Help Doris Day Get Well
(Continued from page 37) ’
The fantastic arsenal of energy upon which she has drawn over the hectic years of her career may have begun to be diminished. For Doris has always worked and played and lived hard — with all of herself. But this is unlikely. Such natural vitality as hers is not easily snuffed out.
It’s much more probable that when she underwent surgery (frightening enough in itself), she had something she had not known for years — time to think, to review her life, to evaluate. She had time to ask herself how long her happiness could last. Time to look back on the days of her early struggles, her youthful heartbreaks — and perhaps to tremble a bit in retrospect.
Since her marriage to Marty Melcher, Doris has known real peace of mind and emotional security. Not long before her illness she said, “Today, I’m just about the most fortunate and happy person alive. I’ve treasures that are beyond all price . . . my son, my husband, my mother, my work.” And then she added, “But there have been times in my life when I didn’t see how I could go on any longer — when I felt I’d never really laugh again.”
Have those times come back to haunt her now?
Doris’ very success today is the result of a tragic accident when she was fifteen which broke both her legs and ended her dreams of dancing. It was only then, when her career plans were brutally blasted, that Doris discovered she could sing. And during the fourteen months she was confined to her bed, she planned a new life.
Discouraged? She never let on to the world. Still on crutches, the courageous youngster found employment in Cincinnati radio stations. Soon she was headed for the Big Time. She was singing with Les Brown’s orchestra when she met and married A1 Jordan.
Doris promptly gave up her job and settled down as a housewife in Cincinnati. But something went sour and even Terry’s arrival couldn’t hold the marriage together. Doris and A1 were divorced in 1943. Terry went to live with his grandmother and his mother began her painful struggle for stardom. She had to make good, for success meant security for her son. She sang at nipht, slept by day, lived out of suitcases. Tired? It mustn’t show on the bandstand. Worried? Don’t let anyone know.
Wh en she wed musician George Weidler, Doris once again gave up all thoughts of her career. She kept house in hotel rooms and, during the housing shortage in Los Angeles, made a home in a trailer on a dusty vacant lot. This marriage was for keeps, she’d vowed, but the odds were against it. Doris and George separated and she went back to work. Work was always a good remedy for heartbreak, wasn’t it? Her audiences loved her gaiety as she sang. But inside she was crying and, every so often, she sang with tears streaming down her cheeks.
The day Doris’ agent took her to Warner Brothers to see director Michael Curtiz was a bleak one. This was the opportunity of her lifetime, but somehow she couldn’t manage a smile. The decision to make the separation from her husband permanent was fresh and she had cried all the night before. When she started to sing “Embraceable You,” the song reminded her of George and she began to cry again.
A wise man, Curtiz saw through the tears. He saw warmth and feeling and understanding — all of the qualities that belong to the industry’s greatest stars. He talked to her as a father might. “I
