...zeese for a gormin' tidric. You from Belk?" We repeated our question, more slowly. He seemed to understand. "There's a nonch sluggin' nook ye can pike to," he said and gestured up the road. We thanked him and went back to our rented car, which wouldn't start. Finally, we walked the way he pointed, found the rickety New Boonville Hotel, roused a pale clerk, and were shown to a room where the floor had the solidity of a trampoline and the only decoration was a 1948 calendar from a Chinese laundry in San Francisco...
...wouldn't pay much attention to those stories about Ramparts' troubles -you've heard those kind of rumors all the time about Collier's and the Saturday Evening Post," Ramparts Editor Warren Hinckle III quipped at a meeting of magazine editors in Manhattan last week.

"They told me they wouldn't have me. Incompatible and everything, you know. I really wasn't their type." Actually she wasn't anybody's type. Underdeveloped, undernourished, she found that only her family and her fantasies could tune...
...disintegrating marriage has several breaking points: the most obvious occurred during the filming of Rosemary's Baby with Director Roman Polanski. Sinatra tried to get her to leave Rosemary and join The Detective; she wouldn't. By night he telephoned her to say that he couldn't live without her; by day he planned divorce proceedings. Mia heard about them not from her husband but from his attorney. Coolly she announced that she wanted no financial settlement?which apparently stunned the singer more than a countersuit for a million. After the lawyer's visit, she took Sinatra's private plane...
