"I said I didn't like to work," Jim replied. "Acting isn't work, at least not any more. When it was, I didn't like it" He was commenting on his last year as television's Bret Maverick when he got an ulcer, a suspension from Warner Bros., and a $100,000 loss in earnings. He ended up just plain fed .up with tv. Jim's dislike for work has colored his outlook on life since the Depression. He was born in Norman, Okla., on April 7, 1928. His father, who did carpentry and other manual jobs, was not poverty-stricke- n, but the Bumgarners (Jim's real name is James Bumgarner) went through the same hard times faced by so many American families during that period. "I started to make money at eight mowing lawns," he remembered. "I can't recall a day of my childhood after that when I wasn't clipping hedges, carting away clutter, cleaning garages and wood- - shedsand hating every minute of it. Someday. I told myself. I'll make enough money to have those things done for me. Now that I've arrived, I prefer to play golf and devote more time to my family." Jim has been on his own since he was 16, when he enlisted in the merchant ma- rine. A year later he joined his father, who had gone to Los Angeles when Jim was 13, in a carpet-layin- g business. Until he became an actor, his jobs included truck driving, carpentry, tree cutting, chicken cleaning, painting, and mod" eling bathing suits. He never liked any of these activities and tried to get out of them whenever possible. Jim even became an actor with practically no effort Before he was drafted into the Army during th$ Korean War, he had worked nights at a gas station in Hollywood. At a nearby drugstore, where Jim usually ate, a friend, tried to earn a living as a soda jerk. Someday, Paul kept assuring Jim, he'd be a theatrical producer. 60-so- me Paul-Gregor- y, Jim happened to see a sign Blvd. reading, "Paul Gregory, Producer." He went in, reminded his old buddy of his promise, and landed a nonspeaking part in "The Caine Mutiny Court Martial," which was headed for Broadway. That led to small supporting roles in tv dramas, a screen test and a Warner Bros, contract Acting was more fun than what he had done before. But to Jim it was still a chore because he hated memorizing lines. As Maverick, he was forever studying his lines between takes, evenings, weekends, on his days off. "I was cramming just as I did in school, and I disliked it just as much. It's hard to learn 5 pages of dialogue a day and still be pleasant to your wife!" later, YearsHollywood 12-1- T Don't Cut Corns Calluses, farts r ::!
