BALLCO PRODUCTS CO.. Dept. 214 735 East State St.. Westport. Conn. o4 "MR. Z. HAS CLASS" continued work on "77 Sunset Strip" a pleasure rather than a chore. Not that any of our jobs are easy; there are days when we don't leave the set until 7 or 8; when we're filming two episodes at the same time, back to back; when Efrem and I, at least, don't see our families nearly as much as we'd like to; when our wives complain, '"If you're late for dinner again, I don't know what's' going to happen."' All of us — Efrem, Edd Byrnes and I — would relish a little more time to relax. Yet on the set, Efrem is calm, cool, seemingly unaware of and untouched by pressure. He usually arrives in faded dungarees, cowboy boots and an expensive cashmere sports jacket, pipe in mouth, and behind the wheel of his treasured English Alvis sports car. Then he changes to a conservative suit, white shirt and foulard tie. ''I represent," he jokes, '"what the well-dressed private eye should wear." We have coffee, the three of us, pull up our chairs in a semi-circle, and start reading the script. Within minutes, Efrem knows his lines; Edd and I are still struggling over ours. In camera rehearsals, Efrem may go into some weird dialect as a gag — Swedish or maybe Bulgarian — and I have to plead with him, '"Please, don't break me up." There are days when Efrem calls Kookie "Dad": when Edd responds by hailing me as "Dad", and I, of course, retaliate by addressing Mr. Z in the same paternal fashion. It's a game of musical chairs that means only one thing: a kind of ritual ribbing shared by three warm and approving friends. STILL, like all of us, Efrem is by no means perfect. He can be absentminded and stubborn; and every now and then he blows up with the sound and fur)' of a rocket. He is almost always late — for dinner parties when he and Stephanie go out, and on the set. Ask him to arrive a half-hour early, and he says, "Of course, my good fellow" and then still is tardy. He is impatient with back-seat drivers — as who isn't? — and Stephanie learned long ago not to indulge in this particular sport. Not, at least, if her husband is doing the driving. "If you want to practice reading," he once told her (he was zooming along at 70 and Stephanie was mentioning something about highway signs and speed limits), "I'll get you a nice subscription to the Book of the Month Club." Stephanie took the hint and now tries to think of other things when Efrem is behind the wheel of the car. Yet you need only to look at Mr. and Mrs. Zimbalist, as I have, to know that these two are very much in love. They are a beautifully compatible couple, both with the same backgrounds (Stephanie's father was in the diplomatic corps), and Stephanie's love for animals of all kinds finds a duplicate in Efrem. It's hard to say what wild life is cur rently roaming the Zimbalist acres, bu a family of lions, clawing at their doci would probably be told, "Welcome, com right in." Hardly anyone was surprise' when young Miss Nancy Zimbalist ar nounced that she intended to become vet; it would have been strange if she ha any other ambition. '"You can't possibl allow either Efrem or Stephanie withi a hundred miles of a pet shop," an actres friend laughed. "I was at their hous once when Stephanie walked in wit! three parakeets and a monkey, and Efrer didn't even turn a hair." There are chickens and a white bar tarn rooster who sometimes take over th Zimbalist bedroom; a white, pet Japanes rat which climbs up on Efrem's arm an nuzzles his face (Efrem once nursed th tiny animal through a fever with an ey< dropper filled with a very dry Chablis) Great Danes and Weimaraners and "on plain dog"; sheep, ponies, goats and a especially sensitive poodle who runs o for a day or two when he feels that th other creatures are getting more attentior Through it all, Efrem stays calm, work in the garden, and watches the childre grow up. The Zimbalists' French Normandy hous has six bedrooms and seven fireplacesand, of course, the revered, do-it-youi self sprinkler system. Efrem and Stepl anie's bedroom is enormous, with on wall completely glassed from floor t ceiling. He likes to have the fireplace i the bedroom ablaze all through th night, because, as he says, "it gives such lovely glow." In the living room there is a huj tapestry of St. George and the Dragoi and in the den, along with all the trophit Stephanie has won as a horsewoman, sculptured head of Efrem's father. It a warm, friendly, put-up-your-feet housi and here, you can be sure, Efrem hs found peace. Every morning, early — wi ter or summer — Efrem goes swimming i the pool. Weekends, when he's not bus over a garden wheelbarrow, he plays tei nis — really good tennis. He is strict bi sympathetic with the children: a goo( solid citizen and father, a loving husban and a man whose friends number virtual] everyone in Hollywood. "Do you want t know the names of Efrem's friends?" a intimate of his once remarked. "Loo over the last Oscar nominee list — they'i all there." "Some people see me as a square. Efrem laughed. "It's true, I admit it. It may also be true that Efrem will stic strictly with acting, "'because there nothing else I can do." But the peop] who once said he'd never amount to an; thing — they're the ones who ought 1 turn in their crystal ball. Once, I remen ber, I heard a man described as "havin a genius for friendship." I thought that today. Because I don't know anyo who deserves that description more tha Efrem Zimbalist. Jr. — even if he has not-so-secret life. EN
