iuve, the Yiddish stage, young
Muni one night donned a false
beard and, at the ripe age of 12,
substituted for an ailing thespian
in the Cleveland engagement of a
Weisenfreund farce, "Two Corpses
at Breakfast." He never again left
the world of theater, in his young-
er years preferably appearing as
tottering, stooping old men.
The late Maurice Schwartz, for
many years a friend of this col-
umnist, told me that Mama Wei-
senfreund brought her offspring to
an interview with him at the Yid-
dish Art Theater in New York,
because the slim young man was
much too shy to come alone. As
a result, Schwartz put him into
the original production of Sholem
Aleichem's "Hard to be a Jew,"
wherein the ambitious youngster
tried to upstage the capricious pro-
ducer-director-star many times.

HOLLYWOOD—Five-time Acad-
emy-Award nominee Paul Muni,
who died last month in California,
was on stage and screen a richly-
phrased, full-blooded, often flam-
boyant character; in private life
he remained throughout shy and
restrained, avoiding public appear-
ances, interviews, night c 1 u b s,
restaurants and gossip columns.
He met his wife, Bella Finkel,
when both of them appeared in
the romantic leads in a Yiddish
edition of Sig mund Romberg's
"Maytime" 40 years ago.
Born in Lemberg Sept. 22, 1897
(that would have made him 70 this
month), son of Salli and Phillip
Weisenfreund, he was brought to
the U.S. at an early age. His par-
ents wanted him to become a
violinist. But when his father, who
at one time owned a nickelodeon
in New York, returned to his first

By HERBERT G. LUFT

It was Sam Harris who saw
Paul Muni on the Yiddish stage
in Boston in 1926 and gave him
his first English-speaking role in
the Broadway show, "We Ameri-
cans," in which Paul Muni once
more essayed the familiar role
of "an elderly Jew." In "Four
Walls" Muni rose to prominence;
then followed in quick succession
"This Was A Man," "Rock Me,
Julie" and "Yesterday's Magic."
In 1932, Paul Muni sky-rocketed
to world recognition as the gang-
ster chief in Howard H ughe s'
"Scarface," a picture released for
the then only 27-year-old producer
by United Artists. I saw Muni in
"I am a Fugitive from t a Chain
Gang" while still in Germany. It
was the only picture ever shown
in the Third Reich. The name and
films of Paul Muni shortly after-
wards were banned by the Nazis
because the actor had publicly
spoken up against the oppression
of Jews and others of the Reich's
racial and religious minorities.
Warners' won a "Best Picture
nomination for "I am a Fugitive"
for 1932-33 and Muni gathered a
second "Oscar" nomination. The
first had been for "The Valiant."
In 1959, Muni accepted a mo-
tion picture assignment for Colum-
bia for which he was destined to
win his final "Best Actor" Acad-
emy Award nomination. It was
also to be his last movie. For "The
Last Angry Man," Muni literally
returned to the locale of his earli-
est success, the Jewish neighbor-
hood of Brooklyn and the Lower
East Side.

BIG NEWS OF Twyckingham
subdivision in Southfield is the hook
and ladder fire truck owned by
Dave Hermilin and Gil Silverman
. . - The big red fire fighter is of
the '30's vintage and one owned
by the Pontiac Fire Dept. . . . It's
the pride of ,the neighborhood —
especially the kids, who take much
glee in the rides given them up and
down the street by Dave and Gil
. . . Imagine the sensation Dave
caused recently, when he brought
it to Cong. Shaarey Zedek to pick
up his youngsters, plus the other
kids in the driving group .. .
Their two-year-old son, Brian, is
the mascot . . . Gil recently took
the fire truck out to the Roper
City and Country Day School,
where his three-year-old son Eric,
became the hero as 70 youngsters
went for the ride of their little
lives . . .
NOTE TO . . . Jack Milan . . .
Remember, we've got a bet ... a
free car wash when the Tigers
win the pennant . . . or double if
they don't . . . We made it at the
Jewish National, Fund Testimonial
for Lou Berry.
PEARL FENKELL, former De-
troiter now living in Miami Beach,
is in town for a few weeks, after
stay in Palm Springs, Calif., and
New York . . . Pearl is here to
visit mother and father, Gertrude
and Carl Rozner and daughter and
son-in-law, Marlene and Dr. Sid-
ney Gilbert . . . While in Calif.,
Pearl stayed with another ex-De-
troiter, Mary Wirt . . . Too many
Detroiters to mention were at The
Spa in Palm Springs, says Pearl.
MARK FISCHER tells of suc-
cessful pop artist friend who held
his first exhibit in his native town
. . . One woman said, in dear
tones, "My, that's a beautiful paint-
ing." . . . The woman standing
next to her turned and said, "Oh,
are you a relative, too?" (Mark
insists it didn't happen to him!)
