WALZER United Press Financial Editor New York OP) For a long time there were those kind souls who felt sorry for the m ' . 1 hears in Wall Street who were being sque e z e d by steadily rising prices.

"I started singing like I never sang before. I dropped the 'body' title and kept. my wardrobe in good taste. "It worked out just great. Since then I've had more offers than I can handle."
