Lighter Side
Rep. Blanton Got
Fie - On - You Also
By DICK WEST
United Press International
WASHINGTON (UPI) —Dur
ing the pillorying of Adam
Clayton Powell last week, I
heard It mentioned that no
House member had been
censured since former Rep.
Thomas L. Blanton was given
the fle-on-you treatment in 1921
for using profanity.
Bing-bongl That name rang a
bell.
Why, I said to myself, that
must have been “old Tawn”
Blanton, who used to be the
SKI SECOND
VIKERSUN, Norway (UPI) —
Reinhold Bachler, a 22-year-old
Austrian, soared 505.3 feet,
three inches Sunday to set a
new world ski Jumping record
while winning an international
meet.
The young Jumper broke the
old record of 492 feet, two
inches set earlier this season by
Lars Grinl of Norway at
Obersdorf, Germany.
10
Congressman from my home
district in Texas back when I
was a kid.
Many’s the time I stood In a
pool of tobacco juice on the
sidewalk In front of the
Farmers & Merchants National
Bank in Merkel and heard "old
Tawm” deliver a campaign
oration from atop a cotton bale.
But I didn’t recall the
censuring Incident. Which fi
gures. I was only 10 months old
at the time.
Nor did I remember Blanton
as being particularly the
cussing type, the way a lot of
politicians were in those days.
Which made me wonder how he
happened to get called on the
carpet for profanity.
Blanket Blank Blanton
The upshot was that I dug up
a copy of the 1921 Congressional
record to see what It was
Blanton had said that so
shocked his colleagues.
I cQuldn’t find out, but it must
have been a truly awesome and
horrifying oath.
“Grossly indecent and ob
scene,” one congressman called
it. "Filthy, profane, blasphe-
raous and obscene," said
another. “The vilest thing any
Congressman ever saw in
print,” gasped a third.
Two days after it appeared In
a speech that Blanton had
printed In the Congressional
record, the House voted unani
mously to have the entire
speech forever banished from
the eyes of man.
Furthermore, the members
voted 204 to 133 to banish
Blanton along with his speech.
However, this fell short of the
two-thirds majority required to
exile him.
■. Not His Ides
His seat may have been saved
by the fact that Blanton did not
originate the offensive language
himself, but merely quoted
someone else.
Or it may have been saved by
the fact that Blanton, unlike
Powell, was on the House floor
and not in Bimini when the
expulsion debate took place.
He made a stemwinding
speech in his own defense,
managing somehow to compare
himself with both William
Shakespeare and the heroes of
the Alamo.
Like Powell, however, Blanton
steadfastly refused to beg for
mercy. As one member put it,
"not one word of regret, not one
word looking to an apology, has
lie uttered.”
immediately after the expul
sion move failed, the House
voted 239-0 to censure Blanton#
He was lucky they didn’t wash
Ills mouth out with soap.

No Miniskirts
In Wardrobes
Of Fashionable
By GAY PAULEY
UPI Women's Editor
NEW-YORK (UPI) —There'll
he no mini-skirts In the
wardrobes some of the world’s
most fashionable women are
putting together from the new
designer-darling of the Interna
tional set.
Valentino, of Rome and
Milan, counts among his clients
Mrs. John F. Kennedy, Mrs. A.
Carter Burden, her mother Mrs.
William S. Paley, Mrs. Henry
Ford n, Mrs. Loel Guinness,
Mrs. Charles Wrlghtsman, Prin
cess Paola of Belgium, Princess
Luclana Pignatelli of Rome, and
the Countess Jacqueline de
Ribes of Paris.
Every one of them has
appeared at least once on that
annual list of best-dressed
Of the mid-thigh, even higher,
minis, Valentino clucks a “tch,
tch.” “I am haute couture,” he
said. “I don’t like dresses
without proportion. My ladies
are ordering skirts just barely
above the knees. Proportion,
balance, these I do best in
clothes.”
What is he like, this 34-year
old Italian designer who in
three years of his own business
has lured such an impressive
list of fashion huntresses?
Valentino is of slight build
with a shock of black hair,
seems shy at first, but then as
the conversation moves along
says of his spring collection, "I
will be the most copied man on
Seventh Avenue (the New York
wholesale garment distrct).
wholesale garment district).
They copy me in Europe all the
Ume.”
Valentino’s latest trip to the
United States was to show the
collection to his wealthy clien
tele and also to feature his
clothes in an extravaganza for
the benefit of the Committee to
Rescue Italian Art (CRIA).
Underwriting the event was
Martha (Phillips), who owns
exclusive shops in New York,
Palm Beach, and Bal Harbour,
Fla. Martha plans to import
Valentino originals for the likes
of the Wrightsmans and Guin
nesses.
The designer said in an
interview that he couldn’t
remember when he wasn’t
sketching designs, and he
doesn’t know from whence the
talent came. His father Is a
businessman and he says
candidly of his sister, ‘‘she has
the worst taste.”
Valentino learned the ru
diments of couture in Paris,
where he worked for Jean
Desses and Guy Laroche.
He predicted that a major
change is in the making in
clothes. “For too many years,”
he said, “we’ve had square,
stiff, geometric lines. The time
is now for romantic clothes."
