By ALINE MOSBY United Press Correspondent Hollywood (U.R) One of. the, unsung geniuses of television is a man who writes a song every day all be cause Jimmy Durante mur ders popular music. On the Du rante show you see his credit line . . . "Songs by Jackie Bar- Aline Mosby nett." That's his only notice for turning out the equivalent of a Broadway show almost every week. For each program Jackie pens seven songs some of them dashed off in five minutes, mak ing him probably the ; world's fastest tunesmith. He also has the distinction " of furnishing tunes for the only regular TV show that has original music. He Can't Sing "It's all because Durante can't sing popular songs," Jackie ex plained today when I tracked him down at NBC's television studios. "He does a type of music we call Durante music. It's bom bastic. Popular songs just aren't geared for him." Jackie started out as a gag writer for the program and graduated to his unique post of song writer. By now he has turn ed out more than 600 original songs for the Durante show. Aft er spirited arguments, he has even induced the sentimental Durante to try singing mambos and spirituals. The Drosram's writers often order certain sones from Jackie. Other times Jackie will be in spired to do a tune and has the writers fashion a show around it. The fastest time was turning out a ditty titled "Crazy Jimmy Style" in four minutes for Janet Blair to sing. "I just went into the next room and wrote it," Barnett says casually. Jackie has one frustration. Most of his original tunes are buried forever after the TV show.- Some are too Durante-ish for others to sing. Most Jimmy prefers to keep for himself. Di nah Shore and Danny Thomas once asked to use Jackie's songs, but "Schnoz" turned them down. Some Barnett tunes have slipped into general use, how ever. Helen Traubel uses one to close her night lub act. Jimmy has recorded several and sings others in his nightclub act. He Saves Songs Jackie feels his amazing out put of songs is of one great ben efit it saves popular songs from being massacred by Dur ante.' "Years ago Durante was re sponsible for a big hit," related Barnett. "I heard 'Nature Boy' and told Jimmy, "This has a lot of heart. It would be a change of pace for you.' Jimmy sat down and sang it for me." Barnett then did for- me a fabulous imitation of Durante singing. "Nature Boy." "A little shy . . . and sad of eye . . . and what a bum was he ..." "I said, Jimmy, better forget it," Barnett went on. "He never The N only known constituents of the atmosphere on the planet of Jupiter are menthane and ammonia. ' , sang it. And that is the reason that song went on to become one of the biggest hits in the last 15 years!" PICTURE TUBES REJUVENATED Is your picture tube dull and weak?
