Mr. Jim Davidson
The Cleveland Courier
Cleveland, Georgia
Dear Mr. Davidson:
I don’t know what you good
people did to Dr. Hugh Masters
at your meeting on Monday night.
As long as I have known him I
have never seen him as excited
and enthused over a meeting as
the one in Cleveland Monday
night. I understand it was a large
and representative group and he
told me he particularly enjoyed
an opportunity to meet and talk
with you.
My real purpose in writing is to
thank you for the fine luncheon
meeting we had when Mr. Williams
visited North Georgia and to say
I would like to spend more time
riding through the mountains with
you just to hear your interesting
narrative description of what has
happened and what is going to
happen.
Please, if you will, thank Mr.
Stamey and Mr. Ash for their
hospitality and assure them that I
have found my favorite eating
place when in your area.
You were most gracious in the
amount of space you devoted to
Mr. Williams’ visit in the May 29th
edition of your paper and we hope
you continue to use the ARA pro¬
gram in any way possible.
Sincerely,
WAYNE R. SHIELDS
Senior Field Coordinator.
Fashion Nude Deal
Is Here - Topless
Swim Suits!
NEW YORK (AP) — The nude
deal in fashion, threatened or
promised, according to your view¬
point — in 5 to 10 years, is here!
And nobody is more surprised
than the designers who brought it
about and some of the buyers who
are buying it.
“It’s incredible,” sighs weary
Rudi Gernreioh, after a hectic day
of taking orders for his topless
ladies’ bathing suit model, orders
from such stores across the coun¬
try as Neiman-Marcus, Altman’s,
Hess Bros., Lord & Taylor and
Henri Bendel.
Recently decolletage has become
so “de” that dresses are a mere
deep breath away from being top¬
less anyway. Yet the barechested
she-woman at the beach was a
trend which Gernreich prognosti¬
cated not for now but another
three or four years hence.
Only to demonstrate how such
a swimsuit might look, Gernreioh
created one. It appeared in a
national magazine, back view, and
in a trade publication, front view.
As soon as the topless swimsuit
broke into print, a number of bath
clubs jumped on the ban—sic—
wagon, trying to outlaw such non¬
apparel.
But Gernreich expects his de¬
sign to appear only at private
pools and on sundecks anyway.
Although a few New York fash¬
ion writers touted the topless
trunks as a means to an even sun¬
tan, a majority of women here ex¬
press doubt that they are figura¬
tively or psychologically prepared
for the new style.
“I might wear one in the pri¬
vacy of my own sunlamp,” said
Gini Jones, a Miami, Fla., visitor,
‘hut there, who needs that much?”
10th Rabid Coon

The latest specimen was shot by

wounds, the dogs were put under
observation for signs of rabies.

Watch Out for
Insect Bites t
While Outdoors 1
By th* Medical Assoc, of Ga.
This is the season of outdoor
picnics, fishing and gardening.
Everybody is outside a lot. Un*
fortunately, so are the insects.
The number that disturb human
beings is legion.
Ohiggers, spiders, flies and ticks
are among the biggest pests.
Chiggers hook themselves onto
the skin; the skin becomes irri¬
tated and itching begins. Red
blotches appear and blisters form.
The chiggers inject a substance
into the skin which dissolves and
softens the tissue. This causes the
skin to itch. Putting flour or sul¬
phur on the stockings and' under¬
clothing before going into tall
grass or weeds helps keep chiggers
from biting. If one does not
escape, he should wash his skin
thoroughly with soap and water
and allow the lather to remain on
the skin ten minutes. Then an
anti-itch preparation can be ap¬
plied. This will keep the itching
under control until the chigger
bites have healed.
NUDIST WEDDING 1
She Undressed l
To Write Story
(Editor’s Note: A sailor and a
16-year-old brunette were married
Saturday at a nudist camp. In order
to cover the wedding, reporter*
had to undress and attend nude,
as did 200 invited guests. One of
the reporters was Marian Dale, a
5-foot-6 brunette for the Fort
Lauderdale News. Here is Marian’s
story.)
By MARIAN DALE,
DELRAY BEACH, Fla., May 10
(AP) “I’ve been to a nudist camp
once before, but I didn’t undress
and there were no nudists around
so it really doesn’t matter. Thia
was different
‘They’ll tell you first off that
you get used to it being naked
I mean. So who gets used to at¬
tending a wedding in insect re
pellant and sunglasses?
“They told me when I took the
assignment (attending the wedding
of nudists Sissy Dawson, 16, and
Charles Morrow, 23) that the thing
— meaning the time I had to be
nude would last about five
minutes. There were 200 guests
and we were there an hour.
“And I’m still not used to it.
We were met at a guarded
gate by one of the visiting wedding
guests — a man in shorts. He
asked for identification, then we
all drove inside to a parking lot.
HE TOOK off his shorts right
away and told us to undress be¬
fore we went on inside.
I didn't know what to take off
first. Anyway, this man came
around the side of the car and
talked to me. He didn’t seem at
all concerned. I was. I just kept
looking straight in his eyes and
talking like mad.
I put on my sunglasses — they’re
allowed — and we went inside.
I had to concentrate hard on
talking to people. After all, you
have to concentrate on something.
I learned to recognize people by
their hair, sunglasses and their
eyes. seemed
ONE LITTLE old man
to be following me around, and I
saw a couple of guys watching now
and then, but everyone was well
behaved.
We (including Don Meitin, Pom¬
pano Beach Sun-Sentinel) obviously
didn’t belong. Everyone had beauti¬
ful tans. Our tans gave us away.
Someone should have thought to
take suntian oil. I’m burned. The
flies bothered us and everyone
wore insect repellent.
Otherwise, not having clothe*
didn’t bother us physically. We
were so busy trying to get infor¬
mation for a story, I forgot — tem¬
porarily — I was nude.
There were people of all ages —
children, teen-agers, men and wo¬
men from their 20’s to 80’s. Some
wore sunglasses and hats. That’s
all. Many were barefoot. They were
all unhibited and all interested 1 in
our reaction. They wanted to know
how it felt to he nude the first
time.
We went back to the parking lot,
got our clothes out and put them on
and Don said “Boy’ you look good
