Holiday Handout

More often than not, some of the best offstage Broadway humor involves one of the most famed Broadway characters--Tallulah Bankhead. Last week the latest Bankhead story was making the rounds from Lindy's to Sardi's. Tallulah, it seems, was stopped on Fifth Avenue by a Salvation Army lass shaking a tambourine for a holiday handout. Tallulah dipped into her handbag and produced a $50 bill. "Don't even bother to thank me, dahling," she growled as she dropped the bill into the tambourine. "I know what a perfectly ghastly season it's been for you Spanish dancers."
