Hope Peeved by Customs Detention on Christmas Tour
Bob Hope complained about the customs hold in Los Angeles where he and 60 entertainment teammates including Lana Turner faced a prolonged screening after a Guam flight. Hope said a relative in the U.S. Customs Service was visiting while the group endured hours of baggage checks and questions before release. The troupe had been on a 12 day tour of military bases in Japan Korea and other Oriental posts with daily performances.
