She could get laugh by raising one eye

to spoil Sans act" knew plenty of cases
like that where big actor or vaudeville man
fell for dumb pretty woman and took her
into his act and then she loused it up, and
pretty soon the public got bored.
You see, Alice never showed any talent for
anything except maybe little wisecracking
and kidding around the dressing room. In
all her stage career up to then she'd never had
line. She just walked on and off and looked
beautiful. So when l found she. was in the
act, had misgivings.
But as the act got going, had a surprise.
Sam did all the work. All the lines were his.

never did :. !. really, but that's what Sam
thought
You see Sam Small was one Of the biggest
names in vaudeville about twenty, thirty
years ago. He used to be even a headliner at
the Palace, when they didn't have bigger
names OF course, he couldn't compete with
people like Eddie Leonard and Ethel Barry
more but during the summer he got op-billing
often enough. Iguess nobody remembers Sam
Small now -. certainly not the new genera
ton He was special. Vaudeville from top to
bottom. He had to have the stage to himself.
He just couldn't play part in musical or
a skit. The act had to be Sam Small.
He was helluva good-looking guy in those
days /. fair. curly hair. blue eyes. high color
and frst-class build. The women went nuts
for him. Maybe he drank little too much
and he certainly played the horses but he en-
joyed himself. And everybody liked him. The
funny thing to me has always been how guy
could change so much just by marrying
woman he loved and who, God knows, loved
him.

men after her but they never got anywhere.
Sometimes when saw what she turned down,
thought she was dumb. guess in the end
she wasn't. Alice wanted Sam and nobody
else
She and Sam got together one night at
some party, and from there on out the issue
was clear Alice was the woman Sam had been
looking for As for Alice. This was it. They
got married about month after they met
Alice quit her show, and the honeymoon was
on the Keith Circuit, where Sam had billings
in all the best places After about six months,
Sam came back to the Palace for two weeks,

like it had been, to Sam and Alice Small"
Then it was that Alice began to have
baby. Alice, who was kind of dumb about
such things, thought it was an accident, but
I'm plenty sure, knowing Sam, that it wasn't.
He didn't want to tell her openly she was
running his career. I'll give him credit for
loving her. He didn't want the baby because
he was crazy about children. It was way of
getting her out of the act.
Well, after six months she did have to get
out of the act. That left Sam working alone
for about three months before the baby was
born and about two months after He was
trying :. or rather the Ham in him was
trying to get the act back into control as
single 50 he could 60 on alone with it and get
all the applause.
But by this time Alice had been seen in
most Of the places where he was booked, and
when she didn't appear. the audience was
disappointed. Sans act was just about as
good as ever, but for the audiences which had
seen Alice in it, the act had lot of stuff which
wasn't there when he tried it alone.
AFTER Little Sam was born, when Alice was
up and around again, the agent went to see
Sam and said, whats about taking Alice
back into the act? Everybody wants her,
managers, audience, everybody" But Sam
gave him song and dance about how both
members of family being on the stage wasn't

down and told Sam that he was slipping and
that he had to take Alice back.
Then Sam played snide trick. He tried
to put the decision up to Alice and tried every
way to make her say that she'd rather stay
home and take care of the baby.
But Alice wasn't anybody's fool Shed got
wise to lot of things most of all that she
couldn't leave the money end of things to
Sam. She said she'd love to come back into
the act, and Sam was delighted and disap-
pointed all at the same time. That's the trou-
bic in lot of theatrical and Hollywood mar
riages. Two hams get married and they're
crazy about each other, but if one gets
better contract or little more applause, all
He'll breaks loose. The thing that helped in
this case was that Alice didn't have ham
bone in her body. Shed have given him all
the applause, but she couldn't do anything
about it. That was up to the audience and
the newspapers, and they liked Alice better
than Sam
1t was then began, to notice for the first
time signs of what these psychologists call an
Inner conflict" in Sam. He would get
short-tempered at times, especially after
performance or when he read in the papers
how good the Alice half of the act was.

ID. {. Asks First Bids
On Approach 10 New
East Capitol Bridge

The District invited bids today
for the first construction contract
on the new East Capitol street
bridge across the Anacostia River
The bids. to be opened June Is
are for grading. drainage and
dredging of what will be the
west approach to the crossing. The
work will cost about $2.7 million.
In the dredging operation, about
$4,000 cubic yards of mud will
be taken from Kingman Lake along
the center line of East Capitol
street. Most of the dredging ma
terial will be used to fill about 20
acres of the lake for additional
park space.
Over a mile of roadway embank-
ments must be built. These call for
a fill varying in height from 2 to
20 feet. The work will take is
months.
About 1.3 million cubic yards of
sand and gravel fill must be
brought in.
The contract does not cover the
paving and curbing of the road
ways on the embankments. This
is because it is expected the ma
terial under the embankments
will settle from six to nine inches
when the fill is superimposed.
This settlement will take place
within 212 years. BY then, it is be-
lieved. the settlement will be suf-
ficient to permit construction of
the roadways.

Quick Senate Approva!
Seen Of SIS Billion
Federal Housing Bill
MFfg = ~
~ 1h~ As.oh;rk.sI D..

Senators escaped q forenoon ses-
sion today by promising quick
passage Of a new SIS billion Fed
eral housing bill.
Most Of the insurance and loan
funds would be earmarked for
housing in defense areas. The
measure is reported to have wide
support.
Many builders have urged Con-
gress to expand Federal mortgage
funds to help them sell homes
that now lack private financing.
Majority Leader Mcfarland had
planned to call the Senate into
session two hours early to assure
passage today.
No Known Opposition.
But Chairman Maybank Of the
Banking Committee. which unani-
mously reported the bill. told SEN
ator Mcfarland he knew of no
opposition among Democrats.
''I do not think this will take
more than an hour" Senator May
bank, said.
If the Senate shows speed, SEN
ator Mcfarland said. he then
would call up the foreign aid bill.
That is expected to require con-
siderable debate.
The housing bill before the SEN
ate now is about 81 billion less
than requested by President Tru-
man.
Mortgage Fund Assured.
It would add $500 million to
authority Of the Federal National
Mortgage Association for pur-
chase Of home loan mortgages in
cases where private investors
would not buy them.
