"Rodgers," she [recalls, "thought my voice was too high; Ham^w^tein thought] i my voice was too low. Josh>,Lo- gan thought I had.no voice at | all." She then sings "I'll Be Seeing You" and proves with ingra tiating humor that Rpdgers, Hammerstefri and Logan knew what they were talking about. "Actually," she says at the end of her number, "my voice isnt as bad as it sounds." She's right; iwhile it isn't the kind of a voice iyou'd enjoy hearing in a canoe it could be awfully romantic inj a rowboat with loose oarlocks. After singing, Miss Bankhead steps in front of the curtain and re-enacts the classical dramatic scene penned'by Dorothy Parker, I "the telephone call." Never have we seen a nightclub audience, particularly one with itchy palms anxious to get into action m the adjoining casino, remain so Ihushed and applaud so vigorously afterward. Always the superb showman, Tallulah changes the pace m breathtaking fashion by going into an original satire on rambling that's too adult forto--, vision but custom-tailore^>r I Vegas.

But not Frisco. The stuttering comedian tapped the great tenor on the shoulder and said, "Lookie here, Rick, I just want to give you a tip.
