"Devil Thumbs a Ride" TV Mailbag Question Douglas is the greatest in my book. I am very pleased that most of his early films are on TV so I can see his great performances again. Could you give me a short biography on my favorite? L. Frankenmuth, Michigan Answer The successful actor- producer was born in Amsterdam, N.

in 1916. He attended the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York City and worked at many odd jobs before his break He finnally started started getting some small roles in B'way shows when the war broke out. He served in the Navy and was discharged after the war. Douglas returned to B'way and more small parts in one flop after another until he was spotted by a Hollywood producer who signed him for films. His first movie was a Barbara Stanwyck melodrama called "The Strange Love of Martha Ivers." He continued playing second leads until Stanley Kramer gave him "The Champion." From movie on, Douglas' career has been booming.

He has his own production company and is in demand for big films. Douglas has plans on returning to he stage soon, this time as a star. LARRY HAINES watches his character brother (Jason Robards, Jr.) smash an intercom in a scene from the Broadway hit "A Thousand clowns." Stage Gives Actor New Career Question Is Farley Granger still in show business? I have seen a few of his movies on TV but I don't remember any new films he has made in the past few years nor do I recall any TV performances M. Richmond, Va. Answer Mr.

Granger has appeared on TV during the past season and will undoubtedly show up as guest star on some of the new major series. The handsome star has devoted a great deal of his time to the stage these past few years. His last stage role was in the revival of "Brigadoon." By Harvey Pack On a Sunday night early this month an era ended. There was no publicity or ballyhoo as CBS closed up the last two dramatic programs on radio, the long-running "Suspense" and "Johnny Dol. lar." Gone forever are the days when our imagination could paint the scenery and visualize the faces of our heroes as Lamont Cranston became "The Shadow" or the creaky door transported us into "The Inner Sanctum." For many actors it was comparable to vaudeville giving way to silent films and silents to talkies.

I decided to celebrate the passing of dramatic radio by talking to an actor who reaped a golden harvest in radio's heyday and often starred in as many as four shows a day. I found this actor, Larry Haines, at Broadway's Eugene O'Neil Theatre where he is making his stage debut as Jason Robards brother in the long- running comedy hit "A Thousand Clowns." "It's been over for me for years," said Larry when I informed of the final demise of radio drama. "There are some of my colleagues from radio's inner circle who are still sitting home waiting for it to come back. I got the message several years ago and was lucky enough to step into a running part on CBS' 'Search for I've been Stu Bergman on that show for so many years that when I walk on the stage in 'A Thousand Clowns' I can hear the ladies whispering. 'Look, there's I asked Larry whether he misses the "good old days." "Are you kidding?" he replied "Those of us who were 'in' had a ball.

I could do my soap opera in the morning then rush out and log a lead in two nighttime shows on the same day. I once appeared on two shows at the same time on two networks My wife waited for me in the car in front of NBC while I did the first 15 minutes of one show and then rushed me over to CBS where I arrived in time to appear in the last half hour of a one hour play. Can anybody do that in TV?" born in Mount Vernon, New York, and while attending college in Yonkers he was advised to go study acting. A few months in the dramatic school and his instructors thought he was ready so they set up an audition at CBS. He caught on immediately and became one of radio's most sought after voices.

"Of course the arrival of TV was a blow and when I did my first is his Broadway debut Larry is no stranger to live audiences be- but I did it," he said. "From there on in I did as much radio as I cause he appeared in many of the: could but kept my foot in the TV big radio shows where the stars door. It made the gradual transi- read the scripts in front of an au-ltion easy." dience. "I was actually in the show! I asked Larry why he never tried where Orson Welles pulled his leg-! Broadway before "A Thousand endary stunt," he remembered. I Clowns." "Who could afford it?" "The director sat on stage and; he replied.

"If I took a show it cued the actors like a meant giving up a fortune in ra- it was all part of the big income and I simply never for the theatre audience. The guest thought it was worth it. But now, stars were introduced on the air. with only 'Search for Tomorrow' any misgivings I had about doing the same thing eight times a week are completely gone. Every audience is a different experience.

They came out of the wings, as a regular chore, there's really accepted their applause, no conflict and I'm -eady for a and walked over to their micro- new career. I lo -e the show and phone. Orson came out, bowed, took his script out of his pocket and threw it up in the air. The director went out of his mind. He jumped off his conductor's stool and crawled all over the stage gathering up the papers.

Orson watched him for a second, then calmly went to the mike and took the real script out of his pocket and proceeded to do the show." Larry feels that people took their radio as seriously as theyj do TV. Once he played a man about to go to the chair on "Gangbusters" and after show he received a phone call from condemned man's mother abusing him for his wicked portrayal of her wonderful, clean living son. Oddly enough Larry Haines is not the actor listed in, "A Thousand Clowns." His name is A. Larry Haines. When asked why be took on airs on Broadway and gave himself an extra initial the radio veteran said, "There's an Equity rule about names and it seems there is an actor named Lar ry Haines registered in the union so I was told to take another name.

I had no intention of doing that, so I said as long as there's another Larry Haines I'll call my- Haines actually had very little self A. Larry Haines. The 'Jf trouble breaking into radio. He was stands for.
