...Susie McNamara every Sunday night (7:30 p.m., E.S.T.), Ann is the "private right arm" of a show-business impresario, a glib, high-spirited girl in her thirties, who gets in & out of scrapes with sexy relish. Unlike Maisie, Susie dresses well, and "we try not to make her stupid. There are 5,000,000 secretaries in this country, and we want some sort of sympathetic association." After only a couple of months on the air, Private Secretary-a sort of junior-size I Love Lucy-has built up an audience of a good portion of those...

Wonderfully French, Zsa Zsa Gabor sings and twitters her way through the role of Jane Avril, the toast of the Moulin Rouge. And Suzanne Flon, the woman who loves embittered Lautrec too late, is sadly appealing as one of the few unkept women in Paris...
...fitted out a penthouse over his office. Even when he travels, as he often does, to Europe, the U.S. and South America, Lobo deals in sugar day & night by international telephone. "This business needs me," he says. His name in Spanish means "wolf"-"lone wolf," he explains with relish. Evenings, he says, when the last of the day's 500 cables have been answered, "I like to walk alone from my office to the harbor. There I can sit on the edge of a pier, gaze at the lapping waves, and think about the future of sugar...
