Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall

Sir:

It has come to my attention that in your Current & Choice section, Lauren Bacall has consistently been left out of the cast of Key Largo.

Inasmuch as there are those of us in Hollywood, Miss Bacall among them, who would rather make Current & Choice than win an Academy Award or make Men of Distinction, won’t you please include her in the cast of Key Largo in Current & Choice just once, as she is my wife and I have to live with her. Miss Bacall is extremely tired of being labeled et al.

Humphrey Bogart, BEVERLY HILLS, CALIF.
