Elvis is "The Amazing Kiss & Run Bandit".

This was a hilarious read. "El has never, not even once, been serious about one girl, not to our knowledge or anybody else's." Heh, tell that to Dixie Locke, or June Juanico, or Anita Wood. "Elvis is a kiss and run bandit." Indeed. Thirty years later, rocker Liz Phair wrote a song about this kind of fellow, but she used some different words to describe him.

And did you see the ad for the "Beatnik Dictionary"? You only needed to "Send One Skin (1.00)" ... and the address was 4639 Poplar Avenue in Memphis. Was Larry Geller already in town?

Thank you for the share.

Do you think he was just suppose to let on he wasn't tied down to anyone particular?Or maybe he really wasn't serious about any of those early girls.There's an interview I listened to awhile ago.I think it was from 56.He's asked about being serious with anyone and he pretty much says he's never been.Those girls you mentioned like Dixie Locke,June Juanico and Anita Wood,they must have heard about all of this at the time.I would think that they would be thinking they have something special but he just says the ring is just a friendship ring and there's nothing serious.Maybe it was a Colonel Parker tactic to keep the girls flocking around.
The side adds were pretty hilarious back then too.
This is one of my mom's magazine's when she was a teeny bopper.I wish she had of saved more of them because I'm sure they all would've had some Elvis in them.

Yeah, management's sage advice was to keep the press in the dark about any serious relationship. The special ones, like Anita, really resented the pressure put on them to act nonchalant whenever in public with Elvis.
