Crosby, Crosby and Crosby: from left, Cathy, Bob and Gary. It'2 Crosby All The Way CATHY AND GARY JOIN BO B — T E M PO R AR I LY When Joan O’Brien took a leave of absence from The Bob Crosby Show early this summer in favor of mother¬ hood, Crosby hired himself a couple of cousins, so to speak, for what he calls “sing-ins,” rather than stand- ins. The cousins, who potentially could command rather stiff fees on the strength of their birth certificates alone, are his own daughter, Cathy, and his brother’s son, Gary. Gary’s father being Bing. Cathy is just 16; Gary, 22. Cathy appears three times a week on her father’s five-a-week, half-hour CBS show and Gary shows up once. (Gary’s schedule—his own radio show, frequent guest spots, even danc¬ ing lessons—has so far made it im¬ possible for the two to appear to¬ gether, but heavy fan mail demand¬ ing the duo has them working on it.) The reaction, according to Daddy (or Uncle Bob), has been sensational. It’s strictly a summer vacation deal, however. Both youngsters leave the show when Joan returns, Cathy for school and Gary to shop around for more show-business work. To date, he’s the only young pro in the family. But he’d best keep an eye on Cathy. That Crosby-type blood is loaded. 20
