A Hambone> Says Betsy
BY MARGARET McMANUS

WESIPORI, COnn.-f1ere III LIlS IOWH
Long Island Sound, the qualities of summer
are abundant, not the least of which is one OF
the better theaters of the straw-hat circuit, the
Westport Country Playhouse. Actress Betsy
Palmer, regular panel member of Masquerade
Party" Saturday, 10 pm, WMAL-0, starred
here with Jules Munshin in Moliere'S comedy
THE Doctor In Spite of Himself"
Miss Palmer came into the drugstore on a
warm morning, during her week here, wearing
shorts and yellow shirt. She is tall girl,
almost 5 feet 8, with light blond hair, brown
eyes, who has an attitude of serenity rather
uncommon among actresses
Hi nurSie" said the youngster behind the
soda fountain, "orange juice, toast, black coffee
-right?"
Loves To Be Recognized
Miss Palmer was appreciative. She gave
him her incest most reWarding smile and
thanked him with the charm one might save
for such mighty men as televiSion producers or
theatrical directors.
"I'm such a hambone" she said, mo deny
ing it, just love it when people recognize me
and stop me on the street. I've done more
televison plays than can e m m ber, but
people don't usually seem to recognize you from
seeing you in plays as they do from regular
show where you're more or less yourself
Since I've been doing Masquerade Party,
10 times more people seem to know me- The
other day lady stopped me and said she
enjoyed seeing me on Masquerade Party ana
she wondered if I ever did anything else on
televiSon. She said she wanted to watch for
me-"
Changed Her Name
Patricia Betsy Hrunek enrolled as drama
major at DePaul University and from there
she went into stock in the Midwest, first at
Lake Geneva, Wis. and later in Chicago
She changed her name to Palmer when
producers complained that no one could pro-
nounce or remember Hrunek (roo-nek.
She came to New York five years ago. having
been encouraged to do so by Imogene Coca and
Mady Christians, with whom she had worked
in summer stock productions.
Her first good dramatic role on television
was on the Westinghouse Summer Theater, at
the very end of her first rugged summer in New
York From then on, Miss Palmer said, the ball
started rolling.
Calls started to come to her from producers
and directors and she has since appeared many
