why just producers? Why
not an actress? This is some
thing to think about, and so
is raising the money to sub
sidize the promising young
playwright"
Those First Nights
How it came up we've COM
pletely forgotten, but the
talk got around to first nights,
which always carries an i'm
plication that a way should
be found to skip that pro-
feSsional audience.
"You know something?"
Miss Bancroft asked, IT never
attended a Broadway first
night until a few weeks ago.
OF course, I had two in the
Gibson plays. Naturally, I
was too busy to pay any
attention to the audience.
Afterward. I was grateful for
the attention it apparently
had paid to me-"
AS much as she dotes on
work, she admits she also
dotes on not working. Since
leaving THE Miracle Work
er" she has been terribly busy
not working, reading scripts,
going to movies, foreign and
domestic, and waiting around
to make the movie version of
the play inspired by Helen
Keller's story.
She will like making a
movie again. It's part of liv-
ing which she likes very
much indeed, an unalloyed
Italian-American enthusiasm
for every darned bit of it.
She's a vibrant one and
to meet her is to get an af-
firmative answer to a ques-
ton this correspondent has
been hearing for years: OF
course, you've met Annie?
We have and we're glad.
And grateful to our friend,
the Voice.

Miss Bancroft, who was an
instant Broadway sensation
in William Gibson's Two for
the Seesaw," got the role, she
says, by being a girl Director
Arthur Penn, or Producer
Fred Coe, remembered "after
they had tried out every
other possible girl"
She feels it was sheer luck
she got the play, and better
luck that she escaped being
typed for life as Gittel Mosca,
a sweet slob type who took
such amusing pity on a lost,
lonely snob of a lawyer. In
stead. she proved herself
brilliantly versatile in Mr..
Gibson's so different second
play. THE Miracle Worker"
Tired? Yes, Indeed
Having escaped a lifetime
Of Gittels this and Gittels
that. she thinks she is smart
enough to make it the rest of
the way on her own. No
typing. She would even like
to do a musical-but not the
one for which she has been
rumored-to fulfill "the little
singing show-off I was as
a kid. I used to go up to the
W.P.A. workers on our New
York street and ask them If
they'd like to hear me sing.
Like it or not, they heard me,
which must have been terri
BILE for them"
Miss Bancroft's almost
shocking honesty showed up
most vehemently on that in
evitable question: Did you
ever get tired Of playing Git
tel Ca year and one-half) or
Annie Sullivan "a year and
three months?
Sometimes, I'd get so
sick of them. 1 couldn't be-
lieve it myself" she said.
Sure. there is a different
audience each night, as a
lot Of actors say when ex-
planning why they never get
tired Of playing a character.
But If one is giving that diff
ferent audience what it came
to see. the player must con-
centrate on the role, not who
bought tickets"
One can cover a lot of
ground in a conversation
with a girl that bright. Even
tually. if not by the most
logical route, this conversa-
ton got around to producers
hiring young, promising play
wrightS, especially off-Broad-
way hit writers, to do plays
for them, the producers.
What did Miss Bancroft
think of this idea?
Hey. I'd like to give that
a try myself" she beamed.

Jack Lennon, the Cheerful Loser

his admiring director, Billy
Wilder. He is a star of top,
top caliber but without the
infuriating set of man
nerisms that some stars
develop. He will h ave the
longest professional life Of
any star today"
Perhaps because he lacks
ready trade marks, Lennon
took eight years to get to the
top. Though he was a leading
man from his first film, he
never had a really starring
role until "The Apartment"
Most of his other movies cast
him as comedy support for
Judy Holiday. Kim Novak,
Doris Day, June Allyson. etc.
Harvard Type, Too
That phase of his career
is over. He is lined up for
enough important starring
roles to last him through
1862.
If Lennon becomes the
star of the SOS, it might be
considered appropriate. Like
another new frontiersman, he
was born and reared in Bos-
ton and graduated from
Harvard.
I'm hurt I wasn't con-
sidered for the cabinet; too
old, guess" jests Lennon,
SO. No party man, he voted
for Eisenhower in 1852, Ken
nedy in 1860.
Lennon developed his tai
ent from a life of practice.
From the time I was 5 or 6,
1 just assumed I would be an
actor" he says. He appeared
in plays at prep school and
Harvard, performed in scores
of TV shows and radio soap
operas and took dramatic
classes in New York.
Our classes were really
tough" he recalls. "I had to
try everything, including
playing the balcony scene
from Romeo and Juliet as
though I hated her."
Evening star., 1961-05-14

The question arises: How
much is acting in the
characters he plays and how
much Is Lennon? He ad-
mitted that in some respects
he was like the unprotesting
junior executive in THE
Apartment"
II may get mad at a
director, but I never show it
on the Set," Lennon says.
I'll make my speech of pro-
test in the car driving to
work and then forget it. In
eight years I've never had
any fights with Columbia
never been on suspension. I
even got along with Harry
Cohn-after our first meet
ing"
The terrible-tempered ty-
coon wanted to change the
actors name to Lennon.
claiming Lennon" would
give critics a field day. The
actor said it would be worse
to sound like a Russian die
tator. Lennon walked out.
Cohn acceded after the actor
headed for the airport to
return to New York.
He's Been Lucky
In other ways, Lennon
claims he is unlike his film
characters:
II usually play the puzzled.
troubled young man who
bumps into a dozen obstacles
before achieving his goal. My
life hasn't been like that at
all. I think I've been very
lucky.
Il was lucky to be assigned
by the Navy to Harvard.
which was where I wanted to
go to college. I was lucky to
go to New York and get into
television at a time when
unknowns could get a world
of experience in all kinds of
roles. I was lucky to get
into pictures in leading roles
from the start: out Of IA

I'm pretty happy about.
Il think I've been lucky
in my personal life. too. I'm
doing the work I like and I
have the opportunity to trav-
ell. which I enjoy immensely.
I've had a divorce. but so
have a lot of people. At least
I'm on friendly terms with
my ex-wife, and We have a
wonderful son."

keeper or anyone else around
in case I want to swear or
talk to myself" he says.
When not working, he likes
to be alone in the daytime.
He reads, paints or-more
likely-playS piano. Writing
songs is an obsession; so far
he has had only faint sue
cess at it.
At night he likes company,
either at the homes of friends
like Wilder or Ernie Kovacs
or at his favorite cafe, DOM
inic's. He dates actress Fe-
licia Farr three or four times
weekly, says neither he nor
she wants marriage at this
time.
He sometimes plays golf or

orally restless when not work.
ing. Fortunately, he has manv
pictures lined UP and out of
them may well come the
Oscar he missed this year.
There are some actors you
know can win the Academy
Award only once" says Will
der. Lennon is not one of
them. He is capable Of win
ming the Oscar four or five
times"

BY BOB THOMAS
Associated Press Writer

HOLLYWOOD. It might
have been a sequence from a
Jack Lennon movie the
earnest, well-mannered young
man facing the prospect of
his greatest reward and then
applauding with a smile as
a rival walked off with the
prize.
1t happened in. real life on
the night of April II, 1861,
when Burt Lancaster won the
Academy Award as best actor
Of the year. Lennon had
also been a strong contender
for the Oscar because of his
work in THE Apartment"
The next day, he phoned a
friend and announced. This
is the cheerful loser"
If the scene came easily to
him, it was perhaps because
he had played similar ones
in most of his IA movies.
In Mister Roberts," for
which he won the supporting
actor Oscar, he was a bum
bling ensign who couldn't do
anything right until the final
scene when he dropped the
captains prize palm into the
drink.
The Chaplin Touch
In Some Like it Hot" he
was forced to don women's
clothes to dodge gangsters
and he ended up the
fiancee Of Joe E. Brown.
In "The Apartment" he
was the frustrated organiza-
ton man who lent his quar-
ters for the trysts of his
wolfiSh superiors.
The latter performance re-
minded several critics of
Chaplin.
The miracle of the Lem
mon art is that he performs
it without the aid of baggy
pants and other gimmicks.
"He oozes with talent" says
