Go West Young Man Page #3

---

It is. I'm just lookin'

for someone to read it.

Hello?

Hello, Mr. Greenfield?

This is Morgan, A.K.

I'm in Washington.

Listen, I've got

some bad news for you.

Your favorite star is about to step out

with some politician here.

I've tried to keep her out

of the limelight with men.

[f she doesn't do what [ tell her,

you cancel her contract.

That right? Right.

Don't think [ won't.!

Right.

Right-hand man, huh?

Right. Right. Right. Say, I

could have you fired like that.

- If that's the way you feel about it, why don't you?

- I don't know.

I talked it over with myself last night,

and we both went to sleep.

Say, haven't you got some letters

to write or something?

Good idea!

A little wire to A.K.

wouldn't hurt a bit.

Do that.

It'll keep you amused.

I could like that guy if he

wasn't so hard to get along with.

Palace? Matre d', please. Yes, thanks.

Mavis, this is

a positive thrill.

I always say, ''A thrill a day

keeps the chill away.''

Hello? Yes.

This is Francis X. Harrigan.

I'd like a quiet little table

on the Roof for tonight.

Just two. And alone.

You know, seclusive.

Someplace where

we'll be alone.

Hello, hello. Amalgamated

Press? Well, listen.

Mavis Arden is the guest of nominee

Harrigan at the Palace Roof tonight.

The press is invited.

Hello, Operator.

And the reportorial staff of the

Unin News Service is invited.

Palace Roof.

Okay, we'll cover the story.

Hello, Paramount News?

Well, here's a hot one for you.

Mavis Arden, the movie star,

and Francis X. Harrigan...

are inviting the press to meet them

at the Palace Roof tonight.

You ought to get

some great pictures.

Well, I'll say one thing for these stars

- They're not under contract, and they can stay out as long as they want.

It's great to be with you

again, Mavis darling.

I haven't had much time for

romance since I last saw you.

I've devoted myself entirely

to my career. So have I.

But sometimes I do hear

the call of the irresistible.

Don't you?

Yes.

But in two hours you'll be on your way

to Harrisburg, going out of my life again.

That's in two hours from now.

Me too.

Oh. No.

All right.

Something seems to tell me

I'll be going to Harrisburg.

Well, phone me before you leave.

I'll be stopping

at the Penn Harris Hotel.

You know, darling-

I know nothing. You tell me.

That's fine.

Now, will you give us one with your arms

around Miss Arden? What is this? What is this?

Did you-

No. Did you?

How about a story for my paper? How long

have you known Mr. Harrigan, Miss Arden?

- When is it going to happen, Miss Arden?

- Happen? Why, nothing's gonna happen.

Mr. Harrigan and I are friends,just friends. Aren't we, honey

- Uh, Mr. Harrigan?
