Wisely, Messrs. Walk's & Bischoff left him just the same. Even the sets are careful replicas of those used on the stage. Oiwin begins his zoom to greatness when his wife (Carol Hughes) finds a small black book in his extra pants. Heckled by her suspicion that the female names therein are not the names of horses-and his brother-in-law's belief that they are horses and that he has made a fortune betting on them-Oiwin gets drunk. In the bar of the Lavillere Hotel he gives a casual race-tip to three starving horse...
