even the most jealous publicist
would dare say that, about Fred
MacMurray.
Among Hollywood correspondents
MacMurray is notoriously ''bad

with an infinitesimal amount of

he seems not to worry about pub

Bob Hope, for example, is the fast

get a good story after you wade
through writers, ETC., and follow the

not as glib as Hope. Van johnson
