INSIDE HOLLYWOOD
Erin O'Brien Reached Fame by
TV Route Instead of Broadway
Bv BOB THOMAS
HOLLYWOOD W-Erin O'Brien
is one of the latest and loveliest
examples of the truth of the adage
"Go east, young girl."
Betty Grable and numerous oth
ers found fame only by heading
for New York. Then they were
discovered by Hollywood. The
same is true of Erin. But instead
of playing on Broadway like her
predecessors, she got her break
in TV.
Erin was born in Hollywood and
grew up in Long Beach. But it
wasn't until she started appearing
as a regular with Steve Allen in
New York that her home town be
gan to take notice.
Now her career is booming. She
mav sign a contract with Warners
which wants her for a role in
"Marjorie Morningstar." She has
guested here with George Gobel
and other shows and is signing a
deal with Coral Records.
Erin is a soft-spoken, dark
haired lovely who looks a bit like
Jean Simmons. Erin O'Brien is
really her name, and she's the
eldest of 14 children of a Long
Beach milk delivery man. Except
for a vear's training wnen sne was
11. she's had no singing lessons.
"But I come from a singing fam
ily," she explained. "We were al
ways singing around the house.'
She also sang at civic clubs.
etc., and that's how a scout for
a Los Angeles TV station saw her.
Her mother's reaction to the offer
of a job: "She's too fat." Erin was
a pudgy 145 pounds then, com
pared with er present 122.
The five-day grind on Al Jarvis'
Matinee Show helped slim her
down. After three years of it, she
went on the road as a singer.
Then she retired to become a
"domestic engineer," 'the wife of
singer Jimmy Fitzgerald and
mother of two sons.
That might have been the end
of it except for the workings of
fate. An agent friend spied her
dining out ti'ith her family in a
drive-in restaurant, asked her
about the lead in a local musical
The show laid a large egg, but it
prompted her to try out for Arthur
Godfrey's Talent Scouts, which
was appearing here. Erin won,
was hustled off to New York the
same night. She came to the at
tention of Steve Allen, who ad
mired her patrician beauty and
way with a song.
I That's her saga, but the best is
'yet to come. Her career could
i well take o(f. now that Hollywood
has claimed ber at long last.

the Russians "have industrialized

Water Supply
Nearly Normal
In NE Oregon
LA GRANDE Wl Good soil
moisture conditions in the north
east Oregon area should help
make up for snow lost during
early season thaws, resulting in
near normal water supplies in the
area.
This was forecast here Saturday.
W. T. Frost, Oregon snow sur
vey supervisor for the Soil Con
servation Service and Oregon
State College Agricultural Experi
ment Station, said snow cover on
watersheds is only about 90 per
cent of normal. However, local ir
rigation, agriculture and forestry
representatives said soil moisture
and ground water conditions on
the watersheds are good to excel
lent, which should help prevent
water losses as snow melts.
Burnt River, near Hereford, was
forecast equal to about 86 per cent
of the average for the 15-year pe
riod 1938-52. This may leave farm
ers in the Burnt River area above
Unity Reservoir with a late sea
son water shortage.
Powder River, near Baker,
should have a runoff of about 101
per cent of normal.
Major lower river tributaries
are forecast to flow from 84 to 94
per cent of average.

Three 'Hard Luck' Candidates
Among 29 Winners of Oscars
By ALINE MOSBY
United Press Hollywood Writer
HOLLYWOOD (UP)-Among the
29 happy winners of Academy
Awards this week were three
"hard luck" entries that at one
time nobody wanted.
Songwriters Jay Livingston and
Ray Evans soy that snaring the
coveted trophy for the best song
of 1956, "Que Sera," meant even
more to them than when they won
for writing "Button and Bows"and
Mona Lisa. 1
"When we wrote 'Que Sera' for
'The Man Who Knew too Much'
hardly anybody thought it would
be a hit," Evans revealedToday
the fashion is for rock and roll
and hillbilly tunes.
l',vans said the director, Alfred
Hitchcock, liked it anyway, but
others at the studio and the "hard-
boiled members of the music busi
ness" didn't go for the tunc.
Title Considered Drawback
"They said it was too off-beat,
too corny and it had a foreign
title which is supposed to be the
kiss of death," Evans commented.
After a hassle, the tune was fi
nally allowed into the movie.
Although it was only used as
a dramatic point by Doris Day and
never sung straight in the film,
the tune was welcomed quickly
by the public, '
Even "Around the World in 80
Days," which took the Oscar for
the best film, had tough sledding

Murray had asked the depart
ment's views on legislation to au
thorize a 400-million-dollar federal
dam in the Hells Canyon reach of
the Snake River along the Idaho
Oregon border. Such a project
would flood the sites of three
smaller dams licensed by the Fed
eral Power Commission (FPC) for
construction by Idaho Power Co.
Aandahl said, in effect, that the
department had left the decision
as to whether federal or private

for producer John Housman and
director Vincente Minelli. They
were determined to make "Lust

"At MGM they called it 'Hous

picture figured we were making
something just for our own en
