Goodwin and Daly — Mostly Daly OW the merry party is complete!” Nat Goodwin groaned when I crowded into his dressing room at Cohan’s. “Just in time for the last words of a once brilliant comedian,” said Arnold Daly, who was telling the doctor wherein his associate ailed. “I told him,” Mr. Daly told Dr. Martin, “not to eat that chicken a la King.” “It was chicken a la Kaiser — we got it at a German restaurant,” Mr. Goodwin corrected. “I wish, Doctor, you’d throw a scare into him as big as a torpedo,” said Mr. Daly. “I’m losing my control over him. Every time he’s hungry he thinks he’s got a right to eat. He’s the most undisciplined, unselfcontrolled ” “Aren’t you gentlemen speaking to each other?” said I ; and told them of the time I “took” an extensive interview with Wilson Mizner and Paul Armstrong without knowing, until a week later, that those amiable dramatists were not on speaking terms. “Armstrong was always not speaking to somebody,” said Mr. Daly. “I remember a first night of one of his plays when he forgot to make a speech. George Cohan said : ‘Armstrong’s not speaking to the audience to-night.' But Nat and I are on as good terms as are possible between a — hem ! — frugal young man and an old one who won’t curb his appetite.”
