Don't go near the water

This is the hilarious novel that all America is laughing with — the ribald and raucous adventures of a group of Navy public relations men who are sitting out the war on a fabulous Pacific Island. Now an Avon Production, presented by M-G-M, starring Glenn Ford, Gia Scala, Anne Francis and Keenan Wynn. "If a funnier, more enjoyable, more deeply satisfying, more literate topical satire . . . has been published in a long, long I time, this reviewer can't name it." — N.Y. Times Book Review
