Busted Zipper
Figures in Firing
Of Cunard Skipp er
LONDON, 1The British high
court will be asked to rule soon
whether Capt. James Armstrong
of the Cunard liner Britannica
was wrongfully dismissed.
Armstrong, 55, filed suit claim
ing damages from Cunard for^
wrongfully firing him after 30
years with the steamship line.
He was fired after a voyage
from New York to Liverpool last
June. His friends call it “The
Jealousy Case.” They say two
women passengers complained
that other women aboard got
more than a fair share of the cap
tain’s hospitality.
These friends are trying to
trace Susan Silverstone, 30, beau
tiful brunette wife of a New York
architect, to testify on the cap
tain’s behalf.
Mrs. Silverstone, now thought
to be vacationing in Spain, sat at
the captain’s table throughout the
voyage.
Armstrong’s friends believe the
complaints started because one
evening in the dining room Mrs.
Silverstone’s zipper burst and her
dress slipped. She spent the rest
of the meal swathed in a fur coat.
The zippe.r burst, Armstrong’s
friends say, only because the
dress was extremely tight fitting.
Armstrong had nothing to do with
it, they say, and in fact was not
in the dining room when it hap
pened.
Armstrong was one of Cunard’s
senior captains and was regarded
by colleagues as booked to take
command eventually of the Queen
Elizabeth, the line’s flagship.
