And did two opponents ever give the same version of a row? "We were seated at the same table," Hutton told me. "Connors kept discoursing at length about the metabolism and fat problems of an actor in his thirties. It isn't a problem with me. I didn't pay too much attention. I guess Connors felt rejected.

Anyway, he said 'I hear you are a big shot in the Then he got more sarcastic and said "we'll meet outside." I was ready to square off then and there, but my date, Judy Johnson, cooled me down, I'm glad now because it would have been stupid to fight during Nat's performance. When the show was over, I offered to shake hands, but Connors refused. Cooper came over and talked Connors into leaving. I guess Jackie was the hero of the day." "He's full of bull!" Chuck told me. "The simple truth is he interrupted a serious conversation between me and my wife (Kamala Devi).

He was talking in an area of levity. I asked him would he mind just letting my wife and me talk. There was nothing said about going outside. He had plenty of opportunity to react right there to any sarcasm of mine. And he didn't.

Any time he wants me, he can find me!" I DON'T KNOW how many peo-pie oticed it, but Zsa Zsa Gabor, with husband Herbert Hutner, also was on the newsy side at the opening. She was in her stocking feet. "I may have broken a toe on my right foot," she said. "Either I did it helping the movers, or my husband broke it while I was a-sleep. I couldn't get on my shoes.

I was asleep. Dollink, it was wonderful! Here I was wearing a new sapphire and diamond necklace dressed like a queen on top, like a tpeasant below."

SINCE attorney Guy Ward got that fat property settlement (more than $750,000 plus alimony and child support) for Gloria Hecht, it now can be announced that Gloria will marry New Y'ork attorney Franklin Desser. Her ex-husband, producer Harold Hecht, with whome she had been fighting it out in court for years, already has re-wed. "Franklin and I hope to marry in New York on my birthday, Aug. 3," Gloria tells me.

Rockefeller of New York had accepted an invitation to be a speaker at a $1000-a-plate testimonial dinner to Senator Barry Goldwater of Arizona. But the bargain rate feeding was held in the Sheraton Park Hotel (Thursday) night without the presence of America's most celebrated honeymooner. The Governor did not firm up his remarriage plans until after he had accepted the Goldwater invita-tion.

When he finally did set the date with Margaretta Fitler Murphy he remembered it would conflict with his date with the man most prominently mentioned as his rival for the Republican Presidential nomination in 1964. Rocky didn't want to offend Barry at this stage of the game so he put in a personal phone call to the Senator here in Washington to explain he couldn't be at the testimonial because he was getting married. The phone was answered in the Goldwater apartment at the Westchester by the beautiful Mrs. Peggy Goldwater. The following dialogue resulted: THE GOVERNOR: "Hello, this Is Nelson Rockefeller Mrs.

Goldwater: "Yeht I know. This is Mamie Eisenhower." The Governor: "Listen, Peggy, this is Nelson Rockefeller. Is Bar-ry there?" Mrs. Goldwater: "Repeat that a-gain. I want to listen to your voice more closely." THE ABOUT to-be bridegroom repeated it.

Margaret Witze put it on a corner of her desk, figuring the owner would soon come to reclaim it. About a week later, a woman came for the slip, but it had vanished from the desk. The woman returned a second time in tears, saying the laundry wouldn't release her wash without the slip. Mrs.

They're sailing now. It happens every four years, about a year and some months before the next presidential election. They line the rails, chanting a political anthem composed in part of exaggerated charges and preposterous claims. This makes it doubly hard on the earnest voter along the shore. He wants to separate fact from fiction, the bland from the blatant, and the true from the trite.

But he has a time, close-up or with field-glasses, telling Democrats from Republicans since they're such look-alikes.

Now, Miss Hewitt's is so posh that it's painful. You don't have to be a daughter of a DAR member to get in but almost. It is a little surprising, actually, that the tall, slender Lee was allowed in, in the first place, since her mother, Patricia, had been a professional actress. "And that's why I almost got tossed out." she grinned.

The latest is to be found at the Soviet Embassy in Washington. One of the functions at the embassy has been to distribute free of charge to the press translations of speeches of Russian officials and reports published in the Soviet press.

However, no more. From now on. there will be a charge of $25 a year for this service. In fact, these representatives of the "workers' paradise" blandly add that the price may be either raised or lowered, depending on the demand. In other words, they're resorting to that old capitalist trick of working on the basis of supply and demand and charging what the traffic will bear.

Oddly enough, this newest evidence of infiltration of decadent capitalist thinkig into the pres-tine minds of Communist officialdom doesn't even bother them. The officials concerned are perfectly willing to talk about the profit motive that is impelling them. Finally, they don't even see anything wrong in trying to make the press pay for a service that by all standards should be free. After all, distributing news and commentary about Russian developments, occurrences, views and advances, is precisely what they were sent here to do in the first place.
