It May Be That the

H HISTORY books have a lot to say
about the brave and husky
Amazons. They were a nation
OF female warriors, ruled alike in peace
or war entirely by women. Legend
has 1t that their country bordered on
the Black Sea, but no man was allowed
TO live there.
Boy-babies were sent to their fathers.
who dwelt outside the borders. while
girl-babies were brought up by their
mothers to learn to hunt and TO fight.
There was nothing sissified about these
he-girls Of antiquity. They were liv-
ing proof that the hand that rocks the
cradle can also slash out with the
sword.
Some people would have us believe
that the world no longer produces
women as forceful and capable as were
these brawny female warriors Of olden
times. But don't you believe it. Today
we do have our Amazons. women who
are just as strong as were their an
cestors who fought in the Battle of
Troy.
ldhe ENelyHhe OHlln' loT example.
For all her soft-spoken manner, the
Hollywood Miss is as hard as nails.
She could climb into a ring with a
wrestler or boxer, take her place as a
riveter with a bridge gang. work as a
stunt girl in the movies. do a real Job
with the 140-pound weights, compete in
aquaplane championships, and polish
all this off by climbing into a plane
and putting it into a test power dive.

Although but 20 years old. Evelynne
already has done all these Amazonian
stunts
But pretty Evelynne is no exception.
because throughout the United States
today, there are hundreds of Young
woman who could qualify as modern
Amazons and put the girls OF antiquity
TO shame with the strength in their
muscles. Evelynne, however. stands
head and shoulders above most of them
when II comes to doing strenuous
stunts, as the pictures on this page
show
AS is the case with many another
outstanding and all-around athlete
Evelynne's strength came from her
victorious fight to overcome a physical
disability. When she was 16, she was
struck by an automobile For two and
half years. she couldn't walk. and
IL looked as II she was chained for
life TO wheel chair. Undaunted. she
started a logged all-around campaign
OF physical exercise that in less than
three years brought her TO the peak OF
physical perfection she shows today.
Although most girls don't have
Evelynne's versatility. the world is full
Of modern Amazons. The British
women, who act as ferry pilots for
fighters and bombers. American Red
Cross girls who bravely follow our
fighting men TO the field OF battle are
