[0:02] What is the situation with regard to the entertainment?
[0:04] Have they decided?

[0:17] The one that occurred...
[0:18] The one that occurred from New York, uh, the one that you went to her show, uh...
[0:22] Oh, Debbie Reynolds?
[0:23] Debbie Reynolds.
[0:24] That's who the Johnny Man Singers, that's who Pat wanted, I guess, and Julie.
[0:29] The one thing that occurred to me that I should have mentioned earlier, who would be really great, and not because of his ideology, because he's been to Russia and here, is Danny Kaye, you know?
[0:40] Yeah, well, they were going to try to get him.

[0:50] Oh, okay.
[0:52] Well, Johnny Mann and Debbie Reynolds will be fine if she doesn't mind.
[0:56] I don't know what they were checking that out today.
