Stayed uptown because I had to meet Nicola Bulgari at 12:30 with Bob. After we saw the jewel collection he took us to the Knickerbocker Club which was really great. It’s across from where the Dodge house was that’s now torn down. The food was great there, mashed potatoes and rice pudding and eggs. Bulgari was saying things like “Hide the tape” and “They won’t let you do that if they see that,” and he was acting like “this isn’t that kind of a place, it’s too high-class.” Like he didn’t want to get voted out. It was too corny. After lunch we went into another room for an hour. I don’t know why, he just wanted to blabber. He’s (laughs) against Communism.
