DEAR TO TssE HEART Of every
body interested in show business is
the good old legend Of the overnight
star: the humble, overlooked chorus
girl who substitutes for the lead at a
moments notice and brings down the
house, not to mention Sam Goldwyn,
who just happens to be sitting in the
second row with a seven-year con-
tract in his pocket.
Only slightly less shopworn is the
tale Of the unknown who inherits a
speciality song just before a show
opens, and vaults to fame on its
wings.
Remember how Ethel Norman
vowed them with Il Got Rhythm"
in Girl Crazy?
And how Mary Martin stopped
the show with "My Heart Belongs
To Daddy" in Leave 1t To Me-?
AND YET, as Walter WinchelI has
emphasized in his columns, virtually
every overnight sensation" in show
business has shaved for years in or
der to be ready for the big chance.
Relentless drudeery in tank-town
carnivals and dreary one-night stands
gave them the experience and the
equipment that made their triumph
possible.
Danny Kaye, one of the great
clowns of all time, is case in point.
By the time Broadway discovered
him in LADY In The Dark" Kaye
had spent II long years perfecting
his technique in grubby VAUDEVILLE
houses and night clubs an over the
world.
DANNY didn't specialize in comedy

far of key. Kaye crawled out from
under the backdrop and BIT her in the

The audience screamed louder than
the soprano. Mr.. Marcus, the excit-
able impEesario. lined up the whole
company to expose the culprit. When

ceeded until the other day when
Sarah McClendon Of The San An
tonic TEX Light asked him if a
military dictatorship might not be
the final result Of his Pentagon
reorganization plan?
The Presidents blow-up has al
ready been headlined from coast
forecast and we see no need to go
into il again. 1t was a spectacular
fireworks display. But after the
pyrotechnics burned themselves
out, Miss McClendon's question
still remained unanswered.
One may disagree with the
President on other issues but !
think he's on solid ground in his
call for a Pentagon reorganization
When you consider that 2/3 of
your tax dollar goes for the De-
Tense Dept. and related agencies, it
is not a subject to dismiss lightly.
The President, though, is not really
explaining what the argument is
all about when he blows up at a
perfectly proper question.
The real issue in the Pentagon
fight is not whether a military
dictator" viii emerge but wheth-
err the U. S. taxpayer can get
something more for his dollar than
he is now getting. There probably
isn't a government agency any,
where that is less efficient than
the Defense Dept. While there may
be some excuse for waste in war
time, there is no excuse now.
Unfortunately, the President
weakens his position because he
does not release the facts and
figures on Pentagon inefficiency.
Nor does he tell the real reason
for so much opposition from heads
of the congressional armed serv-
ices committees. Actually it is
more a matter of dollars and cents
than it is any opposition to mill
tary dictators.
The point to bear in mind dur
ing this debate is that the De-
Tense Dept. spends $40 billions an
nually. Everybody, it seems, wants
to have something to say about
who gives out those lush govern
ment contracts-and who gets
them.

What happened was this:
A reporter asked the President
. TO comment on a speech by Senate
Democratic Leader Lyndon John
son made before the American
Society of Newspaper Editors. In
that talk Johnson said the Ad-
ministration lacked the courage
and holiness" required to meet
the recession.
The newspaperman wanted TO
know IL the President thought this
was true. The answer given by
the President was long and ramb-
ling,
When he finally got to the point
though, he had this to say:
80, what / say is: Courage and
boldness are very fine things when
you know you have got a plan
that is really effective, and that
is in battle or whether it's here"
In short, the President was say

recession.
