Actually, Jack Benny is a
modest, kind.hearted, considerate
gentleman-one of the incest in
show business.
He does not wear a toupee and
has { good head of hair.
Not only is he not the cheap
skate most people picture, but is

tippers. Walters, BARRIERS and
porters are constantly amazed
with the gratuities Benny comes
through with.
Rochester does not slave for a
pittance every week, but gets a
tremendous salary for a few min
utes work each week.
Not only doesn't Dennis Day
have to NOW Benny's lawn, but
the singer is paid such a tre-
mendous salary that he could
hire staff of gardeners to NOW
his own lawn, if he wanted to.
Mary Livingstone insults Mr..
Benny all the time, according to
the belief. Actually, she adores
the man, having been happily
married to him for the past
twenty years.
Jack Benny doesn't drive
around in an old Maxwell but in
a brand new, expensive convert
ible. And. he doesn't keep his
money locked up in a vault in
the cellar, but gives thousands
and thousands of dollars to char
ity every year, insisting that his
name not be publicized in con-
with the donation.
With three motion picture
studios fighting for his services,
and his radio program in its 18th
consecutive year on the air-aI
great record-Jack Benny isn't
