Lyn Duddy, with his partner Jerry Breslcr, is again turning out the music and lyrics for the "lloneymooncrs," expanded from 10 to more than 20 snows after the Nielsen ratings indicated audience approval of the reunion of Gleason and his longtime partner, Art Carney. Duddy, in New York briefly, said the big production slafl is "nine days a week" on the shows taped in Miami. "People love to sec performing more than playing host," he Uicomed, "And he's working harder than I've ever seen him work and apparently thrives on it.

He's cheerful, enthusiastic and available." Gleason and Carney are not exactly professional singers, he admitted, although "Jackie has a tremendous ear for and Carney is a beltor-than-av- erage bathroom tenor. "But when you write music for them, you tailor-make it for their ranges," Duddy said. "That automatically knocks out certain things we wouldn't do a song like 'Tenderly' for either of them because it involves too much range." As Duddy and Breslcr finish their songs, they put them on tapes--'you should hear "Brcs- ler do Sheila MacRae's numbers" and turn them over to the performers. "I've seen Gleason learn a song from two playings," Duddy said. "Both he and Carney like to learn their songs by playing them over and over when they are around the house."
