...Grandchildren. The wedding dress was chosen several weeks ago in the bride-to-be's bedroom, where, as Luci popped out of the adjoining sitting room wearing one or another of the gowns under consideration, her mother would nibble a sandwich and sip ice tea between such comments as "A lovely neckline" or "That detail is pretty." One outfit prompted Lady Bird to exclaim: "That's an elegant dress-the kind you would hand down to your grandchildren." And that was the one Luci selected.

To publicize his shows, Merrick with truly hippopotamic cheek has sent sandwich-board men into the streets of Manhattan encased in portable placarded pissoirs; persuaded President Johnson to accept the title tune of Hello, Dolly! (a Merrick show) as his campaign song; and conducted a hilarious war of words with the theater crit ics that recently came to a headline-grabbing climax...
