Nice On Ice

There’s Scotch, there's cream soda, ginger pop, tomato juice and anything else in the way of cooling refreshment on a hot summer's day. All nice on ice. And there's RIKKI HAYNES, professional ice skater. 5' 3" of whizzing rhythm.

Rikki at home has a different look, the fact is, its darn difficult getting around the kitchen on skates.

According to her photographer, Rikki's hair is a beautifully fantastic red, and if there's a connection here with the way Rikki burns up the ice, we can't quite see it. Nobody goes three times round the rink on their head except the highly impossible novices.

When she isn’t touring on ice, Rikki lives in West London. If you live around that way yourself and you see a girl with wonderful red hair and a streamlined chassis, it could be our “nice- on-ice” girl.

So Right

"What's German for yes?" asked the knowledgeable teacher at the foreign language evening class.

"Ja," said student SYLVIA MARTIN.

"You're so right," said teacher. "Like to come and have fish and chips with me after class?"

"Nein," said Sylvia, a secretary.

"You said nein?" he enquired with a disappointed look.

"Ja," said Sylvia.

"Oh, good," said teacher, "we'll eat at Sam's, the salt and vinegar are first-class at Sam's."

Some teachers do get some students confused.

Natural Hazard

Many games contain hazards, but none contain more natural ones than golf. Ask SANDRA MCPHERSON.

It’s bad enough trying to cope with the rain. If you hang on to one of those enormous golfing umbrellas long enough, you’re liable to take off and finish up dangling from a tree. But every perishing club is a handicap in itself when your swing is largely a matter of hope. Hit and miss, that’s it. And in the end, you’re all tied up but not in respect of the score.

Answer to this one is not to put down more than one ball at a time. With five at your feet, you’ll find out, as Sandra did, that you’re liable to step on at least two.

But, my word, what about those wretched trolleys and all those folding arms and things? They’re designed to give you what for all right, and you can say that twice over.

There’s always a first time for a contraption like this to poke you in the eye. Sandra’s answer to this is to don her weatherproof and take on all comers, including the wind, the rain and erratic drivers who forget to shout “Fore!”

Combination of bright blonde and breezy day. It’s MARIE BLAIR, photographed in windy May.

Cute Wife

Here is FAY STEVENS, Kentish girl, as portrayed in a quartette of poses by her photographer-husband, who thinks there’s no pin-up as nice as his cute wife.

Jackie Miller

/

Bristol Belle

In the university city of Bristol, there are many lovely girls. Bristol, in fact, is renowned for its beautiful belles. Among them we found 18-year-old JACKIE MILLER, shorthand-typist with a flair for glamour.

Jackie also has a flair for modelling lingerie and long rows of beads.

With measurements of 35"- 23"-36", Jackie is just right in the modern tradition of slim, trim lovelies, and out walking she looks pretty enough to raise a regular whistle.

Country Wife

Talking of marriage in a rural environment, here's a wife who has always lived in the country. She's JEANETTE BONNER, and living in the country has given her a complexion as creamy as honey.

She lives in a cottage next door to a field, and high rise concrete blocks are just something she hears about but never sees. It’s all lovely, all quiet and peaceful, and is highly recommended to persons who suffer the traumatic vibrations of crowded city life.

Jeanette's favourite ways of getting about are on a bike or on a horse. And she doesn't need tranquilisers.

Slinky Satin

Man-made nylon is all very well, but there's still something about silk and satin that is consistently alluring.

There's something very slinky about the satin worn by CARLA HOUSEMAN, and there's a man called Parkblow in Pimlico who says she's the girl he'd most like to stand next to in a crowded bus. With or without her satin, he says.

Carla is a Continental courier, with a command of several Continental languages, and a Continental shape that in English means 37-24-37.

That’s cuddly in any lingo.

Summer In Winter

THERE are no leaves on the trees, the fern, the bracken and the gorse are at their dullest, and the winter touches the landscape with frosty fingers. But brave as a lark and gay as a linnet out comes beautiful MAGGIE McCULLY in colourful dress and white frills, and winter suddenly takes on a touch of summer. The birds sing, the robins scrap and the sun shines. That smile of Maggie's is a magnet.

Maggie is a girl of Surrey, with a five-day working week in London.

Maggie in the picture and is not admiring her pretty legs but is looking for a ladder in her nylons. Twiggy trees are as much of a menace in winter as summer.

Charlotte The Good

There was once a queen called Charlotte who was very good and awfully nice, and all her subjects thought the world of her.

And just as good and just as nice, without having a crown and sceptre, and all the trimmings, is Sheffield girl CHARLOTTE PETERS.

Charlotte is tall and curvaceous, as well as jolly good. She's five feet nine and measures 38-24-38 going down or going up. She likes fast cars and can handle a zippy roadster with aplomb, which means she'll pass you without a hair out of place. On a warm day anywhere, she likes sunbathing in the nude, so if you're in the same place as she is on a warm day you know the figure to look for.

If you miss her it's because you can't add up. Or you're shy.

Don't Lark About

That was what the anxious photographer said to receptionist GAIL REDFERN as she gambolled about instead of standing still. He was anxious to take some classic shots that would knock editors sideways.

But Gail felt all lively, like. She hitched up her skirts and swung on trees. He had an awful job to keep up with her. He had to swing on trees himself. And he knocked us sideways with the results.

If they do the same to you.

Take an aspirin.

Bridie Goodwin

Bird in the Country

One thing that's rather inspiring about birds is that you find them in the country as well as the towns.

One extremely lovely and ubiquitous bird is BRIDIE GOODWIN, who flits from town to country all the time. Well, Bridie works in a county town, so she can't avoid her share of the concrete, but at weekends she's almost always to be found communing with the rural outdoors.

Slim, trim and fetching at 35-23-36, Bridie is the pin-up of all the farmers' boys for miles around. The farmers themselves would like to see more of her only their wives won't let them.

Fay Stevens

/

That's Nice

Yes, very nice.

It's secretary FAY STEVENS, looking much more appealing on the window seat than a pot plant. Fay is not only a secretary, she's also a housewife and looks as good in the kitchen as she does in the office. Mind you, the kitchen work is optional. The chains have-gone, like. Still, one has to eat, and hubby is always sneaking out into the garden. Wise bloke. He knows who's the better cook in his family.

Statistics are Ridiculous

According to statistics lovely girls in black lingerie have twice as many opportunities of marrying Argentine millionaires as fat women in stripped swimsuits. Which indicates that statistics are ridiculous. Beauty queen MARGARET BLAKE isn't even interested in Argentine millionaires. They're all in the Argentine and she lives in Oxford. She knows some vital undergraduates. They're all broke but they're lots of fun.

Not For The Whiz Kids

It's true that while Long Johns were popular with a bygone generation, they're not for today's feminine whiz kids.

There are exceptions, of course.

Scots girl BRIDGET NORTH finds them absolutely it in the cold weather, all kind of snug and warm and cosy.

They go with the new fashions and providing you don't wear a midi or a maxi with a split skirt nobody will know you're wearing grandmother's reach-me-downs.
