Fortified by these succulent mot- sels, I staggered to bed to lose myself in the arms of not so gentle sleep. Almost immediately I began to dream-- I found myself amid the swaying palms on the sands of a tropical isle, waves lapping romantically on the shore when a large coconut fell on my head. I looked up and, to my utter amazement, saw Dale McClanahan perched cross-legged on a high palm piping Six Lessons to Mme. La Zonga to a rather bewildered tropical snake. Dangling upside down on a neighboring limb was the inimitable Donna Sullivan giving a weird imita- tion of an ape for a group of incredulous natives.Then I perceived Marilynn Dineen strolling along the beach with two handsome bronzed explorers and muttering to herself When 'will I learn not to make two dates for the same time! The scene faded and I was in New York where at every street corner journal headlines proclaimed that Phil MacGavin and Peggy Adams had completed their round-the-world flight in a helicopter. I learned that this tremendous feat had been made possible by jane Swank's capable organiza- tion of a Society for the Annihilation of Gremlins. Opening the paper, I noticed a column entitled, Flashes by Blatchly-or Hloanie on the Spot . There I read that Ioyce Pringle, the noted actress, was spending a month's vacation with her husband at the gracious Whitesides Manor. Also- Patsy Payne, the fair-haired girl of Radio City, had married the writer of those vigorous Pepsi-Cola commercials.

Blatchly also reported that Courtney Cowgill, brilliant playwright, had turned her talents to writing the latest comedy hit, California, The newspaper print whirled before my eyes, and, the next thingI knew, I was in Washington, D. C. where the city was in an uproar over Senator Patty Lynch's latest report on international relations. I saw Iane Sine who said that she was now writing an explanation of income taxes for Einstein and a Spanish book entitled Buenas Dias Manana! Down the street I could hear Latin music, upon investigating, I discovered the Pellas School for Rhumba Dancers whose slogan is We'd like to see Murray Rhumba as well as Pellas.

During the intermission I met the versatile musician, Marilyn Sullivan, who is now writing a thesis for her Masters degree entitled, I swam, Why don't you? Upon leaving the Opera House, I bumped into Ianc Vinson who was rushing to a meeting of The Red-Headed League of which she is now president. Downtown, at Podesta and Baldocchi's I was welcomed byThekla Wurlitzer, an original interior decorator, who told me that she is going to give the Hamlin School girls some help on their fashion show decorations. With Thekla were the ever vivacious Irwin twins-Ioan, the editor of Woman's Wardrobe, and Iean, who illustrates the famous What to Wear magazine. As I wandered along, I was startled by a familiar- Now, Kiddies, and I beheld Georgia Korbel with three little girls of assorted ages in white
