...week was only $1,500. By union regulations musicians are entitled to be paid in cash before they go into the pit. Last week's performance seemed doomed when no one would vouch for the $1,500 check even though Mrs. Albion insisted "this is one of the loveliest performances ever given and we want you to see it." Some one suddenly remembered that there was a folding portable organ hidden away in a storeroom. Up onto the stage in answer to a call for volunteers marched Mme Marie Zalipsky...
...will produce. But there is a hitch. This lovely greensward is under the jurisdiction of the hard-hearted Metropolitan District Police. Every afternoon the men in gray swoop down in Neon-lighted cars or rude motorcycles and drive the pleasure seekers from the grass. There are no exceptions. The loveliest bare kneed girl from the halls of Radcliffe, the most pitiful youngster, the most loquacious college boy, all on bicycles are as unwelcome as an epidemic of German Measles.

And when he tries to write an opera based on hate, to prove his independence of her the audiences unpolitely reply with catcalls. At the last minute, unknown to him, she substitutes a song lie had written for her. The result is that the opera...
...Cinemactress Shirley Temple went a special gold statuette. Said Toastmaster Irvin S. Cobb: "When Santa Claus did you up in a package and dropped you down Creation's chimney, he brought the loveliest Christmas present that I can think of in all the world. . . . I'll give you this, if you'll give me a kiss." Said stoic Shirley Temple, up three hours after bedtime: "Thank you . . . very much." When Claudette Colbert received her prize, she burst into tears. Said Clark Gable: "It's a grand and glorious feeling but I'll be wearing...
