After .proceeding across the

she is definitely better looking

I'm not blaming Mlle. 'Bardot for

cracked up to be. She wiggled her

a lot of ability along these lines.

I started thinking about busts.
Don't ask 'mc Why. What's With
this 'bust craze, anyway? Mam-
malians of mammoth proportions
create headlines every time they
take a deep breath. (High school
kids practically break their backs
trying to stick their chests out an
extra inch.
• *
So who's impressed? Other girls,
'maybe? Not men. Men have been
marrying women for thousands of
years; and busts have nothing to
.do with it. 'In fact, back in the -
twenties, when I was a kid, busts
were frowned on, and still they
married -Them.

pathy show in your face, let good-

bust this ,side of Bali.
* *,*
Busts cause nothing but trouble,
I remember a girl 1' knew in col-
lege. Her name was .Betsy. She
had a vast bosom. I always called
her Busty to myself. 'One night 1
was dancing with ' he ., We were
talking and I inadvertently: called,
her "Busty" instead of "Betsy."
Know what happened? You got
it, Mac. She bust me. Right -on
the nose.
"I've driven ten

'confess, every one of ' •
them was a real
pleasure. This year's
