But Powers, despite his baggy, Russian-made double-breasted suit, looked fit and to all appearances unbrainwashed. When newsmen murmured about a bruise on his neck, Ida Powers set the record straight. "It's a birthmark," she said. "Yes, indeed...

But most members prefer their artistry straightforward. Last week Fluffles the Tassler and Countess Carolin von Sirowitz (the names change quickly) made members forget such recently faded princesses as Peaches Page and Melodic Bubbles. And all across London, clubmen were impatiently awaiting the promised arrival of Bonnie Bell the Ding-Dong Girl, whose entire wardrobe consists of three bells...
