"She had a blank expression of psychopathic intensity - 'the coldest-looking face I ever saw' - but even when she reached into a closet and brought out a .22 caliber rifle Waitkus was more bewildered than alarmed; after all it was probably just a gag. Then, said Waitkus, 'before I could say anything else, whammy!' A bullet ripped through his right lung, lodging near the spine. As he lay on the floor Waitkus moaned, 'Baby, what did you do that for?' The girl knelt and held his hand, then called the hotel authorities." - Life Magazine (June 27, 1949, 'Silly Honey With a Gun', Page 36)
