Change in Script. NEW YORK UV-A different version of "Compulsion" than the one which played Broadway last season is being made available for presentation around the country. The situation stems from controversy which developed when the show reached the White Way. Meyer Levin who made the original adaptation of his best seller novel, unsuccessfully attempted to prevent a modified version from being shown in New York. It is the Levin script which is now being distributed.

Burton, who recently completed a run here in "Time Remembered," puts it this way: "The English audiences come from every class with seats ranging from 25 cents to two dollars top. Because' of higher prices, American audiences are middle class or better. From my experiences, poor people tend to laugh more easily at comedy."

Color Be Artistic Gloria Wood, Singer of TV Commercials, Gets Columbia Contract By WALT HACKETT (Journal Hollywood Writer) HOLLYWOOD It would seem implausible that things could be "looking up" for any performer who for the past several years has been in the income bracket but such is the case with Gloria Wood, most sought-after commercial "voice" in radio-TV! the bouncy blonde singer sighs in satisfaction, "people are beginning to realize that a torch singer can be a comedienne, that a "commercial' performer can be artistic and that versatility in the vocal department is an asset rather than a one-way ticket to anonymity!" By "people," Miss Wood means network executives, station heads and disc companies. Columbia Records led the way in the matter, putting her under contract as one of its top artists while allowing full freedom to continue adding to her already phenomenal list of 2,500 transcribed airwave commercials. Upcoming gal singers trying to break into network TV are advised by Miss Wood to stop trying to aquire a style like Dinah Shore, Julie London, Keely Smith or anybody else. Instead, says this thrush with the four-octave vocal range and an infinite gift for comedy mimicry, young singers should consider the lucrative TV-advertising field and stop being so serious about their "serious" singing! "Comedy singing would become the new trend overnight if there were enough comedy singers to meet the demand," says the girl who has dubbed voices for Marilyn Monroe, Minnie Mouse, Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, Santa Fe Super Chief's Indian Boy, the peanut butter Tinker Bell and most any TV or radio sponsor's trademark character you might recall.
