Frankfurter Shop Not The
Same Since Boss Fired
Paddy, Melodic Butcher
j LONDON, (— Sausages are
now produced without melody at
the butcher shop where Paddy
Cody used to work.
Uninspired, tuneless frankfurt
ers are all the customers can get.
Paddy, the 26-year-old singing
butcher was fired yesterday.
“His singing at work might
ftave amused a few customers for
' short time, but it got on my
nerves to such an extent that I
nearly lost three fingers in a
'(grinder,” said his boss. “Meat’s
:bur business, not music.”
“Singing’s in my blood,” said
♦Paddy. “I was doing some yodel
ling to test my vo'ce, and then
went through ‘Red River Valley.’
and ‘Be Faithful.’ I just got into
• ‘China Doll’ when the meat axe
■fell on my job.”
Now only the grinder hums in
the sausage works, and Paddy is
looking for a job on the stage.

Summit Meeting Should
Be Held In The U.S.
NEW YORK, UP> — Former
President Truman proposed Tues
day that any summit meeting to
ease world tensions be held in
the United States.
He noted that' three American
presidents had made long trips
to confer with heads of foreign
states.
“It’s about time they came over
here,” Truman told newsmen
during his morning stroll. “I told
Stalin when he wanted to see me
any more he wbuld have to come
over here.”
Truman apparently had in
mind himself, President Eisen
hower and Franklin D. Roosevelt
as the American presidents who
’ had made long trips to confer
with foreign leaders. President
Woodrow Wilson also made such
1 a trip.

Jayne Mansfield’s
Wedding Like
4tli of July Picnic
By JAMES BACON
PORTUGUESE BEND, Calif.,
UP —- Jayne Mansfield, who
yearned for a quiet wedding, was
married Monday night to Mickey
Hargitay with all the hoopla of a
Fourth of July picnic.
Some 1,500 fans, mostly teen
agers but some adults carrying
babies in arms, screamed and
shouted outside the Wayfarers’
Chapel during the most tender
moments of the nondenomina
tional rites.
Someone even bounced a rock
off the top of the all-glass church
while photographers, who near
ly outnumbered guests, kept
banging their cameras against the
glass walls.
Just as Jayne and Mickey were
whispering their “I do’s,” more
tl^an 100 teen-agers stormed up a
steep hill shouting like a Marine
landing party, but a cordon of
police pushed them back.
Jayne, looking sexy yet de
mure in a wedding dress than re
vealed more curves than U.S. 66,
said she never heard the yelling.
“All I heard was Mickey say
ing ‘I do’,” she giggled.
The 29 - year - old bridegroom
and his 24-year-old bride arrived
in Jayne’s home town, Dallas,
Tex., for their wedding reception
Tuesday afternoon.
“I wanted the reception to be
in my home town,” she said, “be
cause I wanted the first wedding
cake I cut to be the one mama
baked. Her mother, Mrs. Barry L.
Peers, served as Jayne’s matron
of honor.
Hargitay, a one-time adagio
dancer and muscle man is known
as a former Mr. Universe, so
named in a London competition
in 1955. He is a Hungarian-Am
erican son of a Budapest theater
owner.
Bob Hope, who witnessed the
wedding certificate, and actress
Marie Windsor were the only
Hollywood names who traveled
the 30 miles to this remote and
lonely site by the Pacific Ocean.
