Stars Built THAT Way
Nix Topless Swimsuits
HOLLYWOOD, June 19 (UPI) —
Hollywood glamor girls modestly
drew a curtain around the new top¬
less bathing suits for women today.
They should be worn only in pri¬
vate, several bosomy ladies of the
cinema said.
Stella Stevens, a shapely blonde,
said “I think they’re terrible. Why
bother with the top half? If I
was going to do that I’d go all the
way. To me, it’s half a bathing
suit. And they're probably more ex¬
pensive than the full ones. a
Mamie Van Doren and June Wil¬
kinson, two cheesecake queens
who have posed for pictures in the
altogether, took time out from their
acting chores in “The Candidate
movie to berate the new styles.
Said Mamie: “I already own one,
but have no intention of wearing it
in public. But if some women plan
on doing so, that’s their business
and the law enforcement agencies’.
“Actually the suit isn’t even too
good for sunbathing because it has
two suspender-type straps that
would leave a line on your body.
My plan is to wear it at home
and I think other women should
do so. It’s OK around your boy
friend or husband or social pals.
But for the general public, no
thanks. n
Miss Wilkinson, an English girl
who measures 43-20-36, also sug¬
gested that the ladies “forget it. »
u I may be known for undressing
for the photographer,” she said,
“But to wear something for the
general public to gaze at, forget
it. ll
Connie Stevens suggested that
only the braver bathers will wear
the topless suits.
11 I guess it’s all right if your
figure is up to it,” she said, “and
your nerves. VV

LBJ's 'Appalachia'
Runs Into Trouble
Chicago Tribuna Press Service
WASHINGTON — A House pub¬
lic works subcommittee has decided
to shelve President Johnson’s $1.2
billion dollar "Appalachia” pro¬
gram, subcommittee members dis¬
closed.
The program, which had the
backing of Republican presidential
hopeful, Gov. William Scranton of
Pennsylvania, would have financed
“a new system of super-highways,
a new TV A, and a socialistic farm
program,” in 13 states, members
said.
“It was a big monstrosity,” said
one member of the top Democrat
members of the subcommittee.
If the president sees a need for
special assistance to these Appa¬
lachian mountain states before the
election, Rep. John Blatnik (D.
Minn,) is ready to provide them
with an accelerated public works
program, the subcommittee mem¬
bers said.
“The biggest objection to the
Appalachian program was the com¬
mission it would establish to ad¬
minister it,” the member reported.
“It would supersede every other
agency in government.”
The subcommittee member said
the program proposed to give the
committee authority to build a new
system of superhighways complete¬
ly outside the present federal high¬
way program. Members found this
especially objectionable.
Thinks Russell
Showed Stature
B
The Editors: It is obvious, as
political commentators are begin¬
ning to point out, that LBJ and his
Senate cohorts in their post-haste
to promote their political expedien¬
cy overlooked a golden opportuni¬
ty to “save face” when they re¬
jected Senator Russell’s national
referendum amendment to the so
called Civil Rights Bill. Acceptance
or rejection under this amendment
could have been qualified as “Vox
Populi.”
Here again, Senator Russell
showed a stature unequalled by
any individual in Washington, in¬
cluding the present occupant of
the White House.

Was He Smiling?
This May Be Why
Norman Shavin
If your husband came home the
other day smiling (or looking
guilty), it might have been because
he and hundreds others caught a
buss at the corner of Luckie and
Forsyth.
For nine hours, statuesque Carol
Taylor (40-25-38) stood there in a
crowded blouse and swimsuit peck¬
ing the cheeks of the shy, the
exultant, the furtive males who
stopped to see what she was pro¬
moting (a movie). As we clocked
it, while across the way a second
story male took pictures, Carole
was quick-kissing 90 men a minute
(that day’s “work” and a previous
day’s downtown waltz in a simu¬
lated barrell earned her $40).

Topless Bathing Suits
Selling Fast In Miami
MIAMI (UPI) Topless bathing *
—
suits are selling briskly here,
sportswear shop owners reported
Sunday, and nearly half of the
bottom halves of bikinis are being
bought by men.
Despite the fanfare created by
the new suits and the brisk sales,
police said no women bared their
chests in one of the creations on
Miami’s public beaches to date.
“Most of the women who buy the
suits buy them for use in private
swimming pools or at private par¬
ties,” said one sportswear shop
clerk.
A local swimsuit manufacturer
said that sales have been so bride
he has started mass production of
the topless suits.
Jack Hartley of Jar Hart Origin¬
als said he has produced 600 bare
bosomed creations since they were
introduced nationally two weeks
ago.
“About half the customers who
buy the suits are men,” Hartley
said.
Last week he said he was watch¬
ing customer reaction to the top¬
less suits in a local shop when a
middle-aged man rushed in the
store, grabbed one of the suits
{ram a shelf and bought it without
question.
The owner of a fashionable
women’s apparel shop at Miami
Beach, Mrs. Babs Snider, said she
sold eight of the new suits last
week.
it It’ a funny thing," she said,
“but it seems that the men want
their wives to wear them.”
Beach Beauty
In the Raw
BENTON HARBOR, Mich., (AP)
— Hager Shores Beach may be in
for an extraordinarily large influx
of bathers male variety.
Reports have cropped up that a
beautiful, deeply tanned woman
wearing the bottom half of an
orange bathing suit has been ap¬
pearing briefly at tihe beach outside
Benton Harbor.
Someone complained to the
sheriff’s office and a deputy went
out to investigate. He reported:
“She was gone by the time I got
there — darn it.”
British Nudist 1 Says
Fad May Help Cause
LONDON, June 29 (UPI) — A
nudist group Monday attacked the
topless dress and bathing suit fad
as “pure nonesense” but said it
might make nudism more popular.
Despite the threat of prosecution
and fines in many countries, the
style was spreading. In France,
bikini-clad girls were improvising
topless styles by untying the upper
parts of their already scanty swim
suits.
In Greece, Holland, Denmark,
Finland, and Austria, women were
warned that baring the bosom was
against the law.
ERIK HOLM, president of the
international Nudist Federation,
called the no-top dresses an inven¬
tion by “small girls greedy for sen¬
sation.”
But he concded that the trend
might bring more recruits for total
nudity.
British fashion writers saw a
future for the style.
Like it or not, the idea seems
to be catching on,” London’s news
of the world said.
Taylor and Cutter, arbiter of the
British men’s fashion world, con¬
curred: “As far as we can see, the
bare bosom is likely to remain
popular, but unlikely to become
fashionable. !J
It said the surest way to en¬
courage a new style is to try to
legislate against it. The magazine
criticized a chain of English dance
halls for barring topless dresses.
“THE DANGERS engendered
through dancing with a bare bos¬
omed lady are, after all, slight, it
it said. “The build of the average
English woman is unlikely to cause
too much consternation anyway. a
But Dr. Ernest Claxton, assistant
secretary of the British Medical
Association, said over the weekend
that “unnecessary temptation must
result from wearing this type of
dress. a
« Anything that makes it harder
