LONDON CHARITY PLAY
Invitation To U.S. Refused (Rec. 10 p.m.) LONDON, June 26. Mr Lee Soble, the American impresario, who has been trying to get Princess Margaret and a group of Soung English blue-bloods to repeat leir charity production of Edgar Wallace’s “The Frog” at the Hollywood Bowl, California, revealed today that Mr Billy Wallace, Princess Margaret’s most frequent escort, had said “no” to the proposal. Mr Soble said: “Mr Wallace said the cast was afraid of the publicity. They had a bad press for ‘The Frog,’ and they’re shy about doing it again.” But Mr Soble said he was making another offer to Miss Judy Montagu, the play’s organiser.
