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.

Celeste Holm, Tom D'Andrea, Johnnie Johnston, Sonny Tufts, Bill Demarest enjoy the header Eddie Bracken took into Bob Hope's birthday cake. WATCHING the recent "Movie Star World Series" at Los Angeles' Wrigley Field, was like trying to keep track of every clown in a circus. A fan could hardly beg an autograph without missing a gag by the stars who played to benefit the City Of Hope Hospital and Motion Picture Relief Fund. Laughwise, it was the ball game of the year ... all hits, and each team a winner. Gloria De Haven's in Bob Hope's way as he fights Sonny Tufts for the bat. Ava Gardner roots lustily while Vic Mature and Bob Hope vie for first at bat as the Comedians vs. the Leading Men charity game is about to get under way. Kirk "Superman" Allyn doesn't look like any pitcher Bob Hope ever saw before. Kathryn Grayson, Johnnie Johnston, Ed Bracken, Sonny Tufts, Don O'Connor are losers. Bob Hope almost slid thru his pants going into home.
