Search for pretty women


Acapulco, in its drive to re-create itself as an international vacation destination, plans once again to create a Tourism Police Force. These cops would, according to the local director of public security, exist primarily to help visitors, provide information and give directions. The force would be manned entirely by women, preferably, the director said, by pretty women. Wearing distinctive new uniforms — hot pants were not mentioned — they would in themselves be a tourist attraction.
