Mr. Peepers' Act
Not Good Enough
For las Vegas
Las Vegas. Nev. UR) An
act that started Wallv fMr. Prv
ers) Cox on a career in show bus
iness isn t good enough for Las
Vegas. -
The Dunes Hotel fired Cox
after three shows because Its
owners said the act was more
suitable for a Bible society than
a gambling casino's nightclub.
The shy entertainer, who has
been living at the hotel, showed
up last night at the casino and
said he was willing to go on.
But the management substituted
a musical-novelty act, the "Four
Tunes."
Material Responsible
Al Gottesman, one of the own
ers of the Dunes, blamed Cox
discharge on the material he
prepared for the $44,000 engage
ment wmch was to have run for
four weeks. .
"If he had appeared before a
Bible society meeting with that
material, he might have lasted.
. But not here," Gottesman said.
"You can't come here with a
nothing act." .
Cox said the act he put on was
the same .one he had been doing
for several years with slight
modifications on the stage, in
New York and Hollywood night
y clubs and on television.
"It's the same act that started
me in show business," he said
sadly. "But they didn't like what
I did. They asked me to leave
and I feel terrible."
Gottesman said the manage
ment decided to terminate Cox'
engagement because "people
walked out in the middle of it."
He said Cox failed to live up to
his promise to do a special act
. written for the appearance.
