A BACHELOR'S
Wifesaver Allen Prescott, who is unmarried, gives good hints
BY RONNIE RANDALL
ALLEN PRESCOTT, known to radio listeners as The Wifesaver, has the difficult job of combining practical household advice with a breezy, humorous style of presentation all his own. A bachelor at thirty, The Wifesaver has to overcome the natural doubts a housewife has about a man — especially an unmarried man — "who tells her how to run her own home."

Here are a few samples of his advice, culled from copies of his recent radio scripts — you'll find them both useful and amusing.
If you get pretty tired of looking at people lying around on the bottom of clothes closets looking for rubbers, don't just close the closet door and let them stay there, but get some snap clothespins. The clothespins are not to hold the people upright — but they're to snap onto a pair of rubbers when they're taken off. Snap the rubbers together and hang them
