Today: Mowbray takes time from TV to welcome wife and daughter to New York. Chiang in China via the long-distance wire. Mr. Mowbray, in spite of those 293, has been busy on other fronts. He was a flyer in the RAF in the First World War and is still an aviation bug. He has entertained U.S. troops all over the world for years and his work for the U.S. Air Force has gained him an entree into practically all our Air Force bases. He even wrote a play about jet pilots in Korea, “Flame-out,” that came within a few hundred miles of Broadway before dying in Wash¬ ington, after backers decided a New York newspaper strike would prevent sufficient publicity. Mowbray still feels that it was a potential hit through word-of-mouth and claims audiences on the road loved it. He has since authored four movie scripts and has another play ready for production at the Pasadena Playhouse. In his piloting hobby, Alan recently passed the 100,000-mile mark and has flown Air Force jets. He has also passed the urge on to his son, Alan, Jr., who is in the U.S. Air Force. As Colonel Flack, Alan may be another of those movie players who had modest success on the screen, then blossomed into full-fledged stars on television. As a shady dealer with a touch of Robin Hood, Mowbray, for a change, is playing a character peo¬ ple can warm up to. Strictly a fictional chicaner, Mowbray finds the Flack role has drawbacks. A recent script called for him to weasel out of a restaurant check by finding a piece of glass in his soup. A few weeks later, he did find a piece of glass in his soup, while dining at a Broadway restaurant. He was about to complain, then decided that the waiter might have seen the show. Mowbray is still a British citizen, though he accuses his wife, a Chi¬ cagoan to whom he’s been married for 23 years, of being a foreigner. Besides Alan, Jr., they also have a daughter, Patricia, a 22-year-old with acting aims which may be fulfilled when she appears in her father’s latest play.
