We left the Tea Shoppe and stopped at the bank so 1 could cash a check. Mr. Crum said he was delighted to meet me, and to tell you the truth I was duly impressed by his 8-button cutaway. He said it vaguely reminded him of the new look that women talked about while he was a Senior. At that time he was outspoken against it, but time changes everything, and besides Jackie secretly tells his tailor what he should wear. We used the television phone to call Charlie Arnold in Springfield, where he and Patty are a happily married couple--l6 years is something of a record, now or anytime. The firm of Arnold tc Co. is the biggest furrier in the state— Bunnies were always his hobby anyway, Mr. Crum informed me. Mr. Arnold's daughters have the most beautiful fur coats that bunnies can produce. Patty showed us a beautiful specimen over the television set. Charlene Hammond-Fricke, famous woman-photographer, was at the farm that very moment photographing the little darlings (bunnies) for a magazine owned by hubby Tom. Charlene who has traveled extensively, spoke to us from one of the hutches. She hasn't aged one bit, Rowland and Pinky said. Our next call was to D. A. Garrison, the noted criminal lawyer, in New York. The butler said that neither the master nor Mrs. Garrison (the former Marlene Miller) were in. Mr. Garrison was busy with a famous case pertaining to the non compos mentis of a former school teacher of his. Little Donnie interrupted the conversation to say that Dad always was smarter than some of his teachers, and would get this one off with 15 years-to-life. Mrs. Anna Workman Plunkett, English teacher at University of Georgia, was due in New York at that very moment to testify for her colleague. She is flying her 10-passenger heliocopter. That makes a nice family size copter for—Annie, Walter and the 8 little Plunketts, namely. Noun, Pronoun, Verb, Adverb, (2 sets of twins). Preposition, Adjective, Conjunction, and Interjection. We relunctantly hung up on that bit of news and visa-phoned Hollywood where we called the set of “Hard-Hearted Hallie’’ which will star that famous singing and dancing team of Pat Mayes and Alleane Berghaus. Both of these beloved stars of stage and screen are happily married, (Alleane having acquired her fifth husband just recently, and Pat, to be different has stuck to the same one). Across the street at M-G-M studios, opera-singer Rose Steinberg was practicing her scales for her forthcoming picture. Bernita Hoffmeier had agreed to accompany Miss Steinberg (merely her stage name, married name a secret). Theatre audiences would get a treat with these two accomplished artists appearing together.
