Reading that the modern girls were Twisting in long underwear. LINDA BROOM'S grandmother presented Linda with some all to herself much to Linda's astonishment. Trying them out Linda had trouble making her way through the bushes and after that it was back to modern lingerie.
But how do they really look asks Linda? Can it be true that these were all the rage with grandmamma? Well, so they say. After all, the Victorian’s thought pantaloons were absolutely ducky.
Linda, by the way, is nineteen, measures 37"-24"-37" and is a receptionist. She lists her hobbies as Twisting, swimming, and walking. And she wants to be famous. Well, she's halfway there for Linda is quite a looker.

So, you like the warm sands and hot sun of the Caribbean? All right, off you go and roll about all day, and if you're not tough enough to weather the winter of Northern Europe go and put your red nose in a hot coconut. LISA SCOTT, who comes from Canada, can cope with a nip in the air. It makes her glow all over and she can't wait for the lake in the park to freeze, when you'll hear her gaily calling, "Come on, Luke, get your skates on, it's a lovely day.
Spick No 185 - April 1969
West Berlin salesgirl JUTTA FISCHER had a new pair of ski pants, but wasn't sure that they didn't look better off than on.
They were a bit tight, you know,
Ski pants are supposed to be.
"Not so tight," said Jutta, "that I can't get them on without six friends to help me.'
And after all, with vitalistics of 36-23-35, Jutta is hardly a great big Wagnerian walloper. She's as trim as they come.
So, she sold the pants to her twelve-year-old cousin Hermione.

Call in any time during a weekend at the Rose and Plum Tree, a quaint old pub in Dunbury, Gloucestershire, and it's odds-on you'll find Katria serving behind the bar, helping her father. He owns the pub and finds that when she helps him, she doubles his trade. We can't say we're surprised.
Relaxing in her room upstairs she assured us that being a part-time barmaid didn't interfere with her social life. She's a friendly person, knows a lot of people she meets in her job. They often drop round for a chat and a drop! - after hours. "There's nothing like spirits to revive one's spirits", she says.
"Tell us more", we said, holding out our glass. Well, another thing, she told us, is how much more freely men talk when they've had a little something to warm them up. Little secrets, like their weaknesses, special likes and dislikes, marriage plans . . . it's not long before she knows more about them than they do.
"Of course, we never touch the stuff normally", we said hastily, pushing the glass aside. 'Especially when driving.' But with the shrewd look she was giving us, it looked as if she'd guessed all our little secrets already. One thing we forgot to mention when Katria isn't serving behind the bar of the Rose and Plum Tree, she's a degree student in psychology at Cambridge University.

I can’t find Dunbury in Gloucestershire or anything like it.
New to you and to us lovely TINA RYATT of Flintshire.
Only who is cuter. TINA RYATT herself or Tina's little kitty-kat? There's a little hint of mischief in the eyes of both, don't you think?
Tina, a beauty queen is eighteen with statistics of 36"-23"-36". We don't know kitty-kat's statistics at all, but her framework is undeniably cuddly.
Nevertheless, lovable as kitty-kat is, it's our considered opinion that the cuter of these two kittens is Tina, even if kitty-kat as got long whiskers.

If we laid end-to-end all the letters, we've received telling us that SUSAN DOUGLAS is your choice in the pin-up roll, they'd reach from as far back here to as far forward as there. Out-of-doors Susan makes just the picture to complement the fascination of Nature.
There is a certain something about the trees, the birds and the sky, and there is definitely a certain something about Susan.
That certain something about Susan is her ability to look enchanting what-ever her environment, and as the film star said to her publicity man, you can say that again.

It was lovely and warm in the country that night, and if only there had been a moon instead of an inky sky, GRETA BERRY would have been lit up in the most romantic way.
"However," said Perce, the camera man from the big city, "as there isn't a moon I'll use my flash.”
"Oh, don't mind me," said Greta, who couldn't get the zip of her coat done up, "just go ahead, naturally."
"Willingly," said Perce, and there was a click and a flash, and then Greta was a bright light on a dark night.
By day she's an office girl, and if we're concentrating lately on bringing you different features on her it's only to keep you happy.
Beautiful Britons No 188 - July 1971
The girl in the picture is Tracy Reeves. We took her to a furniture exhibition and told her she could pose on whatever took her fancy. She chose this luxurious soft settee because she liked the feel of it. "Can put my feet on it?" she asked.
We asked why she wanted to, and she explained it was all a matter of texture. Her suede boots had the same fuzzy feel as the settee cushions.
So, they went well together. They go well with Tracy, too.
Tracy is a student of philology - which means the study of words. So, she told us what her name meant. Tracy is a shortening of Teresa, she said.
Teresa comes from the Greek and means "Harvester". Reeves, her second name, means a number of things. Among others, it's the name of a bird, a kind of sandpiper, found in America. "This doesn't seem to make much sense to us"', we protested. "No, but it's something to say when you run out of conversation", she answered.
"Can't you pose anywhere but on that settee?" we said. "People will get bored if you're in the same place all the time". Reluctantly she agreed
Kneeling on a table? ? ? Well, with a girl as nice as Tracy, with us it doesn't really matter how she poses. She'd look good anywhere.
