She has never changed the color of her hair. She doesn’t like champagne. She is a good story-teller, generally wins her two-dollar hunch bets at horse races, and thinks modernistic homes and furniture “lacking in warmth.” She doesn’t like banana splits. She has an excellent memory for names, rises late when not working and has a marked case of claustrophobia, constantly opening doors and windows. She buys inexpensive clothes, adds her own touch with knick-knacks and thus gives them “an expensive look.” Her father is of Welsh-Scotch-Irish extraction, her mother of Dutch-English. She has a huge collection of sweaters. She subscribes to the Book of the Month Club and doesn’t think money too important to happiness, remembering her own happy childhood in a family of very modest circumstances. She is broad-minded, entertains no regrets, and her earnings are carefully invested in real estate, a filling station, and annuities for herself and parents. She used to eat very little candy but the coming baby has increased her desire for it. She likes Ping-pong, bright colored clothes and the story about the traffic cop who caught her doing thirty-five in a twenty-five-mile zone. He suddenly looked up with an expression of recognition, “Oh, I know who you are. I certainly enjoy your pictures.” She smiled in gratitude, and as he let her go, he said, “It’s a pleasure to have met you, Miss Leslie.” She never diets. She owns a 'toy brown-and-white cocker spaniel, reads an average of one book a week and all the current magazines. She is hypersensitive to people and situations and now possesses a little aquarium presented her by Eddie Buzzell, director of “Neptune’s Daughter.” She doesn’t like “visiting” on the telephone but conducts most of her business that way. She enjoys all kinds of movies, and eagerly anticipates “The Duchess of Idaho,’” for which she will learn to ski. She likes her steaks rare. She will take up golf one day so as to keep up with her husband’s game. She still clings to the first doll she ever had, but it has been to the doll hospital many times due to the beating this tomboy gave it. She seldom indulges in dessert, and she goes walking at seven in the moning. She and Ben, married nearly four years, work at their marriage, never take it for granted. Esther Williams gracefully symbolizes The AU-American Girl. The End iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiimiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiii CALLING ALL PARENTS!
