Perhaps by coincidence, the Washington Star-News reported five days before that the Government had begun an investigation into the donation. The probe began when an unidentified witness came forward in Manhattan earlier in January and volunteered to U.S. Attorney Whitney North Seymour Jr. that he would tell about the transaction...

...entrances and exits and confined her delivery to flat recitation. Also making her first Broadway appearance, Rhonda Fleming, 49, seemed to be posing for a camera rather than playing to an audience. Of the stage veterans, Dorothy Loudon and Mary Louise Wilson are tartly expert comediennes, and Jan Miner is wonderfully hilarious as a countess addicted to husbands (five) and alcohol (90-proof...
