ing" posed a problem for Ruth. "That was the most difficult for her when we were going together. After being out with me until three o'clock in the morning, she would have to be at her desk at nine. The poor girl never got any sleep. "But she never complained. She took me as I was and never tried to change me." Fully aware that this assertion contradicted both the gossip and his own prior statements, Berle grinned and said, "Let me tell you about the fingernails . . ." A woman of their acquaintance had remarked cuttingly, "Ruth, why don't you make Milton stop biting his nails? It's really a horrible habit." Ruth squelched her sweetly. "You don't understand. I didn't marry Milton to change him, I married him to be a partner. I like him just the way he is." "But," said Milton, "I thought about it a while and I made up my mind. A couple weeks later, I was able to show Ruth my hands and say, 'See? Fingernails. Manicure.' I had decided that, since I wasn't nervous any more, I had no reason to bite my nails. So I stopped." It was Berle's way of saying that, because he wants to please Ruth, anything is possible — even breaking a life-long habit. He also relished Ruth's retort to another critic. W ord had reached him that Sherman Billingsly had interpreted a skit used on the show as a satire of his Stork Club program and had announced that Berle was henceforth barred from the restaurant. Said Milton, "I thought I might as well find out what the score really was, so we went over. I was given the excuse that I caused too much commotion. Too many people came to my table to ask for autographs. We were barred from the Stork Club. "But do you think Ruth was fussed? She just said, 'Remind me, when I have a baby, to ask another bird to deliver it.' " Appreciative as he is of what Ruth has brought into his own life, Berle grew lyric when he spoke of her relationship with his daughter, Vicki. Very seriously, he summed up the situation. "Divorce can be confusing to a child. I think that is particularly true when one parent remarries. Often, that creates tension and jealousy. "Vicki, while she lives happily with her mother, sees me every day. I'm most pleased that Ruth and Vicki also get on well together. They like each other and that means a lot to me." He spoke then of Vicki's visits to their apartment. "She's at the age where little girls love to dress up, and she's so cute about it. Often, when she comes in, she'll announce that her feet are so-o-o tired she just must get into something comfortable. That's the excuse to borrow Ruth's mules and a negligee. You should see her clumping around, trying to keep the long skirt out from under those tottering high heels." Altogether, those things which now so delight Milton Berle are those which make up a picture of normal, average, domestic bliss. The remarkable phase of it, however, is that Berle himself is not the average man. He's Mr. Television— the star who entered show business at the age of six, the restless perfectionist whose strong drive for success had left him without a satisfactory private life. Today, Milton Berle has, with Ruth Cosgrove Berle, found a private life for the first time. Not until now has he been able to relax and enjoy those everyday pleasantries which the average man takes for granted. For famed performers, those little pleasantries too often must remain the most elusive of luxuries. With his Ruth, Milton Berle is, for the first time, truly, deeply happy. Vv.
