Inc TACT mat LABOR Day Is
only two weeks away brings
home the realization that sum-
mer is almost over. Many of
us will take every opportunity
during this time to make the
most of whatever summer
activity we enjoy.
Without doubt, swimming is
one of the most popular. Those
of us who love this sport will
no doubt head for the nearest
beach or swimming pool.
Which brings to my mind a
question:
Why, oh why. do so many
people become "show offs"
when they don a bathing suit?
Quiet : hammered folks, who
usually cloak themselves with
a mantle of dignity, can drop
not only the mantle, but all
semblance of dignity the min
ute they put foot on a beach
or bathing pool.
Take, for instance, the male
exhibitionist. He expresses
himself by strutting up and
down, striking poses on the
diving board (seldom diving,
If you've noticed) and is given
to much ducking and splaShing
of the young lady whom he
is escorting. The resultant
squeals are greeted with loud
boisterous laugh, followed by
more ducking and splashir,.
The game goes on and on
under the woeful eyes of the
beholders who, unfortunately,
also get splashed in the process.
The male of the species are
not the only ones guilty of dis
playing poor taste in the man.
ner in which they conduct
themselves on the beach. Take
for instance the middle-aged
lady, who sprawls all over the
sand, legs and arms out
stretched. Unfortunately, this
same lady usually neglects to
"act her age" and has pur-
chased an all-too-abbreviated
bathing costume.
Be Modest
Speaking of bathing apparel,
the young lady who has all
the necessary assets to give
the appearance of a femme
fatale" should realize that an
ultrasmart bathing suit won't
excuse the impression she may
give by undignif1ed behavior
when showing it off. AS we all
know, bathing suits are ex-
tremely scanty. Therefore, it
would seem doubly important
that they be worn in as modest
a manner as possible. Posing
and Haunting ones seminudity
definitely comes under the
heading of bad taste.
To give as much thought, or
more, to the way we act, as we
do to the way we look, when
parading in a bathing suit
would seem to be indicated.
Learning the lesson that MAX
ing ones self conspicuous at
any time can only result in
ridicule, or pity (Which is
worse) is something that many
people have to learn the hard
way. How much better to think
how your actions are going to
appear to others before you
make a complete pest of your
self.
Memo to parents: Juniors
antics may seem very cute to
you and yours. The innocent
bystander who receives a
mouthful of sand or is thor
oughly splashed because of his
uninhibited enthusiasm, I'M
doubtedly has a decidedly diff
ferent opinion-and cute" is
not the word for it. Let Junior
have his fun. but be considerable
to others-and keep him within
bounds.

with collectors seeking more
specific data on such col
lectibles as lamps and cover
lets.
Geographically, interest in
antiques is liveliest in the
Western States, judging from
the inquiries from that area,
Mr.. Ruddell says.
Despite his constant ham
ding of books on ceramics,
furniture, glass, clocks, old
prints and many other sub
jects. the 38-year-old business
man has resisted the tempta-
ton to collect antiques himself.
He plant to develop his bust
ness so that when he retires
from Government service he
can make the transition from
a part-time to a full time en-

.Poznan Trials
Be Halted

POZNAN, Poland. Oct. 6 ~.
-Rumors raced through Poznan
today that the Polish govern
ment plans to stop the trials
resulting from the June %
bread and freedom" riots here.
These rumors were based on
the belief that the Communist
government has been sorely en-
barrassed by the bold and dra-
matte testimony against miser-
able living conditions, lack Of
political freedom and extortion
lof confessions by police bru-
tally.
Reports which started in the
court building here said most
of the 1874 indicted Poles would
never be brought to trial. Only
% defendants have been brought
to court in three trials so far.
Other rumors said the current
trials might even be stopped and
their defendants freed. The
court president denied these
rumorS.
But the belief persisted that
some kind of announcement
would be made Monday morning
several hours before three de-
PENDANTS accused of murder in
the first trial are scheduled to
be sentenced.
The governments embarrass-
ment was heightened dramatic
ally today when one trial had to
be halted temporarily after two
defendants made hysterical out
bursts against alleged police bru-
talities. The sister of one de-
PENDANT had a screaming emo
tional breakdown.
In the uproar the courtroom
was cleared of its 200 spectators
and when the trial resumed after
Is minutes one of the 10 de-
PENDANTS was excused for illness.
/ Another defendant repudi-
ated a pretrial confession. He
claimed it had been extorted by
