fHfi SANDUSKY ttEGlStEfi STAR-NEWS Saturday, September 18, Singer Who Reached Top Without Effort Had Struggle To Survive FRED DANZIG HjJSW" YORK, 'Sept. 15 happens when a is a success without the struggle? Joan Weber is a case in point. In November, 1954, Joan Weer's recording of "Let Me Go over" made show business his- ory, Introduced on a dramatic show, the record's im- Jpact was astounding. It passed Ithe million-mark in sales in just few weeks and Joan, still a teenager, fresh out of Paulsboro, N. found herself booked into New York's Copacabana.

"When the record caught on," Joan said, "I was caught without an act. I didn't even know how to take a bow. And there I was, playing the Copa. "I had no time to get my bearings. I just wasn't ready." Taper Off After a while, those plush bookings tapered off and early 'this year, Joan was out of work.

JThat's when she decided to make change in her act. She bought sleek gowns, changed her hair from dark to blonde, learned to put over sophisticated ballads. Presto! The new Joan Weber! She opened at the Casino Royal in Washington about six months ago and won rave reviews. Then she played the nicer spots.in Houston, Dallas, Ottawa and New Orleans. Reviewers, besides praising her singing, wrote about her "graciousness her Grace Kellyish charm." In the coming months, Joan will be playing the Miami-Havana circuit.

No Begrudging Her newly won acceptance gives Joan an opportunity to speak of the flash-in-the-pan star's problem. But Joan said she would not change a thing in her career if she had it to do over. "I can see now that it is turning out so well, and I wouldn't have begrudged myself those proud months when I was on top, Joan said. "In this business, that's what we work for." However, she makes this point: "I'm talking about the mental approach. As for bookings, being an instant hit didn't help in the long run because I had no experience to speak of.
