MERCOLIZED CREAM AT ALL DRUG AND COSMETIC COUNTERS He developed a style of his own, he developed a wardrobe of his own . . . a sweat shirt and cap, moccasins instead of ballet slippers. He was blaringly and blazingly American. He still is. Wherever Gene's danced, wherever he's worked, he's spotted at once as American, the kid from Pittsburgh, the kid who flung himself into each new challenge, arms and legs flying. His dancing school flourished and all the Kellys were in it. When Gene decided he'd gone as far as he could, that he wanted to be a choreographer, he turned the school over to his family and left for New York. Five years there, five years of choreography and dancing, and then . . . "Pal Joey." The kid Kelly had a style of his own. He was different, bravura — call it brash. And he came out to Hollywood. He's never stopped revolutionizing the dance or the movies, revolutionizing his whole life. When he started acting, people said, "Why did you stop ARNESS vs. GRAVES (Continued from page 46) IIIIIIIMIIItllll career when Peter, three years younger, began acting, Pete decided not to trade on the name and instead took "Graves" — also a family name, on the maternal side. If they are not seen at the same parties, it is simply because Jim almost never goes to such affairs. And, on the rare occasion when Peter and his wife Joan go out, they naturally gravitate toward their own circle of friends. Since the brothers' taste in sports differ — Pete's a devout golfer and Jim prefers water sports and skiing — this also limits the occasions when they get together in public. As for why they have not appeared on the same shows, both they and their friends insist that this is merely an accident of two careers straying in different directions. Says Peter, "We've often wished our careers would cross, so that we could work together — it would be great. But actors must go where their parts dictate, and Jim and I like to keep busy. We've simply followed the line of least resistance and gone where our jobs have led us." "I'm hoping we'll break that up soon," Jim chuckles. "I've been after Pete to do a guest shot on 'Gunsmoke.' We've just got to find the right script. If some folks are so anxious for us to get into a fight, maybe we'll provide a humdinger!" "Oddly enough," says Peter, "that would be the first fight Jim and I ever had. There's a good reason for it, too. Some comic recently referred to us as 'The Brothers Four — they're big enough to be a quartet!' Jim is six-six and I'm six-three, and we both realized at an early age that with us discretion would be the better part of valor. Whenever Jim and I used to get mad at each other, the way kids in one family will, we'd take a second look at each other's size and come to the conclusion that 'Peace, it's wonderful!'" dancing?" When he started directing, they said, "Why did you stop acting?" When he directs on Broadway or turns to choreography in Paris, they say, "Why did you stop doing movies?" The fact is, Gene has stopped nothing. Like an expert fencer, he turns this way and that. If he looks serene to you now, on TV, you should see him off screen . . . say, when young Timothy was baptized by Monsignor Sullivan. Pat (Mrs. Peter) Lawford acted as godmother, Joe Connolly (producer of "Going My Way") as godfather. Jeanne and Kerry were radiant — but you should have seen Gene! He was positively misty in the midst of all this. Not a holy terror. Not a holy man. A fulfilled man. A man who has the derring-do to live big. — Jane Ardmore "Going My Way" is seen over ABC-TV, Wed., from 8:30 to 9:30 p.m. edt. "Yeah," Jim reminisces, "we were about the same height and build as we grew up. I'm three years older, and was taller, but Pete was husky enough to make me forget any ideas of exercising a big-brotherly authority. But I never did have to try holding him in line. He was always the steady type." From both their stories of the past, it becomes clear there is still another reason why the brothers did not quarrel. They had no time! They grew up in what both agree was the perfect environment— the outskirts of Minneapolis. "Ours was the last house in town before you hit the woods," Jim recalls. "You might say we actually lived in the outdoors. We were two miles from school and, in good weather we walked. On these walks, we got to see a little of nature. "Winters, we skied to school. We had to do this, since big storms sometimes cut off our roads and the streetcars didn't run. But Pete and I liked the long walk, never thought it was an inconvenience. We'd cut through the woods and walk along Minnehaha Creek — the one made famous in 'Hiawatha.' " "Of course, it's all built up now," Peter points out. "There's probably a school just around the corner from where we lived. Life was harder in those days. There weren't so many gadgets and devices to ease the way. You had to exert yourself, use muscle, brain and energy to do things. The push-button age hadn't yet arrived." Neither Peter nor Jim is the type of father who gets long-winded about the "good old days." Each has three children. Jim's are Craig, 16, Jennie Lee, 12, and Rolf, 10. Peter's are all daughters: Kelly, 11, Claudia, 8, and Amanda, 4. When Craig was recently allowed his own car, it was because he had helped pay for it with his earnings. Jim's other two— like children of less successful parents — go to school on a bus. "While I don't make speeches to them about it, I feel a lot of kids today are cheated," Jim explains. "They miss out on the fun of doing things,
