CITY CENTE MATINEE T FBEDBIO Scene : The garden of a five-acre estate in La Canada, Calif oxnia. In the background, an enormous rambling house rather pointedly designed to resemble medieval Italian architecture. In the middle distance, a large swimming pool. A number of bicycles, carts and other childhood appurtenances are scattered about. A Labrador retriever named 'Bruce ' putters aimlessly among the .shrubbery. A little girl, about nine years old and very pretty, watches him from the edge of the pool, where she sits drying herself in the late afternoon sun. Your correspondent walks up to her and speaks : Sharp e ; Hello. You're Kristin Morgan, aren't you? I'm Howard Sharpe, and I've come to talk to your dad. Kris : (Formally) How do you do, Mr. Sharpe. Daddy and mother are out shopping for dresses for me, but if you want to wait for a little they'll be back. And I'll talk to you. Sharpe ; That's awfully sweet of you. (Dropping onto a lawn couch and lighting a cigarette) Tell me — does your dad usually go along with your mother when she shops for you? Kris ; It's the other way around. Daddy buys all my clothes, always — but sometimes mother remembers the measurements better, so he takes her with him. ( Sighing) He brings just boxes of things home. But do you know, his shoulder's been hurting him the last few days? He hurt it on a horse. Sharpe ; That's too bad. Kris : He works too hard, keeping us all like this. ( She is a precocious child, and now her eyes flash with resolve) Honestly, I'd rather be dressed in rags ! Sharpe ; The sentiment does you credit, darling, but the last time I saw your father he seemed to be having a wonderful time. Kris : I don't think it's having a wonderful time to have a hurt shoulder. Sharpe ; Well, you've got me there. Does your dad always pick out just the kind of clothes you like to wear? Kris ; Why, yes, of course. Sharpe ; I'll bet the salesladies help him. Kris ; I'll bet they don't. What would a saleslady know about me? Say, do you know what I'm doing? Sharpe ; What? _ Kris ; Learning to sew buttons. I've sewn all the buttons on Daddy's shirt for two months now. Sharpe : Commendable, , I *m sure. And on Stanley Junior's shirts, too? Kris : Well — sometimes. I did one this morning. He's off on a (Continued on page 96)
