'To Each His Own' Composers Hake
$40,000 Each, Write Other Songs
By Gene Handaaker
HOLLYWOOD Jay Livingston
and Ray F.vans are slender, long
faced young men in solemn, studi
ous spectacles and' 'loud sport
coats. Ray is a worrier, Jay a calm,
carefree type. Together they make
beautiful music. Their song, "To
Each His Own," brought them $40,
000 apiece. Their lyrics to Victor
Young's music helped make "Gold
en 'Errings" a current favorite.
Four years ago, Ray and J,Fay
hadn't $30 between them.
Ray, now 33, once wa a $t5-a-weck
New York City accountant.
He still looks like one. So, for
that matter, does Jay, 32. Jay
earned a like amount playing the
piano, daytimes while, nights, they
tried to write songs. They'd met
in Jay's dance band Ray played
clarinet and sax at the Univer
sity of Pennsylvania. Afterward
their band had toured the world,
playing for dances on summer
cruise ships.
They advise other aspiring song
writers to crash this tough game
the way they did: Pester the art
ists. Offer, them special material.
They poured out their hearts
writing clever letters to Broadway
stage stars, got a nibble from Ol
son and Johnson. Soon they were
writing special songs for the come
dians. O. J., coining here to make
a movie, brought Ray and Jay
along.
But that movie had its own staff
song writers. Ray and Jay, nearly
broke, wrote two songs at $100
apiece for an obscure picture on
another lot. One time caught the
ear of Johnny Mercer. Ray and Jay
hung around Mercer's favorite re
freshment counter just to say
hello. Stumped for a novelty tune
one day, he called them in. He
liked their stuff. His record com
pany needed a tune for Betty Hut
ton, which they supplied. From
there it was a short hop to Para
mount Pictures, where they now
have an office, two littered desks,
a typewritten a piano, and nice
salaries.
They have 10 tunes in forthcom
ing films. They're most hopeful
for "Buttons and Bows," a bouncy
novelty on the give-me-city-life
theme, which Bob Hope sings to
Jane Russell while jogging along
in a covered wagon in the picture,
"The Paleface."
something speetilieular" hap-
nd, the way this semi-docu
mentary trend Js going, the movie
makers may be at the scene next
morning. Last Dec. 30, producer
Bryan Foy picked- up his paper
and read that.12 men had escaped
from the Colorado State Peniten
tiary at Canon City. Before the
last fugitive was recaptured three
days later, he had a screenwriter
at the prison.- -"''.'. V;
The writer lived eight days at
the home of Warden Roy Best,
combed the prison, quizzed In
mates. Several suburban families
terrorized by the cons re-enacted
their experiences for him. The
scenarist returned here and wrote
his script. Eagle-Lion studio then
flew a crew of 82, including 18
actors, to Canon City. The first
night's shooting of prison exteriors
was in 17-below-zero cold that
snapped the film and numbed the
cameramen's fingers to awkward
thumbs. ,
Prison barbers gave the actors
prison haircuts. The fugitives,
now in solitary, were interviewed
by the actors portraying them. Ac
tor Jeff Corey told Werner Sch
wartzmiller, leader of the break:
"I'm sorry they couldn't get a pret
tier guy than me to play you, but
you're ppetty goony-iooking to be
gin with." The convict laughed
loudly and said, "You'll do me
okay."
Some 1.200 convicts played them
selves for a day at $7.50 movie
extra pay each. They were photo
graphed marching into the cell
blocks and retreating into their
cells on orders of the fugitives.
Members of the Canon City Little
Theater played bit parts. The re
captulred prisoners Were Rhot
graphed Speaking a few lines from
behind "bars for an epilogue to the
picture. One says: "We'd have
made it If it hadn't been for the
snow." Another: "This'll be a les
son to kids."
The movie, "Canon City," is be
ing completed here. Crane Wilbur,
writer-director, says his most vivid
memory from the excursion is of
Mrs. Lawrence N. Oliver. She, a
small farmwife, slipped a hammer
under her apron and struck Sch
wartzmiller with it. The blow en
abled her husband and a prison
guard hostage to overpowe rthe
convict after he had held them at
bay for four hours.

Well, 'Rex Harrison finally got

ry for a lot of people. ".This is
like going into battle. Everything

Sturges cried gleefully.
Linda, beautiful as a well-rounded

Rex. to zip up the back of her eve

and its flesh-colored chiffon slip
cost $1,000, pretty little Bonnie

spares ready . The slide fastener
is supposed to stick so that Rex

off the whole top. It's sewn on
lightly with the thinnest thread.
