After eight years of it, nothing in Holywood could ver feaze me.” He was talking about chautduqua. You don't hear much of it any more. Once a year, for 20 to 30 days, they still have it — like up around Lake Chautauqua, in upstate New York, where this form of show business had its origin. But a lot of people you know had training in it, people like Qualen and Fritz Leiber and Edgar Bergen and Marjorie Main, “When it died,” said John Qualen, “I went to New York and got on the regular stage. Then I came to pictures — but there's never been anything like chautauqua. . . . “It took an actor in front of all kinds of audiences, One night you'd be playing before swanky club in a city, the next nizht you'd be in front of a group of farmers.

Barton shook his head. “I'm glad you didn't. I've known that some day I'd have to have this fire thing out.
