ONE THING about New York
when you visit it, you'll never
come back home without enough
stories to tell . . . The enter-
tainment capitol of the world
can supply enough tales to cover
the Universe.
* * *
DEEMS TAYLOR tells a story
to show that even the greatest
get twinges of jealousy . . . He
attended an audition of young
talent with Alfred Lunt and
Lynn Fontanne . . . The partici-
pants, mostly female, quavered
their \way through the sleep-
walking scene in "Macbeth"
Afterward, she whispered to
Taylor, "Absolutely no talent in
the whole group," and added,
"thank God!"...

I A NEWLY CROWNED Holly-
wood queen, very blonde, very
sexy, told a reporter that her
real love was a 60 year old bank-
er in Wall Street . . . "Every time
he phones me to the coast," she
purred, "I get chinchillas up and
down my spine."

THEY TELL IN show biz cir-
cles about the time Carl Sand-
burg was persuaded to attend
the dress rehearsal of a very
serious play by a very serious
young dramatist; but unfortun-
ately slept through a greater
part of the performance . . . The
outraged dramatist chided him
later, "How could you sleep when
you knew how, much I wanted
your opinion?" . . . Sandburg re-
minded him, "Young man, sleep
IS an opinion."
*
VETERAN STAGE producer
Max Gordon warns all aspiring
new playwrights, "The curtain
goes up and two people are out
on the stage, and somebody bet-
ter say something pretty damn
fast."

HIGH AMONG THE countless
anecdotes about the stuttering
comedian, Joe Frisco, ranks the
one about the time he was re-
galing his friends with a yarn
when a midget walked- over un-
observed, propped his chin on
the edge of the table, and re-
garded Frisco with a melancholy
. Joe took one look,
stare .
gulped convulsively, and
screamed to the waiter, "W-w-
what's the idea? I didn't order
J-j-john the Baptist!"
*
*
THE BIG TOWN still giggles
about the time Monty Woolley
slipped on the stairs of t h e
Times Square subway station
one rainy night when there were
no taxis to be had .. . Halfway
down, he bumped into a stout
lady, who toppled against him,
and landed in his lap at the
bottom of the stairs . . . Woolley
tapped her on the shoulder and
pointed out, "Madam, I'm sorry,
but this is a far as. I go."
*
WHEN THE RODEO was pack-
ing them in at Madison Square
Garden, an elderly lady paused
after the show for a cup of java
in a beanery_down the block .. .
The coffee vas too hot for her
and she put it down with a sigh,
exclaiming, "Oh, dear, my bus
leaves in three minutes." . . . A
polite cowboy promptly handed
his cuR to her, explaining, "Lady
I'll be obliged if you drink this
coffee of mine. It's already
saucered and blowed."
*
*
WHEN I WAS a kid living in a
tenement," says Eddie Cantor,
"we didn't know what an eleva-
tor was. It was a six-story climb
to our little apartment. When I
got the sniffles, Mama would yell
out of the window to the doc-
tor, 'What should I give Eddie?'
and he'd yell back, "Give him a
dose of castor oil and throw
down a dollar'."
* 4 *
A PROMINENT and pulchritu-
dinous starlet in Hollywood was
discovered gazing blankly into
space by Sid Skolsky . "Why
the depression?" asked Sid . .
The starlet sighed deeply, then
explained, "My analyst just told
me I'm really in love with my
father. What'll I do, ,Sid? He's a
married man!"

PUBLICIST LEO GUILD sol-
emnly swears that a new Warner
Brothers contract player, intent
upon making a big impression
on her first visit to Hollywood,
signed the Beverly Wilshire
Hotel register, "Mary Blossom
and made."
* *
JESSE LASKY has been toy-
ing with the idea of filming a
life of James Audubon with Er-
rol Flynn slated to play t h e
noted ornithologist . . "Audu-
bon," said Lasky, "often pur-
sued a specimen for weeks." .. .
"You sure picked the right man
to play him," said a friend.
* *
MAX SOSIN celebrated his
birthday, a couple of weeks ago
. . . and wife, Ruth, cooked up a
little party for him that turned
out into a slam-bang evening of
enjoyment for everyone who at-
tended . . . With Hy Goldman at
the piano, songstress Gertrude
Blum rendering vocal melodies
with Sammy Woolf and Max, it
was a shindig that Max won't be
forgetting for a long time . . .
even if he did have trouble for
a moment, remembering his
right age!

SPEAKING OF P A R T I E S,
when Leon Serling, son of Rube
and Ruth Serling, came home re-
cently on furlough .. . with an
engagement ring for Sandra Co-
hen, daughter of Joe "Jacey"
Cohen hid Ann Cohen . . . he
didn't know what was in store
for him . . . but we'll bet he's
back in camp getting plenty of
rest now! . . . First the Serlings
had a little party for the newly-
engaged couple and then the
Cohens went at it with every-
thing but the bells at Westmin-
ster Abbey . . . Sammy, Hy and
Max headed the talent show
that lasted until the wee hours
of the morning . . . and believe
it or not, the roof was still on
the house ! . . .But what with the
landlord joining in on the fun,
nobody bothered about "the peo
ple downstairs."
