THAT'S SHOW BUSINESS
It’s All In a Feud, A Slezak
Hathaway Feud, That Is
BY DICK WILLIAMS
It is not always sweetness and
light on movie sets between di-
rectors and stars. There have
been many classic feuds and
long-drawn-out battles which
ended in stalemates.
The three directors consider-
ed by many actors as the most
difficult to get along with are
Henry Hathaway, Otto Premin-
ger and John Farrow.
In his 30 years of acting, port-
ly, good-natured Walter Slezak
claimed he had never had di-
rector trouble until he collided
head-on with Hathaway on an
African saga called “White
Witch Doctor.” Susan Hayward
and Robert Mitchum were also
starred, and the rest of the cast
were negroes portraying Afri-
can natives.
One day after being “ridden”
for some time, Slezak decided
to strike back. The director,
he said, had shouted angrily to
someone on the set, “Come
here, you crazy . . .”
Slezak rushed front and cen-
ter and smartly saluted Hatha-
way.

“Yes, sir?” he asked politely.
The director was taken aback.
“Walter,” he said, wounded,
“I didn’t mean you. You don’t
think I’d call you an . . ., do
you?”
“That’s all you’ve been do-
ing for the last two weeks!” Sle-
zak retorted and returned to
his post. There was no more
“riding” that day.
OLD FANS
Ann Corio, the beautiful belle
of burlesque in the 30s and early
40s deserted her original calling
to star in plays which long since
have made her one of the top-

ranking summer stock perform-
ers.
The first legitimate stage pro-
duction in which she played
was “White Cargo,” the steamy
South Seas saga in which she
played a native girl. The tour
opened in Cambridge, Mass.,
not far from Boston where Ann
in her burlesque heyday was an
established attraction at the Old
Howard. As might be expect-
ed, many of her Harvard-boy
admirers were on hand.
Ann’s first line of dialogue
was that famous line, “I am
Tondelayo,” which she deliver-
ed in her most sexy fashion.
An excited voice boomed down
from the balcony, “Gad, what
an actress!”
SINGS TROUBLES AWAY
A performer making his first
appearance on live TV is some-
times thrown into semi-panic as
showtime nears. Elaine Dunn,
currently touring with “Flower
Drum Song,” ruefully recalls
her video debut.
The show was “Broadway
Open House” out of New York,
and the young singer-dancer
was to sing a medley of
French tunes. During one num-
ber she was to pluck a fake,
loose rose from a bush held to
Lady Brings Glad Game to Kermit
the stage floor by sandbags.
Elaine sang “La Vie en Rose,”
but she couldn’t find the loose
flower. Nervous and inexperi-
enced, she frantically pulled at
the flowers wired to the branch-
es and soon the whole prop
tumbled over with a crash.
The crew rushed out to right
things as the studio audience
howled with laughter. As for
Elaine, she never stopped sing-
ing. “I was so scared, I didn’t
know what else to do.”

A wonderful young lady is
coming to Kermit on Thursday.
She’s “Pollyanna” and she’ll
make the whole town feel happy
when she plays her “glad
game,” a game which proves
that no maKJ:er how bad things
are, they could be worse.
Who is “Pollyanna”? Well, it
is the title of Walt Disney’s
greatest all-family motion pic-
ture and it’s opening Thursday
at the Oasis Theatre according
to Glad Manager R.L. Haggard.
“Pollyanna” offers us a chance
to forget the headlines of the
day, our bills and pills, the ten-
sion of the times and to simply
enjoy ourselves. You’ll meet
Pollyanna, her friends from
both sides of the tracks and
you’ll recall a rare feeling
known as happiness.
The combination of “Polly-
anna” and Walt Disney’s genius
has resulted in this outstanding
and heartwarming motion pic-
ture.
