Jack Carson’s marriage to pretty Kay St. Germaine hit a snag recently; but their occasional dinner dates have friends hoping for an early reconciliation. Just an average guy "Romance on the High Seas” has jovial Jack Carson costarring with pretty Doris Day. * It was at a society fashion show at Ciro’s, all amateur. The pretty Mistress of Ceremonies took the floor with this preliminary announcement : “I want to thank Jack Carson for the jokes Fm going to use here. Fve never been an M. C. before, and he has told me how to do the job.” She was quite a success, too. Afterward someone asked if Jack Carson were a friend of hers. “Oh, no,” she explained. “I’d met him just casually once or twice at parties. But I’d heard his radio show and seen him in pictures. And I figured he’d be nice enough to help me out on this show, so I called him up. And he was nice, and he did help.” Her story pegs, neatly and simply, one of the prime factors in the great and growing popularity of this big guy from Milwaukee. Jack Carson is a star; yet to fans he is still a symbol of the average man — friendly, approachable, possessor of the common touch. (Please turn to page 78)
