titl ed "VVond e rFu l On e." W hil e th e publishe r
did not bill it as the su cces sor to "Three o 'Clo ck
'in the ::Vlorning," the iliternational waltz suc­
cess, it did let it be kno\vn that it had unu s ual
possi bil i ti es.
Th e campa ig n 011 "vVonde riu l One," there­
fore, has b een continued throug hout the above
