ORS are nerv-
tous, very nervous. Between
.parts, if they spend a lot of
(time around the house, they'
;usually drive their wives to the
.brink of madness, not }mowing
what to do with their -time,
convinced they will probably
;never work again.
James Daly used to be nerv-
ous`""~4~'3'1~`ot`any more. He's
reasonably conteYated puttering.

house in Suffern, N. Y., grow-
ing his roses, breeding his,
sheep and, now that it's -close

For the past six years, Daly

very lucrative way. He's the
commercial spokesman for a

him the privilege of taking only
acting jobs which please him.
Few actors in any community
can make that claim.
Daly Will be seen on teIevi-
sion tomorrow in a drama
which he considers worthy of
people's time. "Give Us Barab-
