We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.
Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

The road didn’t lead to Singapore, Zanzibar, or Morocco, but to Century City, where Bob Hope was given a black tie dinner on the eve of departure for his 21st overseas Christmas tour. Proceeds for the $500 a plate dinner went toward construction of a modern USO facility in Los Angeles. Bob’s companion on so many roads, Dorothy Lamour, was celebrity chairman. The third traveler, Bing Crosby, according to Bob, “couldn’t make it as there was an early bed check at Sun City.” Giving the evening more power than the usual Hollywood party were such dignitaries as Sen. Barry Goldwater and Gen. William Westmoreland. Adding glamour were Marilyn Maxwell, Debbie Reynolds, Ann Blyth; for fun — Martha Raye, Jimmy Durante and Irene Ryan; providing a nostalgic highlight - Frances Langford singing “I’m In the Mood For Love” just as she did on Bob’s first overseas trek during World War II. Others eating $500 worth of food included the Frankie Avalons, married 9 years and expecting their 7th baby; a Dame, feeling no pain, Judith Anderson, and Perle Mesta, in from Washington with astrologer Carroll Righter (I don’t think it’s serious between them). * * * Valerie and Nat Dumont have long been recognized as leading Southland hosts and it was easy to see why at their holiday dinner dance. The Dumonts have a gift of turning elegance into fun. They took over the Cave des Roys, told guests to dress comfortably and mod and what could have been a stuffy party in less capable hands turned out to be delightful, because it was so well planned. And all in a few days! The soiree served several purposes. It honored two of the hosts’ friends, London financier Sirdid Aly Aziz visiting en route to Hong Kong, and Madame Elvira Monahan from Manila. It also celebrated the 25th wedding anniversary of Stuart Martin and his Angela. Angela (Greene) and I worked together in an acting group 20 years ago. She is just as beautiful today.
