Shy Marge Found True Home on the Stage By MEL HEIMER THE TRUTH, alas, is that Marge Redmond didn't get into show biz because Darryl Zanuck saw her in Schwab's drugstore and said immediately "Sign that girl. to make a star of her." What actually caused it.

you see, was that she was a rotten typist. was taking typing back in high school in Lakewood, Ohio." says the pert, comic Sister Jacqueline of ABC-TV's big series hit, "The Flying Nun." "And I needed the five credits to be graduated--except I could not. pass the time tests. I really wasn't a bad typist, only when had to race the clock. I got all nervous and my fingers got wet and slipped all over the keys I made mistakes." That was when a girl friend suggested she join the the high school drama group, for which she could get the credits she needed.

"I got nervous the first time I was supposed to be in a school play, too." she said. "--and then somebody pushed me out onto the stage, and you know what? 1 was home. It was Being out there was better than being home in my own living room." From that night on, of course, the die was cast. After school. Marge worked in a bank for a while, first as a mail page and then--hold onto your hats--as a typist but always she knew that her bag was to perform in public.

Oddly, he, too, is a Clevelander. Today Weston is a stick- out character-actor movie star --he's in "The Thomas Crown Affair" with Steve McQueen-but in those days they both were scrambling. "After three months," Marge says, "we quit 'Bells' to go to California, Where suddenly all the TV seemed to be happening.

Jack and I are a little nutty, anyway. If we have enough to eat and can pay the rent, the rest of the things money brings seem extraneous." After wrecking their car in Des Moines, Iowa, the gaily-gaily pair finally did get to the coast --and have worked happily (and often together) ever since. Jack's breaks came a bit earlier. beginning with a "Gunsmoke" episode, but Marge then did a "Hennessey" for Jackie Cooper and they both were on their way. "I guess I got the part in 'The Flying Nun' because I'd just been a nun in the Rosalind Russell film "The Trouble With Marge says.

"And also--when I went to talk with the people in charge, I found that over the years I had worked for all but one of the executives in the room. They knew what I could do and presto, I got the job. Weston is concentrating on films (he wants to direct) these years, while Marge is busy with TV. Of course, if the bottom falls out of show biz, she always can work as a typist. Sure she can.
