Clothes Encounters
From Armand LaPrade ("Would You Believe?")
A REAL GASSER
In the early part of April, 1964, ladies' stockings were suffering from the runs and they demanded an explanation. Later that month, they were given this explanation: "An atmospheric fluke caused a rash of runs in women's nylons in New York City, recently, according to the Department of Air Pollution Control. The guilty agent was nitrogen dioxide gas, released during blasting operations by a construction company working in the downtown area. Because of the damp, heavy air on that day, the gas hovered near the surface instead of being dissipated. When a sufficient pocket of it touched a stocking, it dissolved some of the chemical elements and laddered the stockings."
RUNNING BARE
Earlier, in the middle of January, 1964, gas station attendant Ralph Bautzer looked up from his work for a second and blinked his eyes in disbelief when he saw a woman, completely NAKED, funning towards him. He was awe-stricken. Snapping out of his momentary daze, he quickly opened the ladies' washroom and let the nude woman in, threw a blanket in to her, then, called the police. Detectives questioned the victim, Mrs. Rosalie Leonard, who tearfully explained that she was walking along the street when, all of a sudden, she stopped in her tracks. To her horror she realized that, all her clothing had vanished from her body. At first the detectives refused to believe her, but when they discovered ashes on the spot where she said it had happened, they scratched their heads in bewilderment. This took place in Wilmington, Delaware.
MORE HOSE RUNS
During the month of May, 1965, a group of girls were enjoying the noon-day sun on University Avenue in Toronto, Canada, when they noticed that little holes wee beginning to dot their nylons. The holes soon lengthened into unsightly runs. The Metro Air Pollution Control said that, air pollution probably caused the holes.
