It seems EF decided not the beat the crap out of Sonja Henie’s husband, Dan Topping, after being caught kissing in the back room – The link here doesn’t say it all but in watching a Bio on Sonja the other night, it mentions that this happened due to the fact Sonja wanted to get her husband back for overly flirting with other females at the party…..
Well we all know our man Flynn, always one to oblige concerning good looking females. It seems he was a real good sport about the whole thing.

Sonja may have been skating on thin ice with Dan Topping, Sergio. He was no lightweight, and not someone to cross. As this story from your old stomping grounds amply illustrates, he had a long reach, even from Woodlawn:

Here he is at another fight with Sonja:

I believe you’re right, TZ. The release of Barry Adler was regarded “a stench in the nostrils of justice.”

Ex- Marine Dan Topping must have packed a mean punch to stop Errol with one to the kisser, Sarge Sergio. Our man Flynn never let friendship come between him and a good fight. He liked to tussle with his buddies and got it on with Frederick McEvoy, John Huston and Jock Easton.

Very true, ringsideheinz. But, if Marine-Man Topping toppled a drinkin’ Flynn for flirting with Mrs. T, imagine what he wanted to do to this teetotaling tyrant!

Sonja,’s book explains it all and she has nice words for Errol and nasty for her husband
