Trujillo’s Crew Loses
No Time In Covering
Up “Zsa Zsa Slept Here”
SAN PEDRO, Calif., UP) — Peo
ple were pointing at Gen. Rafael
Trujillo’s yacht, the Angelita, and
laughing. Crewman couldn’t fig
ure out why.
When a boatload of news pho
tographers chugged up and be
gan photographing the gleaming
white yacht from the harbor
side, a crewman leaned way out
over the rail.
There, painted near the water
line—where the deck overhang
hid it from above—were these
words:
“Zsa Zsa slept here.”
In a burst of energy not pre
viously displayed by the yacht’s
80-man crew, painters soon cov
ered the words. Harbor officials
said the sign was apparently ap
plied from a small boat, probably
with a spray can, during the
night.
Zsa Zsa Gabor was the actress
who introduced the son of the
Dominican Republic’s strongman
to Hollywood society.
