Hope loses will to work after Bing Crosby death
Bob Hope says he felt unable to perform after the death of his longtime verbal sparring partner Bing Crosby. He planned a duet for the Royal Variety Show but found it hard to work until the audience’s laughter revived him. Crosby died after a heart attack following a round of golf. The Monday show, with Shirley MacLaine, Carol Burnett, Rudolf Nureyev, and Harry Belafonte, aimed to raise 1.8 million for British charities.

Fonda Fonda to speak again at CMU after Dow clash
Central Michigan University invites Fonda to return for a speech despite earlier criticism of Dow Chemical USA, a major donor who suspended direct gifts after her October speech labeling Dow an economic giant. CMU officials report Dow contributed at least 73000 last year. CMU sociologist Bernard Meltzer notes her film commitments blocked a faculty talk on December 5, but a return remains possible. Senator John J. McClellan announces he will not seek re election, citing health issues and a late career pause after pacemaker implant surgery.
