undoubtedly referring to LIOILFEUCI-I'I'92ia'oYGER and CHARIES 14-LUGHT01-E, the movie
actor. Inasmuch as both FEUCIIT92InHGER and IAUGIZTOII are not lmo-on to have

to be had in tho future upon hcr return to this 2.1-ea. It :r.i;h-L: also he noted
that tno rcfcronco to FLORENCE is believed to re-for to FLOREEICZ HOLOLFA, los
