Try and Stop Me
By BENNETT CERF
JOSH LOGAN, of "Mr. Roberts," "Picnic" and "Sayonara"
fame, has a passion for buying houses, although he's not
always sure what he's going to do with them. He bought one
old mansion up in Connecti
cut recently on the spur of
the moment, explaining air
ily to his wife, Nedda, "I
picked this one up for a
song." "I know," she nod
ded gently, "a $75,000 song."
A burlesque "queen" boned
tip on English history for
months, then entered a, mam
moth TV quiz contest and
walked off with a. 564,000
check. 'This just proves," she
pointed out, "that you can
make much more grinding
than you can bumping.'
"What's become of that gorilla you told ui you were engaged ta
last month ?" asked one chorus gal of another. "I've forgotten all
about him," was the disdainful answer. "He was just a passin?
fian-cy."
