In the dark ness of the Mocambo nightclub a stocky middle-aged woman wearing glasses, a plain black dress and a s w e a t e r ap pears in the back of the room and sitt ing, walks to ward the stage. There, stand ing in the spot light, with her brown hair Aline Moiby slightly muss ed, she looks for all the world like a housewife who got up to conduct a PTA meeting. Then she belts out old favor ites like "Lazy' River'' and "Mary Lou" with an astonishing ly strong voice and hep beat all the time beating a battered old cymbal. That is the way a new star was born. Roberta Sherwood, af ter 37 years of trying, finally hit the big-time at the age of 43 Only last spring she was an unknown singer in a Miami sa loon for $125 a week, working to support her sick husband. Suddenly celebrities from a big hotel across the street such as Frankie Laihe, Walter Winchell and Jan Murray, noticed her and began to spread the word. Hard Struggle Roberta was booked into New York's smart Copacabana club. She was hustled in August to the New Frontier hotel in Las Vegas and then to her first appearance in Hollywood. Now Roberta sings for $7500 a week. She'll appear on NBC TV this fall and Warner Studio is dickering for her life story. "I'm the oldest new star in existence," cracks Roberta. "I get nice letters from older peo ple who had given up trying for success until they heard about me." The new star has a story of harrowing struggle. At six she was singing in vaudeville with her father. Bob Sherwood, and mother. At nine she danced in carnivals and wild west shows. She never went to school past the seventh grade. For 18 years she was a dancer in touring vaudeville, including three years as a "Hawaiian" hula specialist. She married actor Don Lan ning in 1939.

Now that she's in the big-time Roberta is turning down advice to wear glamorous clothes and give up her glasses and sweater. "I'm grateful for the security this money gives me but I take it in my stride." she said calmly. "I wore the glasses in Miami because I saw better with them, and the sweater because it was chilly.
