Tallulah had adored Ethel Barrymore
since her early days in New York. She saw Barrymore's play Declasse
at least 15 times and could do an devastating impersonation of her (Barrymore
slapped her after she saw her do it at a party, telling her that she
made her look fat). But they remained lifelong friends and they both
loved baseball. (1950)
