Miss America Reveals ‘All’ Concerning Winning Curves To NY Post's ‘Saloon Editor’ NEW YORK - (UP) - Earl Wilson, the New York Post's gift to Broadway baloney, interviewed Bess Myerson, 21, Bronx brunette who was the first New York dolly to cop the Atlantic City award of Miss America, and wound up with some revealing answers. ON NECKING The so-called "Saloon Editor" asked her, "Do you ever neck?" "A little sometimes - just from the neck up." "Are you a sweater girl?" "Oh sure, I wore them all through college." Now Wilson thought he was getting some place. "I notice you weigh 126 and have a 35½-inch fronts piece." La Myerson continued, "But I don't wear them tight. I wear them long and full." NO PADDING Then Wilson asked if she liked Frank Sinatra, to which she responded: "I can take him or leave him." Then Wilson got down to business. "Do you wear a brassiere?" "Yes." "Do you wear pads?" "No." (What a way for some guys to make a living.) BOTTLES UP, SGT. WELLS! DUDHKUNDI - When Top Kick William A. Wells squints his eyes and relates his adventures in the Far East to his grandchildren, no doubt his tales will be emphasized by the presentation recently made to him from his pals of the Twin Dragon Lightning squadron.

Steel girders that were twisted into grotesque shapes by the bomb's tremendous power is what remains of a modern building in Hiroshima. The building in the background, though gutted, miraculously escaped being pulverized. Bounding both buildings are acres of scorched land. A two-foot layer of twisted tin and rubble marks what was the industrialized city of Hiroshima. All that remains standing for block after block are fire-blackened trees. Spotted here and there are shells of buildings which escaped being pulverized. Two Japanese civilians walk through a cleared path in Hiroshima bounded on both sides by a mass of rubble resulting from the atom bomb's blast. |
Some of the best entertainment in the ex-Jap prison camp in Mukden is watching former Nip guards doing K.P. for liberated Allied prisoners. Enjoying the sight above are: left to right, Col. R. G. Rogers, Cpl. D. B. Tooney, Sgt. Andrew Prenznak, Pvt. D. Brooks (British Army) and Coxwain T. J. Reardon. The shoe's on the other foot these days and Cpl. Manuel Chacon stands guard over his Japanese charges to see that it pinches just a bit. Chacon was captured in the Philippines and brought to Mukden. These Japs, pulling a heavy roller, get the parade ground ready in front of the Municipal Building in Singapore in preparation for surrender ceremonies the next day. The British guard would work the Japs until they fell out exhausted, then he would get more Japs. |
