Bert Wheeler Talks of a Play
And Money He Forgot to Save
By Jay Carmody.
• When you were a small boy and your mother told you not to talk
•bout money, as if it, too, were one of the bad words, she certainly was
not preparing you for a future which would include having luncheon
with Bert Wheeler, the comedian.
Money is one of the things you have to talk about with Bert because
once upon a time he and his partner, Bob Woolsey, made so much profit
for a movie studio that it, the studio, stopped being a mud puddle and
oecame a pane.
This was RKO which, when it
made “Rio Rita” with Wheeler ana
Woolsey, was a quagmire, and is
now fashionable enough to be owned
by Howard Hughes.
You just can't keep money out of
a conversation with Wheeler.
* * * *
It comes up, for instance, when
you ask the amiable little comedian
what he would change most about
his career if he had it to live over
again.
“This time,” he says with a grin,
“I’d save my money.”
‘‘And otherwise,” you suggest.
‘‘Otherwise, I’d do the same thing
all over again,” Wheeler says. “After
all, I’ve had a wonderful time. I’m
a happy sort, and I don’t have any
thing like a morbid regret that I’m
not richer than I am. Funny thing
Is that I really don’t think much
about that sort of thing and I guess
I never did. The fact is that, at
54, I’m just as ambitious as ever,
but still not about dough. There
are still a lot of things I’d like to
do. and even if time is getting
shorter, I still think I’ll do them ”

FROM D. C. LINE
I Call "Bob" McLaughlin
RE. 2102
Wheeler’s funniest memory of
being a businessman, more than an
actor, was when he and Woolsey
stuck RKO for their biggest wad of
| cash. It had nothing to do with
the oomedians suddenly becoming
I sharp.
•‘We simply got tired of making
! the pictures, which, after Rio Rita'
| were not ve^ good,” Wheeler re
calls. ‘Our contract had run out
I and we ,were in no mood to work.
RKO offered us a flat $85,000 to
make one more musical, and when
we turned it down, the studio just
thought we were getting canny.
With nothing else to do, we ran the
negotiations along, you know, as a
sort of gag. Well, the result was
that we finally worked out a per
centage deal and, what do you
know, we made $200,000—all because
we didn't want to be bothered.”
♦ * * *
Wheeler, headlining this week's
.stage show at Loew's Capitol, finds
his consuming ambition these days
is to locate a legitimate play that
will last long enought to give him
the feeling of being a dramatic
actor. He got a great taste of suc
cess in this field when he substituted
for Frank Fay in “Harvey” two sea
sons ago on Broadway. It -Keeps
gnawing at him and he thinks it will
go on gnawing until he finds the
play he wants.
•'I've tried two,” he says, “but
they’ve been flops. The last one was
‘The Bench Warmer.’ I thought it
was a nice solid part in a funny sort
of comedy. I was even more con
vinced of it when we opened in De
troit to nice notices and a happy
reception from the audience. We
moved on to Chicago and much the
same thing happened. Then, wc
came into New York. That is where
the critics cut our heads off. I read
the first review in the first morn
ing paper I could find. It should
have depressed me, but it didn’t.
I just thought the critic must be
having an off night. When I read
the others, I knew better.”
* * * *
His six weeks in "Harvey” will
always be Bert's memory, not only
because it was the finest part he1
ever has played, but because it en
abled him to prove a point—at least

OUR 99-YEAR-OLD CREED: “Promise only
what you can do; always do what you promise.”
RED’S MATCH—Arlene Dahl
won the role of leading lady
opposite Red Skeleton in “A
Southern Yankee” after an
ad lib film test in which she
proved her ability to hold her
own with the comedian. The
picture is currently at the Co
lumbia for its second F street
rveek.
partially—he raised in an argument
with Frank Fay.
“You know Frank?” he asks.
“Then you know he is not exactly
the most modest actor in the his
tory of the theater. You have to
argue back with Frank about a lot
of things and when he started tell
ing me how great he was as Elwood
P. Dowd, we argued. I said that
anybody could get the same number
oi laughs in the part, that the audi
ence was laughing while the star of
the play was still in his dressing
rom.
“Playing it convinced me I was
r'ght.”
The little comedian who pleased
the “Harvey” public and Producer
Brock Pemberton so much was
offered another chance at the role
this summer.
“I didn't do it.” he says, “because
I would have had to follow Jimmy
Stewart. If you’ve got any sense,
you don't follow Jimmy Stewart.”
This is a modest man, whose
great enthusiasm ii> life is the styles
of his great rivals, the other come
dians who came up through Zieg
feld. The best of the lot, in his
opinion, was W. C. Fields, but he
thinks Bobby Clark, Ed Wynn, Bert
Lahr, and the others were extraor
dinarily funny. He thinks the
present crop of funny men would
be more promising if it served
an apprenticeship such as their
elders did.
• But there is one man who may
be as funny as any of the old
timers.” Bert says. "That’s Eddie
Foy, jr. He’s great and will be
greater. He's funny just walking
down the street, "funnier than his
old man who was a great friend
of mine.”
Two other extraordinary fellows
in Bert's opinion, although both are
outside of the great comedian tradi
tion, are Hank Ladd and Paul Hart
man.
"They’re wonderful,” he says, “and
so is Grace Hartman.”
* * * *
While he is waiting for that play
for which he seems always to be
waiting, Bert expects to have a
happy time in vaudeville and in
television.
"What’s more.” he says, “I think
111 go back to London. Woolsey
and I had a wonderful time there,
and I was there again just before
the war. Americans are going big
over there. I'm an American and
I like to go big.”
