Sweat It Out. Their new-found notoriety brought them some further attention. A Manhattan hotel clerk identified Murph the Surf as one of the men who held him up and pistol-whipped him last summer; Actress Eva Gabor accused Murphy of having beaten and robbed her; and Murph's 22-year-old mistress, Bonnie Lou Sutera, committed suicide, leaving a cryptic note that said, "I guess this is what you want...
...down blindly to a forced landing in a blizzard. This, if nothing else, gave a fascinating revelation of the seating order of Hope's entourage when he is on the move: the stricken helicopter contained Singer John Bubbles, Madman Jerry Colonna, Bandleader Les Brown, and only one female, Actress Janis Paige.

Leaving his wife and child, he moved in with a comely actress, Florence Deshon, whose temperament was much like his: she had once caused a near-riot in a theater by refusing to rise for the Star Spangled Banner.
