At The Stork Club

The "autograph hound" comment is priceless...



THE LIEUTENANT STEPS OUT: Robert Montgomery, now a naval lieutenant in the Morale Division, is a New York night time visitor at the Stork Club, where he relaxed in light chatter with Tallulah Bankhead. Montgomery, who has learned that his naval uniform does not scare away autograph hounds, was one of the first top-notch movie stars to engage in World War II. He drove an ambulance during the Battle of France, and since then, has given up his career in favor of the American war effort. He is stationed in Washington, D.C.

Thanks to Renee for the photo.
