orris, and televisions shows.
But he has a. habit of sneaking
off between public appearances
for hours at a time. Nobodv
knows where he goes or what he
does.
Mysterious young ladies visit
his house. Tex never tells who
they are.
He even got caught once in
a pretty blonde's bedroom. But
that didn't slow him down one
bit: His wife didn't even rush to
tell it to the judge.
It was because that prettv
young blonde was three years
old. And her bedroom was in a
hospital for crippled children.
Viiilli Victims
When Tex sneaks away from
reporters he's on his way to a
polio ward to sing and chat with
the tiny victims propped up in
braces and traction splints.
And those "mysterious" young
ladies who call on him usually
get there in wheel chairs.
This Is the dark secret in Wil
liams' private life. And up lo
now. he wouldn't talk about it to
anybody but his wife and a few
close pals.
"I don't even know why I'm
a-doin' it now," he drawled. "I
never let the newspapers print
it up because I don t want any
body to think I'd use these little
kids for publicity."

"March of Dimes." He can talk
to crippled tots in their own
