...driven from Augusta with Bob Cohn, the city editor of the Augusta paper for which I was working, to cover a Southern Christian Leadership Conference march protesting the county's stolid brand of segregation...
...Rosenstiel, aging, multimillionaire boss of Schenley Industries. Later, the marriage soured. With a huge fortune at stake, the Rosenstiels began fighting in court over his contention that her Mexican divorce was invalid, thus annulling their marriage and with it her claims to his money. In 1964, his lawyer (Roy Cohn) finally beat her lawyer (Louis Nizer) with a trial court decision holding that Mexico lacked jurisdiction over Mrs. Rosenstiel because she was in fact a New York resident when the divorce was granted.

The defendant was Millionaire Songwriter Alan Jay Lerner, 46, who was being sued by his wife Micheline, 37, in New York Supreme Court, for a separation settlement and custody of their son Michel, 6. But the lyrics were what really juiced up the show. Micheline testified that Lerner threatened to kill her, played around with other women and roused her at 5 a.m. by going out to get "shots"-"vitamins," he explained, merely vitamins, to help him write faster.
