Who Played the Hostess and the Bartender

I cannot find a reference to who played the hostess at the Corner Bar... the lady with the curlers who flirts with Harper & then gets miffed when he goes to "pump" the bartender. Also, the bartender ("I knew you was from Vegas") was a funny guy.

One of the funniest lines follows: "Gee, you must be physic." "Psychic, you mean," corrects the bartender. Haha!

Anyway, anyone know who these actors are? The hostess especially looks familiar.

BTW, I think the "Mrs Kronenberg" in the cast is the Sampsons' housekeeper.

I don't know about the bartender, but the hostess was Paul Newman's first wife (at the time of filming they had been divorced for about eight years).
I don't know her name.

I'm not sure...

Mrs. Kronenburg (housekeeper?) was played by Jaqueline deWitt.

Paul Newman's first wife was Jacqueline Witte.

Maybe you're confusing the two?

That's not true.
