The 2A-page document of
disenchantment, lying on the
drama desk at the moment. is
one from MGM which says
fatty that this center Of Beau
Brummells-and their wives and
sweethearts-is appallingly ig-
norant of who Beau Brummell
was.
The effect of this is to imply
that while we are handsomely
groomed, we are at the same
time so gauche that we do not
know the founding father of
style. The actual. disconcerting
percentages are that Is per
cent of the males surveyed. and
% per cent Of the females, do
not even know what the name
Beau Brummell" means.
This is shocking intelligence
to be set down by a man wearing
q Dior tie Chat women have gone
crazy about all day.. a Hathaway
shirt, suit that Thos. s. sells,
and a pair of cordovan shoes
with the British Walker coat of
arms. Well. then, trademark.
X + X
The shred of comfort to be
found in the MGM expose of our
ignorance shred for which
any loyal resident would go
searching-is that we are not as
ignorant here as. say, wing-col-s
Jared Boston.
There were people in the 40
cities surveyed who gave truly
appalling answers to the ques-
ton: What does the name Beau
Brummell mean to you? Among
these were such as "a race horse"
"shoe polish" "wife-stealer,"
"Nazi general" and "a soldier of
India"
The worst that happened here
was at least more romantic, TAX
ing the form of such approxima-
t1ons of truth as LADY killer"
Don JUAN" perfect gentleman"
and romantic rogue" And one
desperately forlorn reply: "The
kind OF = gentleman I wish my
husband was"
It interested Metros BRAIN
washers, if that is not too strong
a phrase. that here and else
where among the $500 BRAIN
washed in the 40 cities, one reply
indicated a kind of tattered lit
eracy. This was the one which
identified Beau as a character
IN the story Of the headless
horseman."
This misconceptions" says
the MGM summary, puzzled
the pollsters (who are not so
--- -literate themselves, yes,
noO until somebody recalled
that in The Legend of Sleepy
Hollow there is character
named Brom Bones"
Actually. what it all indicates
perhaps is that in an age of
anxiety as acute as this one, the
future Is so much more engross-
ing than the past, that people
get fuzzy especially on more i'm
portant details of life than the
identity of Beau Brummell.
However. there was such a
chap and that ignorance of him
may be diluted, few facts about
him might not be amiss.
His real name was George

Bryan Brummell. he was less
than high born, and he lived In
18th-century England. What
ever he lacked Of pedigree, how
ever, he made up In discriminat-
ing taste IN the people he pre-
ferred to associate with. One Of
these was George Gordon Byron,
the poetic Lord. Another, and
more important one. was the fat
and frivolous then Prince Of
Wales who later became George
Nv, one George this side Of the
low point in Georges.
The Prince and Brummell were
playmates whose audacity and
energy endeared them to a great
many Londoners. but not to
Prime Minister william Pitt.
There was nothing Of the faun
about Pitt and he found 1t in
tolerable in others, especially
Brummell when it tempted him
to a role in a plot to unseat
George III.
If he was a flop at political
revolution, however, Brummell
was a wild success in the field
Of sartorial anarchy.
His supreme achievement here
was the introduction Of long
trousers. the first pair of which
he wore with sensational effect
among the knee-britched male
guests at one Of George Tvs
birthday parties. It was this
stroke Of genius that put males
forever beyond the pale of
worrying about runs in their own
stockings and permitted them
to concentrate their almost ex-
elusive attention on the stock
ings Of the other sex.
If there is a greater one-man
boon-but that's another story.
Brummell-a hard man to put
down, 1t seemS-was extremely
popular with the sex for which
his own sex struggles to achieve
splendor. He was not. however,
popular enough to get his name
on the London marriage regis
try.
He would have liked it this
way. the records indicate, with
the object Of his one sincere af-
lection. This was the Lady Pa
tricia who found him a charm
ing playmate but the type with
which no sensible woman could
enter lasting partnership. The
consequence of her attitude was
that he never married although
the evidence points to the fact
that he had quite a good time.
Beau. toward whom one gets
a chubby feeling as a column
gets longer. is one of the most
piquant chaps playwrights and
other kinds of writer's ever laid
eyes on. There have been, down
the years, one play, two musicals,
and three movies about him
which may. or may not, make the
local ignorance of him more in
excuSable.
The third of the movies, by the
way, will be released in Novem-
Der. 1t was made by MGM which
explains how it comes to know
so much about Beau-and how
little Is per cent Of the males
and % per cent of the females
here know about him.
