HOLLYWOOD MacPHERSON Carretpoadaal tions. There's Just one kicker in the transaction. He doesn't get four paychecks. He does get famous, though. He's well-known to practically everybody except his wife and kids. Two weekly radio shows, re cording sessions, movies, busi ness conferences, singing lessons and personal appearances put Day on what he calls a "kissing acquaintance" with his pretty wife, Peggy. 'I come home late, kiss her goodnight, get up early and kiss her goodbye, he says. And 1 hardly ever see my two boys, Patrick and Lugene. Seeing Isn't Believing mats one reason the kids have trouble getting to know their old man. The other is: They may see him but they don't believe it. Because whenever Day's home he's practicing im personations and as far as the young'uns are concerned their mother could be married to any body from Ronald Colman to Sophie Tucker. Those are the ones I m work ing on now," Day explained. "Next week It'll probably be somebody else. No wonder the poor kids get confused. This is what you might call "third generation confusion." Day's mother reports the same thing happened to her years ago. She was always rushing to the door with money for the milk man, the iceman or the butcher boy, she says, only to find tne "voices" she heard were coming out of her young son. Foclad Classmates He fooled his classmates the same way. And now, she says, he's pulling the same tricks on her grandchildren. "I just listen to a voice." Den nis says.
