boss, Don Porter. in what will
be the last of The Ann Sothern
Show" unless another sponsor
picks up the series. Ann and
Don have been flirting around
the edges for almost a decade,
for many years in The Private
Secretary" TV show, and for
the past years in The Ann
Sothern Show" They decided to
do the whole thing magnif-
icently, with a wedding. &.
And they will both live wealthily

Mrs. Neuberger hasn't kept

She likes the challenge Of

Just as amazing has been
Mrs. Neuberger's ability to
match the faces of her col

designations as Junior" or

Only Senate veterans
usually possess this knack.
Most freshmen duck the pro-

recognize a Senator by his
