Show By INEZ GERHARD JEFF CLARK, who earned his way through Westminster College, in Sharon, Pa.', as a radio-engineer disc jockey, landed high on the star-dust star-dust trail when he was picked as top vocalist on "Your Hit Parade", as substitute for Sinatra. He switched from his platter-playing role with instant success in his first radio singing job, won the Arthur Godfrey Talent Scout award, and starred in his own New York radio and television shows before being tapped for starring honors. The handsome young baritone he's 25 is unmarried, plays the violin and the guitar and is the inspiration of a large and active group of teenagers, teen-agers, who call themselves "Clark's Larks". Elizabeth Taylor's wedding gown may have been gorgeous, but a lot of girls are going to decide to copy the one Claudette Colbert wears in RKO'S "The Secret Fury." A Hat-tie Hat-tie Carnegie original, it is white, embroidered em-broidered in seed pearls. Stan Freeman, one of the permanent per-manent stars of the popular "Piano Playhouse", can give a Carnegie Hall concert one night and arrange a singing commercial commer-cial the next day. He's heard all over the air; "Rate Your Mate", the new Joey Adams show, is his latest assignment. In 1941 he won the McDowell Award as the outstanding young American pianist in the country. Some of the most dramatically beautiful scenes ever filmed with mountain backgrounds were brought back from the French Alps for "The White Tower" by Director Ted Tetz-laff. Tetz-laff. An avalanche provided a really real-ly sensational sequence. |
