It is a vivid memory that many of the delegates will be taking home with them when the festival...
...prove to him that I'm a woman," says furious Doris. "There are easier ways to prove it." rasps her file-voiced pal, Audrey Meadows. Back flies Doris to the love lair. The "Baron von Richthofen of the boudoir'' follows, but this time Cary finds Doris totally crocked, with her big toe stuck in the neck of an empty fifth. He gets to play a lot of gin rummy this...
