suit was Universal actress Ramsay
Ames. Within a few weeks, the
photograph will be pinned up in
planes, tanks, ships and hunks from
Guadalcanal to Algiers. Guys will
be sWooning over it like their Is
year-old sisters swoon over Frank
Sinatra.
And all the time those guys won't
know that the lady in the bathing
suit landed in Hollywood because
she couldn't hold her men.
Yes, sir, Ramsey Ames has had
the doggondest trouble with men.
To begin with, she was dancing in
Miami night club when the i'm
migration authorities picked up her
partner and sent him back to South
America. She found out later he
haG. slowed away in a banana boat,
entering the country illegally. That
was the first man she lost
Then, just before Pearl Harbor,
she organized a rhumba band in
New York. That's when he troubles
really started. She began losing
them in wholesale lots to her
Uncle Sam.
So Ramsay quit trying to hold her
men, came to Hollywood, and won
Universal contract and a lot of
publicity when that picture of her
in a bathing suit was judged the
best pin-up photograph of the year
That was rather funny, too.
IMPOSED POSE
She had been posing all day for
Universal's ace still photographer
Ray Jones. Long about 5 o'clock
she was tired out and reclined on
the floor of Rays studio. Ray took
one look and said, That's it." He
grabbed a camera and snapped the
picture which later won the photo
graphers' award.
Before Ramsay Ames had trouble
losing her men, she was a singer
dancer and maraca shaking men,
ber of rhumba band. She sang at
the Stork, La Conga and Famous
Door clubs in New York. She was
billed then as Ramsay Del Rico
Her real name is Ramsay Phillips
and she was born in New York of
English-Spanish parentage.
Since signing Universal contract
six months ago she's worked in
practically every picture on the lot
including "Ali Baba and the Forty
Thieves" Crazy House." Gross
Your Fingers" and now "Three
Cheers for the Boys" with George
Raft and Zorina.
Her pin up photographs first at
tracted the Army's attention at Fort
ORD, Calf. The camp newspaper
printed one of them with an edi-
torial note: I'VE don't know who
this wonderful girl is but it really
doesn't matter. The Hollywood
studio which sent out the picture
forgot caption. Well supply one
It's simply, WOW"
She saw copy of the paper and
replied to the editor:
"A Hollywood gal abhors ano-
nymity,
AS much as Mae West hates night
gowns of dimity,
So enclosed find a new pose, I'm
wearing spangle,
You might print this one, it's from
new angle,
And this time permit me, in men,
tioning names,
always sign mine, with love
Ramsay Ames."
The soldier editor printed the new
photograph twice as big.
Smart gal, Ramsay Ames, even if
she can't hold her men.

Scoring Data From
Referee La Fond

Deviating from the usual boxing
practice of not announcing a ref
cree until ring time. the District
Boxing Commission has named
Eddie La Fond as the third man
for Monday nights Griffith Stadium
battle between Heavyweights Gus
Dorazio and AL Hart.
This was done that managers of
the two fighters. principally Dora
zios. might discuss beforehand the
Districts scoring system with the
man who will handle the fight
The move was made after Jimmy
Wilson, Dorazio's trainer, asked for
an explanation of local rules and for
a chance to talk about Drazio's
crouching and weaving style. Gus
committed couple of fouls, hitting
low blows, in his bout here last
winter against Joe Baksi, which
probably cost him the decision Not
being familiar with the local system
OF taking off two points for foul,
wilson made such fuss he was sus-
pended for awhile here
Dorazio is taking a day off from
his usual workouts today, but will
