GIRLS HOWLED DOWN
"HOLLYWOOD HOTEL" SHOW SYDNEY WOMEN SHOCKED APPEARANCE FOR CHARITY (Received October 7, 11.45 p.m.) SYDNEY. Oct. 7 Show girls from the " Hollywood Hotel " Revue, which visited New Zealand recently, were howled down by their own sex when they appeared at a charity festival in Martin Place to-day. The girls appeared in abbreviated shorts on platforms, and immediately were a centre of attraction. Cries of disapproval came from women spectators: "You ought to be ashamed of yourselves I *' "Go and put on some clothes I " The girls a little later appeared in slacks and heavy topcoats, thus going to the other extreme.
Government officers recently censored certain aots in the " Hollywood Hotel" Revue, resulting in a lively press controversy.
