It seems Shirley had become an expert deep sea diver In Hollywood I saw Martin Halfert, who had so wanted to be a farmer and auctioneer. It seems that Elizabeth Taylor just had to have him for her sixth husband. In Las Vegas, I saw Marvin Oerke who had become the world's slickest pick pocketer. J. Edgar Hoover was after him but Marvin was too slight with his hand. During a visit to the Metropolitan Opera house in New York, I saw Ethel Berkenbile who had grown to high fame as an opera singer. Her current opera was re-doing Madam Butterfly. iAt New York, I saw Don Julien who had made his fame in baseball with the New York Yankees. Don had just closed the season with 70 home runs to beat all the records.
