Description
Gloria Graves, 19-year old girl whose idea of fun is to be "buried alive" for days in a steel coffin with only a narrow food and air shaft connecting her with the world, appeared in court and had her trial delayed. Miss Graves shows the court how she sleeps serenely in her coffin away from earth's turmoil.
