh place
and Frank D'Rone, a hot young talent
virtually unknown outside the Midwest,
managed to amass enough votes to put
him in 18th place, just before P
Como. The female vocalists supp
ап even more remarkable overnight suc-
cess story as two warblers unknown а
year ago wound up among the top half
dozen: Dakota Staton took fourth place
and Keely Smith sixth. June Christy
4 Chris Connor retained their place
and show positions just behind Ella, and
Julie London took the fifth.

The Dave Brubeck Quartet still
proved to be the most popular instru:
mental combo in the land, followed by
the Modern Jazz Quartet. The George
Shearing Quintet replaced Louis Arm-
strong's All-Stars in third position, with
Satchmo dropping to fourth, and the
Dukes of Dixieland jumped from 11th
to fifth place. The Four Freshmen
walked off with group vocal honors
again, followed by the Hi-Lo's, with the
other singing groups well off the pace.

An added attraction in this year's poll
is the inclusion of the All-Stars’ own
favorite jazz musicians of the year, on
pages 52 and 53. Having had previous
experience with this sort of thing when
polling 100 jazzmen for the Encyclope-
dia Yearbook of Jazz, it was not surpris-
ing to find a considerable schism be-
tween the musicians’ and the readers’
choices in many categories, and a com-
parison of the winners in both divisions
is most interesting. All the members of
the 1959 Playboy All-Star Jazz Band
selected by the readers, and the All-Stars’
All-Stars selected by the musicians them-
selves, will be awarded the sterling silver
Playboy Jazz Medals and be featured in
the magazine's third jazz album.

attire BLAKE RUTHERFORD

THERE ARE A WHOLE HOST of ways to make like a host, whether you're entertaining a
single dark-haired, sloe-eyed lovely, throwing a formal dinner party for six or
supervising a giant cocktail fest. In each case, you'll naturally want the correct
accoutrements: plenty of ice, sparkling glassware, tempting foodstuffs and an ample
supply of booze to help create an atmosphere of conviviality. And as host, you'll
want to don duds that set you off without ostentation.

Scene: you and your date have just escaped from a large, dull party and your

Let's go to my place” has been accepted. After you've mixed the first nightcap
it's a good idea to crawl out of that suit jacket you've been wearing all night and slip
into something more comfortable, like they say; make it a red velvet host coat, and
see if it doesn’t brighten up your prospects as the wee small hours come on

For something larger than an @ deux evening, we feel that as long as there is a

reason for giving a party, there is every
reason for dressing for it. Few occasions
аге more special than a black-tie dinner
party: first of all, it sets your particular
soiree apart from the ordinary. You and
your guests know it isn’t just another
party — it’s an occasion, topped off by an
elegant repast and framed by candles,
flowers, conversation and cognac,

The dinner party in town still calls
for black. (Color does have its place
at the resorts, on board ship, at country-
club affairs and around the pool, But in
town, black tie still means just that.
Ties and cummerbunds that are rainbow
radiant must be carefully chosen; they
haye a tendency to dominate not only
you but the entire evening as well.)

Even though the formal dinner or
supper party requires black, you as host
don't have to look like all the other

penguins, In the choice of your dinner
jacket, there are variations in collars,
vents, lapels and cuffs, and departures in
facings ranging from grosgrain or satin
to braid. And don't forget the different
silhouettes that are available: from the
natural look distinguished by no shoul-
der padding, narrow lapels and trousers,
and a three-button jacket, to the con-
tinental outline with its shorter jacket,
tapered trousers and angled pockets.
And there's a surprisingly wide choice
of fabrics, too. Within the bounds of
te, and depending upon your
you can range from plain
worsted to black cashmere, from coml
nations of silk and worsted to mohair,
from silk, faille and light wool tropicals
to Dacron combined with wool For
pure luxury, we like the elegance of a
host's dinner jacket of black silk em-

broidery on black velvet, like the one
shown at left.

While it's true that as host at a formal
dinner party it's right and proper that
you distinguish yourself from the rest
of your guests, do so only in your choice
of jacket, The balance of your outfit
should follow the classic traditions of
formality: slim, cuffless trousers with the
satin stripe down the side, white shirt
with waffle or pleated front (ruffles have
never appealed to us) and French cuffs,
of course. Black silk hose are de rigueur,
as are black oxfords or pumps іп calf
or patent leather.

Just as formal attire makes something
special out of your dinner party, and a
bright host coat announces to your single
guest that you are equipped to offer her
anything her little heart desires, so a
smoking jacket when you're home alone
can make you feel that you are im-
portant to yourself. It's good balm for
the inner man. The ones we like have
deep pockets to accommodate tobacco
pouch or cigarette pack if you're a rest-
less wanderer from room to room. Con
structed and tailored with a looseness
that allows comfort and freedom of
movement, the smoking jacket is per-
fect for those nights when you feel like
nothing more than wrapping your paw
around a glass of Scotch and getting to
that book you've been wanting to read.

For the biggest blast of all, the large
cocktail party, you once again have re-
course to the red velvet (or another
brightly hued) host coat. Naturally, with
such colorful plumage as this you'll
want to tone down the rest of your out-
fit. We suggest a pair of dark slacks,
slim cut, pleatless, either with or with-
out cuffs, Keep your shoes on the dark
side, too, and why not try one of the
newer lightweight, squaretoe oxlords
in black, or a sensible slip-on in a Scotch-
graim black or very dark brown. Your
shirt, as for all your afterfive enter-
taining, will be white, and you may
take your choice of the many accepted.
collar styles: buttondown, English tab,
semi-spread or a round collar that uses
a pin. Your tie should also be dark; the
brighter the coat, the darker the tie
and either no pattern or a very minute
and subdued one. Another, dressier,
choice is a white shirt with straight
points and а black dress bow tie. Your
position as host is immediately made
clear, and all and sundry know at once
to whom they should be grateful for the
smashing success of the party. This also
makes it easy for you to make it easy:
there are always those young ladies who,
after several hours of downing martinis,
love to say goodbye to their host with
what they rationalize as a dutiful kiss
and a warm embrace. You should make
it as simple as possible for them to

find you.

“Like take me to your leader.”

an amorist’s guide to the habitats and habits of the fairest game of all

ROMANTIC MEANDERING among пай
glories — аз they flourish on the urb
scene — is a proper pursuit for the frisky
fellow who wants to do his share to make
the world go round. But like anything
worth doing well, whether it's the tam-
ing of shrews or the happier occupation
of stalking delicate prey, there are cer-
tain perils involved. Luckily, these are
not too hard to avoid and may be quickly
charted as a ready guide to the amorous
huntsman. In general, the fairer the
game, the more alert you must be. The
gambit is to win over the wild creature

without yourself being won. Мапу the
unwary chap who has complimented
himself on his skill at attaining his ends,
only to discover, too late, that the hunter
was the hunted, that he had set his snares
so cunningly that it was he who was en-
snared. This is not necessary; the ancient
rules of the chase may be applied with
equal effectiveness to today’s quarry.

First, then, we must curb our impa-
tience while we learn something of the
species we'll pursue, Superficially, they
are much alike. But the various sub-
species differ sufficiently from one

other so that it is all too easy to be on
guard against the wiles of one, while leav-
ing oneself exposed to the deceptively
gentle-sceming blandishments of another.
The way to escape this error is to study
each specimen іп its lair, in its natural
habitat. For with this knowledge as a
guide, the superficial similarities will
vanish and the differences among the
subspecies — those differences celebrated
with a joyful Vive! —will become appar-
ent. Forewarned is forearmed: study the
specimens here displayed in the Ізі
where they lurk—and good hunting!

GIRLS IN THEIR LAIRS

THE BOHEMIAN flourishes wherever artists—and the merely arty—forgather. Her lair
is equipped with evidences of her supposed major interests, all ingeniously dis-
played—as are her charms on those occasions when she’s moved to responsiveness
by hearing beat poetry read to cool jazz. Artfully approached via talk of Zen and
art films, she's apt to do more than half the job of conquest herself. But beware:
beneath her pose of free spirit may lurk a longing to share on a permanent basis.

his pipe and slippers, the aroma of home cook-
ing drifting from her cozy kitchen, the neat
apartment as appealing оз a doll house or a
vine-covered cottage, her demure demeanor
suggesting that the veriest dolt might easily take
advantage of her natural affectionateness. But
the man on whom this girl has lavished her
attentions may be in grectest peril when he's
feeling pampered, smug, safe and self-satisfied.

THE RICH GIRL has been the nemesis of many an otherwise successful rover because
such time-worn avenues of approach as flowers, scent and lavish gifts are closed by
her ability to buy whatever she wants. Whether her loot is legacy, alimony, or the
gift of an admirer, the knowing huntsman won't let it come between them. On the
contrary: since she's blasé about commanding—and getting—service, he'll shock her
into rapt attention by instructing her in the surprising joys to be won by serving
his every wish and whim. He'll also teach her the fun of buying him goodies—
and what's more he'll do all this for love. What he won't do is let her buy him.

MY FRIEND FRANÇOIS is the most accom-
plished philanderer I know. He has
wavy brown hair, fair skin, and the most

nocent blue eyes in the world, Women
find him irresistible.

Last year he became a habitué of the
Café des Deux Boules where he played
cards frequently with a Monsieur Ri-
champoil, a wealthy industrialist.

Monsieur Richampoil spoke often of
the small factory he had on the outskirts
of Paris and invited Frangois to visit
him there. One afternoon, having noth
ing better to do, the young man made
a call.

He was taken immediately to the
main office where he found his friend
talking to a handsome young woman
who was built generously and had an
expression in her eyes that François, а
connoisseur of such things, recognized
at once as a sign of strong physical
appeti

“This is my wife," said Monsicur
Richampoil smiling. As Frangois kissed
her hand he wondered how the bald,
stoop-shouldered, older man could be
right for a young woman of vigorous
temperament,

Monsieur Richampoil excused him-
self. “My dear Frangois, permit me to
leave you with my wife for a few min-
utes while I see one of the foremen
downstairs.” And he disappeared.

Frangois didn't waste a moment. He
threw himself on one knee and grabbed
her hand which he covered with kisses.
“Madame, I can see that my friend is
not the husband you need. Your heart
is longing for a tender friendship. Well,
Madame, allow me to offer you my hand
to lead you along the road to happi-
ness,"

This speech was interrupted by the
sound of the husband coming up the
steps.

"Get up. Monsieur, what if he finds
you on your knec?"

"When сап I sec you?"

"Come to dinner at our house to-
morrow at five, I'll talk to you then.”
François got up and was sitting calmly
in his chair when Monsieur Richampoil
came in.
The

next day, precisely at five,

François presented himself at a charm-
ing villa in the suburbs. He rang the
bell, and a pretty servant opened the
door.

"Madame Richampoil is expecting
you in the salon on your right. I'll go
to the garden to tell Monsieur that you
have arrived,”

He found the beautiful lady lying on
a sofa.

“You have arrived just as my husband
has left for the garden," she murmured
holding out her hand.

He closed the door and went to the
sofa. After one intense kiss, she blushed
and got up immediately.

“It would be prudent to go find my
husband.”

“With you, I would go to the end of
the world.”

“They looked everywhere in the gar-
den, but could not find Monsieur Ri-
champoil. Down in the corner there was
а grove of trees.

“Let's see if he is there,” suggested
Frangois.

They walked slowly through the small
woods until they came to a bench. On
the way they heard a rustling sound in
the bushes but saw nothing. As they sat
there, the beauty of the spot had a
sudden effect оп them, and they fell
into each other's arms. He pulled her
into his lap and caressed her boldly.

Suddenly she pulled away and stood
up. He raised his head just in time to
sec Monsieur Richampoil 10 paces away.
He was walking quickly in the direction
of the house.

“I think he saw us," she stammered,

They found him in the salon. There
was a somber look on his face, and he
frowned as they came

"Well..." he said, pronouncing his
words very distinctly, “how did you find
the garden?”

"It is charming. We went everywhere

“Useless, my friend. I could find my
way there blindfolded.”

“No, E will take you. Moreover, I
have a matter I want to discuss with
you on the way."

François became pale. They all got
up, and as the two men were putting
on their coats, Monsicur Richampoil
reached into a drawer and pulled out
a revolver.

Suddenly François felt weak. “Perhaps
it would be better if I spent the night.”

"Humph," sneered Richampoil, “not
afraid of the dark, are you?”

“No.”

“Well, let's go.”

The two men walked silently away
from the house, Then the older man
stopped. “François, we have been friends

François’ hair began to stand on end.

drives. You know, you don't have to lay
on it, just zing it in there, then jump to
the Philistines or something." "

In a single performance, comedian
Lenny Bruce may find humor in such
sacred and profane subjects as religion,
homosexuality, funeral homes, race rela-
tions, dope addiction and matricide
(“John Graham Green is a guy who
blew up a plane with 40 people and his
mother,” Bruce reports, “and for this
the state sent him to the gas chamber,
Proving that the American people have
lost their sense of humor, After all, any-
body who blows up а plane with 40 peo-
ple and his mother can't be all bad.").
The Bruce repertoire of "sick" mono-
logs, gags, dramatizations and mimicry is
as apt to shock and outrage as amuse.
Yet he is not really an outrageous comic.
Lenny Bruce is a free-wheeling icono-
clast who pokes fun at some of the sick-
est aspects of our society. His Religions,
Incorporated, for example, isn't anti-
religious, it is his way of indicating the
tendency to turn religion into Big Busi-
ness. Bruce recalls warmly the audience
of graduate ministers from the Berkeley,
California School of Ministry before
which he appeared a few months ago;
Religions, Incorporated was their favo-
rite routine and the one that provoked
the most laughter.

"Remember a year or so ago," he asks,
“a kid in Long Island was stuck in a
well? They finally got him out, and the
doctor who attended him sent his par-
ents a bill. So dig what happens—every-
body starts screaming, ‘What a fink that
doctor is!’ You know, what right has a
doctor who went to school for 12 years
and spent a fortune for his education to
charge us poor people for service ren-
dered? Anyway, the whole country
doesn't sleep for a week worrying about
whether this crook of a doctor is going
to steal a fee. In the meantime, you
pick up any metropolitan paper and you
sec, ‘Negroes can't live here, Orientals
can't live there.’ Always emotionalism
over the wrong things.

“Anyway, so much public pressure is
brought on the АМА. that they call in
this poor doctor and they say, ‘Look, you
can't get paid for that job, but well
make it up to you, We'll give you a new
disease for next year. We haven't done
the grippe for a while. We'll pull a
switch on the grippe and give it a new
working title . . . something exotic . . .
uh... Asiatic Flu. We'll call up Parke-
Lily and get some new pills. For symp-
toms we'll try, let's see . . . nausea, head-
ache, loss of appetite. How's that? For-

get the well job and the disease is yours.’

"So the doctor is taken care of, and
the country breathes easier again, be-
cause now they know that that bill won't
have to be paid after all. However,
there's just one thing . . . the child will
have to be returned to the well."

Misplaced public emotionalism is a
favorite Bruce target. He has built
ing routines on the commercial carnival-
ism that sometimes accompanies a disas-
ter like a mine cave-in ("Get away from
there, kid, quit kicking dirt in the
hole!") and the recent trial of the Ameri-
can soldier for killing a Japanese woman
(“So sorry. Verdict has been change from
life in prison to two weeks at Waldolf-
Astoria,").

Hollywood's puerile tolerance films
bug Bruce, too: "Тһе scene opens in a
schoolyard. We see Juan Rodriguez,
secure in his torn leather jacket, with
all those clean, polished Anglo-Saxon
types. He speaks to the other boys and
we see democracy in action on the streets
of a big city: 'Leesen to me, you guys.
One theeng I cannot forget ees that 1
am a Spanish keed. OK? Pheel here is a
Jewish keed. OK? And here is a col-
ored keed and an Irish keed and an
Italian keed—and, my friends, in thees
country we all have to stick together—
and beat up the Polocks!’”

With such seemingly intolerant humor
as this, Lenny Bruce preaches tolerance
and only the prude and the bigot fail to
get the message. On stage, Bruce takes
on some of the mannerisms of Mort
Sahl, though his material is less cerebral
and a good deal further out. Like Sahl,
whom he considers a close friend, he has
a penchant for milking sacred cows and
he sprinkles his speech with Freudian-
isms like “Oedipus complex.” “sibling
rivalry" and hipster argot like “bread”
(for money), "ball" and "cool iL" He
also fayorss"freaky” and “fink” and ос
casionally somewhat bluer words, though
he insists his reputation as a blue comic
is undeserved, and club owners [or
whom һе has worked tend to agree: "А
sick comic, yeah," say Skip Krask and
Shelly Kasten, of The Cloister, jokingly,
"but not blue,"

Mort Sahl, whose favorite prop is a
newspaper, likes to retell Lenny's reac-
tion to the news headlin
RISE. DIKES THREATENED’
the same," said Bruce, “In time of emer-
gency, they pick on minority groups."

Like Mort, Lenny's current nightclub
career began on the West Coast and he
is almost unknown in the East. This is
actually his second career as a performer,
He got his first chance on the Godfrey
Talent Scout Show, doing take-offs on
Hollywood Nazi films, во popular in the
Forties. From there he played the old
New York Strand and similar spots. “But

1 bombed,” he says. “1 was ready for
them, but they weren't ready for me."
Audiences, however, are growing hipper
and the “inside” comic is the order of
the day in the little clubs across the
country, Lenny Bruce is just a little
more inside — or a little further out, de-
pending on where you're standing —
than any other comedian working to-
day. He is an extremely sensitive per-
former and his audience can make or
break a show. “I think most good come-
dians are insecure," says Lenny. “They're
up there on that stage looking for ac-
ceptance and love. If I haven't managed
any rapport with my listeners in the first
ten minutes, I'm dead. But when I'm
swinging and 1 feel that warmth coming
up at me, I'd like to ball the whole audi-
ence,"

Bruce's background could have easily
been lifted verbatim from the jacket
copy about the author of some current
best seller. Born on Long Island, he and
formal education had had it after gram-
mar school. He worked on a farm,
joined the Navy, saw action at Anzio
and Salerno, came home, then worked
his way to Asia and back aboard freight-
ers. “In those days," he recalls, "my
burning ambition was to write a kind of
seagoing Studs Lonigan. 1 figured that
with my Navy experience, I should know
more four-letter words than James Far-
те." But the only tangible thing he
brought back from his sea service was a
large tattoo on his arm that he got in
Malta, though he says, "I smoked Marl-
boros when I was six and it grew up.”

The weird Mr. Bruce is $4 and a
bachelor. “I was married once, but it
idn't last,” he explains on the stage,
[his sounds like a typical comic rou-
tine, but my marriage was broken up
by my mother-in-law. Actually, my
motherán-law broke up my marriage.
One day my wife came home early from
work and caught us in bed together.

"Sex can be a serious problem in a
marriage. Have you seen these magazine
ads with the chick sitting up in bed and
her husband sacked out beside her, and.
the caption says, "Не Didn't Even Kiss
Me Goodnight." And its a pitch for
High Potency Rybutol Then it says,
"Night after night, my husband would
come home tired and irritable, and he
wouldn't touch his supper. He'd just sit
around for a while and as soon as his
"head touched the pillow, he'd go off,
But | wasn't suspicious. 1 knew I had
a good man. Until one night 1 opened
up the top drawer of the bureau and I
found a wig and lipstick and high heels."
"This man was nervous and irritable and
never touched his supper, but after tak-
ing High Potency Rybutol, he is now
touching his supper. Doesn't ball his
old lady, but he's touching his food.
Pretty sick.”

POSTAGE STAMP

established old-age pensions, full em-
loyment, and civil rights for women,
who couldn't own any property till
then, and still can't vote.) Neither of
these seemed especially crucial, so Signor
Bugli and I decided to talk about post-
age stamps, which he once sold, Signor
Bugli, with some assistance from Signor
Maiani, said that San Marino used at
first the Kingdom of Sardinia's stamps
and, after the unification, Italy's; the
Sardinian ones are worth from 24 to 400
dollars now when canceled by the Sam-
rinese post office, he said. The first
Sammarinese stamps were issued in 1877,
and philatelists, whose pricing polic
1 wouldn't even pretend to underst:

nd,
were paying only 36 cents for some of
them, but only 16 cents if they weren't
sticky. On the other hand, another of
those stamps is worth as much as $9.68
sticky, $4.08 unsticky, and 5645 can-

celed. Au unscrupulous dealer who buys
a gross of them and puts stickum on
apparently makes a profit of $813.60,
minus the cost of the stickum. Also,
Signor Bugli told me, San Marino used
to make its own money but doesn't any
more.

A while later, positively fascinated by
all this, I did some private research into
the postage stamp matter, and I learned
that 1 Marino made do with the
1877 stamps for half-a-dozen years, over-
printing them сємтємм 5 and CENTE-
sis 10 in 1892, and changing the col-
ors a bit later. Now, though. it is think-
ing them up at 20 or 25 a d has
issued по fewer than 754 ids, includ-
ing 117 air mail ones, although. there
isn't an airport in the whole country.
The stamps commemorate. such various
things as Columbus’ birth and the open
ing of the Sammarinese railway, and
depict such persons as San N
Garibali, Abrah L
Franklin and the Discus Thrower, and,
needless to sa bought up eagerly
by philatelists. in every land, adding
$160,000 a year to the Sammarinese
treasury. 1 also learned that the ink was
hardly dry on the 1892 stamps —the
ones with the overprint семтезімі 5 —
when the printers found that a consid:
erable profit could be had by printing
them all . To the inexpressible
delight of philatelists everywhere, they
began to print centesimi 5 rightside ир,
upside down, singly, doubly, doubly up
side down, and doubly rightside up and
upside down, and bad even printed а
set of вектізімі 5s when somebody told
them to lay off. (Today, the сєктим!
5% are worth 5136 sticky and $72 dry,
and if the "c" is especially fat, they're
worth $160 sticky, 580 dry. How people
figure this out, TI never know.) Accord-
ing to San Marino, someone is now as-
signed to the print shop to stop any

(continued from page 16)

similar malpractices, but 1 noted that
since the war it has printed 64 kinds of
stamps that are perforated wrong, 10 that
are centered wrong, and one that even
is colored wrong, and in 1947 a stamp
that was supposed to be overprinted
GIORNATA FILATELICA wound up as
vorratvitp улумног). To make matters
in Italy has bought up
Sammarinese stamps and messed them
up on his own, overprinting 3 NOVEMBRE
1918 upside down on some of them, for
instance, and making a killing.

бап Marino's stamps are not its only
source of revenue, 1 learned. There are
taxes; and Italy gives it a rakcoff on
its import duties, as it ought to. Never-
theless, 1 learned, the Communists were
going further and further into the hole
after the war, as their annual budget
neared a million dollars. OF course, the
first thing they thought of doing was
printing more postage stamps, including,
in 1947, a series in honor of Franklin
Delano Roosevelt, which they figured
would be a wowser in the United States.
(American philatelists who missed out
in 1947 will be pleased to learn that
Roosevelt can still be gotten for a penny
and a half, sticky or dry, canceled or
not. This is the retail price for the one-
lira Roosevelt, on which is quoted his
historic letter to San Marino. The
President nself is shown in a very
patriotic attitude on the fivelira stamp,
a glorious thing in purple, brown, red,
white and blue. This Roosevelt is worth
2% cents canceled, 215 cents uncan-
celed, $2.40 if his bottom isn't perfor-
ated, 51.20 if his side isn't perforated, a
nickel if he's overprinted, and heaven
knows what if he's overprinted twice,
He also comes in air mail.) Posthum-
ously, F.D.R. wasn’t enough to balance
Marino's budget, though, and Italy,
meanwhile, had aggravated things by
not giving it the import duties, so as ‘to
start ап economic crisis there. getting
rid of the Communists. For a while, the
country didn't know where to turn. At
this critical juncture, there appeared in
San Marino a terribly mysterious per-
son, Mr. Maximo Maxim, who rented a
bungalow, got himself a mistress, wore
yellow velvet gloves, and talked all di
on the long-distance phone, thereby gi
ing vise to rumors not only їп San
Marino but in such remote quarters
Time and Life that he wi
munist spy, perhaps the Communist
boss of Italy. Mr. Maxim, who said all
along, in. vain, that he was just а busi-
nessman, offered to San Ма 400
thousand dollars а year to let him build
a casino there, The Communists agreed
= forgetting that the same offer һай
been made a hundred years before, and
that the captains regent had refused it,
excluiming, "Citizens! It is not by the

intenance of material prosperity that
the good name of [ree states is preserved.
It is by means of the great virtues of
proud and honest republicans, who
know how to repulse riches, even in
poverty."

Mr. Maxim's casino — a couple of bac-
carat tables and five roulette ones —
opened in 1949, and soon was making
money hand over fist, At this point, re-
enter Italy, still trying to get rid of the
Communists. Italy said it wouldn't мапа.
idly by while Italians were being “bled
it put up a roadblock at San Marino's
frontier, told the gamblers to get a pass-
port, a visa and a carnet de passages,
and even then, it held them a few more
hours looking for marijuana in thcir hat
bands, After months of such harassment,
San Marino gave up. The casino was
dosed; Mr. Maxim, arrested in It; ly,
was sent to Isracl; and Italians had to
travel considerably farther, to San Remo,
to bleed. San Marino was 800 thous-
and dollars in the red, unable to
рау its employees for three months.
ince then, it has thought of making
kind of Reno, Nevada, a kind
ma (registering ships), and even
a kind of Parke-Bernet Gallery, selling
such titles as The Count ој Montelupe
for 24 thousand dollars and The Duke
of Peschiera for 37 thousand. but noth-
ing has worked out right. The country
still wasn't solvent when 1 was there.
The casino was boarded up, and great
hiatuses already were to be seen in the
plasterwork.

OL all the places E have written about
for erAvnov, I liked San Marino best.
Andorra, the only other democracy, has
kept its freedom in a rather sneaky way,
1 think, by truckling equally to France
and Spain; San Marino has kept free by
fighting for it. Time and again, it has
been attacked by such people as the
Borgias, the Wronghcads, the Bishops of
Montefeltro, and the Pope. The Pope
invaded it in 1512 (but the army got
lost in а fog, produced, it is said. by San
Marino himself). and the gypsies invaded
ісіп 1559; the Masons wanted it in 1790,
Apparently. Most of these wars were
against the Roman Catholic Church, the
most noted of them being in 1739, when
dinal Alberoni conquered San Marino
nd held it 105 days.

п Marino hay been invaded. only
once since then — in 1944, when it
used as a battlefield by the Germ
the British. A bit carl
ad bombed it, too, believing, in error,
that ammunition was being stored there;
62 people were killed, and a million dol-
worth of damage was done, greater
than all the other invasions together.
San Marino has been asking for compen-
tion ever since. So far, the British are
willing to pay only 72 thousand dollars

in his new life. If he asked for personnel,
he got personnel. If he requested mate-

there any talk of "economy" or
"budget" or "making do." As for his
private comforts, they were so well pro-
vided for that he never asked.

“Our man will be rather cramped in

side. “How long will he stay up, do you
suppose?”

Ivanov shrugged. “Who knows? Two

Wilcox nodded. Cramped . . . more
cramped than Ed Baker, in his, Ran-
dal's, car under Lake Tippset. Poor old
foolish Ed. Had they found him yet?
Nothing was said about it here . . .
Suddenly Randal's eyes fell upon a
space in the maze of dials and devices.
He frowned. “Where is the control to

Wilcox started to speak, thought bet-

"Very well . . . who is the man, by the
way?”

"You," said Grisha Ivanov, calmly.

The Red guards seized Wilcox, “We
are giving you the chance to test your

be sent automatically, but some of it you
will send, The human brain is by no

will be fed. How long will the food sup-
ply las? Who knows how much a man in

the experiment . . . No, I do not think

said Grisha, crisply. “De-

Earth faster than any hi has ever
sped before. It is very cramped in the
satellite he helped build, but it is danger-
ous for him to try to move, anyhow: he
is studded with attachments — needles,
tubes, wires, catheters, electrodes, which
spring from his flesh. He travels from
the southeast in a id orbit and sees
the planet which was his former home
turn and spin beneath him, It is a splen-
did sight. Meteors dart past him — none,
so far, have hit him — but every so often
he sends in reports about them. About
them and about gamma rays and light
refraction and sundry other matters,
Whenever his report is цей, а
light flashes and a fresh supply of liquid
food is allowed to drip into his veins.

The stars blaze hugely. Cloud masses
drift across the face of th. But
very often he can make out clcarly the
country he betrayed « the Gulf, the
Rockies, the Great Lakes . .. Whenever
he passes over it, he sends out a si
of his own, over and over, until the turn-
ing planet tilts and turns its other face
to him and shows the ice-capped poles,
the Urals, the Caucases « . +

Everyone hears it. Blip blip blip beep
beep beep blip blip blip . . . Everyone
knows it is Randal Wilcox, sending out
his SOS. But of course no one can help
him at all.

Even if anyone wanted to.

“Why hang a murder rap on top of

floor. Before I could move, the barrel
came whipping back and caught me on
the ear. Java тап back to the phone, tore
it free, and threw it across the room.
The door slammed behind him and 1
heard his footsteps running down the
hall. Another door slammed and then all
was quiet

Bud sat up slowly, holding his jaw.
"Temper, temper,” he sighed, Then ће

showing everybody the rope burns on
his wrists where he'd been tied to Harry

TV newsmen were ready and Bud told
the story again for the 12th time. Only

a few million people were watching
Kane had a question to ask bim at the
end of it: “Mr. Gordon, may 1 ask what

your lives and help bring these criminals
to justice?

Bud's answer seemed to fill the room.
"Yes, sir, it was Bubble-O, a product of

quietly choking to death in one corner.

Lenny usually performs in a rather
quiet Brooks Brothers manner, but in
his impression of Holy Roller Oral Rob-
erts he fails his arms, stomps his fect,
and waves a snake before his audience.
His impersonations arc excellent and al-
ways worked into the act, as when һе
depicts Bela Lugosi's Count Dracula and
Family as à group of itinerant actors
between bookings (“АЙ right, Junior,
comb your face, drink your blood, bite
Mamma goodnight, and go to bed").
Lenny likes his characters to use the
speceh of show busines and the hippie.
even when they are men in the highest
governmental places. When sia Man
ADAMS and vicina were two headline
staples last year, he envisioned а scene
in the White House in which President
Eisenhower took Adams to tak: “All
right, Sherm—you can level with me,
baby, what else did you take?” Sherman
suggests that they stage a big news event
to help draw the nation’s attention away
from the controversy: "Couldn't we have
a cabinet member shot or something?
ЭН іп Nixon.” says Ше. "Hello
Nick. Sit down, sweetic. Kid looks great
doesn't he, Sherm? Get him some of that
12-year-old Scotch and the good cigars
How do you feel, Nick? OK. Ike.
what's going on? Whats the bit? .
There's no bit. Nick. Sherm and I were
having a few drinks and we wid, let's
have Nick up. You know, were just
kicking around some ideas — Say, Nick,
how'd you like to yo to Lebanon for a
few day? , .. How'd you like 10 go to

After all Гуе done for you, you have the

Even as he carefully nurtures his new
café carcer, Bruce is busy in other media,
тоо. He is working on a weekly ABC TV
show in Hollywood called Lenny Bruce
Swings. He has etched an LP album on
the Fantasy label entitled The Sick
Humor of Lenny Bruce. His greatest

love is probably the movies and he h

who dreams of owning a leather jacker
and a motorcycle, "И be arty, sort of

Despite whatever success he may find
in other fields, Broce-boosters feel he is
best suited to the intimate offbeat rooms
around the country. where his very spe
cial gilt for comic stire is understood
and truly appreciated

“Folks.” says Bruce, "we got a lot of

Herb Caen, the San Francisco oracle,
has this to say about Bruce: “They call
Lenny Bruce a sick comic—and sick he
is, Sich of the pretentious phoniness of
а generation that makes his vicious hu
mor meaningful, He is a rebel, but not
without а cause, for there are shirts that
need unstufhing, egos that need deltating,
and precious few people 10 do the sticky
