...through with baseball, Leo was more coy still. Would he move to the Cardinals? The Braves? Television? For once, Leo was not talking. The new Giant manager: ex-Giant Bill Rigney, now managing the Millers, the Giants' Minneapolis farm club. In Pittsburgh, Pirates Manager Fred Haney spoke with precision. After three years in the National League cellar, Haney, with no surprise, said he was fired...
...succession of inane interviews. Sample: "Here's Jackie Cooper-how are you liking this, Jackie?" Jackie (plugging his play, King of Hearts) said it was wonderful, just wonderful. So did Virginia Mayo (plugging Warner's The Silver Chalice), Judy Holliday (plugging Phffft), Carol Haney (plugging The Pajama Game), and Pinky Lee (plugging himself).

Janis Paige, who desported in her unmentionables in Remains To Be Seen, is back in fine voice and better shape. Best of all, Jerome Robbin has discovered a dancer, Carol Haney, who scores the biggest personal hit since Carol Channing extolled the virtues of precious stones. Miss Haney, after proving in the first act that she is no slouch in the slither-and-sling category, dresses like a man for a dance number, "Steam Heat." By dint of talent and personality...
