Though Lee's husband, Prince Stanislas Radziwill, had to stay behind in London, she and Truman were off for a vacation that will last, as Truman announced in his adenoidal purr, "as long as the country is interesting."

Listerine at a religious convocation? Why not-since, under terms of an old and apparently inviolable legal document, Warner-Lambert Pharmaceutical Co. must still make royalty payments on Listerine to the heirs, executors or assignees of its originator.
