Sports Week i i i it rr 1 In 4WeVe No Says Gary Crosby About Binges Drood By JULIA INMAN GARY CROSBY has battled the Crhy wealth for 10 years and a mere mention still makes him see red. "People seem to think we (the four Crosby brothers) are four socialites who are bored. Actually I get as hungry as the next fellow, Gary said somewhat grimly a telephone interview. "I'm very serious about my career," he added. Dr.

Dena Cederquist, chairman of the foods and nutrition de li 'I Mi i partment of the College of Home Economics, Michigan State University. Dr. Dena, an attractive Ph.D., advises on nutrition a subject in which Americans are woefully Ignorant on her show Food For Life, VVTTV Saturdays. Dei.nitely not a "cooking" show. Food for Life exists to set people straight about fads of which Dr.

Dena stands in healthy horror. "People get taken in bv all kinds of fads because they don't know the fuels," she said sternlv.

SI'MIW TV HtKVIKWS Lois Of Old Corn As Blue Joins Benny There's no chance of Gary's going hungry this week at least. He'll appear with father Ding, Bob Hope and Edie Adams on Bing's second special of the season tomorrow mght. "They made me work," laughed Gary.

"Dad and I sing a duet for 'Play a Simple Melody', our hit," he continued, adding thoughtfully, Of course, that was 10 years ago. Then Bing and Boh do some bits about their 'road' movie series. It took us 12 to 15 hours to tape the show." Gary and Bing's appearand together seems to write finis to the great Croshy feud that boiled up several years Illl. MOST independent of the Crosby brothers, Gary has made a good income off his nightclub act and was under contract to Twentieth Century Fox for awhile. Right now he is in process of gelling his career rolling again around Hollywood since marriage has cooled his enthusiasm for the nightclub circuit and besides "the big show rooms are dying all across the country" in bis opinion.

Tn addition to his show tomorrow night, Gary has a Steel Hour appearance already taped. "I'm hoping these two shows will really get my career going again." ACCORDING to all reports he is settling down considerably, a fart which he credits to his wife Barbara II, (there's another Barbara daughter-in-law in the Crosbv clan). The former Barbara Stuart, she was a Las Vegas showgirl before Gary married her. Her experience is a great help to me," Gary says. I always follow her advice.

Generally Pro wrong when I go ahead on my own. I don't mind admitting It." Now that he's settled down, Gary worries more. "I even had a beginner of an ulcer," he said almost proudly.
