Large cities continue to be the safest field of oper- ations for TV's who wish to "go out for a walk". I have already met 4 TV's who make a habit of going all over New York in their pretty things not just at night but in bright daylight. The girl's who are in the know (and perhaps somewhat catishly) wonder how they manage without being "read. None of them is so well constituted physically as to fool anyone in a close inspection...broad shoulders, muscular arms and expecially muscular legs which, in short skirts are the most dangerous giveaway, and many other decidedly masculine characteristics, to say nothing of their voices...and still they go all over the city...buses, subways, restaurants, stores, theaters, and they pass un- troubled. Which shows that people don't see details, just general shapes and colors. The biggest danger lies in the TV's own fears and nervousness.

Example 1: My TV friend is driving (all dressed up) from New York to the CHEVALIER D'EON, 130 miles from the city. On her way to the N.Y. State Thruway, her car breaks down right in the middle of the crowded highway in front of Yankee Stadium. The police arrive. May I see your license? The license is all too obviously a man's license. The law looks up and peers at my friend. "You must be an enter- tainer then?" he says. My friend smiles and says, "yes officer", and that was that. (Let me clarify one thing tho, this TV was not onelof the all too obvious group I just mentioned. This one passes very nicely voice n'all).

Example 2: My wife, Marie, Dorothea from Chicago and I are all set for a visit to the 82 Club and its famous im- personator show. They have a new show and it's really a beautiful thing to see. What costumes, what colors, what girls! Suddenly a husband and wife couple call up...They wish to join us...Marie says yes. They come to meet us. The husband comes dressed. We are a bit afraid to go to the 82. That's one place where they are used to "reading" guys in skirts. Our friend looks good but we are still afraid he won't pass a professional close inspection. Marie says, "don't be afraid, nobody'll notice a thing" And
