A PLAYBOY НО! 


ТЕ a formal jacket combines 


Such cool comfort and dashing style 


... it must be ۸ ft er S xen 


This is the formal wear with an international repute for casual 
comfort; yet possessed of sufficient elegance to grace a reception 
at Monaco. Brilliant styling and masterful tailoring account for 
that! The fabrics are a story in themselves: Silk Shantungs, 


Como and man-made fibers. Their biggest assets: airy 
lightness and crease-resistance. Write us, if your dealer should 
be so neglectful as not to stock After Six for you. Priced from

to Shave 
the 
sour grape? 


NOT RONSON 


Ronson's CFL Shaver is concerned with one thing. The human 
beard. And, in attaining its top-rated shave-ability, it never 
once shaved a fruit. Fuzzy or sour. Nor a prickly plant. 


Top-rated? Maybe you've heard. 


One of the country's leading consumer testing magazines 
stacked up the CFL against every other name brand. 
"Tested them all. Impartially. Mercilessly. Report: the 
Ronson CFL is £he best performing shaver on the 
market today. 

Who'll shave the sour grape? It's a toss-up. But one 


thing's for sure. Ronson won't. A beard? That's some- 
thing else again. As it should be. 


"This is it. The shaver that 
shaves Closest, Fastest, with 
the Lightest touch of all.

LENNY BRUCE 

Lenny Bruce is way out! My sides are 
still split just from reading about him in 
Larry Siegel's Rebel with a Caustic Cause 
in your February issue. Imagine di 
this nut in person! When is he coming 
to Piusburgh?

Кепее Hart 
ittsburgh, Pennsylvania 


Mr. Lenny Bruce is reputed to scathe 
“sacred cows" and “the pretentious 
phoniness of a generation.” One won- 
ders if his fearless material contains any 
criticism of rLaynoy? I would guess not. 
It is too much to hope that therc exists 
а man who dares bite all the hands that 
feed him. 


e Allison H. Roulston 

New York, New York 

Bruce has several bits on PLAYnOY т 

his current act, including, “I want you to 

know I didn't have to do anything for 

that feature in PLAY noy — Oh, went up 

and saw the publisher and we danced a 

little, but there was no kissing or any- 
thing like that.” 


РН. CAN WAIT 
Many thanks for a consistently fine 
azine — even though 1 do lose a 
whole day's work toward my Ph.D. every 
time гглувоу hits the stands!

‘The lovely-visaged valentine who was 
your Miss February is undoubtedly the 
most beautiful creature I've ever seen— 
but will you please tell me her name? 
Charles Newton Tozer

Your Miss February is beyond a doubt 
the most beautiful and sparkling Pla 


mate you ha 1 in months. There

Howard E. Young 


Lincoln, Illinois 

We refer you two fellows to our high- 
class clientele, who read the words as 
well as glom the pictures . 


Many a Playmate has evoked words of 
praise, but February's Playmate, Eleanor 
Bradley, has left me speechless! 


Al Torem 
Los Angeles, California 


February's Playmate, Miss Bradley, 
was devastating. 

Jerry Stover 

New Haven, Connecticut 


What a stir your February issue caused 
in Waukegan, the home of Miss Eleanor 
Bradley. She was interviewed by the 
local press and radio, stores that don't 
ordinarily sell magazines ordered copies 
from your distributor and one sold over 
1000 out of bushel baskets at ап auto- 
graph party. By the end of the first 
week, there wasn't a copy to be had this 
side of the Wisconsin е line.

BITTER RICE 
"Tom Mario's January recipe for jam- 
alaya calls for converted rice, None of 
the shops in this neck of the woods have 
ever heard of it. What the hell is it? 
D. Е. Waterman 
Great Falls, Montana 
Converted vice isn’t wild rice; brown 
vice, saffron vice, Puffed Rice or Elmer 
Rice. ICs just regular ordinary everyday 
common or garden rice-type vice. 


PARTY GAMES 
Three cheers for rLaynoy! Although I 
wouldn't recommend your Party Games 
for the Annual Church Social, 1 certainly 
found them great fun, However, you 
neglected to mention that some of the 
games (the Balloon Game, Honeymoon, 
Under the Sheet) can be played by just 
two. To prove this, the girlfriend and I 
experimented and сате up with some 
very interesting variations.

THE SECRETS 
OF WINNING POKER 


Be the first in your crowd to get his runaway best-seller 
that almost takes the gamble out of poker. The first four 
editions were sold out as soon as the ink was dry. A fifth 
printing has just been delivered and a sixth is on press. 


пк Hennenr О. Yarouey book started 

selling like wildfire when a small fı 

tion of it appeared in The Saturday 
Evening Post. 

Your best friends won't tell you what's in 
it — and when you've read it you won't 
tell them. 

It’s called The Enucarion or A Poker 
Prayer, And it's а priceless education. In it 
Yardley tells the secrets of his systems for 
winning at all the usual (and many of the 
таге) kinds of Draw and Stud Рок 


“Never open on two small pair — never” 


“Fold them,” Yardley says. Нез talking 
about Straight Draw, nothing wild, 7 players. 
“It's twelve to one you won't make a Full 
House. ТЕ somebody ење opens, don't stay. 
Anyone who stays on two small pair should 
have his head examined. You fold — or you 
bluff by raising before the draw, standing 
pat, then. betting. 

In the same specific way Yardley looks 
over your shoulder at every hand and tells 
you exactly when to open, and when to pass 
(even though you have openers), when to 
call or stay, when to bluff, when to raise, 
when to be cautious, when to be brazenly 
bold. And when to meckly fold. 

He shows you all this by means of actual 
sample hands which he plays out for you 
nd analyzes, And you learn how to p 
A the odds instead of against them. 


How to develop not only а 
poker-foce but а poker head 


Yardley tells you how to study and “read” 
the other players — watching and analyzing 
their mannerisms, learning their weaknesses 
and thei you a master 
strategist at poker's psychological war. 

He tells you wonderful salty stories (prob- 
ably not for your Aunt Hermine) out of his 
own poker experience around the world — 
stories that sharpen your poker sense 

You “sit in" on the ра which the corn 
grower “Bones” Alverson bet his farm against 
а circus tent show at Five-Card Draw Deuces 
Wild — and won under the unfortunate cir- 
cumstance of no longer being alive at 
time. (After which Yardley gives you a bri 
liant analysis of how to play your cards at 
Five-Card Draw Deuces Wild.) 


HOW WOULD YOU PLAY 
THESE DRAW POKER HANDS? 


The game is Straight Draw — 
nothing wild, Jacks or better to 
open, There are 7 players

hands—and how they should've played then,

Tuckahoe, New York 

It is certainly true that no one changes 
his jazz favorites as often as his ties, but 
rLAYBoY's annual poll offers the most 
accurate report available on America's 
current taste in jazz. During the past 
three years, in addition to the first chair 
changes you mention, PLAYnoY readers 
moved Dizzy Gillespie from third place 
to fourth and dropped Shorty Rogers out 
of the four man trumpet section alto- 
gether to make тоот for Miles Davis in 
the Playboy All-Star Jazz Band; Bob 
Brookmeyer changed seats with Jack 
Teagarden in third and fourth place in 
the trombone section; Coleman Hawkins 
won the second tenor sax chair away 
from Charlie Ventura; and по one could 
have predicted Earl Bostic’s surprising 
win over Bud Shank for the second alto 
spot. Of even greater interest ave the 
changing tides of popularity among the 
artists just below the silver medal win- 
ners: Johnny Mathis was nominated in 
the first poll, but didn’t receive enough 
votes to place in the final results; the 
second year, however, he jumped into 
fourth place, just behind Sammy Davis, 
In, and this year replaced Nat "King" 
Cole in second position, Whether he can 
ever hope to topple top male vocalist 
Frank Sinatra, or will instead lose his 
second place spot to some new upcoming 
singing star, only the усак» ahead can 
tell. Tenor sax man Sonny Rollins, de- 
scribed by eLAvnov Jazz Editor Leonard 
Feather last February as “the most talked- 
about jazz soloist around," was nomi- 
nated in the first poll, but wasn't well 
enough known nationally three years ago 
to appear in the final tabulation; the 
second year, he'd moved into tenth place 
and this time, into fourth in the readers"

From the Hecht’s Bad Boy of The 
Front Page era to the Angry Old Man of 
recent years, Ben Hecht has been a kind 
of madman-ofletters, never doing the 
predictable. In The Sensuslists (Messner, 
58), he runs true to form, combining 
а serious study of psychopathia sexualis 
with a mystery plot. He himself calls 
it "a sort of 19th Century novel minus 
the asterisks.” ‘The characters he has as- 
sembled to illustrate his lecture include: 
whore chasing Manhattan publisher; 
his once-frigid wife (whom he's succe:

Unpolished tape surfaces contain micro-

about 10 plays before these irregularities 
are smoothed out, During this period 
you lose high frequencies and force your 
recorder head to do the job of polishing 
the tape surface. This results in excessive 
head wear. Only Sounderaft Та

In a few months, Jacques Monard, the 
man who wielded an alpenstock over 
Leon Trotsky's head in 1939, will be re- 
leased from a Mexican jail. The Great Prince 
Died (Scribner's, $4.50) by Bernard. Wolfe 
tells of the events leading up to and the 
final results of this assassination. Al- 
though the novel adheres to the basic 
anti‘ Trotsky plot as revealed at the trial 
of Monard, author Wolfe freely admits 
taking liberties with events and person- 
ities in order to make his story more 
readable. A former Trotsky bodyguard 
himself, Wolfe is just as anxious to spout 
philosophy as he is to neatly wrap up all 
the details of his yarn, but anyone intei 
ested in a colorful, richly written blast at 
J. Stalin, his antecedents and successors, 
will find this story of political intrigue 
and murder just the ticket.

Al Capone is a semi«locumentary, un- 
hysterical and somewhat one-dimensional 
reminiscence of gangsterism in the grand 
style. As the Naples-born, Brooklyn- 
raised hood imported to Chicago to 
bodyguard a member of thugdom brass 
only to become kingpin himself, Rod 
Steiger is a kind of whimsical Scarface, 
touchy about his rights as an American 
citizen and the way his name is pro- 
nounced. Working from а screenplay 
that names а few names and overlooks 
others, director Richard Wilson has 
taken time to develop character shad

It's a much abused and a much beloved 
word too, And like the wife who's been a 
peach after ten years of marriage, jazz is 
too often taken for granted. 

It wasn't always so. Sure there's a hard 
core of aficionados who can't hardly look 
at anything unless the liner notes tell you 
that “Pinetop spat blood.” And there are 
collectors who forage through murky an- 
tique record shops looking for a genuine 
Buddy Bolden recording. Bue jazz wasn't 
meant ко lie down in a dark corner and 
play dead, and it hasn't. Even though you 
may take your wife for granted, she still 
exercises her wiles via the well known 
feminine devices; the trapeze dress, pointed 
shoes, pale-pink lipstick, padded hips, 
cleavage (more or less), ad infinitum. Just 
as styles change, so has jazz. More appro- 
priately, jazz has grown. 

When Warner Bros. Records O sec 
out to produce а series of albums devoted 
to jazz, artists and repertoire director 
George Avakian set one simple ground 
rule: lets not make it а potpourri— an 
alphabet soup series of jazz albums. 
may think we've violated the boss’ instruc- 
tions by offering different types of jazz, 
but honestly we haven't. We've put to- 
gether ten albums in different styles of jazz 
simply because we realize that some people 
may think Dixieland is out, while others 
will swear it's in. And the release is capped 

by an album we've

lineated the casual manner in which the 
public and public officials reacted to 
killings at the time. Storywise, the pic- 
ture glosses over the true viciousness of 
Capone, his thugs and his procurers, the 
misery they brought, the terror they in- 
spir s seen mainly through the 

rivals, a woman (Fay 
pain) whom he marries after rubbing 
out her husband, and an honest cop 
(James Gregory). Steiger brings an 
earnestness and a naiveté to the por- 
trayal that take it way out of the sterco- 
type, but when all's done you don't feel 
you know who Capone was, or why he 
happened. 


Poland's а mighty sad place to be,

Alexander Ford and superbly acted, has 
been banned by Premier Gomulka for 
obvious reasons. "Fhe story is remarkably 
simple: young architectstudent Peter 
(Zbigniew Cybulski) and his girl Ag 
shka (Sonja Ziemann) are determined to 
sleep together. But it's а logistics prob- 
lem. When they arrange to meet іп В 
plaster-strewn. room, war bomb damage 
causes the building to collapse almost 
over their heads. The housing shortage 
prevents Peter from getting а place, and 
they can't go to her room because her 
father К mother, drunk brother and a 
boarder live there. Everywhere they 
slosh in the endless rain they're spied 
on, hooted at, threatened, A friend with 
an apartment disappoints them, Then, 
while Peter's being quizzed by police on 
suspicion of burglary, Agnieshka has a 
tragic, drunken affair with a newspaper 
man. Most of this is pretty upsetting 
about the only thing that saves the 
ence itself from despair is its be 
the quiet valor of Agnieshka, who sets 
her jaw and rolls with every punch — 
besides which, she's beautiful. Нико

Across the street from Chicago's Pump 
Room, in a location hitherto noted for 
а series of ill-starred occupants, now 
flourishes the new French restaurant, 
Maison Ісіне (1255 N. State Pkwy). 
Freshly redecorated, the Lafite offers an 
outsize menu full of Gallic dishes at ra 
tional prices. We cleaned up an entree 
of Tournedos de Bocuf à la Française 
sautéed in a wine-and-garlic sauce, ac 
companied by wild rice; annihilated a 
Chateau Lafite Pauillac '26 (expressly 
selected and imported for them, they 
say, by vinophile Alexis Lichine); and, in 
а mood for fireworks, allowed ourself to 
be dazzled by a display of crêpes suzette, 
which tasted good too. A pianist, sensibly 
ensconced outside the dining room, un- 
obtrusively furnishes a background of 
Chopin and other Romantics (jazz would

RECORDINGS 


It's puzzle time, kiddies. The Australian 
Jazz Quintet in Free Style (Bethlehem 6029) 
might scem to be the old A. J. Quartet 
augmented by one, but announces in its 
liner notes that it presents, іп fact, the 
Quintet plus a sixth man, drummer 
Оче Johnson, yet lists seven men under 
the heading “Personnel.” Best you forget 
the arithmetic, though, and listen: this 
is modern, mood jazz, unhard and un- 
with just cnough swing and just 
gh improvisation to make it pleas 
ng to sophisticated ears. Second side 
features a 10-minute job called Take 
Three Parts Jazz, an ambitious original 
which is the fine, unpretentious show- 
piece of the set. 


Love Is а Season (ABC-Paramount 273) 
is Eydie Gormé's sixth big biscuit, and 
on it the buoyantvoiced Miss Gormé 
delivers a delicious reading of the Bart 
Howard title tune, as well as that gentle- 
man's On the First Warm Day, to say 
nothing of 10 other seasonal delights by 
а grab-bag of scripters. London by Night 
(Liberty 3105) is a tour of Julie, not the 
town on the Thames, and the erstwhile 
whispering wonder actually sings on this 
disc, with a minimum of breathy catches. 
Most of the tunes (Nobody's Heart, Mad 
About the Doy, etc.) dwell on unrequited 
love. Johnny Mathis’ Open Fire, Two Guitars 
(Columbia СІ. 1270) is simply not up to 
his earlier effort st of the numbers 
are taken at a dragey tempo and Johnny 
has trouble sustaining his high-register 
tones to the accompaniment of two 
guitars and a bass. Annie Ross Sings а Song 
with Mulligan (World Pacific 1253) is a 
misnomer; Annie really belts out 10 
ditties with Gerry's quartet wailing in

les a long-established fact that Doris Day 
has mighty few peers when it comes to mak- 
ing a popular song sound even better than

this sort of thing that the nation's disc jockeys 
once again have voted her top gal in the pop 


ging business. If her latest album is any in- 
dication, her re-election next year is assured.

out near-to-perfect. Case you don't re- 
member, Annie is one-third of the Lam- 
bert-Hendricks-Ross group (rrAvBov, On 
the Scene, April 1959), herein establishes 
herself as a great thrush in her own 
right. The Mulli oup continues to 
blow some of the most intelligent and 
tasteful contemporary jazz we've heard. 


Modern Italian composer Ottorino 
Respighi (he died in 1936) was a musical 
schizo, torn between the issical and 
Romantic schools. Both seem to have 
merged harmoniously in the three sets of 
Antiche Arie e Donze (Angel 45028), the 
third of which has

of remote Іше pieces by Ignoto, Roncalli 

ighi is most effectively 
displayed as a star pupil of his orchestra- 
tion teacher, Rimsky-Korsakov. In addi- 
tion to the Respighi work, old-timers 
Albinoni and Bassani receive similar 
Simoniz from, respectively, youngsters 
Giazotto and Malipicro, and that star 
old-timer of them all, Vivaldi, sturdily 
stands unaided by Giovanni-come-late- 
lies. Renato Fasano conducts.

ous fare. Subjects for his macabre merri- 
ment include Ike, Sherm and Nick, Re-

is one in which two German showbiz 
agents, circa 1930, are auditioning рео-

until one of them discovers the hidden 
talents of the somber citizen. painting

previously examined in detail (rrAvnov, 
Rebel with a Caustic Саше, February 
1959), is an adept deliverer of dialect, 
ranging from the Teutonic to the sub- 
Mason-Dixonic. Give a listen; you have 
nothing to lose but your mind.

Е WILL MAKE THE ACQUAINTANCE OF FIVE PERSONS during this tale, all of them sailing in a palace; and we will 
start with two of the most sinister organisms afloat. 
Mr. A. Margolies and Мт. John Rippler are two s 


е, well-polished gentlemen, first-class passengers on ап 
Atlantic liner. So far as anyone knows, Mr. А. Margolies does not possess а first name; even his passport says А. 
(Only) Margolies. Nevertheless, he exists: short, chubby, bespectacled, rather more jovial than necessary for most 
of the social situations that he encounters: the small-Amer ecutive type, not at all like the stereotype of 
the professional cardsharp. Yet that is what he is. The impression he creates is much to his advantage. 

John L. Rippler does not enjoy this advantage. He is slight апа swarthy, with keen darting eyes and а hair- 
line mustache and a nervous way about him: in appearance the very image of the international crook. 
Because of his name, his line of business, and his methods, he has long had to put up with the tag of Jack the 
Ripper among his colleagues. He would appear to be a good person for any other practitioner in the field to stay 
away from. However, for many years he and Margolies have enjoyed a close and profitable friends 

‘Tonight they have met in the first-class bar on the eve of sailing, while the vessel is only an hour out of South- 
ampton. They аге not surprised to find each other there; indeed, they would have been much alarmed had it not 
been зо. For they аге embarking on a new venture this time, and its success depends on the closest coordination of 
plan: 

“I trust you had a pleasant and rewarding summe 

“I did,” Margolies replies. “I visited Paris, Zurich, Palermo, Adi 
not insurmountable ones. The tour was successful.” 

“You got the stufi?” 

"I got it" Margolies lets out with onc of his big loose laughs, purely from habit. "In Cairo it came through." 
He leans closer, “One kilogram of pure heroin, and I have it down in my cabin now. Right through Egyptian and 
British customs without the slightest malfunction.” 

Jack the Ripper conceals his excitement. “What shape is it in?" he asks. 

Margolies cannot help himself: he bellows with laughter; his eyes twinkle with the guileless good nature that 
has been the undoing of so many unwary card players in search of a friendly game. "Let's go take a look at и, 
he says. 

Together they make their way to Margolies’ stateroom, where he opens one of his suitcases. There, lying right 
on top, is а large leather vanity case full of toilet necessities for milady: row upon row of jars and boxes and 
implements and tubes, all done up elegantly in cellophane and bows. 

\ clever fellow in Cairo put this together for me,” he says, “and even tinted some of the drug pink. You see, 
it utterly disarms suspicion by being so very obvious. Some of it is window dressing, of course; it is those boxes of 
bath powder, talcum powder, face powder, and that tooth powder next to the toothbrush that arc of interest; also, 
under the surface grease, the jars of cleanser and cold cream. It would take a callous and suspicious customs inspec-

tor indeed 
beauty. 

And it would take a complete mo- 
ron," Rippler says, "to pay you $20,000 
for this box before he checked." Where- 
upon he takes up the container of tooth 
powder and carefully peels back the 
cellophane from the top; carefully he 
opens it and tilts it against his wetted 
finger, which he places on his tongue. 
His face, severe and cruel, does not yet 
relax. On a piece of paper he pours out 
the entire contents of the container, and 
n he conducts the taste test. Only 
then does his expression convey satis- 
faction, 

"Good boy, A. Only,” he says, as he 
pours the powder back. "This is pure 
snow. I hope you will pardon my little 
precaution, but I had to assure myself 
that you had not been bilked by some 
wily Arab. 

“Perfectly understandable,

has now been fulfilled. If you would 


be so good 
Rippler pulls out his shirttails and 
exposes a money belt, from which he 
counts out 40 five-hundred-dollar bills. 
He is glad to do so, knowing that he is 
buying something worth $100,000 in 
ork. Margolies pockets the money. 
he says, "after you have taken 
сазе to your room, let us return го 
the bar and mingle with the passengers, 
to size up the prospects for a nice quiet 
game of poker. 
“Well, about that" Rippler says. 
"With this big pile of snow still on 
hand, are we so smart to risk maybe 
getting into trouble over the cards?” 
dy friend," Margolies says, "look 
at it this way. We are known for what 
we are on every boat making the At 
lantic run. The ships’ officers warn the 
players every time, and almost every 
time the marks ignore the warning. 
Now, what would the officers suspect if 
suddenly we were pure as driven snow 
—ho ho, pun, get it?” And he lets loose 
another tiresome avalanche of chuckles. 
"I get it," Rippler says sourly. "You're 
right, We'll carry on business as usual," 
The two men have perfected a method 
to this end. After the initial sizing up. 
and during the evening of the second 
day out, when the bon-voyage hang 
overs have been dispelled by time, medi. 
cation and the curative virtues of salt 
sea breezes, Margolies performs some 
card tricks in the lounge. Rippler is 
hís audience, and is astonished no end. 
Soon a group has gathered; soon thc 
prospects are being asked to take a card, 
any card. Cries of admiration and per- 
plexity follow cach wick. Margolies is 
asked how in the world he did that one; 
with jovial laughter he shows them. 
None of his tricks involve any sleight 
of hand. 
“Well now,” he says at last, “who'll 


join me in а few rounds of poker? 
There's nothing I love more than a 
friendly game of dealer's choice. You, 
sir? You look like a real river-boat 
gambler, ho ho." 

Well, I wouldn't mind a little 
Jack the Ripper answers, "if 
it's not too steep.” 
within 10 minutes the two 
sharpies аге хешей at a table with five 
suckers, two of whom have been sized 
up as promising victims for the big kill 
on the final night. This first game is a 
very mild affair: quarter ante, two- 
dollar limit. Even so, three of the suck- 
ers manage to lose over a hundred dol- 
lars apiece. Margolies and Rippler 
and the two real 
prospects win all the money, They are, 
of course, much pleased, and make a 
date for a game the next evening. Сі 
ies are exchanged and the players 
go their separate ways. The three losers 
actually do go their separate ways. Mar- 
yolies and Rippler appear to part, but 
rejoin out of sight in the corridor. 

"I think we got them hooked, those 
two," Jack the Ripper says. "They must 
have a couple of million between them 
and they play cards like they were 
thinking of something else. This might 
turn out to be a very good thing. 

"I believe it will," Margolies says. 

The two in question have not parted. 
They go to the bar for a nightcap. 
(They are, as you may have guessed by 
now, two more of the five persons ad. 
verted to in the lead sentence.) One of 
them is Jeff Hartley, Jr, а young man 
of 24, heir to the Hartley ball-bearing 
fortune and, not unnaturally, a rising 
executive in the firm, Vice President in 
Charge of Foreign Sales. Hence his 
presence on the boat, A week before, 
he was revisiting the hamlets and lanes 
of Normandy that he had first seen 
from above on D-Day-plus1, floating 
down under an umbrella of nylon. He 
is a prepossessing fellow in a blond, 
energetic sort of way. He fancies him- 
self a pretty good poker player. 

‘The other is Artemus Charles Thorne, 
а man who has led a varied and offbeat 
life: white hunter in Kenya, gun run. 
ner, explorer, consulting engineer for 
hydroelectric projects in India and 
Alaska, and finally an ой prospector in 
Venezuela, where he made his bundl 
Now he is a gentleman of leisure: tall, 
almost gaunt, impeccably dressed, he 
looks very distinguished іп his sweeping 
white mustache, pince-nez and kilt. Yes, 
Мг. Thorne wears a kilt, and at the 
bar he explains why, with a faint burr. 

"Тіз a damned comfortable garment, 
Mr. Hartley," he says, "particularly in 
hot weather. Now that I am not obliged 
to consider what opinions powerful 
fools may form of me, 1 find it con- 
venient to wear it. 


Jef chuckles, and Thorne inquires 
sharply the reason for his mirth. 

“No offense, sir," Jeff says. "I was just 
thinking what the effect might have 
been if we had been so dressed when 
we were parachuted into France. The 
war might have taken a different 
course. 

Thorne laughs long. While he is at 
it, Jeff Hartley, Jr., sees coming toward 
them a girl who is altogether too good 
to be true: tall, innately graceful in her 
moyeinents; clear brow, fine skin, bulges 
at the right places, joints at elbow and 
knee, (She is, of course, No. 5.) Jelt 
makes immediate plans to break away 
from old Mr. Thorne. 

‘Oh, Mr. Hartley," Thorne says, 
like you to meet my daughter Mi 
child of my old age, after I became 
Prospero-us." 

Jef Hartley changes his plans at once. 

“How do you do, Mr. Hartley,” she 
says. “1 hope you will pardon my fa- 
Шеге unspeakable sense of humor. I 
cannot, being stuck with the name of 
Miranda, So," she continues, turning 
to her father, "you have been playing 
poker all evening. I presume you won?" 

"Mr. Hartley and I both had the 
Eood fortune to win," says Thorne. 
"Furthermore, І believe we shall win 
even more tomorrow.” 

"Oh, it's to be one of those trips, is 
it?” she says. "Poker every night. Mr. 
Hartley —" 

Сай me Jef,” he says "

“I am mot almost everybody," МЕ 
randa replies. "I may call you Jeff or 
1 may not, depending on how things 
work out. So far you are still Mr. 
Hartley. 

"As you can see," Thorne interjects, 
“Miranda is a girl of pronounced prin 
ciple 

"E sce," Jeff says. Privately he is 
pleased to note that her statement holds 
the door open for something to work 
out. 

The next morning he seeks her, and 
finds her at last in a deck chair, next to. 
an empty one. It is not his, but no 
matter: he eases himself into it. 

"Good morning, Miss Thorne,” he 
says. 

"Good morning, Jeff," she replies. 

“That didn't take as long as I thought 
it would," he says. "How did 1 make 
the grade so fast?" 

Miranda bats her big eyes at him. 
“Well, last night Daddy told me how 
rich you are, and what a lousy poker 
player, and since I like rich men who 
are not gamblers I thought it would be 
a good idea to be nice to you. You see?" 

Jeff is taken aback. This girl is ob- 
viously no ordinary dreamboat. There 
arc many questions he wants to ask.

were a girl of high principle?” 

"Oh, I am," she answers. 

“Then what caused you to reler so 
promptly to my wealth?” 

"One of my foremost principles," she 
says sweetly, "is not to answer questions 
of that sort. 

“Well, what's this stuff about how 
I'm a lousy poker player? J thought 1 
did pretty good." 

"You are horrible," she says, "and 1 
could love you for it. 1 have had enough

"Cool down, buster" she answers 
"You have cly made it to first base 
It's a long round to home plate.” 

The game that evening is a cozy 
game, just the four of them. The three 
others have learned their lesson and 
withdrawn. Margolies makes a point of 
this. 

"Well, it looks like the ribbon clerks 
found the diet too rich for their blood,” 
he says, with a few whoops of glee. “No 
reason why we men shouldn't make the 
game a little more interesting. What do 
you say to a 10-dollar limit? 

"Sounds OK to me," says Jack the 
Ripper. "How about you fellows? 

“Not too rich for my blood,” Jeff says. 
pretty mad at old Thorne for 
depreciating his playing, and tonight he 
is going to show him. 

"Let's ро," ‘Thorne says. 

So the game begins. It is really extra- 
ordinary what bad luck Margolies and 
Rippler have. Margolies will have three 
of a kind: Thorne will draw the fifth 
card to a straight or flush, Rippler will 
have а flush: Jeff gets a full on the last 
card. The losers make many lugubrious 
but good-natured comments on the way 
things are going. At midnight, when the 
game breaks up, they are out a matter 
of nearly $800 apiece, and ]еН has the 
greater part of it. 

“I guess you fellows are too good for 
me," Margolies says, laughing long. 
"Still, I'm not one to give up. Maybe 
my luck'll change tomorrow. How about 
another try tomorrow?" 

"Suits me,” says Jeff, full of oai 

“I have nothing better to do, 
Thorne. 

"Those guys are chumps," Је says, 
when he and Thorne are alone. “And 
what's this business about my poor 
poker? Who has the twelve hundred

“Oh, Miranda squealed, did she?"

"A little game of seven-card stud," 
he says. No excitement develops as 
three tens beat kings up, and Rippler 
pulls in a pot of hardly two hundred 
dollars. The next hand, five-card stud, 
is even less interesting: Margolies wins 
on an ace-queen. In fact, there is no 
reason to detail the early stages of this 
game; the big action comes about two 
hours later, after both Jeff and Thorne, 
in slow dribbles, have lost about а thoi 
sand apiece. Rippler has just dealt 
ven-card and Jeff has won back almost

cards in, with much good-natured ban-

steward, anyway? My glass has been 
empty for half an hour. Steward! Stew-

Jeff and Thorne tum to sce where 
he is. In this instant Margolies removes 
the shuffled deck from the table and 
picks up the cold deck that Rippler 
has placed on his knee. 

"Oh, he'll be back, 
“Cut, please, 

Jack the Ripper lifts exactly 18 cards 
from the top of the deck, Margolies puts 
the deck back together and deals. "Let's 
see what this will bring, Ante 50 for

It brings, needless to say, plenty. 
Thorne finds himself with three kings. 
Jeff holds four cards to a straight flush, 
Six to nine of hearts. So does Rippler: 
the cight, nine, ten, jack of clubs. Mar- 
golies has nothing. 

It is for Thorne to bet, and he comes 
out with a hundred. Jeff raises а hun.

Is for a substantial raise," and puts 
in $700. Margolies folds. Thorne knows 
that the moment has come; he kicks 
Jeff in the ankle; then he raises the pot 
à thousand. Jeff ponders a moment and 
es another thousand. 

"Well," Margolies exclaims, laughing 
long, "here we are, getting some action, 
and its just my luck to be out of it. 

The pot now contains $5300. Rippler 
is afraid things may be moving a bit too 
fast, and merely calls the raises. Thorne 
pretends to consider what to do. "Tell 
me again,” he says. correct that the 
card with one pip is worth more than 
the card with two pips?” This calls 
forth shrieks of overwrought laughter. 
He thereupon raises a thousand. 

“Well,” says Jeff, “I think the time 
has come to separate the grocers from 
the men of lofty vision. ГИ call that 
thousand and raise five.” 

Jack the Ripper takes а long look at 
him while he is writing the check. He 
knows what Jeff holds and he is think- 


Margolies says. 


ing that nobody is crazy enough to bet 
that sort of money on the come, not 
even for a straight flush. Moreover, the 
main action is supposed to take place 
after the draw, not before. He begins 
to suspect that all is not as it should be. 
Again he merely calls. Thorne, feeling 
that things have gone far enough, calls 
also. 

The pot now contains $26,300. The 
next four cards in the deck are, in 
order, the fourth king, the five of hearts, 
the 10 of hearts and the queen of clubs. 
Whether Thorne draws one card (being 
сарсу) or two, Jeff will fill his hand. If 
‘Thorne does draw one, and ен draws 
опе (as he must), Rippler would stand 
to get the 10 of hearts—a card of no 
use to him — were it not that Margolies 
is a master at dealing the second card 
from the top. So nothing can go wrong. 

But something доев go wrong. 
Margolies says. 
Thorne says. He gets them.

^ Jeff says. "Let me give 
that deck a cut, just for luck.“ 

Margolies blanches. “A cut?" he whis. 
pers. 

"Why not?" Jeff says. "A player can 
cut the deck any time he wants to — 
you know that. And boy, I sure need 
some lud 

Margolies is helpless. He does not, 
however, show any sign of distress. He 
lays the pack оп the table, knowing 
that Rippler will in his turn call for 
а cut and restore the original order. 
But Thorne has warned Jeff of this 
possibility, and Jef s

fashion. Not even Rippler can xecon

"Now, give me a cud," (ен say:

prised that it is not right. 

Jack the Ripper is already making 
plans for revenge; but right now, with: 
out a word, he discards one card. There 
is still one chance in 28 that he will 
catch the other end of his straight flush, 
the seven of clubs. 

"Thorne knows that he has nothing to

looks ruefully at his hand and checks

$10,000. He is bluffing, but it is his 
chance to salvage the pot. Thorne is 
confronted by the possibility that Rip- 
pler may have hit, or that something 
may have gone amiss, or that Jeff may 
have held three of a kind too, while 
Rippler held a pat four aces from the 
start. It is only after some thought that 
he writes out the check. 

Jeff folds, of course. Rippler simply

pertinent pointers 
for a bon voyage 


By PATRICK CHASE 


THERE 18 AN INNER CIRCLE reserved for 
those talented few who perform the art 
of travel with special ease and grace. 
To be sapient, to belong, to know your 
way around wherever you may go, is in- 
deed an art worth cultivating — and the 
process of cultivation is full of fun in 
itself. We propose to tell you here not 
all ye need to know, but а goodly por- 
tion of the unwritten rules for climinat- 
ing that needless cry: Why Didn't Some- 
body Tell Me? 

First of all, you have to know what 
you want from your trip. And that 
means checking with someone before 
you get very far in your planning, ‘Try 
the guidebooks. They run the gamut, 
from Baedeker and the Blue Guides, 
minutely detailed on all the antiquities 
and natural wonders but woefully inade- 
quate on restaurants, nightclubs, casinos 
and theatres, on through books that ред- 
dle atmosphere like Doré Ogrizek’s 
World in Color series or the Beaux Pays 
series, which are more help you 
might imagine in setting the background 
and suggesting possibilities for your en- 
joyment, on to the sharply useful gen- 
eral guides such ау Fodor's splendid 
Men's Guide to Europe, Sydney Clark's 
All the Best in Europe and more nar 
rowly specialized books like the Guide 
Michelin, Norman Ford's Where to Eat, 
Shop and Stay in Western Europe, 
Roland Palmedo's Ski New Horizons 
and Pastene’s Auto Guide to Europe, 

Then there are the literate апа in- 
formative folders distributed by the 
various government travel offices. Their 
output of literature varies widely but 
will at least provide basic information 
on things to do and sce, when and

where to do and see them, and categor- 
ized hotel lists you can use to check 
those your travel agent recommends. 
And they'll rise on occasion to such 
heights of esoteric service — notably in 
the case of the French and British bro- 
chures—as to provide lists of ghost- 
aunted country homes around London 
and jazz clubs in France 

Use these sources to set up some per. 
sonal aims before you go to see a travel 
agent. Then he takes over. He supplies 
know-how. He tells you when the Rapido 
leaves Venice for Milan and where to 
stay at Stresa and how long to spend in 
Brussels and when Fasching gets under 
way in Vienna. He lays а red carpet, іп 
effect, to your destination and back. He 
has а Citroen waiting for you at the Paris 
airport, if you so desire, or he it 
rolled up to your hotel door the next 
morning, He is wise in the ways of plac 
ing the oldsters in safe retreats where 
enjoyment and inaction are synonymous, 
and he also has the posh spot picked out 
for you where there's something doing 
every minute and cooperative compan: 
ions thereabouts to do it with. He knows 
how to graph the rise and fall of sea- 
sonal excitement at cach resort, and how 
to get you there at its peak. His job is to 
be something of a psychiatrist and mind 
reader in addition to his other duu 
through his good offices, you will never 
find yourself at а strawberry festival 
when roulette is your wish, 

Your travel agent, for example, calmly 


ranges for your deck chair and dining 
salon reservations far in advance, if 
you're going by boat. Thus, while less 


foresighted mortals are lining up for 
their assignments, on the very moment 
that the ship sails you are sharing a 
bottle of champagne in your cabin, hav 
ing copped the choice spots long ago. 

"There are various points you will 
want to discuss with him at your leisure. 
Do you want to sail on one of the big 
liners. figuring that the odds are better 
there — with more people, and more do 
ing — of finding a complacent compan 
ion; or are the fields greener оп some 
of the smaller lines, like Holland-Amer- 
ica, where the freeand-casy mingling іп 
oneclas accommodations might well 
raise the percentage of vacationing col. 
lege girls, secretaries and models? It's 
worth some thought. 

Also worth some thought is the ques 
tion of whether you should set out on 
tightly planned itinerary or just get to 
Europe and ad lib from there on out, 
taking side їтїр» as your whim or your 
women dictate, The latter may sound 
more promising. but the arranged-in- 
advance plan is generally considered 
much the better way. The time you'll 
save by not having to make your reserva- 
tions at cach step in your point-to-point 
progress, not to mention the frustrations 
avoided, leaves you in far better shape 


to reap your full measure of adventure. 

To find the travel agent who's right 
for you, first ask vour friends. Have 
they used an agent lately? Good or bad 
service? Did he cotton fast to their ideas 
or try to force his own? Second, check 
the agent's credentials. Is he a member 
of ASTA, the American Society of Travel 
Agents? What does the local bank have 
to say about him? ASTA membership 
isn't the ultimate criterion: there are 
some pretty poor agents in ASTA and 
some damn fine ones outside the associ- 
ation. But at least it’s a clue: it proves 
the guy’s been doing a fair volume of 
honest business for at least three years, 
and is recognized as a retail sales outlet. 
by many airlines and ship lines. Third, 
walk into the agency and look at the 
folders he carries іп racks; see whose 
tours he carries. If he handles only а 
very few companies, he may not be the 
guy you want; if he handles too many 
tours, be leery, Мом important of all, 
see if he talks your language. After all, 
you may be staking a couple of thou- 
sand bucks and several weeks of your 
time on his judgment of what you'll сі 
joy. So it pays to be sure that you under- 
stand cach other. 

On behalf of the air and ship, rail and 
bus lines, the tour organizers and resort 
operators, the car-rental outfits and the 
sightseeing services, the agent can offer 
you these wares: 

Packages — usually prepared for the 
agent by an airline or railroad in combi- 
nation with a resort hotel — offer a stay 
at a resort with a variety of extras. By 
buying a number of services for a stipu- 
lated period, booked and paid in ad- 
ince, you get a break in prices. They 
are normally quoted without the fare, 
which is extra. Typical of these are the 
Miami Beach раскар week at a 
smart resort. hotel, a rental car for your 
use while there, two meals a day, cve- 
ning entertainment and some sightseeing, 
all for about $165, plus fare. 

When you are considering packages, 
and particularly package tours, it will 
often. р: to use a smaller agent 
ther than one who's just a local branch 
for big tour wholesalers, since the inde- 
pendent agent will usually have a wider 
variety of package plans to offer you 
nd will have no special interest in push- 
ing one over the others. Packages — nor- 
mally quoted on the basis of а shared 
room with a slight supplement for room- 
ing on your own are most usual at 
domestic vacation spots and are designed 
to hold you longer than you might 
otherwise stay im one spot, as distinct 
from a package tour which moves you 
along from place to place. 

Package (ours — usually prepared for 
the agent by a tour operator or whole- 
saler — offer one-to-fourday packages at 
several points, with transportation be- 
tween these рі а either a courier 


going along on so-called “escorted 
tours, or with a man to meet you at each 
arrival point, transfer you to the hotel, 
advise you about the local scene. Do- 
mestic package tours are usually quoted 
just for the destination area, with fare 
there extra, while overseas tours are 
normally quoted to include the major 
round-trip transportation (say across the 
Adantic) from а prime U.S. departure 
point (New York, San Francisco, СВЕ 
cago, etc). As a general rule, it's wise to 
take а conducted tour if it's your first 
trip abroad. True. you may shrink from 
the notion of having some character tell 
you what to do, or from being herded 
around in a group, but the tour does 
have obvious advantages which may well 
overcome these drawbacks. 
kage tours run all the way from 
three days in neighboring countries to 
100 days or more around the world, and 
from $100 to $300 close to home to $6000 
and wi up. In addition to general 
tours, which offer some of everything — 
the sights, side trips, nightclubs, theatre, 
а day at the races— there are special 
interest tours, angling the itinerary and 
devoting most of the time to one activity. 
Typical are ski tours averaging around 
5800 for three weeks at three different 
ski resorts in Europe. The range, how- 
ever, is infinite: yacht cruises through 
the South Seas to a brewer's circuit of 
ny. It's up to you

witching damsels is about to set sail for

importance of calls, some lines fly you 
across the Atlantic to save time on the

Another way to buy а cruise is to pick

tour: where, for instance, there are i 
adequate hotels and not too much to see

the West Coast of Africa and the East

ting musicians and entertainers on

lunches and the rest. Skip so-called cruises 
on l2-pasenger freighters unless you 
have time to spare and special interests 
to keep you happily occupied while the 
ship holds over to load cargo, or ship- 
ping orders are changed. 

Independent tours — this is the real 
test of the caliber of an ent, Here 
it can pay you to use the local retail 
outlets of major tour wholesalers 
Smaller agents often (but by no means 
always) don't have the background or 
the facilities to handle fairly esoteric 
independent itineraries. So they hecome

und then returns tickets and vouchers. 
and all the rest to your small retailer to 
sell to you as his own. Better, then, to 
go yourself to the prime source — which 
also maintains offices abroad to help you 
оп the spot. Here's how: 

а.) Allow a day for your transatlantic 
flight (five to eight d ch way by 
ship). even if you fly overnight and ex- 
pect to be cleared through customs and 
at your hotel before lunch. You'll need 
the afternoon to get oriented and to 
begin planning the details of your st 
in town with the hotel concierge (the 
fount of all wisdom, often better than 
local wavel agents, city or national tour- 
ist office), and to phone any friends, Bc 
sure to have your travel agent fix both 
your outward and inbound flights firmly 
belore you leave: a fouled return reserva 
tion in the crowded season can cost you 
days more in hotel and meals at a point 
you've already "done" amply, As a side- 
light, it's fasc ng to see the slices in 
air time being brought about by the jets. 
For instance, you can now fly from New 
York to London in 6½ hours, from Lon- 
don to Paris in an hour and five minutes. 
You can also hop from Paris to Rome in 
two hours, from Rome to Athens in an 
hour and 50 minutes, and from Athens. 
to Istanbul in an hour and 10 minutes. 
As Art Buchwald says, In the next few 
years jet airliners will make it possible 
for people to have breakfast in London, 
New York, breakfast in Los 
Angeles, and breakfast in ‘Tokyo, all in 
the same day. A whole new vista is 
opening for people who like big break- 
fasts. 

b.) Allow at least four days at each 
major city—and arrange with your 
agent, before you leave home, for a morn- 
ing of rubber-necking on the day after 
you arrive at each key point, so as to get 
the standard sights behind you and get 
the feel of the place. Plan to spend most 
of the afternoon of that day walking — 
there's life in the streets, and the only 
Way you'll savor it is on your two fect. 


Complete your arrangements that 
afternoon, too, for the balance of your 
time in town: check shows and night- 
clubs in This Week in Paris or its local 
equivalent, and have the hotel porter 
make reservations. Surely allow a full 
day of your tour for a trip outside the 
city. Obyious ones are from Paris to 
Versailles or Fontainebleau, from Lon- 
don to Oxford or Stratford, from Rome 
to Naples or to Ostia for the swimming. 

And plan, too, for at least one day 
devoted purely to fun in cach of your 
main stopping places. You could spend 
the day sailing near Copenhagen ог 
riding in the forests near Salzburg or 
going to the races іп England or . . 
well, what do you enjoy, anyway? АН it 
takes is to remember that the locals 
don't spend all their time gawking at 
statues; they like to live, too. Find out 
how they do it—and do the same. 

ls important to maintain a certain 
flexibility. So — despite your agent's ad- 
monitions that you'll never manage 
without firm reservations for every single 
night — leave yourself at least опе com- 
pletely unscheduled day or even two for 
every five days to a week you're abroad.

ways does come up to change your pl 
so leave yourself some elbow room. 

с) Make most of your intercity con- 
nections by plane — especially if you're 
in a hurry or оп long hauls—since 
they're much more flexible if you want 
to change flights at the last minute; a 
ir amount of time and money usually 
gets lost in the cumbrous process of 
changing a railroad reservation (that is, 
if you have a Pullman room or seat 
rather than just an unreserved first-class 
ticket). Plan rail and bus runs only 
through particularly scenic regions. Re- 
member, too, that there's nothing to 
мор you — and much to encourage you 
— from using other methods of trans- 
portation: a boat perhaps across Lake 
Geneva or along the Rhine or Danube 
as part of your continuing transporta- 
tion, or a barge from Holland to Ger- 
many. You'll find out about these poss 
bilities by reading up before you ро — 
and also by asking questions like crazy 
once you're on the spot. 

"Go Now — Pay Later" has boomed 
during the past two years, which 
derstandable enough in an economy 
where credit is the big thing. Stand 
credit practices apply: you pay 1 
down in cash and pay the balance in 
monthly installments spread over any 
period up to two and sometimes three 
years. Interest rates vary, so it might pay 
you to shop around for the best deal, if 
money's your worry. If you want to 
eliminate the need for carrying large 
sums of cash around with you once 


un-

a credit card. There's nothing you can't 
buy these days with this modern horn 
of plenty up to and including a dancing

down as dessert on the Diners’ Club tab!

Who's coming?" 

Take a chance. You'll find something: 

I wasn't too interested. I could get just as drunk in town and a boat trip оп the East River wasn't much — 
I'm not one of those sailing buffs — even on a plush cruiser like Ned's. (He can sleep 14.) Га have to taxi all 
the way to Queens — I had gone the route before — I could guess who would be on board: Helen, Ned's 
wife. Jake and Lena, his Westchester neighbors. Bill Rapson, the press agent, with that skinny ballerina he 
was keeping. She'd undoubtedly bring that feisty French poodle. The regular television crowd, a writer or 
two, maybe another agency man like me and the usual straggler who shacked up somewhere and missed his 
train home. It probably would rain Saturday and we'd all be jammed inside the cabin talking and drinking 
and smoking until the air was so thick you couldn't sec your cuff links. I wasn't champing at the Би. 

‘That was my trouble these days — Г had lost the old zing. In more ways than I cared to admit. Especially 
to Ned. 

You can't hide it from your wife. “Maybe you're working too hard," Ma

through my teeth like a stripped gear. “Со to Boston,” 1 snapped. “Get yourself wined and dined and 
undermined by some department store junior executive.” 

“I always sleep top brass.” 

“I keep forgetting you can afford the best.” I was sorry immediately. We had been chipping av 
other like this for weeks. The cuts were getting deeper. 

On Saturday there I was in the cabin on the boat in the rain and everything was just as I had expected 
to be — except for this girl.

her whiskey on the rocks, laughed at the jokes but didn't match stories with anyone. A girl who had been

IN THE SWIM 


SINUOUS CINDY FULLER was, until quite 
recently, a secretary in a quiet, Dicken- 
sian little law office in Boston, Massa- 
chusetts. We see her in these photographs 
in Miami, Florida, whither she was 
drawn by her pet passion, swimming. 
Miami offers much to the swimming en- 
thusiast: plenty of brother and sister 
enthusiasts, plenty of sum, plenty of 
water sports, plenty of water. It was in 
the hope of becoming a professional 
swimmer that Cindy left the bastion of 
the Brahmins for the balmy, baskable 
Florida clime. Her aquatic talent, plus 
her stunning looks, make her a natural, 
and just before putting this issue to 
press, we learned that Cindy had won 
an assignment with the Water Follies. 
Her stunning looks make her a natural 
for this month's Playmate, too, and her 
aquatic talent has nothing whatever to 
do with it. Elsewhere in this issue, you'll 
find 10 pages devoted to a lively Miami 
party attended by Cindy and four other 
lively ladies.

featured in last month’s issue; bachelor Harold Chaskin actually built such a dream house and this picture 
story of a housewarming party gives some indication of the fun that is to be had in such surroundings. 
It was springtime in Miami when Chaskin, a youthful New Yorker, first arrived on the scene. That was back 
in 1950; Chaskin had with him one suitcase, containing all his worldly belongings, and his entire financial 
holdings — $40 in cash. He also had with him, still, the slightly bitter taste of a couple of jobs beid tried out 


in New York's unfriendly chill, after the war, and an enthusiastic conviction that the warm simpatico atmos- 
phere of Miami might prove much more to his liking and might offer him an opportunity to turn his talents 
and his energy to profitable enterprise. He took a job with a tile contractor, quit within a month and decided 
to give that business a go on his own. He persuaded a supplier to give him tile on credit and formed the

а magnificent reality. Situated at the 
water's edge on Biscayne Bay, in a breeze- 
swept setting of swaying palms, 
kin's house is more like a spacious Ьасһе 
Jor apartment than like the usual Florida 
family house. It actually has many fea- 
tures in common with Playboy's Week- 
end Hideaway, а kind of tribute which 
Chaskin, member of the Lifetime 
Playboy Club, appreciates, especially 
since he designed and decorated his 
haven virtually unaided 

Harold Chaskin not only knows how 
to design a dream house, he also knows 
how to warm it. For his hou: ming 
party, he invited five beautiful Miami 
misses and, being a considerate fellow 
and consummate host, he invited a few 
male friends to join the jollification 
later in the day. The girls—a lovely, 
lively, carefree fivesome who were eager-

of tlie Month.

got there, but his houseboy welcomed 


Off for a spin around the bay in Chaskin’s runabout, the 
Ungawa Massaba, he and Mary Jane—with Scotty, Fran and

Chaskin introduced the girls to his 
three pet chimps, Seymour, Josephine 
and the baby, Candy, who live in а cage 
at the edge of the pool, then let them 
play with them on the back terrace that 
leads down from the house to the bay. 
Everyone enjoyed the chimps’ antics 
they scooted up a palm tree and played 
tag across the roof. At this point a neigh- 


bor, Scotty, arrived and suggested they 
take the speedboat out for a turn around 
the bay. Harold Land he, Scot, Fran 
and Mary Jane clambered aboard, with 
little Candy completing the crew as 
navigator 

While the others were boating, Bonnie, 
Cindy and Dottie went up to the private 
solarium to sunbathe. By the time the 
boaters returned, they were drawing 
water in the huge sunken tub and for a 
lark, all five girls decided to bathe to- 


gether in the manner of ancient Rome, 
which befitted the room’s decor. If there's 
anything more fun than a barrel of 
monkeys, it's five girls in a giant tub, 
splashing up suds and having a ball. 
While the girls were taking their time 
getting dressed, their dates arrived and 
had time for a drink and a few male 
jokes. Then the girls joined them and 
all strolled casually the block-and-a-half 
to the Latin Quarter, the world-famous 
dub (featured іп tano, October

wasn't possible to see below the surface

Fran into joining her. Cindy decided to 
go in. Once the girls were in the water,

AXE in was a small, dusty, backward 

planet out near Orion. Its people were 
of Earth stock, and still adhered to 
arth customs. Judge Abner Low was 
the sole source of justice upon the little 
planet. Most of his nvolved 
property lines and the ownership of pigs 
and geese, for the citizens of Oaxe И 
ad little flair for crime. 
But one day a spaceship landed con- 
taining the notorious Timothy Mont 
and his lawyer, who had come to Oaxe 
II for sanctuary and justice. And an- 
other spaceship came, containing three 
policemen and a Public Prosecutor. 

The Public Prosecutor stated, “Your 
Honor, this fiend has perpetrated a 
heinous crime. Timothy Mont, Your 
Honor, burned down an orphanage! 
Furthermore, he pleaded guilty before 
he fled. 1 have his signed confession.” 

Monts lawyer, a pallid man with cold 
fish eyes, rose, “Your Honor, my client 
is guilty. Г request that you put aside 
sentence.” 
I'll do no such thing," Judge Low 
said. "Burning an orphanage is a hor- 
rible crime. 

“It is" the lawyer agreed, "in most 
places. But my client committed his act 
upon the planet Altira Ш. Is Your 
Honor conversant with the customs of 
that. planet?" 

"No," said the judge. 

"On Altira III,“ the lawyer said, all 
orphans are trained in the art of assassi- 


cases 


nation, for the purpose of reducing the 
population of neighboring planets. By 
burning the orphanage, my client saved 
thousands, perhaps millions of innocent 
lives, Therefore he must be considered 
a hero of the people." 

“Is this true about Altira Ш?” the 
judge asked the court clerk. 

‘The clerk looked up the facts in the 
Encyclopedia of Planetary Customs and 
Folklore, and found that it was indeed 
true. 

Judge Low said, "Then I dismiss this 
сизе.” 

Mont and his lawyer left, and life 
droned peacefully on, on Oaxe П, dis- 
turbed only by an occasional lawsuit in- 
volving property lines, or the ownership 
of pigs and geese. But within a year 
Timothy Mont and his lawyer were back 
in court, with the Public Prosecutor fol- 
lowing close behind them. 

The charge again concerned the burn- 
ing of an orphanage. 

“However,” the pale lawyer pointed 
out, “guilty though my client is, the 
court must remember that the orphanage 
in question was on the planet Deegra IV. 
As is well known, all orphans on Deegra 
IV are adopted into the torturer's guild, 
for the performance of certain abomin- 
able rites abhored in all the civilized 
galaxy.” 

Finding this to be truc, Judge Low 
again dismissed the case. 

In 15 months, Timothy Mont and his 
lawyer were again in court, to stand 
trial on the same charge. 

"Dear, dear,” Judge Low said. "A re- 
former's zeal . . . Where did the crime 
take place’ 

“On Earth, 
cutor. 

"On Earth?" said the judge. 

“I fear it is true," the lawyer said 
sadly, “Му client is guilty, 


stated the Public Prose- 


“But what possible reason did he have 
this time?” 

Temporary insanity,” the lawyer said 
promptly. “And I have 12 psychiatrists 
to prove it, and request a suspended 
sentence as provided under law for such 
circumst 

The judge turned purple with wrath. 
"Timothy Mont, why did you do this?” 

Belore his lawyer could silence him, 
Mont stood up and said, "Because I like 
to bum orphanages 

That day Judge Low passed a new 
law, one which has been noted through- 
out the civilized galaxy, and studied in 
such diversified places as Droma I and 
Aos X. Low's Law states that the de 
fendant’s lawyer shall serve concurrently 
whatever sentence is imposed upon his 
client. 

Many consider this unfair, But the in-

DUPLICATION 


DMOND DRITCHE, а tall, sallow, mis- 

anthropic scientist, had been brought 
to trial by the General Products Corpora- 
tion for Downbeatedness, Group Dis- 
loyalty and Negativism, These were 
serious charges, and they were substanti- 
ated by Dritche's colleagues. The magis- 


far-out fables of the far future 


trate had no choice but to discharge 
Dritche dishonorably. The usual jail 
sentence was waived in recognition of 
his 19 years of excellent work for Gen- 
eral Products; but no other corporation 
would ever hire him. 

Dritche, sallower and more misan- 
thropic than ever, turned his back on 
General Products and its endless stream 
of automobiles, toasters, refrigerators, 
"TV sets, and the like, He retired to his 
Pennsylvania farm and experimented in 
his basement laboratory. 

He was sick of General Products and 
all it stood for, which was practically 
everything. He wanted to found a colony 
of people who thought as he did, felt as 
he did, looked like he did. His colony 
would be a utopia, and to hell with the 
rest of the cheerful, gaclget-ridden world. 

"There was only one way to achieve 
this. Dritche and his wife Anna toiled 
night and day toward the great goal. 

At last he met with success. He ad- 
justed the unwieldy device he had built 
and turned the switch, 

From the device stepped an exact 
Duplicate of Edmond Dritche. 

Dritche had invented the world's first 
Duplicator. 

He produced five hundred Dritches, 
then held a policy meeting. The five 
hundred pointed out that, for a success- 
ful colony, they needed wives. 

Dritche 1 considered his own Anna 
a perfect mate. The five hundred Dupli- 
cates agreed, of course. So Dritche pro- 
duced five hundred exact copies of her 
for the five hundred prototype Dritches, 
and the colony was founded. 

Contrary to popular prediction, the 
Dritche colony did well at first. The 
Dritches enjoyed each other's company, 
never quarreled, and never wished for 
visitors. They comprised a satisfied little 
world in themselves. India sent a dele- 
gation to study their method, and Den- 
mark wrote laws to ensure Duplication 
rights. 

But, as in all other utopian attempts, 
the seeds of disaster were present in 
simple human frailty. First, Dritche 49 
was caught in a compromising position 
with Mrs. Dritche 5. Then Dritche 37 
fell suddenly and passionately in love 
with Anna 142, This in turn led to the 


uncovering of the secret love nest built 
by Dritche 10 for Anna 498, with the 
connivance of Anna 3. 

In vain Dritche 1 pointed out that all 
were equal and identical. The erring 
couples told him he knew nothing about 
love, and refused to give up their new 
arrangements, 

"Тһе colony might still have survived. 
But then it was found that Dritche 77 
was maintaining a harem of eight 
Dritche women, Annas 12, 13, 77, 187, 
303, 336, 489 and 500. These women de- 
clared him absolutely unique, and re- 
fused to leave him. 

The end was in sight. It was hastened 
when Dritche 1's wife ran away with a 
reporter. 

The colony disbanded, and Dritches 
1, 19, 32 апа 433 died of broken hearts. 

It was probably just as well, Certainly 
the original Dritche could never һауе 
stood the shock of seeing his utopian 
Duplicator used to turn out endless 
streams of General Products automo- 
biles, toasters, refrigerators, and the like. 


LUBRICATION 


ROFESSOR вогтом, the noted philos- 

opher, left Earth to deliver a series of 
lectures at Mars University. He took 
his trusted robot valet Akka, a change 
of underwear, and eight pounds of notes. 
Aside from the crew, he was the only 
human passenger. 

Somewhere near the Point of No Re- 
turn, the ship sent out an emergency 
Message: STARBOARD JETS BLOWING SHIP 
OUT OF CONTROL. 

Тһе citizens of Earth and Mars waited 
anxiously. Another message came: EN- 
TIRE CREW KILLED BY FLASHBACK SHIP 
CRASHING IN ASTEROID BELT HELP HELP 
BOLTON. 

Rescue ships swept toward the arca 
between Mars and Jupiter where the 


fiction By ROBERT SHECKLEY 


asteroids are strewn. They had a hazy 
fix from Bolton's last message; but the 
area to be searched was tremendous, and 
the chance of rescue was very small. 

Three days later, this message was ге- 
ceived: CANNOT SURVIVE. MUCH LONGER ON 
ASTEROID 1 FACE DEATH WITH SERENE 
DIGNITY BOLTON. 

Newspapers spoke of the indomitable 
spirit of this man, a modern-day Robin- 
son Crusoe, struggling for life on an air- 
less, foodless, waterless world, his sup- 
plies running low, ready—as he had 
taught in his books and lectures — to 
meet death with serene dignity. 

‘The search was intensified. 

The last message read: ALL sUPPLIES 
GONE SMILING DEATH AWAITS МЕ BOLTON. 

Homing in on his final signal, a patrol 
boat located the asteroid and landed be- 
side the gutted ship. They found the 
charred remains of the crew. And they 
found ample supplies of food, water and 
oxygen. But strangely, there was no sign 
of Bolton. 

In the very rear of the ship they found 
Bolton's robot. 

“The professor is dead," the robot said 
through rusted jaws. “I sent the last 
messages іп name, knowing you 
wouldn't come just for me.” 

"But how did he die?” 

"With the greatest regret I killed 
him," the robot said grimly. "1 can as- 
sure you that his death was painless.” 

“But why did you kill him? And 
where is his body?" 

"The robot tried to speak, but his cor- 
roded jaws refused to function. A squirt 
of oil brought him around. 

“Lubrication,” Akka said, "is a robot's 
greatest problem. Gentlemen, have you 
ever considered the problem of render- 
ing a human body into its essential fats 
and oils without adequate equipment?” 

"The rescuers considered it with mount- 
ing horror, and the story was suppressed. 
But it was heard by the patrol ship's 
robot, who pondered it and passed it on 
to another robot, and then another. 

Only now, since the triumphant re- 
volt of the robot forces, can this inspir- 
ing saga of a robot's fight against space 
be openly told. Hail, Akka, our liberator!

“A wheel,” Ned grinned. “Started

I winced. He knows I married Margo 
for her legs. 

"Where's your husband?" 1 asked Во- 
maine. She was wearing a wedding ring. 
“At home.“ 

"Why isn't he with you?" 
ll make you a deal. Don't tell me 
ory of your life and I won't tell you 


mine. 

“We have to start somewhere.” 

She gave me a long look with those 
magnetic black eyes. Something Г hadn't 
felt lately stirred inside me. “АП right," 
she said. "Brace yourself.“ She waited 
while I took a deep breath and then 
she si I'm a doctor." 

"Oh, doctor!” It was her turn to 
wince, 1 stared at her. “An M.D?" 

“An anesthetist.” 

"You can put me to sleep any time." 
I sounded as crude as Bill. 

She gave me another straight look that 
set me tingling. “Now that the jokes are 
behind us why dent you freshen my 
drink?” 

І felt as ИТ had been slapped. Not 
оп the face—on the rear, 1 took her 
glass and shouldered my way through 
the crowded cabin three steps down to 
the galley and cracked some ісе. Vague 
aches and pains? Not Bart, Listless? De- 
pressed? Unable to concentrate? Not 
Bart. Whooeee. This girl was a handful. 
Anticipation poured through me like a 
double brandy. Will she or won’t she? 
I measured the liquor. Two things I 
was sure of: I didn’t want to get drunk 
and I wanted this woman. 

When I went back the poodle and the 
ballerina were sitting where I had left 
Romaine, The dancer's lip jutted out 
like a Ubangi’s. I looked around for 
Bil. He had wrapped his raincoat 
around my girl and dragged her out on 
deck to look at a fireboat going by. 1 
carried our glasses out there. 

“I fix you a drink and you disappear." 

"1 didn't go far." 

Bill pointed. "See the pretty fireboatz" 
He was stoned, 

"Don't you two have sense enough to 
come in out of the rain?" 

“Nag, nag, nag.” He spotted ше bal- 
lerina standing in the doorway. “Com- 
ing, mother.” 

Romaine and I stood in the gentle 
drizzle looking at each other. We touched 
glasses. There's a raindrop caught in 
your eyelash. It looks like a diamond.” 

She glanced up at my crew cut. 
“You've got a tiara.” 

“When the sun comes out I turn into 


a rainbow.” 

“Ned said you were colorful.” 

“Not me. I'm a gray flannel mouse.” 

“On a cheesecake diet.” 

“You're a little too bright. 

"I know.” A shadow passed across her 
eyes. “I have this brain, I have this face, 
I сап talk. Men hate it.” 

She moved away and the wind caught 
the raincoat, ripping it open, plastering 
her skirt against her body. I caught my 
breath and reached for her. I folded the 
coat around her, turning her in my arms. 
Her mouth tasted sweet and wet. She 
stood still against me, not fighting, not 
pushing me away — but not cooperating 
either. I still didn't know. I had, say. 
four hours to find out. 

What kind of a day was it? A day like 
any other day — as Walter Cronkhite says 
—except that she was there, We talked, 
we laughed, we drank, we played with the 
ship-to-shore telephone. We listened to 
the radio. Jake and Lena tried to dance 
but there really wasn't room in the 
cabin. And it made the poodle nervous. 
You get the picture. We went out on 
deck to watch a Coast Guard boat go by, 
and by the time we came to that big C 
painted on the rocky cliff below Colum- 
the rain had stopped and the racing 
shells were out on the smooth surface of 
the river. We shouted to the crewmen 
as they skimmed by. 

Toward evening we tuned in the sixth 
race at Belmont and I made book. Ro- 
maine had the Main Chance horse and 
won 15 dollars. 

"Your lucky day,” I said, laying the 
bills in her hand. "Mine, too — 1 hope." 
I tried to hold her glance but she low- 
ered her lashes, hiding her eyes. (As far 
I could tell that was the only thing I 
had going for me: she no longer could 
look at me. She was avoiding my gaze.) 
1 tried moving away from her, giving my 
attention to another woman, but it 
didn't seem to bother her at all, damn it. 
She laughed and chatted easily with any- 
опе who stopped beside her while 1 
stood away listening to the husky curve 
of her voice, thinking forward to the 
end of this 

Bill Rapson cornered me in the galley. 
“Take it from an old pro, Bart — you're

"Every man to his own frustrations.” 
He couldn't quite pronounce it. "Have 
it your own way, buddy boy. It's your 
kilt atilt.“ 

This was shortly before he fell over- 
hoard. It is not true that I pushed him. 

As the boat neared shore we all began 
arguing about where we would go for 


dinner after we docked but it turned out 
Ned already had reservations at the Pilot 
Club, We checked the poodle and then 
all of us crowded around one table in 
the middle of the room where I seated 
Romaine next to me. I pushed the 
menu away. "How about a steak for 
two?" 

Her eyes twinkled like dark stars. 
"Don't you think that's kind of inti- 
mate?” 

"I don't mind your laughing at me as 
long as you keep looking at me." 

“I had the impression you wanted ше 
to take you seriously. 

“Just take ше. Any way at all.” 

She gave me а keen look, "You have 
a need?" 

“Yes, doctor.” I put my arm around 
the soft blue sweater. "So have you— 
or you wouldn't be here." She flinched. 
"What about this big specch you're mak- 
ing at the Waldorf?” 

"It's very serious. The use of tranquil- 
izers in childbirth." 

1 couldn't tell you whether the steak 
was rare or well or whether I ate any- 
thing at all. I was glad the crowd was 
noisy because 1 needed time to think. Т 
was beginning to get to this woman. She 
was no casual lay. I had to make the 
male decision; how much, how soon. I 
tried to project myself beyond tonight. 
Why did I want her so much? And 
worse, why was I asking myself why? Т

Romaine frowned at him, “Don't 
promise him anything I haven't.” 

The party began to break up. Jake

Bill passed out on the ballerina's 
shoulder. Now she had two dogs.

ART OF TRAVEL 


side road or follow a mountain lane just 
for the hell of it—then driving in Europe 
should be right for you. 

First, you'll have to decide whether to 
rent, lease, buy then sell back, buy a 
European car outright then ship it home, 
or ship your own car over for use there. 
Best of all: rental of a chauffeured lim- 
ousine. Time and money are, as usual, 
the main keys to your decision. As a 
general rule, you'll find that it will pay 
to rent a car for periods of less than four 
to six weeks and to buy one on a guar- 
anteed repurchase plan if you need it 
longer. Your deposit is 5100-5300 on а 
rental car, and the purchase price of a 
new car runs from $850 on the cheapest 
Fiat and $1000 for the least expensive 
Citroën or British Ford, to 53000 for a 
Mercedes 220 or a Porsche convertible 
and 54800 for a ста Flaminia, This 
purchase price is often required as your 
“deposit” on a repurchase plan. In 
round figures, and all included, it'll cost 
you about $400 to rent and run an ayer- 
age European саг on a six-week tour, 
and about $460 if you buy the car then 
sell it back after six weeks. That $60 
differential (which is about the cost of 
documents on the car you buy) dwindles 
the longer you stay abroad and use the 
car you've bought. For instance, for 
periods of over 80 days a Citroën 2CV 
rents for $7 a day as against $5 а day for 
depreciation and insurance over two 
months on a repurchase plan. But if you 
hold the car for four months before sell- 
ing it back, the daily rate for deprecia- 
tion and insurance will be down to 
around $2.70. And you won't even have 
to pay that if you buy the car. So, if 
you've even half a mind to buy a c 
abroad, use the repurchase plan—no 
matter how short а time you're staying— 
to try one out without obligation. If you 
е it, you'll have paid no rental on the 
and can have it wrapped up and 
shipped home for about 8120-5150 on 
smaller cars sent from England to the 
East Coast, $300 for larger cars shipped 
from Germany to New York. U.S. cus- 
toms duty is 814% of the car's value as a 
used car when you bring it in. 

When it comes to buying a car over- 
seas, some foreign-car dealers in the U.S. 
will take your old car as a trade-in and 
arrange financing on the new one. If 
you are definitely in the market for a 
foreign car and are also planning a 
European vacation, buying over there 
can be a shrewd move. You can, in fact, 
get your new car plus a European vaca- 
tion for less than the price of the low- 
cost American cars and your transatlantic 
fare! And you'll do even better as you 
draw the parallel on between higher- 
priced cars at home and abroad. If you're 
interested, then talk it through with your 
travel agent and get the fully detailed

Probably your very first purchase for 
your trip should be a passportsize wal-

a set of passport photos, including a [ew 
extras to take along in case of emergency 
requirements while you're abroad. You'll 
want a few bilingual pocket dictionaries 
to clarify your sign language wherever 
you're going, and a copy of the Guide 
Michelin we mentioned, that superb 
formant on the most desirable hotels 
and delectable eating spots. And a cur- 
rency converter. 

The bulk of your funds, of course, will 
be in traveler's checks. (This, inciden- 
tally, will probably make you a customer 
of the American Express Со, and Am. 
exco grandly responds by forwarding or 
holding mail for you as you gad about

your plans еп route, a postcard keeps 
your correspondence a-coming along

perfect legality by looking into the rates 
of exchange of the various countries you 
plan to visit, even before you leave the 
U.S. Many times, converting your long 
green here may give you а more favor- 
able rate of exchange than you'll en- 
counter abroad. Conversely, when chang- 
ing back to American money, do it 
abroad, not here. But don't forget to 
hold out enough of the foreign currency 
to cover tips, cabs, and such, on the way 
back to the ship or plane. 

Another point to remember is that 
the v s of European electrical sys- 
tems may bring you up against direct 
current or a 220-volt line just at that 
contented moment when you're about to 
ready yourself for a date by plugging in

about tips?

is the guy to place you happily in the

Elsewhere on board ship. you must 
scatter your tips with the airy grace of

tenders in the lounge are tipped when 
you pay your tab, as you might in any 
Madison Avenue pub. Mind readers and 
optimists in the realm of human nature 
have been known to advance — 
just to put the crew at rest on that vital 
point as to whether you are a tightwad 
or a soft mark — and thus forestall any 
posible desertion in favor of heavy 
promisers on the next deck. But gen- 
erally you tip on the last night out, or, 
on cruises, somewhere along the half- 
way mark. 

Next, what to take? 

On shipboard, you can obviously af- 
ford to carry more changes than if flying, 
what with weight limits and all. But 
with some of the big ship lines tieing 
in with airlines to fly you home (and de- 
livering your excess luggage via the sea 
route), not to mention side trips you'll 
want to make by air, you'll do well to 
avoid any elephantsize trunks, and di- 
vide your things among a few rugged 
suitcases and a 12 x 18 x 26 job which 
fits neatly into Continental train and 
plane luggage racks. Meanwhile, your 
main gear is checked with your travel 
representative or back at the hotel. Your 
luggage should be free of fancy builtin 
fittings. Open space is what you'll need 
most, and a good lock. The lock isn't 
primarily for pilfering protection — a 
good whack from another bag will often 
snap yours open, and you wouldn't want 
this to happen somewhere between the 
ship and the dock. 

If you're going on a cruise, you can 
shoot the works on the amount of cloth- 
ing you take long, and indulge in extra 
luxuries like a second set of evening 
clothes, just in case. But if you're head- 
ing for Europe and beyond, you'll want 
to keep the total to а spare but ade- 
quate minimum. 

There's some debate about dressing 
for dinner on shipboard. On the first 
night out, of course, nobody does. On 
the last night out, practically everybody 
does. In between, it's up to you, and con- 
sidering that you're one of the roving 
kind — eyes included — why not be at 
your best? Some others will dress every 
night, particularly on the big ships, and 
the best bet for you is to select evening 
clothes that suggest elegance and in- 
formality all at once. Black or midnight.

THE WINE DEALER’S WIFE 


A newly translated tale from the Contes а Venus of Jacques Redelsperger 


Ribald Classic 


H RI METULET, а wholesale wine 

dealer, had the most charming wife 
in Paris. When she walked down the 
Champs-Elysées women stared in obvi- 
ous envy at her face and figure, In social 
gatherings people enjoyed her sparkling 
wit. Monsieur Métulet watched his wife 
closely, and when he saw her even talk 
to another man there were angry scenes 
in which he accused her of infidelity. “If 
that’s the way he is going to be,” she said 
to herself, “I'll try to act in such a way 
as to merit his accusation.” 

In short, instead of one lover, she took 
two, which was only logical under the 
circumstances. And it was a problem 
to keep these two men from running 
into each other and at the same time 
keep her husband from finding out 
about the arrangement. One of the 
lovers was a student, the other a dashing 
captain of the guards. The young man 
was not stupid, and he soon found out 
about his military opponent, but he said 
to himself philosoph: T 
him for his splendid u 
me for myself." 

One day, when the husband was sup- 
posed to be out of town, Madame 
Métulet gave the student a rendezyous 
for the morning while the captain was 


"Hide under the bed!" cried the lady. 


to have the afternoon. ‘The young man 
had been in bed with her for over an 
hour; the cock had crowed three times, 
and they were resting gently on their 
laurels, when suddenly they heard a 
sound of boots, a jangle of spurs, and 
the rattle of a sword. 

Heavens,” exclaimed the woman, 
"s the army! Here, grab your clothes 
and hide under the bed." 

She ran to open the door. "Why, 
Captain, I was not expecting you until 
this afternoon. I wanted to be sure 
Monsieur was leaving town as he said. 
You know how jealous husbands are.” 

The captain went to the window to 
be sure the coast was clear. Just at that 
moment he saw Monsieur Métulet walk- 
ing rapidly across the square toward the 
house. "You were right" he gasped. 
"There he is. He suspects something, 
and he is coming here to kill me. What 
are we poing to do?" 

Madame Métulet thought for a sec- 
ond. "Lets not lose our heads. We 
must find a reason to explain why you 
are here ... I have it. Draw your sword. 
When my husband enters the door, rush 
out shouting at the top of your voice, 
“ГИ catch him yet! I'll catch him yet!" 
And leave the rest to me.“ 


Almost knocked down by the captain 
as he came in the door, the indignant 
husband asked his wife, "Who was that 
madman who just ran out of here?" 

t happened this way," explained the 
wife calmly. "About ten minutes ago, a 
young man dressed only in his under- 
wear and holding his clothes in his arms 
opened the door without knocking and 
came rushing into the house. I was 
frightened to see an almost naked man, 
but he didn’t give me time to think. 
Madame, hide me quick! An irate 
officer has just surprised me with his 
wife, and he is following me with drawn 
sword. If he finds me I am а dead тап." 
1 hastily pushed the young fellow under 
the bed, and no sooner was he hidden 
there than the jealous husband rushed 
through the door.. He looked all around 
without even asking permission, but 
fortunately did not look under the bed. 
Then he left just as you came 

“You have done well, my dear. You 
have saved his life.” He kneeled down 
and looked under the bed. “You may 
come out now, young man,” he said. 
“The officer has left.”

VIVA PIZZA! 


the purpose of demonstrating the way 
in which he intends to treat your head. 

From transplanted Italians in this 
country you'll hear all kinds of dicta on 
how you can learn the art of pizza bak- 
ing. Older Italian women fulminate 
against such spurious equipment as 
or electric stoves. You can't possibly 
make a real pizza, they insist, unless you 
have a wood-burning oven built along- 
side an open hearth. Some professional 
pizza makers, too, tend to sneer at any 
man who hasn't spent several decades 
learning arcane skills from his Sicilian 
great-grandfather. These injunctions, all 
delivered with a certain ruddy charm, 
are, in truth, so much superstition. 

Actually you need only a pigeonhole 
of a kitchen to make your own pizzas. 
And you'll make great pizza provided 
you start out with the correct original 
conception, namely, that the three parts 
of the pizza — the crisp dough, the filling 
and the cheeses (plural) — must all be 
built into a tantalizing plumpness. 

As far as the dough is concerned, 
don't attempt to compete with the grand- 
stand play bakers make in the windows 
of pizzerias. You don't have to learn the 
difficult and senseless skill of swinging 
the dough around your fist, tossing it 
into outer space, and stretching it as

thin as a balloon. As a matter of fact 
the dough will be better if it isn't 
stretched, but slowly and gently pressed 
with your finger tips after they've been 
dipped lightly in olive oil. If you're a 
novice, don’t get perturbed should the 
recipe call for yeast. There are probably 
less failures in baked goods made with 
yeast than in those that use baking 
powder. Simply remember that yeast is 
inactive when cold or dry, that it grows 
(causes the dough to rise) when it's dis- 
solved in warm water, and that it stops 
working when exposed to a great heat 
(when the pizza is baked). 

Making the simple bread dough that's 
used for pizza is so easy that it can usu 
ally be mastered on the first try, but if 
you're uneasy about making your own 
dough, there are a number of easy alter- 
natives. You can sometimes buy a piece 
of dough from a baker or pizzeria owner. 
You can use one of the packaged yeast 
dough mixes designed for making rolls. 
Or you can buy a pizza mix which con- 
tains not only the exact ingredients for 
making the dough but also the pizza 
sauce and grated cheese. 

One of the best pizza sauces is the 
canned marinara tended. pri- 
marily for spaghetti dishes. Canned 
pizza sauces are sometimes a little watery; 


sauce

you may have to add a tablespoon or 
iwo of tomato paste to give them the 
necessary body. When the recipe calls 
for canned tomatocs in place of a sauce, 
be sure to get the best grade of Italian 
plum tomato — called pomodiro, or 
apple of gold. This is the firm kind that 
you can split in two with your fingers, 
then flip the seeds aside. In adding other 
solid ingredients to the filling you can ad 
lib indefinitely: Use prepared meat balls, 
the hard sausages called pepperoni, pros- 
ciutto ham, green peppers, anchovies, са 
pers, sardines, truffles, chicken livers 
or any other cooked meat, seafood or 
vegetable 

The wick of blending a number of 
cheeses into one dish is one of the sure 
signs that a pizza man really knows his 
Italian culinary tradition. In making a 
fine lasagna, for instance, a skilled chef 
will sometimes include five or six differ- 
ent kinds of cheese. And while a pizza 
isn't regarded primarily as a cheese dish, 
the blending of cheeses helps give the 
pizza its billowy deliciousness. Cheese 
mollifies the salty anchovies, soothes the 
garlic and tempers the tomatoes. If you 
can't buy а variety of Italian cheeses in 
your neighborhood, some effective sub- 
stitutions can be made. In place of bel 
paese or mozzarella use port du salut or 
munster or brick cheese. In place of 
provolone use smoked cheddar. For the

sweet and more pungent than parmesan 
is the romano. These cheeses may also 
be blended. 

One factor that may help explain the 


ever-growing popularity of pizza іп 
America is the seductive fragrance of 
the little dried green leaf, oregano. 


which is found in almost every pizz 
and which was almost unknown in the 
United States until the middle Thirties 
Now oregano can be found on almost 
every store shelf. The native American 
herb of the same family, sweet marjoram, 
hardly competes with the slightly bitter, 
slightly sweet, imported oregano, the 
one thing which asserts that a pizza 
really is a pizza. The ancient Romans 
believed that the herb contained the 
touch of the fingers of Venus herself, and 
it's used in every pizza recipe except 
pizza rustica, It may appear in the pizza 
sauce or atop the filling 

The length of the recipe for pizza 
dough which follows may seem forbid- 
ding. But the actual working time is 
brief, if you don't count the period 
while the dough is rising. 


PIZZA DOUGH 
(For one 9-inch pie) 

Sift together 114 cups all-purpose Hour 

(previously sifted and measured), 1% tea- 


spoon salt and 14 teaspoon ground white 
pepper. Dissolve 1% cake yeast ог Lë 
packet dry yeast in И cup lukewarm 
water. Melt 2 tablespoons lard over a low 
Нате. In a gencroussize mixing bowl 
combine 4 cup milk, the dissolved yeast 
and the lard. Add V4 cup of the sifted 
flour, and beat very smooth with a wire 
whip. Gradually add the balance of the 
flour, mixing with a kitchen spoon until 
a dough is formed. You'll need a little 
extra muscle power here. "The dough 
should be somewhat moist. In order to 
make it dry enough to handle, sprinkle 
lightly with flour. Form the dough into a 
ball and place it on a floured board. 
Knead it; that is, fold the dough toward 
you with your finger tips, and then press 
down and away with the heels of your 
hands. Turn the dough one quarter 
tum after each pressing in order to 
keep it compact. If the dough sticks to 
the board, scrape the board, then dust 
it lightly with flour, using as little flour 
as possible, Knead the dough for 8 to 4 
minutes, then place it in а lightly 
greased bowl. Cover the bowl with a 
plate or a damp cloth and put it in a 
warm place, about 90°, until the dough 
doubles in bulk. Use any warm spot, 
alongside a radiator, near a furnace, ctc. 
Or, if no such warm place is accessible, 
place the bowl over a pan of warm 
water at about 90°. Since the water will 


not maintain this temperature for the 
entire rising period, you may haye to 
change it several times. Of course, оп а 
very warm summer day, the dough will 
rise at ordinary room temperature. 
After the dough has doubled in bulk, 
punch it down. If you're not going to 
use it immediately, you should brush it 
lightly with oil, wrap it in wax paper, 
and refrigerate it. It may be stored sev- 
eral days in the refrigerator. 

After punching the dough down, 
place it on a floured board and let it rest 
10 to 15 minutes. During this time it 
will become more supple and easier to 
handle. Place the dough in a greased 9- 
inch ріс рап. Dip the finger tips in olive 
ой, and press the dough out toward the 
rim of the pan, then around the rim so 
that it forms a raised edge that will hold 
the filling. A large pizza pan or large 
griddle pan requires а double batch of 
dough. 


PREPARED PIZZA MIXES 


These mixes, most of which are sur 
prisingly good, will save you the labor 
of measuring your own ingredients. But 
after mixing the dough, the procedure 
of kneading the dough, letting it rise 
and shaping it will be the same as out 
lined above. Usually the directions on 
the package will indicate that there is 
enough dough for three 9-inch pizzas.

Does your 
stereo have 
three sounds № 


New stereo owners often hear a 
third sound: ugly turntable rum- 
ble. Here's why: 

Standard record players were 
designed so that undesirable vi- 
bration was aimed in a vertical 
direction. That's because in mono- 
phonic this up-and-down motion 
is O.K. Butinstereo, vertical buck- 
ing makes your records sound as 
if they had acid indigestion. 

What to do? You could pur- 
chase a very expensive turntable, 
Or, for a modest sum, you can get 
а Sonotone “ВТ” ceramic stereo 
cartridge. It has an exclusive уег- 
tical rumble suppressor...acts like 
the springs on your car to absorb 
vertical motion...and greatly re- 
duce turntable noise. 

You'll hear the difference when 
you get Sonotone and prices of 
Sonotone stereo cartridges start 
at only $6.45 (including mounting 
brackets).

bub of arrival, with all the passengers 
on deck looking at the Statue of Li 
and the skyline, it is a simple 1 
for Rippler to enter Thorne’s stateroom 
unperceived. With him he has one of 
the round boxes of “face powder” from 
the vanity case. This he insinuates into 
one of Thorne's suitcases, under the 
dirty shirts. He figures that this act is 


costing him about $10,000, and — so 
vengeful is his nature — he figures it is 
worth every penny. Thorne is wi 


known as an adventurer and spe 
he will have а hard time explaini 
possession of so much heroin; he will, 
if things work out right, have much 
leisure time to reflect on the folly of 
double-crossing Jack the Ripper, who 
now returns to his cabin and rearranges 
the contents of the vanity case to con- 
ceal the missing item. 

There is the usual chaos on the dock 
as the luggage is unloaded and arranged 
alphabetically on the long counter for 
customs inspection, During this time 
Rippler makes a phone call 10 the 
Customs Office on the pier, He says, 
when he has the Chief Inspector on the 
line, “First-class passenger  Artemus 
Thorne is smuggling in a big load of 
heroin, disguised as face powder. Thorne. 
Thorne.” 

“Who are you?” 
asks. 

“A friend of the law,” says Jack the 
Ripper, and hangs up. Then he strolls 
down to the Ts to see what happens. It 
happens at once: the Thornes get al 
most the fastest servicing ever received 
by a passenger on an incoming liner. A 
gaggle of officials swoops in and begins 

stematie perscrutation of their bag- 
А crowd gathers to watch, so 
fervid is their zeal. Rippler haunts its 
fringe, unobserved. 

"What is the meaning of 0 
perate visitation?” Thorne asks. 

"Quiet, Mac," a narcotics agent 
wels, peering into Thorne's sporr 
"Where you got it hid?” 

Within a minute or so they find the 
box of powder in its fancy cellophane 
They place it triumphantly on the 
counter. "What is in this container?” 
the Chief Inspector asks. 

"I have no idea,” Thorne replies.

it was of him, when he made his spot

(continued from page 25) 
the elements which Monk leaves mod- 
estly unmentioned are talent and a point 
of view. 

Monk has a talent for picking talent. 
Alumni of his d aris are household 
words like Ronny Graham and Dody 
Goodman, and the people in his present 
revue, a brouhaha in 1 ts called Demi- 
Dozen, are extremely able performers 
named Jean Arnold, Сей Cabot, 
Connell, Jack Fletcher, George Hall and 
Gerry Matthews. 

Besides ability and variety, the other 
commodity purveyed by these revuers 
and their writers is satire, that element 
which Gcorge S. Kaufman once defined 
as “what closes on Saturday night." Up- 
stairs at the. Downstairs, however, this 
proverbial Saturday has become a per 
petual tomorrow that never arrives. In 
an age like ours, when the mass media 
don't dare portray any member of so 
ciety as incompetent for fear his lobby 
and/or union will storm the studios and 
ihrow rocks at the sponsor, whatever 
Monk's minions do dare is diverting, re- 
freshing, and usually amusing. 

Picture, if you are able, a sophisticated 
song of the Noel Coward school, рге 
sented as à comic strip by Mad maga- 
zinc. You may have to slip spectacles 
over your mind's eye to make the effort, 
but if you're successful you'll have a 
fairly accurate vision of the Monkian 
method. One song subjected to this 
Monkish business appeared in the last 
revue, Take Five, and was called The 
Pro Musica Antiqua: 

What а fool 1 was to go, but how 

could 1 nonny nonny know. 

Well he took me up to his flat, as 

he had said, 

ind he locked the door and he sat 

on his great double bed. 

Ind he looked at me with eyes that 

lie, 

ind 1 knew when I saw that look 

in his eye — 

That he had no recordings of Des 

Pris and Dufay, 

From the Pro Musica 


Antiqua. 

Well there I stood, I was rooted in 

my place, 

1s I viewed with dread my deceitful 

lover's face. 

For 1 knew from the lovesick look 

in his eye 

He could lay me low with a single 

sigh. 

Well he laid me low and he laid 

me high,

Perhaps the most successful piece in 
the current show is one called Confer-

Llama 


sweater... 
none better! 


No spoofing, here's а full-fashioned, hand 
knit sweater that does as much for a man 
as а woman (Almost). Because of its amaz- 
ing thermostatic qualities, Llama wool is 
known to retain body warmth even at 
—30* in the frigid Andes . . . to seal 
out heat on the torrid 130° plains of 
Peru, keeping our Llama constantly comfy. 
Now humans, too, may enjoy this com- 
fort. The hornless hair structure sheds 
dirt, snow, water . . . dries in a trice 
(if you have one) Rugged, yes, but cash- 
mere-soft to the touch (watch it, buster). 
Natural colors (not dyed) never wash out. 
Grey, brown, beige, black, charcoal. If 
you're allergic to ordinary wool, the Llama 
sweater is your salvation. Crew or vee 
neck, 36 to 44, Give alternate color. 
BONUS! Order two (one for your playmate) 
and receive matching Llama wool socks 
FREE for each sweater! State size.

a, he graduated from the Cincinnati 
conservatory of Music an accomplished 
pianist and moved to New York, where 
he got а job as accompanist to a then- 
unknown singer named Dorothy Lamour 
and played many a nightclub. A stint 
abroad followed; he pianoed in a gaggle 
of Parisian and South-of-France boites, 
until he met and was hired by Herbert 
oby, owner of Paris’ Le Ruban Bleu. 
When Jacoby decided to open a New 
York counterpart of his Paris club, Monk 
took over as impresario. He held the 
job for 15 years, either discovering or 
adding luster to such talent as Graham, 
Imogene Coca, Liberace, Maurice Rocco, 
Thelma Carpenter, Lisa Kirk, Jonathan 
Winters, The Four Lads and Professor 
Irwin Corey. 

When Monk was struck by his idea 
for integrated cabaret, he decided he'd 
need a special kind of place to test it. 
He found it in a cellar on Gth Avenue: 

Ine place was ghastly. The stage was 
in the worst possible spot — right in the 


gs even cozier, the building 
was condemned. Everything about the 
club was ridiculous, including the laugh: 
ably small rent, so I decided to take it.” 

When a combination of three hit 
shows and a wrecking company figura. 
tively and literally brought down the 
house, Monk moved to his present quar- 
ters, where he expects a long, uninter- 
vupted st 

Despite his Caro! origin, Monk 
prefers to speak with a heavy English 
accent, trim mustache, and is 
in every sense of the word a model of 
ible grooming and Continental 
since he was one of the six top 
male models in this country last year. 
His elegant person has highlighted ad- 
vertisements for such products as Kings 
Ransom Scotch, Jaguar automobiles and 
Burberry Clothes. Now that his rooms 
have become so successful, however, he 
seldom models more than four hours a 
week, 

An intended numerical progression is 
evident іп the titles of Monk's shows. 
The first was Four Below; it was lol- 
lowed by Son of Four Below; Take Five 
s next; and Demi-Dozen is current. 
Iwo of the shows are available from 
Offbeat Records: Take Five and Demi 
Dozen (Playboy After Hours, Sept. 758 
and March 759). Turning to the future, 
Monk muses: 

“Some day, when Demi-Dozen runs its 
, perhaps we'll follow up with 
Lucky Seven, then maybe Eight for To 
night . . . who knows?" 

Who, indeed, knows? From the en- 
thusiasm they've already displayed, New 
Yorkers would obviously be happy to sce 
the Monk and his madcaps last long 
enough to present a show called Monk's

JET WEEKEND 


(continued from page 38) 


choice of seven entrees prepared at Мах- 
im's, including pheasant and lobster. 
The seven-hour air time from New 
York to Paris is a breeze in a plane like 
almost a complete absence 
ion — and your New York to 
Paris round-trip ticket allows you а stop- 
over in London on the way back. 

The wardrobe you'll need for a јесаре 
weekend — for a date іп Paris 
night, another in London on Saturday — 
isn't too different from what you'd take 
on a longer junket. One dark and onc 
light suit form the basis of a gentleman's 
wardrobe regardless of his destination. A 
sports jacket, a pair of slacks and a din- 
ner jacket round it out perfectly. In 
selecting which suits to take, remember 
that England and France іп the spring 
can be pretty cool at night and a wool 
worsted with a vest will be the most 
comfortable, Formal clothes should be 
black for spring, for although the lighter 
toned jackets are recommended іп the 
U.S., they still are not completely a 
ceptable abroad. Your wash-and-wear, 
Dacron-and-cotton spread-collar shirt can 
be converted to ап evening shirt by just 
adding your black tie and formal cuff 
links. 

For convenience, it is possible to limit 
your shoes to two pairs and a pair of 
folding fabric bedroom slippers. One, 
the pair you wear as you board the plane; 
is a black shoe that can do double duty 
for informal as well as formal occasions. 
The other should be a completely сот 
fortable pair of sport shoes of а soft 
leather that makes for с king and 
simple packing. No matter if you have 
been abroad many times or if the jet 
weekend is your first trip, a certain 
amount of sightseeing and shopping 
(which always means more walking than 
usual) is unavoidable, Slippers, too, are 
indispensable. Choose a pair that fold 
and fit into a compact case, They're 
space saving, too, for they'll double as 
bedroom slippers in your hotel room 
and for foot case on your flight. Inside 
the shoes you extra handker- 
chiefs, socks and ties. The ties will not 
wrinkle if stretched. taut and tightly 
rolled. Not that wrinkling of clothes is 
too serious а problem оп a jet overseas

When this young lady curls her voice around 
a ballad about unrequited love (а dozen іп 
this album) you know there's a good deal 
more to what you're hearing than just pop 
singing. Almost anybody can keep a tune 
and remember words, Gloria Wood sings 
with feeling. She puts more into a song— 
and you get more out of it.

blue will do for the jacket, but at this 
season you might decide on wine or 
gold: these tones are mixed deeply with 
black in the fabric so that the ovcrall 
effect is very subdued. Your tie and cum- 
merbund will match the jacket; the trou- 
sers are always black or midnight blue. 

You can relax a little on dress shirts. 
Plain whites will do, soft collar attached. 
You'll need about three, and perhaps 
one of them might have a ruffled front. 
After that you go down the line with: 
one dark suit, onc light; one jacket and 
ks outfit you carry aboard on your 
topcoat and/or raincoat; robe 
d slippers; wear a hat going aboard 
4 pack a couple of caps; assorted shoes 
for dress, and for loafing; plenty of 
shirts and sport shirts, ties, socks, hand- 
kerchiefs, jewelry, belts (don't overlook 
evening braces), gloves, toiletries, unde 
wear, sunglasses, etc. 

If you're flying, your wardrobe has to 
hit the weight limit to the ounce, or 
you'll be parlaying simple multiplica 
to higher mathematics. Your 
ternational first-class ticket permits 66 
pounds, but local flights abroad and 
transatlantic tourist tickets limit you to 
44, so it may be wiser to count on that 
from the beginning. 

Here are a few tips on how you may 
be weighed and still not found wanting. 

You sally forth armed to the teeth 
like а commando — since your own 
framework and what's on it as you board 
the plane are counted in their load but 
not in your 44 pounds. So wcar jacket 
and slacks, lightweight sweater, cap or 
crushable felt hat. Your lightweight top- 
coat or raincoat is on your arm; camera 
and binoculars are slung over your 
shoulder. 

For the rest, this was actually put on 
a scale, and made it: one lightweight 
suit, light shade; second suit, dark; an- 
other sports jacket, and slacks; 2 sport 
shirts; $ white shirts; 1 blue or gray 
shirt; 4 pairs shorts; 6 ties; 12 handker- 
Chiefs; 6 pairs socks; 2 pairs pajamas; 1 
robe; 2 belts; shaving kit, toiletries, etc.; 
| pair swimming trunks; clothes brush;

JUNG'S Distributors, 720 N. Oth, Sheboygan, 


ered to you on your plane. 

Now, lets assume that you're flying 
independent, pre- 
ranged tour which involves a train or 
plane for long Continental hauls, and 
a car at resorts or for short scenic runs, 
with a minimum of conducted sight- 
secing arranged ahead of time at major 
cities, and ample Пее time in each. 
You're buying most of the transportation 
and much of your European currency 
and making most of the arrangements 
through your agent well ahcad of time 
in the States, But our original premise 
of artful travel involves having the local 
version of a good time wherever you are. 
You'll obviously make your own selec- 
tions as you plan your trip, but here are 
a [ew possibilities: 

Hotels — your base of operations is 
vital not only as a good address or for 
memorable luxury, but also because the 
guidance the concierge will give you will 
be keyed to the level of the people using 
that hotel. Rely өп him for everything. 
Tip him every time you pay cash, other- 
wise when he presents his bill for out- 
lays on your behalf at the end of your 
stay. There are certain hotels of great 
class you should surely use if you're any- 
where near them: Claridges in London, 
the Royal Danicli in Venice (but ask for 
the old wing), the Ritz in Paris, atmos- 
pheric Sachers in Vienna, the Hotel 
de la Cloche at Dijon, the superluxuri- 
ous Aviz in Lisbon (but it's small, an ex: 
castle with only 26 rooms, so book. way 
way-way ahead) and, among the resorts, 
the Hotel de Paris at Monte Carlo, the 


Negresco at Nice, the Alhamar near 
Malaga, the Cap at Cap d'Antibes, the 
Berghaus on top of the Jungfrau in 


Switzerland, Formentor on Mallorca, the 
Reine ас Vevey, and the San 
nico at Taormi 

Feminine companionship is your next 
most important consideration. The. 
streets and the bars and nightclubs and 
even the hotel concierge can turn up 
professionals everywhere; the choice is 
yours. If you prefer to hunt up your 
own, then the situation varies geograph- 
ically from the much-touted freedom of 
Scandinavian girls (notably in Denmark) 
to the “scorched carth ation in 
Spain, Italy and Portugal. There are ско 
feminine categories that do not fit into 
any geographical pattern: one is the 
genuinely upper-class type (so that any 
introductions you сап wangle from 
friends home are worth more than 
gold; otherwise, try your luck at golf or 
tennis clubs) and American girls, who're 
everywhere on the Continent in sum. 
mer. The best source of these last are 
the American Express offices, where they 
come to get mail, exchange traveler's 
checks, buy tours, сс. In England and 
France, and particularly in France, you 
usually have to “belong” before you с 
get to first base for a try at second; 
you'll belong fastest in a group (know

any American students, maybe а couple 
of artists?) or in a sport situation (for 
instance, at the beach or a ski resort or 
at country clubs). The casual pickup on 
è terrace in France is а rare possi- 
bility: she’s either a pro, or she's waitin 
for her husband. In Portugal, Spain and 
Italy, there are only two К

that’s that. Again the exceptions are the

Food — since you'll spend more time 
cating than on almost any other single 
activity in Europe, you might as well 
polish up on ordering full-fledged ти 
in a strange tongue. You'll find English 
speaking maitre de's at all the big hotels 
and great restaurants. Eat there 
times to get the of local menus and. 
dining habits; but don't ignore the 
smaller. places, which are fun and abo 
have fine food. There are various ways 
around the problem of whatinhell’s Salz 
burger Коен or Vlaamsche Water 
zoic — which happen to be an Austrian 
soufllé and a Belgian chicken stew, re 
spectively. One around this dilli 
culty is to go in and firmly order the 
specialty of the house, This can be tricky, 
of course, when the waiter shrugs and 
says in a rapid local patois something to 
the effect that, "We don't got по special- 
ties here." Another fairly effective alter 
native is to decide in general terms what 
you want before going in — for instance, 
thick soup, poached fish, veal, fruit and 
cheese, It’s no trick to learn these gen: 
eral terms and leave the particular form 
of the soup. fish, meat to the imagina- 
tion of the waiter. (You indicate that it's 
up to him by shrugging energetically.) 

If you savor the joys of wine, then by 
all means do like everybody else and ask 
for a carafe (it's almost an international 
word) of the rants own wine, red 
or white, unless you prefer to go into a 
huddle over vintages and chateaus. with 
the sommelier, He сап teach you quite 
а bit, incidentally, without. embarrass- 
ment, if you'll just ask him to recom 
mend something and then ask, "Why?" 

Here are some of the meals you should 
try at least once, and restaurants where 
you should sample them: Rehrücken 
(venison) and thin schinken. (pan. 
cakes with cottage cheese stulling) at the 
14th Century Goldener Hirsch in Salz- 
burg, pastries at Demel in Vienna, an. 
guilles au vert, which translates as baby

Brussels, every variety of piled-high open

Hofbriuhaus beerhall, avgolemono (lem-

Sports — you don't have to go to the 
races to bet in England, "turf. account

town. But you're wiser to watch the 
smart money on the parimutucl boards — 
at Autcuil and. Longchamps during thc 
mid-June Grande Demaine near Paris 
or near Deauville in mid-August: at the 
June Derby and Ascot meetings near 
London and at Goodwood in July and 
York in August. Golf, of course, can be 
blamed on the Scots, so you should dig 
out à divot or two at St. Andrews, Car- 
noustic and Мәнісі in Scotland. Other 
great European courses include these at 
Spa, Le Zoute and Antwerp 
at Morfontaine and Chantilly in France, 
Krefeld and Hamburg in Germany, The 
Hague and Zandvoort in Holland, Milan 
in Taly, Stockholm in Sweden and Ма

ple stick to the Mediterranean and for 
the most part do и from oftshore islands 
like France's Porquerolles, Port Cros and 
the Levant (a major nudist center, in- 
cidentally) — and off Italy, Elba and 
Capraia and Pianosa, Capri and Isch 
Vonza on a level with Rome, the Acolian 
ds near Sicily. Undeveloped but 
loaded with potential are the Greek 
Mediterranean Islands, notably Mykonos 
Santorin, also Ithaca, Cefalonia, 
Skindiving is great and 
barely developed off Jugostavia’s Dal 
Coast where the water is warm 
and undisturbed, off the southern coast 
of Spain and Portugal, and off Spain's
