...with stewbums in cowboy boots and pale-faced hoods with patent-leather hair. At the Hippodrom, on a lurid avenue appropriately named Grosse Freiheit, bored horses trot in a circle as equally bored equestriennes strip while balancing on their backs. Along the Raper, a tourist can shoot a fake duck, get a tattoo, watch an "intimate" movie in Technicolor, or cheer a brace of Amazons clad only in black panties as they wrestle...
...animation has fallen on evil days. Once upon a time Walt Disney had a duck that laid a golden egg, but for many years now it has cost more to draw a paper performer than it does to hire a live one. In order to balance their books, most modern animators compromise their methods. They simplify figures, eliminate movements, primarize colors, standardize settings.

The penalty for throwing a club is $50, and at ladies' prices, that's no bargain. For winning the Titleholders for the second year in a row, Marilynn Smith collected $ 1,300. Mickey got $1,000, and Judy, who finished fourth...
