It never ceases to amaze me that an actor with Ef rem's background and credits could be content to report to the same studio, and even the same set, year after year, without throwing in the towel.

When they were divorced, Efrem got the house, his wife the horses (she is a noted horsewoman) but the stables, of course, could not easily be moved. Efrem enjoys outdoor activities, especially tennis and skiing but he doesn't include horseback riding among them. Efrem, of course, is the son of the famed violinist, Efrem Zimbalist, Sr. His mother was the noted opera star, Alma Gluck. And his g novelist Mar-ci- a sister is Davenport.

His initial attempt at Hollywood stardom ended when his first wife, Emily McNair, died after a long illness?.

Efrem's career hasn't faltered and doesn't appear likely to do so as long as he's content to do the same things again and again. "I am happy with life," he admits. Stretching leisurely in his studio canvas chair, he adds: "I find as I get older I gamble less, look things through more. I live day by day. And I enjoy each one." PEER J. OPPENHEIMER 2IP Save $2.
