TEEING OFF * WITH deNISSOFF
When I was in my early teens,
I once remarked in front of sev
eral members of my family, that
I wished Eddie Cantor was my
father.
Hoots of laughter greeted this
expressed wish—who wants a
pop-eyed clown as a father? Be
sides, weren’t his five girls
enough for him?
Remembrance of this remark
is prompted, of course, by the
death this week of the energetic
little man who began his rags to
riches career as a singing waiter,
advanced to shows at the Winter
Garden, and wound up one of
the brightest stars of his time in
the Hollywood firmament.
Tempering his admiration for
Cantor with the admonition that
“he cannot and should not try—
the blackface song and comedy
of his master, Jolson. . .” Gilbert
^eldes in his book “The Seven
Lively Arts,” admits that “of the
straight Winter Garden shows,
the 1922 with Eddie Cantor was
the best in ten years, made so by
Cantor and made by him, in spite
of the billing, into a one man
show.”
Seldes cites his “nervous ener
gy,” his “terrific rushes from the
wings.”
“He sings well,” notes Selden,
“and his three broken dance
steps with the sawing motion of
his gloved hands create an image
exceedingly precise and , pal
pable.”

trait of the then young comedian
by suggesting that so far, he has
failed to develop his own sources
of strength.
Through the years, Eddie ap
parently developed his sources
of strength, if not as a comedian,
certainly as a humanist. His de
votion as a father, while poking
gentle fun at himself for his fail
ure to produce a son, and to his
wife, Ida, was surely the foun
dation of his devotion to larger
causes.
His contributions to charity, in
talent, time and money, are well
known by those who followed
his career, one of the finest of
these philathropic ventures,
perhaps, was his promotion of
the Fresh Air Camps for under
privileged youngsters from. Man
hattan.
His humanity was warmly felt,
and since his retirement from
“show business” some years ago,
I, and I’m sure others, have miss
ed his weekly radio shows which
absolutely pulsed with the some
times schmaltzy personality of
the real and vital person that he
was.
