HOLLYWOOD (UPf Movie
and TV comedians are getting
solt. They no longer contend with
the bugaboo of all funnymen, the
heckler.
Young Jimmie homack, a sev
en-year veteran of night clubs, is
joining the corps of film comics
"Damn Yankees and Senior
Prom" to escape the ploys of
ringsiders who like nothing better
than to ruin an act.
Hecklers are a breed all to
themselves; they sense the exact
psychological moment to destroy
comedian, says Jimmie, a
pleasantly homely newcomer to
movieland.
Kilty per cent of my club ap
pearances have been dynamited
by hecklers.
"When a comedian goes out on
Ihe floor he wins his audience in
three stages. First he sells them,
then he impresses them. Finally
he wraps them up and kills 'em.
"Hecklers usually butt in when
you're impressing. If they miss at
that point they move in while
you're killing 'cm."
Komack explains there are two
kinds of hecklers drunks and pro-

fessionals. He can handle the
drunks, but never the old pros
"My friend Ralph Meeker, the
actor, specializes in heckling his
friends. He has only one line that
completely destroys an act. Right
in the middle of a show, during
a slight pause, he calls out in a
loud voice, 'Check, please," and
you've had it. There is no answer.
"Drunks usually are crude.
Their favorite heckle is generally
a loud bronx cheer," Jimmie add
ed with a grimace.
"Some people heckle because
Ihey think they're helping: that
the act would be a dud without
them. There's usually one leader
in every city. In Houston, Tex.,
he's Jojo Berlowitz. All the com
ics know him.
"Occasionally a heckler breaks
up an act without meaning to. I
During a show in Chicago I
mentioned that we had won the
war, and from a ringside table
a .Japanese patron stood up and
said, 'Y'ou darn betcha you win
war. You sure won war. buddy.
Boy did you win war. Wow!" Even
I broke up over that one.
One New Year s Eve in
theater, I had just started my act
when a guy jumped up and
yelled, 'You're full of baloney!'
And every few minutes he repeat
ed it until they threw him out
but it was too late to save the act.
A comedian can't save up a
series of answers in advance. You
must answer hecklers because
they've intruded! and the audience
expects a retort. Generally you ad
lib to fit the circumstances.

der that the company resume its

tain passenger service while the
issue is in the courts.

Science Produces Evidence
Fear May Cause Fainting
By DELOS SMITH
NEW YORK (UPD Science
has produced evidence that
strong emotion like tear can
squeeze the heart and thus cause
faint. The scientists who pro
duced it spoke especially of
brides and grooms who faint on
Ihe altar steps.
However, they got their evi
dence not from brides and
grooms but from men undergoing
another frightening experience-
men who were in dental chairs
having a tooth or two pulled out.
The faint has scientific fascina
tion. Often emotion alone sets off
the dramatic physical event
person collapses, unconscious. If
people s minds and bodies were
less tightly tied together, that
kind of faint would never happen.
Rut how are they tied together
lor tainting purposes?
The scientists with the newest
word, which amounts to a new
theory, said there was something
in the grandmother way of pre
venting a faint. Grandmothers
are always telling brides: "Get a
grip on yourself, dear, and you
won t even leel giddy.
Prof. E. P. Sharpey-Schafer
and his associates, C. J. Hayter
and E. D. Harlow, began their in
vestigation with the established
physical fact of the faint there
is a sudden drop in blood pres
sure. This pressure is created by
the resistance of surface blood
vessels to the output strokes of
the heart. There has to be pres
sure if the blood is to keep mov
ing. If the movement is impeded.
there is a faint.
By measurements of blood flow
fearful in men about to lose
teeth, they established that the

the heart beat was greatly inten
sified. At the same time, blood
vessels were enlarged, offering
less resistance to a more power
ful heart stroke. The men in
which this happened, lost blood
pressure and fainted.
Fear so stimulated the squeeze
part of the heart beat, that one
heart chamber was virtually
emptied of blood, they reasoned.
This fired a reflex along nerve
pathways which widened the di
ameter of blood vessels, and
slowed the re-filling of the heart
chamber.
Thus, the faint. But swooning
entails falling and fainting puts
other nerve pathways into play
which ups the blood pressure and
restores consciousness. Merely
tensing the muscles will do about
the same thing, they said hence
the soundness of the grandmoth
ery idea that "getting a grip on
yourself" is a preventive.
