'A nightmare of bad taste" Wine call him in his native United States. Many swear he must be mad, othera acclaim him a genius. Peaceful slumbers. Were never so golden as the '"nightmare'" that makes millions gor Elvis Aaron Presley, twenty, cane year-old former truck driver from Tennessee, Presley, who gets the credit, or otherwise, for the social pheno- menon we know as Rock 'n Roll, plans to visit Britain with, the leers and howls, the strutting and pesturing that he calls "singing." Earning $30 a week two years ago, Elvis ("The Pelvis") Pres ley now gets $600,000 a year from records alone. His most notorious disc is "Heartbreak Hotel," which sold a million copies in three weeks, although nobody can understand a word of it. For his film debut, in a Western called "Love Me Ten- der," 20th Century Fox paid him well over $90,000. Yet he can't read a note of music and his advisers hastily istOPPed him from taking singing lessens when, recently, he devel- 0Ped ct,titttral ambitions!, "Ah jes' glower an' wiggle mah jeans, and the women scream •out loud," is how Pres- ley modestly describes his sue- "Ah want yew .. . Ah peed yew . . . Ah love yew' . . ." he yells, and riot-squads are called into action. This six-footer, weighing 11 stone 6 lb.; gangling, with an olive complexion, hurls himself in every direction, twangs the strings of his guitar, occasion- ally'just drops the instrument to the floor. And in a screeching grab for it, proclaims; "Ah'm airborne!" When Elvis says, "Ah'm jest sendin' those dolls," he means that his female audience is in a state of frenzied hysteria when anything can happen. His fans rip off his clothes, smash his cars or plaster them all over with lipstick kisses. At Albuquerque it required ten policemen and two wrestlers to keep order — or try to; the• crowd of 5,000 went into such a state of hysteria that organizations throughout Ameri- ca held formal meetings to see what could be done about ban- ning him. They haven't rue- (ceded yet. When one crowd of girls couldn't get near enough to Presley to touch him, they sur- rounded a press photographer and touched him -- not too gently either. "Maybe he's touched Elvis!" they screamed. Row far can hero-worship go? His squirmings and rnoanings, hip-wriggling and gesturing have outraged leagues of decency, churches, welfare groups, parent assciations and many news- papers. Some U.S. top disc jockeys have elected not to play his records any more( but they go on selling.) When in Ottawa (as In so many other places) police bar- red rock n' roll sessions at a dance-hall and disc jockeys took Presley off the air, schoolchil- dren broke into their own school after hours to jive to Elvis's re- cords. And when he appeared 'On television in New York they buttoned him Into a tight even- ing jacket so that he ceuldn't roll his hips so provokingly. Presley says he was singing in the church choir when he was four. However that may be, there is nothing of the church choir about his present techni- que. Cocksure, gum-chewing, he neither drinks nor smokes, and shoWers around the money he simply is not used to earning in such vast sums that a secretary has to follow him around from restaurant JO restaurant picking up the wads of dollar bills he leaves carelessly behind him.

"I'll explain, son. Many years ago in Cripple Creek I fought a rugged 20-round fight with Jolly Roger McGee. In the 19th round I hit him smack on the chin with my delayed-action punch, but that fellow didn't fall down on the canvas until six months later when he was fighting Jack Dempsey in To- ledo under a different name."

Once you know your environment a little and have learned a few dodges, you can be just as at home and relaxed in a tundra world as in a New England garden. Groups of white ice cakes, in- congruous in the summer blue and green of the sea, floated by, graceful things, saluting each other with metallic clashes and tinkles. Some were fantastic shapes like fairy castles. One was as big as a small house; there was a pure white, upright angel, then a gigantic pelican with great outstretched wings. White whales, with young gray ones (some prople say Mature ones are occasionally gray also), dived In and out, puffing and blowing with that delicious soothing sound as they, fed placidly.

Mother, both ardent fishermen. The magazine asked Bucking- ham Palace for a picture of Queen Elizabeth fishing. "There are no photographs, in existence, of the Queen fishing" was the unequivocal answer. But Fisherman finally unearthed this one, taken in May, 1952. It. shows Queen Elizabeth, clad in waders, tweed jacket and head scarf, fishing for salmon in the River Dee on the royal estate at Balmoral, Scotland. Man with her is unidentified. Her husband, the- Duke of Edinburgh, was also fishing, two miles downstream. How Can I? By Anne Ashley Q.

He will kiss with considerable enthusiasm the girls who swarm around him, the girls who carve his name on their arms and bodies with knives and razor- blades, but he seems afraid of courting anyone. "Lots o' wo- men are fine," he comments. "I believe in safety in numbers. One girl would scare me to death." Apart from Cadillacs, Presley indulges himself with . . . teddy bears. He will sit for hours on his hotel bedroom floor sur- rounded by toy bears, and after a show go to the nearest fair- ground to win more teddy bears. When he's collected enough bears he'll ride the dodgems till the fairground closes. Born in Tulepo, Mississippi, he was given a guitar when he was twelve years old.
