Opera soprano Maria Callas holds her poodle, Toy, as she appears in New York Supreme Court for a pre-trail hearing on a claim of her former agent for $300,000, Dec. 20, 1956. E. Richard Bagarozy claims the money, ten percent of three million dollars he said Callas has made since 1947, is due him for services as personal representative. In reply, the singer said the agent breached the agreement by failing to "use his best efforts" to further her career. Man at right is unidentified. (AP Photo/Anthony Camerano)
