George Hit
Not One Top,
But Many
Even as Broker,
Price Attoins
Big Success
By Mark Barron
NEW YORK.

NEW YOHh.
To borrow phrase from the
theatrical trade paper Variety"
George Price is a little guy big
in Show, Horse Biz"
That means he is a top ranking
man in all fields of show business
and the horSe-race business, too.
He is also a successful stock
broker in Wall Street.
Back in the 1920s Price was q
singer, hoofer, master-o -ceremo-
nies at such noted Broadway
|speakeasy clubs as the Silver Slip
per and Frivolity.
Started Young.
Today in 1851, he sounds like
a combination of the First Ma
tional Bank, the television and
radio industry and Belmont race
track. He is big industry in capi-
tai letters. which is a high plat
form for fresh young kid who
started out playing vaudeville with
Walter Winchell and Eddie Cam
tor. The youngster act had to
borrow time off from the third
grade in order to give a show.
Adding to his other activities.
Price now is beginning an Sis
pm. two-hour show over CHS
which will present every type Of
music from classical to modern.
81 also want to do songs which
are not yet known on Broadway"
Price said. "a song I have on my
first program is one I found in
England. George Eastwood
wrote it, but it hasn't yet been
played on Broadway, nor has it
been broadcast, The title is II
Lost the Latchkey. and Forgot
the Number of the House"
I've also dug up songs written
by Jimmy Hussey. an Irish Cath
olic who was regarded as the
greatest of Jewish comedians
back in the early days Of vaude-
vile. Hussey's Second Hand
Nose" and his Far, Far Away on
the Shores of Rockaway' will be
on this Program"
On the Exchange.
Price graduated from vaude-
vile into Wall Street and bought
a seat on the Stock Exchange.
"Al Jolson was my second GUS
toner" he said. You can inn
agine what would happen with
that guy. In 1941 I went back
into show business again. But I
did guess the market right in 1929
and 1881"
Today Price, aside from his CHS
program is busy being a stock
broker. as ASCAP song writer,
head of a real estate firm and .
director Of television programs.
He has just finished writing his
autobiography. School Days and
Broadway Nights"
And. he concluded. Il have five
children. Their ages are 3, 5, 7.
IL and II which is a good parlay."
AS for his horse race business,
Price is part of a syndicate owning
an important stable of horses. He
says he never bets more than 81
on race.
LAS a long time owner of race
horses" he said, Il long ago be-
came convinced you haven't q
