Margo Stevens

Put Your Skates On

Looking very cute in her skating skirt, MARGO STEVENS could obviously get around the rink a lot faster if she put her skates on too, but since she's not yet on the rink she isn't all that bothered. She just wants to be sure that the skirt fits before she tries out a figure eight.

Anyway, skates might cut up the carpet, and we don't consider them anymore essential to the current background than Margo does herself. And who's skate-conscious when Margo's legs are so photogenic?

Gina Marzell

Who Wants To Go To The Moon?

The moon man sat in solitude,

Full of thought and care,

When at his door there came a knock,

"Hello," he called, "who's there?"

 

"It's only me," a young man said,

 And came into the room,

 "Please, sir," he said with modest air,

 "I want to reach the moon."

 

"Oh, don't be daft," the moon man said,

 "You're far to late and slow,

 A bloke called Armstrong got there first,

 Many moons ago."

 

Well, at that the young man was shockingly disappointed and to console him the moon man gave him a lovely picture of GINA MARZELL, an Italian model girl living in London, and when the young man realised there was true beauty all around him, he said, "Lummy, who wants to go to the moon?"

Natalie

Cannes Cannes Girl

IT'S whispered there's only one thing more adventurous for a girl than being a night club dancer in South America being a starlet at the Cannes Festival. There are more wolves at Cannes, they say, than you'll find in the Yukon. Not so, says QT's Natalie. They're all perfect gentlemen! Hmm, somebody must be wrong. Maybe the fact that Natalie 'phoned her report from one millionaire's car while staying as a guest at another millionaire's beach house just maybe that had something to do with it!

Marie Graham

Go-Go Gal

Of course, anyone who goes out fishing in the North Sea when there's an awful lot of winter about, is usually the most dedicated type who won't be happy until he's sure he's got fish on your table for Friday lunch. Do you ever stop to think what you owe the dedicated North Sea trawlerman?

He doesn't have a warm office and a lovely secretary like MARIE GRAHAM. Marie is a secretary from Bournemouth and is the sweetest thing, don't you think?

She's curvily sylph-like at 36"-23"-36" and although she likes her job, there's something she likes better. Go-Go dancing. Marie has so much vitality that she can go-go for four hours on end. After just an hour strong young men crumple and get cold water thrown over them, but Marie keeps go-going.

It's girls like Marie who make people over thirty feel like being pensioned off.

And it's Marie's lovely legs that keep her go-going.

Honestly, anyone who has the kind of job that precludes comfort, coffee, and biscuits at eleven and a deliciously beautiful secretary like Marie ought to chuck it all up and start again in some palatial office suite.

Think what you're missing, man.

Veronique Vendel

Glamour Girl

They do say it takes a Parisian girl to radiate real glamour, and in this case up pops the girl with the cute-eyed look, VERONIQUE VENDEL, currently a wow on the stages of Paris. Veronique spells glamour with a capital G, and we'll go along with that.

There are various ways of wearing a sweater and Veronique knows them all. It's something you're born with, isn't it?

Anytime you aren't doing anything, pop over to Paris to see Veronique in her current show. If you don't have time to visit Versailles, don't worry.

Susan Smith

The Simple Things of Life

After devoting several years to modelling SUSAN SMITH decided to opt for the simple things of life.

A husband, a home, and a garden.

It's worked out very nicely, and that's one in the eye for the social anarchists for a start.

Wouldn't it be peaceful if they all went and lived on a desert island and drove each other round the twist?

Then we could all enjoy the simple things.

Carol Wootton

Student With a Mission

They don't all throw things, you know. There are a large number of students getting down to their work. Like CAROL WOOTTON.

Carol is eighteen and her current mission as a student is to obtain a B.Sc. Honours Degree, which is quite a mission for one who could go through life just looking elegantly beautiful.

However, those gentle good looks hide an acute intelligence that can knock you sideways if you decide to start an intellectual argument with her. Stick to football or cricket, otherwise you'll be out of your depth.

Carol is an enchanting example of a girl who is not just a pretty face. Aren't you pleased?

Jacqueline Blair

Modelling The Line

The line is long, but it's mod and it's swinging or so they say. Modelling it is beautiful JACQUELINE BLAIR, shorthand-typist, a great trad jazz fan and, hold it, chaps, hockey captain during her rousing schooldays. Jackie is twenty and last year won two Scottish beauty competitions.
