NAME ADDRESSCITY he worked every summer— slung hash, delivered paper boxes in the garment center. Reading "A Tree Grows In Brooklyn," he lived his childhood over again. Like Francie, he found release in books. Like her brother, he learned to take care of himself because he had to. The streets were his playground. Walk two blocks and you'd find yourself in the midst of a gang war. Not that he minded. With an athlete's body and a pugnacious spirit, he took kindly to fighting. Later, his prowess turned to more legitimate outlets. At high school he was an excellent student and a letter man in baseball, football and basketball. After two years of earning his way at Cornell, he returned to Brooklyn to work by day and study law at St. Johns University by night. One source of income was professional football. That was all right with his father, himself a fan who never missed a game. It was only when the rough stuff started that Pop got sore, because somehow you could always find Bernie in the middle of it. "You and your temper! It'll land you in jail some day." Boxing was another story. Boxing was calculated mayhem, and not for decent boys. Bernie had to keep his activities in the ring to himself. your eye?" his argument "What happened to mother would gasp. "Oh nothing, mom. Little with some bum in the subway." That went on till his cousin, who'd been acting as his second, squealed, causing Pop to thunder, Mom to weep and Bernie to abandon the gloves. During his last two years at college he worked for a law firm, with the understanding that on graduation he'd be taken in as a junior member. Just before taking his degree, Bernie was kissed off by his sponsor. Someone else had a prior claim. Sick and sore, he made the usual rounds and got the usual answers. He turned to anything that would bring in a dollar — drove trucks, worked on roads, sneaked back to the ring under an assumed name. This went on for a year and drove him close to desperation. Lying sleepless at night, he saw himself slipping into a bottomless pit — no money, no job, no prospects. The scales dropped from his eyes. He saw the law stripped of the romance it held for his father. He realized that, for him, it held none. Someone told him of a sculptor who needed a model. Another odd job. Another few bucks. Through the sculptor he met a group of so-called Bohemians— artists, writers, people of the theater. They intrigued him. He'd never run up against their kind before. To one of their parties came a young English actor, in high fettle. He'd just been cast in a piay. He just happened to have the script with him. Without any urging, he read them his part. They all joined in a hallelujah chorus — all except Bernie. The actor addressed him kindly. "And what did you think?" Now Bernie had never seen a play. His acquaintance with the drama was limited to an occasional Saturday night movie. But why should that stop him? "I thought it stank," said Bernie the expert. After the first stunned silence, they let him have it. But he let it break over him, and came up with a great truth like a fish in his mouth. "Any boob knows that good acting reflects life, in a heightened form. So the least you can do is talk like a human being." "I suppose you could do better?" suggested the Britisher with icy restraint. "If I couldn't," said Bernie, "I'd go pickle myself." His chums gagged. If he was so smart, okay, let him try it.
