Hollywood (U.R) At the re cent champagne engagement party of Debbie Reynolds and Eddie Fisher, an adviser of the crooner's watched pho tographers cluster around the pretty movie star and the top young male singer of the world to day. "There's only worries me," Aline Mosby one thing that mused the adviser.

Called 'Cocky Kid' Eddie was sized up by one columnist as "a cocky kid who never remembers you." But in recent months he has leveled off and appears gracious to reporters and co-workers. One friend says his romance with Debbie helped "because he has to share the limelight with her." "I love everything this girl wears, says, thinks or does," Ed die beamed at his engagement party. When a reporter inquired if he.v would like her if she wasn't a movie star, he replied firmly, "Yes!"
