A Kinder, Simpler Time Dept.: Your Movie Columnist

Jan. 9, 1947, Hedda Hopper 
Jan. 9, 1947:  "Ohmigosh! The Satevepost has a story on yours truly this week titled 'Gossip Is Her Business.' And Collie Small, who peeked through my keyhole, ain't a bad gossiper himself. One line of his — 'She dictates her column like a small boy delivering the Gettysburg Address atop a burning building' — got me. I'm not sure I liked this version of Hedda Hopper, but it handed me many a laugh."

    Wow. Danny Thomas doing stand-up comedy at Slapsy Maxie’s. What a treat. Not to be missed. That guy should be on TeeVee.
