The Actors Sales Pitch:
Public Service or Shame?
By Hal Humphrey
HOLLYWOOD.

YOU may ma CnlS nara TO
believe, but Bing Crosby called
an advertising agency vice
president here not so long ago.
and the conversation went
something like this:
Der Bingle: How would you
like to have me do a Ford COM
mercial for TV?
Agency v. P: That would be
fine, Bing. But I don't know
If it would fit into the budget.
How much do you want?
Der Bingle: One of those
new Ford T'hunderbirds.
Agency v. P: That's all?
Der Bingle: Sure, that's all.
Agency v. P: You under
stand, of course. that a film
commercial like this would be
an exclusive and run on TV
for six months?
Der Bingle: Yeah? Well, in
that case, throw in a station
wagon, too.
Well, you can imagine that
Cornwell Jackson, who was the
j. Walter Thompson agency
vice president in this telephone
dialogue, felt just like a man
who had stumbled onto the
Fort Knox gold reserve and
found it unguarded.
Contract Forbade 1t
He quickly contacted De-
troit, got an okeh to give Bing
a Thunderbird and station
wagon and then appeared to
get the famous Crosby sigma
ture on the contract.
Fortunately, TV viewers
across the land will be spared
the sight of Bing peddling
cars. The ill-fated commercial
which would have been seen
on NBC was cancelled when
Bing discovered that his ex-
elusive performers contract
with CHS did not allow him to
appear on another network
even in the role of a huckster.
This does not alter the fact.
however, that Der Bingle was
about to sell his soul for a
mess of automobile. It's a little
tough to figure when you
know that here is a guy who
could buy a gross of Thunder
birds, if the notion struck him.
Maybe I'm old fashioned,
but 1t still hurts me to watch
a TV actor or performer step
down from his play-acting role
to pitch the sponsors COM
mercial. He destroys at least
some of the illusion of the
character he plays in the
script.
Medicinemon
In most cases the actor
hasn't much choice. If he
wants to do the play or series.
he is told that the job is con-
tingent on his doing the COM
mercials.
On this basis there at least
is some excuse for the actors
rationaliZing his decision to
become a sort of glorified
medicineman.
But how can you have any
pity for a guy who volunteers
to do these commercials as
Crosby was willing to do?
