Another Mix Mix-up
SPEAKING of Tom, he doesn't seem to be able to keep out of the papers. His latest publicity concerns a little fist fight between himself and Will Morrisey, the cabaret entertainer. Will says that Tom beat him up for no reason at all, and Tom says Will called him dirty names and he had to defend himself.
