Peggy and Ann New TV Stars Rise in 1960s Circuits
Wayne Oliver notes Peggy King of the George Gobel Show and Ann Devis who plays Shultzy on the Bob Cummings show rise as new TV stars. Devis, from Schenectady and raised in Erie, pa, shifts from medicine studies to show business after six years in theatre and a pair of films. Peggy King, Ravenna native and Obie alum, built an early break at a Cleveland radio station becoming a staff singer and pinch hitter. The article also mentions Cummings as a leading light in comedy and drama. The piece ends with a stray fact that the United States uses more than eight million tons of sugar annually.
