Tops in TV
After more than forty years in
show business, Marx is currently
rising to the top in a new enter

recent triumph follows years of
success in vaudeville, musical com
edy, films and radio. He gained hi*
original impetus in the entertain
ment field from Gus Edwards,
whose troupe he joined in 1906 at
the age of ten.
Marx and his famous brothers
are said to owe their success to
their mother, who had a strong
love of the theater. Although,
money was scarce in the family of
a poor immigrant tailor, she man

Three Nightingales." After numer
