In this she resembles another American model turned film star, Suzy Parker. There the resemblance ends: Mias Nicholson is not only bigger and bonier, with straw-coloured hair, but she falls slightly below Miss Parker's intellectual standing.

NURSES FACE ATOM HAZARD

SAYS COLLEGE

Minister rapped over 'technical" book.

MANY of Britain's nurses are in danger of injury from radioactive isotopes because they do not understand how to handle them properly. That is the belief of the Royal College of Nursing. And the blame is placed on an 83-page instruction manual issued by a Government committee three years ago. It is much too technical for nurses, says the college.

THE PROFIT

Nor is it true that all the clubs are really brothels. Some doubtless are. but more are not. This is ensured not by the law of the land but by the laws of economics.

It is far more profitable to sell watery drinks af 103. a time than girls at £4 or £6 a night. And the men who run the clubs keep a tight eye on the profits. The "syndicate" often has a man posted near the door, calculating just what the night's take ought to be.
