...That isn't the half of it," he returned, with another shudder and the hint of a sob. "Attend, my boy, and you shall hear the whole sad tale of how I have been reduced in the course of half a morning from a young man flushed with the vigor of his bursting prime, to the doddering human wreck you see before you. "It all began at about seven this morning. I was sleeping the sleep of the young and the innocent, as is my custom of a morning, when the phone rang. I got wearily to my feet, staggered...

All the old standbys were there-Dinah Shore, Tennessee Ernie Ford, Perry Como. The newest TV face turned out to be one of the oldest in show business: Ed Wynn, 71. In the preview, at least, he was involved in an embarrassingly corny act, plugging his own forthcoming dramatic series alongside a stripper, each of whose removable scanties carried an announcement for some NBC attraction...
