No Princess, No Pea

Stubby, Ohio-born Earl Wilson calls himself the "Saloon Editor" and his job the "Booze Beat." For six months he has written the New York Post's "It Happened Last Night" (nightclub column). He writes in a refreshing, conversational style. Last week, he refreshingly wrote :

"People are always asking me what I do in nightclubs. 'Don't be stupid,' I reply, 'I get stinko!'. . . This morning ... I did something more. I sat in a seat in the Champagne Room at El Morocco which was still warm from having held the posterior of the ex-King of England. . . . Although the seat had rubbed and been rubbed by royalty, in a quite literal sense, I didn't notice when I rubbed it, and it rubbed me, that it felt different than any other seat. However, it may be that I am insensitive. . . ."
