by Winifred Wolfe ‧ RELEASE DATE: July 7, 1958
Margaret Wheeler, 21 and from Wilkes-Barre, has a love affair with New York City and falls in love with more than one man - to discover the man she hates is the one for her. From the ""nunnery"" (a girls' hotel), to sharing an apartment in the Village, to her own place uptown, Meg, who is a lively pilot to her own flights of fancy, decides that ""holy matrimony is not immoral"" and manages to avoid bed before she is wed. Her campaign for Ross Tate leaves her her job with a market research organization lands her in jail when field work leads to interviewing prostitutes and she inveigles Miles Doughton, head of the firm, to depth probe his brother, Evan, so that Meg may manipulate him into proposing....So she gets Miles. A giddy to silly tour of a working girl's life in the big city, this is stretched a bit too far to be wholly amusing.
