ms. is engaged to marry 90
year-old Hugo Philips, a
Lloyd's Of London broker.
They plan to marry in July.
Sir Roger Makins is now

Wogan Philips did run
once unsuccessfully for Par

member Of the Communist
Party.
The Standard story quotes
the future bridegroom as say
ing very emphatically he
doesn't share his fathers po-

four-year-old daughter by a
previous marriage.

The hotel apprised Mr..

presence of the picture, and
asked if he would like it
draped.
"Oh, no." replied the Con-
gresham. Leave it there.

Nostalgia flowed like water
at the gathering, which was
occasioned by the fact that

Note: The mail continues hot

the quiz shows.
From Mrs. Mary B., Hyatts-
vile:
"You made quite a point
when you wrote that Charles
Van Doren wasn't asked point
blank to be q party to a fraud.
He was skillfully persuaded,

less with Keats. ! want him
back on TV and I don't mean

From D. T.:
Here's a point you might
well follow up. If an innocent
contestant lost to a person who
was given the answers, does he
have a legal basis for a lawsuit
against the producers, sponsor
and the network"
