Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: Where are your parents tonight?' Always ready to see the funny side of things, Eartha Kitt yesterday couldn't help but be amused by the fact that she was so engrossed in conversation with Star staff writer Frank Rasky that she was late getting to O'Keefe Centre for her matinee performance in A Musical Jubilee. It was first time in 30 years in show business that she was late for a performance. Blame Rasky, not her, folks.
