As a matter of fact —he was! Red appeared at Proctor's as a young comedian in 1937. He remembered the arcade, the deep orchestra pit and the telegram from RKO offering him his first movie role, \Having a Wonderful Time,'' while standing on Proctor's historic stage. After meeting all his would-be questioners, he promptly sat down in front of over a dozen micro- phones and tope recorders and quickly asked, \Are there any more questions?\ Red is definitely aierp ,and sharp with ad-libs as he had the reporters in stitches throughout the inter- view and during the autograph session immediately following. \I've done 125 concerts a year for the past 13 years,\ he explained, \and I'm planning on at least two more HBO specials plus a movie in the near future,\ he added. \I'm just hanging around long enough to see who gets Brooke Shields,\ laughed Red. \Each performance is a new experience for me,\ he said', \when I look out at all the empty seats after the people have left, I think 'gee, an hour ago I was so cVievrfs On Cental Healtli From the Desk of THOMAS C. RICHARDS, D.D.S. A CHILD'S CHEWINe HABITS Have your ever watched the way your child chews his food? Does he chew his food in a straight up and down motion or is the motion \off side\? A child's chewing habits are an important clue to the alignment of his teeth. If they are not properly aligned, he may be compensating for this by developing chewing habits that can cause serious dental problems. Malocclusion, for example, is the irregular alignment of teeth and improper meshing oi the teeth during chewing. This dental problem may be the result of poor jaw relationships and improper muscle action. When the condi- tion becomes severe it may cause deformation of the jaw and face or even pain. It can also have an adverse effect on the teeth. When a child's teeth are out of align- ment, this not only interferes with good chewing habits, it can also cause teeth to become crooked and more susceptible to decay and later to gum disease. Dental care should begin at the earliest possible age to protect your child's dental health. Poor chewing habits may be a sign he has a dental problem that needs correcting. A public service with the aim of promoting a better dental health environment.

Now I'm nobody. To- morrow I start all over,\ he continued. Red claims he sleeps only three and a half hours a night and loses anywhere from four to eight pounds every show. . He rises every day at 5:30 a.m. and \writes a love letter to my wife — no matter where I might be. I also write five musical selections each day. Then I write an outline for a short story and each week I pick one out and finish it. This makes 52 stories each year. In addition to all this I paint until 2 a.m.,\ he said. Red continually told stories (one after another) about comic Ed Wynn, Al Jolson, President Rea- gan and the many aspects of his colorful and interesting career. Red thinks all the new young comedians are good but he singled out Richard Pryor as brilliant \but I thoroughly dislike the filthy language he uses — it's absolutely not necessary,\ he added. \Too many young performers think you have to shock people. It gets laughs, but it's not entertain- ment,\ said Red seriously. In addition to all his concerts, Red has written over 20 movie scripts, more than 4,000 short stories and has published two full length books. He's now working on \Twenty Christmas Stories\ which he himself will illustrate. He has also composed over 5,000 pieces of music and many symphonies in addition to his painting prowess. His paintings hang in galleries all over the country and some sell for as much as $10$000. Incidentally Red gave hie the address in California to write for a brochure on all his paintings. I've already sent the request. I sure hope there are a few less expensive ones. In person Red Skelton appears slightly taller than I had imagined. He is extremely friendly, loves people, is quick with his wit and is o! viously enjoying his surround- ings. When a reporter asked how he liked Schenectady, Red quickly replied, \If I liked Buffalo I'll like Schenectady twice as much.'' Red Skelton is a deeply religious man who says '\Man is made in God's image. I hayen't met Him yet, so I'm nice to everybody; cause the next guy may be God.\ Red was asked about his famous closing line, \May God bless.\ He explained in one of his more serious moments, \it's the way I feel. I can't bless the people I love. I'm not ordained so I don't have the right to do that. So, I sincerely hope God will do it-for all.\ Meeting and talking with this famous clown was without a doubt, one of the highlights of my reporting career. I've enjoyed him oh TV, movies and in person at the Saratoga Fair a few years ago, but I wouldn't have missed the opportunity to meet Red Skelton, a legend and a gentleman of great stature. My hat is off to Kim — may he have many more years of perform- ing and enjoying life. He certainly deserves it. Also a tip of my hat to Proctor's for bringing him back after 46 long years.
