And after one studio party, he came home tight at dawn, smashed a door pane to get in, admitted he had dropped by the house of his costar, Gail (The Lawless) Russell. Countered Wayne: one whole week, when he was away in Hawaii, Esperanza's home-loving house guest was Hotel Heir Nicky Hilton. At week's end, the Waynes agreed to agree on money, but John still intended to have his day in court. Hollywood...
