...floor. When the directors of this company meet, they test its products as well as discuss its affairs. Orange juice from National Juice Corp. slakes their thirst. Dietician Marye Dahnk of Kraft-Phenix Cheese Corp. sometimes makes them cheese sandwiches on a special griddle. Sheffield milk, butter and ice-cream are served from the big refrigerator which adjoins the president's office.

But the reverend gentleman said the two that hopped into the cream were mice, not frogs. A frog wouldn't die in cream, would he or she? Unless she or he ate till he or she sank? A mouse would drown...

Indiscreet is uneven, but its moments of farce lift some of the curse of coyness. Hilarious is the scene with the ice cream cones, which starts when Swanson spies a child who is crying because he has spilled his cone on the sidewalk.
