Description

Fifi has her day. Fifi Monteux's canine pride was vindicated when a room clerk at the Worth Hotel handed her a fountain pen Thursday morning and invited her to register as a guest. Pet poodle of Mrs. Pierre Monteux, wife of the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra conductor, Fifi had gained nationwide fame and sympathy last week when the Biltmore Hotel in Los Angeles refused her accommodations and Fifi wrote the manager a huffy letter about it. Published in The Fort Worth Star-Telegram Evening Edition March 27, 1947.
