TRAILER LIFE: We were listening to some members of the camping fraternity tell of their experiences, and overheard this story.

We do not attest to the truth of this one, but it goes like this A couple were hauling a house trailer down the West Coast. It was a hot day and the husband was tired. He wanted his wife to drive, and he planned to break some rules and sleep in the trailer. It was agreed she would drive, but she told him she would not drive through' Seattle traffic and would wake hjm up before they got there. Agreed.

He went into the trailer, stripped to his shorts, opened some windows, and lay down to snooze and enjoy the breeze. The wife soon found herself on a wider highway. From four lanes she was soon in eight lanes and couldn't pull over to change drivers. She struggled along. She came to a traffic light and, she stopped without using the trailer brake.

The jolt woke up the husband, who thought there had been an accidentrHe jumped out the trailer without dressing the light changed and she drove off. CHARLOTTE'S DATE: At the Rough Riders Sooners victory dinner Monday night, Alderman Charlotte Whitton happily introduced her escort for the evening. He was 15-year-old Colin Barnard. The ex-mayor claimed that Colin, when a baby, attended her first reception (accompanied by his parents) after she was first elected mayor. "I want to make sure he votes for me when he's 21," she winked.

It would seem, therefore, that she has no plans for slowing down.

Gardiner The man who is synonymous with rock roll returned to television last night. Complete with black leather and gold lame outfits, long hair 'and prodigious pelvis, Elvis Presley came back to the small after anbsence of 12 years.

The undisputed king of the rock set decided the time was ripe to reappear before the masses who made him a show business phenomenon. Simply titled "Elvis," the CBC special was an hour of music which delved into the past to 1 unearth the numbers which a decade ago a generation saw fit to buy in the millions. Presley's crown as the world's top single record seller has long been lost to the Beatles. But the Mississippi charmer has maintained his appeal despite the longevity of his show business life. The big question with last night's TV show was, of course, how Elvis would project in his video role revival.

The special itself was almost an hour of straight music with Elvis singing some two dozen songs including "Hound Dog," "Jailhouse Rock," a gospel medley and a couple of contemporary items. But there was no question of the sound completely reverting to the clatter-bang of the Presley hey-day. To begin with, it was the Presley of old trying to com municate with the new listeners. And then it was the new Presley trying to convert the old faithful. Carrying an- hour long special on his own was undoubt-.

edly a burden for an entertainer who hasn't made the live scene for 10 years. It showed in his early which suffered from poor editing and the distraction of a cage-like stage In which the star sang and paced, not totally at ease, in time to the music. Nevertheless, Elvis showed in the 60 minutes he is a star whose resources haVe only been lightly tapped. He no longer needs, the sensationalism that spiralled him to the top. Instead he offered a calm, new image'.

And the TV program was a stepping-stone in the right direction. It was an expensive production that combined simplicity and elaborate staging. Yet Elvis, although nervous to start, knew exactly how to involve the studio audience. His many years before the film cameras have given him experience to project strongly on celluloid, He came on strong last night, despite sloppy editing which often cut out his casual reminiscences. Elvis Presley will be around -for some time to come and, as in the past, for many acts to go.
