"I Was There--Horseshoe Hymie has the luck to catch
Lana Turner and Ty Power out on their first
public date night"
August 1947

I was at Ciro's on my regular rounds of the nightclubs. Nothing much doing, so I phoned La Reu, Mocambo and the Chanteclair to ask who was there.
Horseshoes! The headwaiter at the Chanteclair said Lana and Ty just walked in. I took my car and beat it out to the Strip to this newest lush dine-and-dance spot.
Sure enough, there were Lana and Ty. Strictly a cameramen's field day because this was just about the first time they had been seen publicly together in Holllywood since their hectic romance had blossomed. Anyway, the first time we boys had caught them-and you know how we hate to hear about romance and then go camera-empty. And now here they were.
Seems since it was maid's night out, Ty had picked Lana up and they had dropped by for a 'quick bite.'
Ty and I gabbed about our stay in Mexico when Ty was on location for 'Captain for Castile.' He thanked me for the swell layout of color shots I took on that trip. That gave me my chance to ask for some pictures. Both he and Lana were mighty nice, and I could take as many as I wanted, as long as they didn't have to pose.
That's what I call horseshoes!
