So Noel Coward is to be paid $35,000 a week for a Las Vegas, Nev., night club appearance.

Gat It Right Note it said that the novelist, George Sand, habitually wore "slacks." She didn't. She wore trousers. Slacks worn by women are designed for female wear. The construction is different than that of trousers which are definitely designed for male wear. Balzac,' describing a call on Mme. Sand, wrote, "I found George Sand smoking an after dinner cigar in front of a fire in an immense empty room. She wore lovely yellow slippers, be witching stockings and red trousers."
