Screenland Plus TV-Land (Nov 1952 - Oct 1953)

— and it was here where the decision about the quarter arose. "Radio station WLW was having auditions for talent and one day Bettie decided we should try out. We had a quarter. I wanted to spend it for a soda, but Bettie wanted to use it for car fare to the station. So we flipped the coin' and Bettie won — fortunately. That started everything because we were chosen the winners and got a contract with the station. "We continued at WLW until one day band leader Tony Pastor heard us and signed us as featured vocalists with his orchestra. Now a problem presented itself. We were under eighteen and couldn't go traipsing around on our own. so our family decided we needed a chaperon. George Guilfoyle, our uncle, was drafted for the job. "Not long after we began work with Tony Pastor, Joe Shribman, who was also with Pastor, talked me into going out as a single — and he went along as my manager. Joe has done so much for me. His faith in me has been an inspiring thing. He quit his job with Pastor and refused to take even a nickel in commissions from me for a long time. It was Joe, incidentally, who later got me my contract wtih Columbia Records." When Rosemary hit Hollywood she was almost immediately subjected to a prevalent Glitter City pastime. She was rumored as being tied up with various and sundry gentlemen — romantically speaking. Well, to get the facts straight — Rosemary does date. That should be no earth-shaking revelation since she's quite the personable young lady. When she is in Chicago, she goes out with Tom Wacker, son of a very influential family, and in New York she's been seen with TV's Dave Garroway. Here in Hollywood she has dated George Baker, creator of Sad Sack. "I do want to make it very clear that I have no serious romantic plans — and by that I mean marriage or engagements," Rosemary said firmly. "And there won't be any until I meet the man I want to marry." Not that this will stop the rumors. Rosemary, you see, is now a hit and subject to the gossip factory. While Rosemary was in Hollywood— and it was the first time she had stayed in one place for any length of time — she let go with her naturally impulsive and extravagant impulses. She rented the biggest, swankiest place she could find in Brentwood, complete with swimming pool and large playroom. "I'd lived in hotel rooms and apartments so long I felt I wanted to spread out," Rosemary laughed. "Sure I rattled around in it, but it was fun." She gave several parties at the house at which she came through with her vocal contributions. These get-togethers with friends were her only activity outside of her picture work since she didn't go to any movies and you couldn't drag her to S night club. The reason was simple — she had spent quite enough time in them as a performer. When she had nothing else to do she was on the phone calling her friends all AT LAST!
