"SILLY STANDARDIZED coun-
try—America," grumbled a dis-
tinguished English advertising man
recently as he completed a U. S.
lecture tour, his pockets bulging
with silly standardized American
dollars . . . "Your cities look so
much alike, I had to consult my
itinerary to see whether I was in
Milwaukee, Sioux City or Spokane
... Same hotels, same stores, same
signs." . . . Same signs my eye!
... This land of ours abounds with

SPECIAL

individualistic merchants who
would rather be caught dead than
hang a conventional sign outside
their place of business . . . They'll
stew for weeks thinking of a new
twist—and one in a hundred is
worth the effort! . . . For instance
. . . Outside a Phoenix auto-repair
shop: "May we have the next
dents?" and "Second-hand cars in
first-crash condition." . . . A Dallas
dealer has a more subtle approach:
"Be a wealthy pedestrian. Sell us
your car!" ... The shop next door
displays clothes for debutantes, fea-
turing "Convertible sun dresses.
Very sporty with the tops down."
. . . Offered by a drygoods empo-
rium in Allentown, Pennsylvania:
"Bath towels for the whole damp
family .. -.By a chicken incubator
in Vermont: "Cheepers by the doz-
en." . . . A furrier in Kalamazoo
begs "Be our miss in lynx," and
an alert fortune teller in Asbury
Park promises: "Your problem
solved, or your mania cheerfully
refunded." . . . Owners of restaur-
ants and grogshops are in the fore-
front when the whims blow . . . A
tavern keeper in Lexington ad-
vises: "If you drive your husband
to drink, drive him here." . . . A
sign on the wall of a diner along
Route 101: "What foods these
morsels be!" . . . And a Broadway
delicatessen advertises: "Today
only! Homemade imported caviar.'
Another sign inside the store
warns "If you don't smell it, we
ain't got it!"

Sixten Ehrling will conduct the
Detroit Symphony and pianist
Vladimir Ashkenazy in a tribute
to Beethoven by performing each
of the famed composer's five piano
concerti, which began Thursday, in
Oakland University's Baldwin Pa-
vilion.
Ashkenazy returned to Meadow
Brook for the fourth consecutive
season. On Saturday evening Ash-
kenazy and the symphony will per-
form the third and fourth concerti.
The jazz-folk offerings for 8:30
p.m. today will be vocalist Nina
Simone and t rum peter Clark
Terry.
As mentioned above- Ash-
kenazy with Sixten Ehrling and

the Detroit Symphony will com-
plete the Beethoven tribute Sun-
day by playing the concerto num-
ber five. For this reason there
will not be a symphony pops pro-
gram on Sunoay.
