him.
"We had been planning and
saving to go back to Puerto Rico
as soon as our daughter finished
high school in America" said Jua-
no. We'll. we did go back. And
Just as We got there I was called
back to Hollywood for Intruder

cause I don't like California" he
declared. "I'll live in Puerto Rico

Harbach's last hit was "Rober-

Forbidden Melody" a flop in
1886. which he'll thank you not to
bring up. For some time after
that eye trouble kept him away
from his work, but he's back in
harness now.
Over the years Harbach has
watched tastes in musical shows
change. He recalls that when he
and Friml wrote Rose Marie" in
1924 Broadway was clamoring for
"eye and ear shows for the tired
businessman"
But we tried something diff

a matter of fact, for several weeks
we had to give away hundreds of
seats to dress the house. But
finally it caught on and became
an international hit.

ried even further. Especially in
the last six years we've had more
and more fine musical plays with
sincerity in them. I mean 'Carou-
