Johnson. Scott had promised his

decide to run for the office; and hi.s
withdrawal from the potential list
left' a vacuum into which one can
didate, .William B. U instead has
already stepped.

the ground 75 feet below. Officials on the roof plead with him not
to jump, Cain paced a narrow ledge near the cell for two hours
while some in the crowd below Cried "jump,, jump" and others
begged him not to leap. Finally a Catholic priest, Father Arthur

Big Stars Gave Bob Wagner
Help While He Was A Caddy
By GENE HANDSAKER
HOLLYWOOD Clark Gable told
him "If you do make the grade.
keep your feet on the ground.
Never go high-hat. Everyone's
replaceable."
Alan Ladd advised, "Be humble
and grateful for every opportunity
you get."
And so Bob Wagner is getting
ahead in the movies-following the
suggestions of stars he met while
working as caddy, dishwasher, and
stable groom.
Robert Wagner, as he's billed, is
21, 6 feet tall, brown-haired, blue
eyed, and devilishly good-looking.
His features are the collar-ad kind.
He was on the screen in "The Halls
of Montezuma" about a minute and
half as a young Marine who's
killed. His part in "The Frog
men" was So brief he described his
appearance and exit as "boom!
boom!" '
Vet from these short flashes of
Wagnerian charm he's getting an
average of 50 fan letters a dav.
Most are flatterlns oleas from
bobby-soxers for his photo. Bob
complies personally writing "Thank
you on small photos. On the bis
8-by-10's he writes. "Thank vou
for your interest. It's sincerely
appreciated."
twentieth Century-Fox, also
alert to fan ( reaction, is putting
Bob in bigger parts. He's all
through "Let's Make It Legal" as
Barbara Bates' husband and Clau
dette Colbert's , son-in-law. In
"With A Song In My Heart" he's
a soldier who sings a duet with
Susan Hayward. , . ,,
A year ago an agent spotted Bob
while he was singing alongside a
pianist while waiting for his dinner
In a Beverly Hills restaurant. The
agent arranged a successful screen
test.
Bob says he has wanted since he
was 14 to be a movie actor because;
"I thought the people in the busi
ness were terrific."
His wealthy father, west-coast
representative for four steel com
panies, thought a boy should paruy
earn his possessions. Bob's jobs
paid half the Jrice of his bike,
motorcycle, and hot rod. They
also gave him a chance to ask stars
how to get into pictures.
He washed and polished Brian
Donlevy's, plane, among others, at
a nearby airport. When Bob nest-1
tated to take a $5 tip, Donlevy said:
"Take it, kid, and bus' a book on
dramatics." Bob did.
