He did have a sore throat. It could have been psychosomatic. A throat specialist was called in, as well as Dr. J. McDaniels, head of the Las Vegas Hospital.

They said he would have been able to go on the second night. Although his contract has been cancelled at the hotel, Stanley Leeds, Maury Friedman, and the other owners of the hotel have indicated they will help him if he wants to go on. They lost not only the $10,000 advance, but they also took up $25,000 worth of checks because of Lanzas failure to appear, to say nothing of the money it cost to bring 12 people in Lanzas party and the press to Las Vegas for the opening. He made two appearances on the Chrysler TV show.

Jack Warner said yesterday: I still have faith in Mario Lanza, and were going ahead with the contract for Serenade. (He is supposed to start Serenade for Warners in less than a month.) I believe if he hadnt caught cold and had a bad sore throat, he would have gone on. It was unfortunate that he chose such a pretentious debut and theer was so much debut and there was so much waited for his picture. Lanza, according to several of his closest friends, is completely broke. Teitelbaum, his friend and sponsor, expected to get back $12,500 of what Mario owes him from the now cancelled $100,000 Las Vegas engagement.
