It is possible the EP isn't a signature. Eric Porter is a guess based on the initials and general style, although he had possibly moved out of comics by the late 1950s.

Sandra is interested in Don from the broadcasting station so tries to write a winning slogan their competition. She overhears the winner didn’t put a name on the entry and convinces the station it was hers. The prize is a copywriting job Sandra can’t do and she uses Don’s ideas. Her deceit reaches a crisis when the real prize winner turns up and Don can’t help her meet a deadline. It’s time for a change. She turns in her own work, makes things right with the real winner and leaves. Don tracks her down—her last project was very good. The company wants her back and so does Don.

Rising-star Karen loses two lovers and nearly her career by being herself. Martha, Karen’s housekeeper and confidant, advises her to hide her sincerity and just show glamour.

Karen concludes, “True love cannot come to any girl who is not first true to herself…”
