drag him to a hotel room to do
some work. Hart would say he
had to go down to the lobby
to buy a cigar - and might not
be seen again for several days.
Rodgers often took Hart up to
his country home for week end
to work. Hart would disappear
for hours at a time. Sometimes
Rodgers couldn't figure out where
he went, and the solution will
even now come as a surprise to
him when he reads this article.
Rodgers daughter Mary and his
niece Judy recently confessed to
the writer's that they used to hide
Hart up in tree, where they
had built little hut. The two
children, who were about eight
or nine at the time, thought that
hiding Uncle Larry" was a sort
of game.
The team of Rodgers and Hart
finally came to an end with
Hart's sudden death in l943.
The saddened Rodgers turned to
his old friend, Oscar Hammer
stein, and presently they formed
the new team that has made
theater history.
His Luck Chanqed
HAMMERsTEIN had many great
hits to his credit when he joined
Rodgers, notably "Show Boat"
Rose Marie" and Desert
Song" But by a fantastic streak
of bad luck, the last six shows
he'd worked on had all failed.
Rodgers must have fed him some
of his Composers Medicine, be-
cause the first show they turned
out together was "Oklahoma!"
a production that has broken
every known record for a musical
comedy.
Now that Allegro" is launched,
Rodgers and Hammerstein insist
they are going to take things
easy. They say they have no
plans for further produc-
tions; everything is at a
standstill.
Hammerstein has left on a
tour of Europe, and Rodgers is
already on his own favorite tour
- every day he drops around at
the five Broadway theaters that
house r. & H. shows and visits
with the casts backstage. He also
spends some time at his Office,
observing the destinies of the
other eight Rodgers and Ham,
merstein shows that are playing
now on three continents -

A COUPLE OF STAGE-STRUCK GUYS

America, Europe England) and
Australia.
Their claim that they have no
future plans should be taken
with a grain of salt. Two seasons
ago they claimed they had no
plans, and then suddenly pro-
duced three hits in six months.
One of these was born when
Writers Dorothy and Herbert
Fields walked up to the two men
at a cocktail party and said,
1--WE just had a thought that
Ethel Norman would be wonder
full in a show about Annie Oakley.
What do you think?"
Locks Clicked
RODGERS looked at Hammer
stein and Hammerstein looked
back, and the looks clicked.
"Sold" they said. The result
was ''Annie Get Your Cun,"
four companies of which
now pretty well encircle the
globe.
People often ask why Dick
Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein
keep breaking their necks writing
or producing shows one after
another. In their tax brackets,
one hit more or less adds little
to their pocketbooks.
But the answer is simple. An
old friend says, did you ever
know a kid who got stage
struck? Saved every cent he
could get hold of for second
balcony seats and fell in love
with all the leading ladies? Dick
and Oscar are still just as stage
struck as when they were fifteen
years old. Maybe even more So"
They Can't Stay Away
/ HEY have turned down for
tunes from Hollywood. Each of
them has worked on pictures off
and on, and successfully, but
they have always come back to
Broadway. In fact the score of
"State Fair, for which they were
awarded an Academy Oscar, was
written right at their homes.
They mailed the music and lyrics
out to Hollywood, and never
even saw the picture until it was
shown at Broadway movie
house.
They admit that was a lot cas-
ier than going through the killing
rehearsal-and-tryout routine of
a "legit" show. But with all its
headaches, they'll still take the
theater. The End

Forrcsia! Outlines
Navy Fuel Use Cuts

Naval vessels have been restricted
to a routine cruising speed of rs
krots in carrying out their normal
operational duties, Secretary of the
Navy Forrestal told a news con-
ference yesterday.
Ships of the fleet, it appears
now, will have sufficient fuel to pro-
vide for an average of 10 days n
month operational cruising during
the current fiscal year. This pre-
supposes there will not be a sharp
rise in the price of fuel Oil, Mr..
Forrestal said. =
The l5-knot speed limit is part
OF the joint program for the con-
servation of fuel and for stretch
ing the fuel allowance funds as
far as possible.
Mr.. Forrestal also said restric-
tions have been placed on naval
aviation, including prohibition
against participation in air shows
In various parts of the country. ss
Mr.. Forrestal said it appears now,
from a preliminary study of funds
allowed the Navy, that it will be
able to operate at its planned
strength but a more detailed ex-
animation later might make 1t nec-
essary to 60 to Congress for SUPP
Elemental funds. He added he does
not believe Congress wants to deny
sufficient funds for operation of an
effective fleet.

Stock Market Uneven,
Handful Of Speeia|ties
Display Strength
By Victor Eubonk
As.oeiotsd Press Finoneioi Writer


NEW YORK, July ia handful
of speciality stocks exhibited quiet
strength on today's market. while
many leaders held to narrow and
uncertain course.
Blocks of low-quoted issues kept
volume about in line with that of
Wednesday. although slowdowns
were plentiful. Moderate Irregular
ity prevailed near the fourth hour.
Imitation thinking persisted as an
antiliquidating argument. but some
further thought was given to the
possibility the eight-week rise may
have partially discounted this fac
tor. Foreign affairs. taxes and the
chance of a sizable technical correc-
ton caused the trimming of ac-
counts in most cases. Dividends and
earnings proposed individual IA
vorites.
New 1947 highs were touched by
Chrysler, United Fruit and Stand
ard Oil of Ohio. Gar Wood pre-
ferred, on the other hand, dropped
several points to a low for the year
as directors omitted a dividend due
at this time. An extra payment
lifted Bell & Howell and jump in
net buoyed Worthington Pump.
Ahead at intervals were Pfzer,
Montgomery Ward, Douglas Air
craft, Great Northern Railway, In
ter.na ational Telephone Allied Chem
ical and J. C. Penney.
Occasional stumblers were United
States Steel, General Motors, Good
year, International Harvester, Amer
ican Telephone, Anaconda. Kenne-
colt, Du Pont, United States Gyp-
sum, Ovens Illinois, New York Gen.
tral, Southern Railway and South
ern Pacific.
