than 100 young ladies lined UP in

Of Connecticut Ave. N. w., in an
swer to an advertisement for one
secretary.
This bureau, opened about a
month ago, keeps on its file a list
of escorts, to be rented" out for
any occasion from bingo party
to a prize fight.
Ladies lacking escorts to take
them to a night club, football
game, dance or any place they
may want to go, can simply call
the bureau and state what kind
Of escort desired. A client may

color of hair or any other quail

topic of conversation is passed on
to her escort.
Besides this simple procedure,
the lady needs only to buy tickets
for the event they are to attend,
provide what pocket money her
escort may need and then pay the
bureau its fee, which is divided
with the escort.
Fees run from SIS for three
hours to $3.50 for four hours with
a $40 minimum charge for any
escort that mus wear evening
clothes. The manager Of the
bureau, explaining that such
establishments are successfully
operated in other cities, said that

Those Los Angeles authOri-

all INDECENT tourists from the
county limits. Texas may be
the Panhandle State, but Los

Thousands Of penniIesS wan
derers use their thumbs to get
out there and then depend on
their OutStretched palms. And
are they willing to work? Say,
they think Southern California
is the Garden Of Eden, but they
don't want to pick any fruit for
a living.
They get the fanciest pan
handling on HOIlywOOd'S streets
like the guy that asked a dime
for a cup of coffee. And when
1 said he could get good cup
of coffee for a nickel, he ex-
planned he always liked extra
heavy cream with his.
And then there are the old
timers you meet on all city
streets. Like:
Buddy, could you gimme q

"a quarter"
"WelI, then, a pint, If you can

Yep, rivalry Is rivalry, but

come the second largest city on

would only flock north to San
