THE GENTLEMAN who tipped me off about the Ridgmount Street Arrest, on which I commented in August (p151), tells me he cannot find out further how the matter progresses or when it may come to trial. Not being on the staff there, he is not, of course, in close touch; I mention this because the LA frequently reveals an indiscreet interest in my private gossip‐lines to the profession, which do—they may learn with surprise—stretch to both of the principal genders, and include many not on the association's payroll.
