Martha Raye In Focus What Happened When She Posed For Some Not-So-Still Photographs Martha Raye sat in the artificial light of the photographer's studio. Around her, crouching like acolytes before some priestess of an obscure cult, were several others. They included the photographer, the photographer's wife and a youthful assistant; Nick Condos, Martha's man- ager and former husband; a brace of press agents and, in the background, a man identified by Condos only as "Al." "Meet Al," he said genially, "the best croupier in Las Vegas." "And now," the photographer said, "mes amis, if you please, I must have your attention." Ice tinkled in Condos' glass. "Martha's very cooperative," Condos said. "She hates to have. her picture taken, but she'll do anything to please." Martha climbed upon a table and danced a small gavotte. Her legs were slim and shapely. Flash bulbs banged. "Tres bien," the photographer said. "Very fine indeed." "Martha," someone said, "this Phil Silvers, is he hurting your show?" Funnyman Silvers, with his new filmed half-hour CBS show, is wrest- ling with NBC's Martha Raye Show every third Tuesday night on TV. "I haven't seen the show," she said. "They say it's funny. Phil is one of the funniest.... " "Now wait a minute," Condos in- terrupted, waving his cigar at the questioner. "Now wait a minute here. I'll tell you about Phil Silvers. Phil Silvers got our writer, that's what Phil Silvers got. He got Nat Hiken. Phil Silvers got the drum-beaters pounding their tambourines all over town for his show. We got nothing." Condos stopped talking and glared about the room. "So what happens?" Condos paused again. "So we clobbered him in the ratings. Clobbered, clobbered, clob- bered!" "Phil's all right," Martha interrupted 00300obe Martha Raye and Melodye: 'Mommy, why don't you ever run down?' hastily. "Phil Silvers is a very fine comedian, I'm not going to knock the other fellow's act." Condos stared into his glass. "Martha's right," he said finally. "We got nothing against Phil Silvers. We just got a better show. continued 5 ----------- 2 ----------- What's His Line? Newsman, Vice President, Moderator, John Daly Really Specializes In Charm After 17 years as a newsman and a year-and- a-half's tenure as an ABC-TV vice president, John Daly still is best known for the clever and sometimes coy asides he tosses during the national parlor game, What's My Line? A large, voluble man of 41, Daly is opti- continued mistic about this paradox. ----------- 3 ----------- TV FILLS SANTA'S PACH Santa may still have his eight reindeer to help him deliver, but a glance at these pages will reveal how heavily he's banking on TV for inspiration in filling his sleigh. 1.
