Y. r ' ! the case of the stuck-up salesman When police arrived at the college haberdashery, they shook their heads in disbelief. Instead of being gagged and bound, the salesman was actually glued to the floor. They took quick stock of the clues . . . an empty glue pot, several odd-shaped pieces of cloth scattered about, an empty show-case, an empty cash drawer. Ingenious shirt-robbery! “Ugg glub,” said the .salesman, still all stuck-up . . . stuck down, rather. When they finally got him extricated with hot water and chisels, he thanked them nicely and said, “What’s the matter with you jerks? I haven’t been robbed.’’ “No,” he explained, “ I was simply making a demonstra tion of the Van Heusen Century shirt for some of the boys. Showed them why the revolutionary one-piece Century collar just wonU wrinkle ever. Told ’em how reg ular collars are made of three layers of cloth, “glued” and stitched together. I glued a set, just for emphasis. . . learned to demonstrate in Woolworth’s.” “Get on with it,” said the detective. “ Well, I showed ’em how these 3-piece jobs wrinkle and wilt quickly even with starch or stays. I said the Van Heusen Century collar would stay neat always — without starch or stays—or their money back. When I told ’em that Van Heusen Century's gave ’em lots more wear than ordinary shirts, yet cost the same price (just $3.95 for whites and $4.50 for colors) they bought me out. I was so overjoyed, I did a little jig and tripped over the glue pot. Got stuck up.” “ Oh, yeah?” yeahed the detective. “Well, where’s all the dough?” “Oh, college men never pay. They just charge everything to Dad.” / (Editor’s note: Oh, yeah?)
