Wants to Take Orders
She recorded then-this was
before she had met Clifton-"I
had some kind of romantic idea
about the one, who would come
along and sweep me off my feet
some enchanted evening" as
they say in the song.
II guess the main trouble was
that this nice and eligible and
faithful swain just hadn't swept
me off my feet, He was inclined
to let me do anything l wanted
to, and ! think at my advanced
age of 32) what the kind of man
who will sweep me off my feet is
the one who will tell me what to
do in no uncertain terms and see
that l do it"
Not long afterWard she went
to that dinner party.
In the final pages of her story
she said that as newspaper
man, foreign correspondent and
now assistant to the foreign edi-
tor of the New York Times, Cliff
is accustomed to making the de-
cisions-and I'm learning to
abide by them
