Mary McCarty is Broadway's
new comedy queen. 1t would

Photographs BY Eileen Darby

66IrALL me early, mother dear For I'm
~ to be Queen o the May"
These immortal lines of Tennyson MIGHT
well have applied to Mary McCarty on the
eve of her Broadway triumph in Small
Wonder" However, it happened that nobody
had to call her early because she couldn't find
any place to Sleep Moreover, her mother
was in California, having been advised not to
come to New York till someone could find a
place for her to sleep.
AS matter of fact, when the curtain had
rung down on opening night and the critics
had raced off in a lather to proclaim Mary the
find" of the season. the young lady was being
evicted from one of Manhattan's leading
hotels. She'd stayed five days and that was
enough. said the management Others were
waiting.
Not What It Used 10 De
ALL of which leaves Mary with mixed reac-
tons. She is grateful for her sudden glory, but

step ahead of bench in the park.

used to be. You can't loll around in a bath
tub full of milk the way Anna Held used to.
You're lucky if you can find a bathtub.
There's no Diamond Jim Brady to pass out
jeweled knickknacks. as in the day of Lillian

drink champagne out of your slipper You get
