all Of the tribe. Together with two of
her girl companions she forms man
haters' club. But her two charter mem
beTs weaken on their rigid policy and
/ form secret entangling alliances with
Cupid standing by and laughing in his
sleeve
Thus deserted by her companions
n aFEBs, and coniTOLted by su ardent
Sweetheart who didn't know thu mean-
ing of the word no" and whom she
couldn't help but admire, she is forced
10 substitute for her vow Of hatred
the marriage VOW. which wasn't at all
