It was spiked by the presence of swart Comic Alan Carney, and there was a fine moment when haughty Margaret Dumont shattered a cocktail glass with a sour note in her rendition of Over the Waves.

But the Army kept asking for more, and still more Freon. WPB tightened up. Kinetic now has under way another 75% plant expansion. But for the next six months, at least, civilians who want Freon for "comfort cooling" will do without. Notable victims: Price Boss Prentiss Brown, Congressman Sol Bloom, whose office air conditioning was cut off fortnight ago when the Freon leaked...
