Anne Duke

Non-Political Nomination

We want to nominate ANNE DUKE for something special. We don't want to nominate her for a political post, as we've gone off politics and politicians.

If we were able to, we'd retire all our present M.P.'s and send them off for a long rest to the Bahamas, where they could lie around and not think of anything except what they were going to get for lunch. In their place a bevy of housewives and a bunch of businessmen could get on with straightening the country out.

We'd like to keep Anne out of all that, however. We'd like to nominate her as an entrant for this year's Miss United Kingdom contest.

Anne has already won some beauty competitions. She's a Welsh girl, by the way, and her vitalistics are 36"-24"-36". If anyone would like to convert those figures to centimetres, they're welcome.

Once Seen

We were just quoting old Clancy about once seen, never forgotten, and coincidentally enough who should follow on but an absolute whizzbang of a femme fatale, as they say.

She's a Yorkshire girl. She's JENNIE LEA HARRIS, and while other girls were wondering why the fellers were passing them up on the beaches, Jennie in her bikini was creating the kind of impact that makes young men forget to go home to lunch.

Impact in this case is directly concerned with Jennie's vitalistics, which add up inch by inch to 39-23-36. And you can't really ask for more than that without being a little bit greedy. Other girls have to make do with much less. Actually, other girls may think Twiggy is dynamic but if you're a man who favours impact and you were stranded on a desert island with the girl of your choice, would you settle for a Twiggy type or one like Jennie?

On a desert island you'd soon get fed up with looking at coconuts and you'd need a much more intriguing shape to keep your optics from going stale. We'd like to have Jennie around.

Around? Good word, that.

Alice, Where Art Thou?

Alice, Where Art Thou?

I'm cleaning up the little home, mother (says ALICE RICHMOND). And sure, enough there she was with a sweeper in her hand and going great guns over the floor in her bikini outfit.

Well, the bikini kept Alice cool all the way through but she slipped up when she gave that floor such a polish, which indicates how much better it is to do your chores wisely but not too well.

Glamour In The Air

We mean this literally.

There's nothing like the modern air hostess to bring comfort and glamour to air travel, and one of the most glamorous of them is WENDY GOFF. Activating our cover this month with dynamic colour.

Wendy, a former Miss England, is just the girl we'd most like to get lost in the clouds with.

Sextain To A Student

Miss SALLY DIXON
Isn't like Nixon
Because for a start
She's got a soft heart.
And in old London Town in her student gown
All of us feel.
She's got more appeal.

For Your Album

For those who swear that there is no pin-up quite as elegant or quite as attractive as SUSAN DOUGLAS, here is Susan brought to you in the zingiest of modern lingerie, and we just hope you like the zingiest of modern lingerie.

We were assured it's what all the girls are wearing in the musical "Charlie Girl."

We were assured it's what makes a girl with it. It turns her from just a beautiful dream into a real kooky.

Perfect Prototype

The fact is perfection is hard to come by. But if you're looking for a girl who is perfectly feminine you can accept SUSAN WHIDDON as the prototype of your dreams.

Susan is sort of creamy and curvy and soft and lovely, which is the way a girl is intended to be, never mind all those emancipated and muscular Russian females who dig up roads and lay whacking great gas pipes.

Down in Plymouth, where Drake stands on the Hoe, looking out to sea, and where the weather is soft and balmy, Susan is busy being beautiful. Well, she models, and you have to be beautiful for that or you don't get past the door.

Of course, if you prefer a liberated feminist whose ambition is to emasculate you while she digs the allotment over, you're very welcome.
