career she had wanted so
much.
Born in Dillon, Colo, in
1896, Enid must get back
there very soon for a visit,
otherwise she never again
can lay eyes on her old home
town. Dillon, in early 1861,
she points out, will be inun-
dated as a reservoir to sup
ply water for metropolitan
Denver.
Scattered MementOs
While she has worked with
the most important personal
tiles in both movies and the
theater-appearing on Broad
way for 40 years and in as
many plays-Miss Markey
never kept a scrapbook.
And, oh, what I would give
for such a day-by day record
now" she sighed. Il did have
one started, but all my early
clippings were lost 40 years
ago when a trunk disap-
peared. Since then I've COL
lected many pictures and
playbills, but only half
heartedly. And they're scat
tered about in boxes at my
Fire Island home in New
York. Someday I will put
them together, but who knows
when I'll have the time?"
And, with Bringing Up
Buddy" already signed for a
39-week season, plus options,
it would seem that the
Markey mementos will have
to wait for quite a while.

more amazing in the helter-

that things might not be the

He said he found the mu-
sic field changed-for the
hetter-When he returned.
Music Improved
I'm always asked if rock

said. II don't think so; most
of the records in the top so
sellers are rock n roll. But
in the two years I was gone, 1
think the music got better.
There wasn't so much Of the
wild stuff. The artists start
ed adding strings and getting
better arrangements, and the
sound was a better quality"
Presley's new hit is one OF
the few in which he has used
a familiar melody, and he
said he'll do more of the
same in the future. Release

I've given up cigarettes, but
I still like an occasional

reflect itself in the personal
