Women drivers copped first place in two of the six classifications. Stunt Driver Patricia Jones drove her Dodge Coronet to victory in the Low Medium-Price Class; Hollywood Secretary Mary Hauser zipped her Chevrolet Biscayne into top honors in the Low-Price, 6-Cylinder Class. Only a broken tie rod and penalty for lost time while she repaired it kept Restaurant Owner Mary Davis of Hollywood, in a Plymouth Belvedere, from winning first place in a third class. (She placed second.) In 13 individual races, in which men and women raced against each other and drove identical makes and models...
...daily attack on the intricate task of translating Zsa Zsa onto the pages of a book. Ex-Newsman Frank (New York Journal-American) comes to the task with impressive qualifications. A veteran ghostwriter for wartime marines and submariners (Out in the Boondocks, U.S.S.

Frankel promptly enraged the staff with a speech declaring that the editorial and advertising departments should cooperate more closely. When the astounded Wiese asked Langlie if he favored such a tie-in, the Governor said yes, added that Frankel was getting an office on the editorial side to keep an eye on things. With that, Wiese decided that it was time to quit, and the parade...
...wife Bunny, whom he had met at Cornell. "We got the reputation of being an off-beat book store," Hillman recalled. "National magazines came occasionally to try and do a story on an avant garde Village store but I usually discouraged them.
