IL Abrupt Years

1t had to do with the pas
sage of time; how brief the
II years have been since Mil
'ler'S play first appeared on
Broadway with Lee j. Cobb
in. the Willy Loman role.
One factor in this, one
party to the discussion
brooded later on the drive in
from Olney, has to be Miller
himself. Of his clutch at,
no, his grasp upon, one of
the universalS of experience
that could not have a more
dramatic immediacy.
Death of a Salesman" is
not a play that is revived.
It has been continuously in
the aWareneSs of its authors
contemporaries - the most
constantly timely of modern
plays despite All occasional
lull in production. Could
this mean, this correspond
ent asked himself that night
enroute to the Office, that it
is the best play of the many
best plays of the last IL
years?
His answer was yes. Bet

Leish's -. b.? Not so far
and away; that too catches
a universal, but, yes, never
thelesS.
Everyman, Yes? No?
This judgment relates to
the symbolic size of Miller'S
hero. Until someone makes
a better nomination, Willy is
this correspondents choice
as the periods Everyman.
He is a dreamer, a bumbler,
a salesman "out there in the
blue, riding on a smile and
a shoeShine." He doesn't
know how to cope.
A prosperous society has
taken care of Willy until, as
the play opens, he has reach
ed the age of SO.
1t provided him with a Job
which he found congenial
enough. The job enabled him
to marry and to fulfill his
biological destiny as the
father of two sons. The boys

Red Shelton is the only big
time comic still doing a
weekly TV ShoW-and he
flopS into an oxygen tank
after every one of them.
Skeletons an institution, a
financial institution with all
the preSSures pertaining
thereto. He's also asthmatic.
1T helps to be a little

week, I'd be in Camarillo
Estate mental hospitaD. But
the network can't put me
there because it would prove
that they are crazier than 1
am for paying me so much"
Shelton zoomed to the top
in his first TV year-1951.
Then, for two years, he de-
cided to let his advisers run
the show while he concen-
trated on being funny. The
result was so disastrous that
he almost wound up emcee-
ing dance marathons once
more.
Red took the helm himself
and came back strong. He

props to script. Berle had
to do the same thing, once;
it's said he even arranged
the chairs in the sponsors
booth.

Using men a long time to
realize that comics know a
little bit about making
people laugh" Shelton says.
That's why we have to take
over the show. We have to
be the boss whether we want
to or not"
What's the secret of the
calmer clan-Benny. Marx,
Durante, Burns? Well, most
of them claim, at least, that
they don't care whether they
work or not. So why not
take it easy? Says Marx:
Actually, we're all dead
but walking around. We
can't help looking relaxed"
Most of them saved their
money, too. AS for the in
destructible Durante, he says:
Il got no money, but my
heart still ticks"

II enjoy working. I enjoy

any pressure or overwork?"
he asked his doctors.
They answered: people

He's lucky, they added, that
the clot caused by overwork

Jerry Lewis, like Eddie
Cantoi, is a cardiac victim.
He's also big business. His
