CONNIE & TROY (Continued from page 25) middle of the floor and laugh and laugh! Then they took off and danced for two hours — Connie glamorous in white taffeta, with her hair piled high, Troy very distinguished-looking in his evening clothes. A romantic duo, certainly, to everyone who saw them. To everyone but each other. "What was really a kick," laughs Connie, "was that there was something — anything — about Troy I didn't know! Which," she adds thoughtfully, "is precisely what's wrong with us as a couple. That magic thing just isn't there between us. We've worked together so long and know each other so well, there's nothing in the world I could do to surprise him. "For instance, he knows exactly how I'm going to play a scene and I know exactly how he's going to pla; it. We play to each other like a couple who've been married forty years. What we each need is the stimulus of the unexpected. "Believe me, I like this bey with all my heart — but I'm not going to marry him!" Yet "marrying off" Troy and Connie is exactly what Warner Bros, would like to do, according to the studio's plans for a new TV series next spring. "The Paper Year," it's called. Two Academy Award writers have been signed to do the scripts — in advance, for «_ whole year. The series has already been sold to CBS. And Warners execs are blissful over the idea of their two pet young stars married and housekeeping on every TV set in America! The moment the series was announced, every writer on the Hollywood beat was blissful, too. As usual, a rash of stories predicted that Connie and Troy were the hottest romance in Hollywood and planning a surprise marriage (off screen, as well as on). The only ones who weren't blissful over the announcement were the two principals involved — neither of whom wants to do the series, and most particularly not with each other. "Don't be silly!" cries combustible Connie-Conchita. "Troy and I have been teamed so much, we're beginning to look like each other!" "It's the old story," says Troy, more quietly. "It's much better, careerwise, not to get associated with one part, one story, one situation — or one co-star. I'd like not to do another series ever. Connie, I'm sure, feels the same way. "To the studio, we're properties and they're going to handle us to their best advantage — which they feel is also to our advantage. They want to put an actor in a series to keep him floating on the crest of things. It's not quite the status I'd like to enjoy — but, on the credit side, there's the fact that the studio does put me in pictures." There's also the fact that those pictures have so often included both Connie and Troy. They've co-starred, not only on TV's "Hawaiian Eye," but in the movies "Parrish," "Susan Slade," "Palm Springs Weekend."
