She prefers to think and talk about the and possibilities that 1 i 'offers for Broadway and Hollywood and television that have flooded in since the Caesar show went off the air. "Although the Caesar show was a disappointing experience profes eionally," Janet says, "I learned a great deal.

She'll just say yes, she tried, but she won't -go into details abou why her attempts were rebuffed. So, week after week, she did her job, the job she was' told to do, the job she had contracted to do, but not'the job that she'd been promised.

And her rewards were an occasional line, an occaslona song, an occasional dance.
