...shows try to maintain vague ties to reality. Two of the girls have glasses and sometimes wear them; none of them lives in the marble-bath mansions that Hollywood ordinarily assigns to its movie working girls, and Eve Arden's rooming house is pictured as a place where the plumbing seldom works and the phone bill is often unpaid.

...that forgives all if a taxpayer is out of the U.S. for 17 months out of 18. Van Johnson, Betty Hutton and Dorothy Lamour went back into vaudeville; Roz Russell and Bette Davis tried a retread on the legitimate stage; television sopped up Lucille Ball, Ann Sothern, Eve Arden and George Raft.

...took office as history's second woman Cabinet member, Oveta Hobby announced that her title would be Mrs. Secretary.* Then she settled down to the massive task of learning her job. She works six days a week (with time off every Saturday afternoon for a hairdo at Elizabeth Arden's). Her day begins at 6:30 a.m. with a thorough perusal of the newspapers, and she arrives at the office a little after 9. As a rule, work continues through lunch (invariably cottage cheese or fruit salads), with Mrs. Secretary issuing orders as she eats...
