Girls of Summer (by N. Richard Nash) concerns five people in Manhattan who inhabit or run in and out of a bohemian garden apartment. There is a mixed-up woman of 30 (Shelley Winters), her mixed-up 18-year-old sister, a mixed-up male teacher of ballet, the sister's mixed-up young hipster admirer, and a brash, cocky intruder who drives a Jaguar, sneers at art, and gets involved with both sisters.

Those Stevenson boys with their toothy smiles are altogether too Ivy-Leaguish, and the aunt, I'm afraid, would be terribly officious. Mrs. Kefauver, at least on the '52 try, was also too much in evidence-pert and pushy. No, let's keep Mamie, who, with her naturalness, is also self-effacing and lets Ike run his side...
