I found this on another web site discussing Ward's occupation.

"I think Fred and Ward were CIA undercover. Ward and June dressed to the nines around the house in case they had to leave on a moment's notice to meet their fellow spies in a fancy restaurant."

In that case 99% of the people in that era were spies!! That's how a lot of people dressed in those days!

Not my parents. LOL But we weren't rich.
