FIELDS DIES (Continued From Pngs Onsl "He wan one of the world's greateat comedians.'* Fields, who struck it rich when he played Dickena* Micawber In the movie "David Copperfield.” lived the hoyhood life of a Dickena’ waif. He slept in caves, harna and parks and flichod apples from corner groceries. Begged and torrowed nickels he spent for ginger ale In aaloona so he could get the free lunch. Thrilled by a Juggling act he saw when he sneaked into a vaudeville house, he practh-ed 16 hours a day with stolen apples, rocks and tennis balls that bounced over walls.: After a year's practice he got a Job which paid so little he owed his lions 10 cents a week New Jobs juggling for 2ft shows a day made him one of the world's foremost Jugglers. He toured the world, picking up an education a long the way. He once took a truck to ,i bookstore and ordered the manager to fIII It. Among the works was a set of Dickens which Fields learned almost by heart. During u serious illness 10 years ago Fields deliriously quoted lines of Micawber for hours at a time. Picking up his career from the pieces left by th<- 1929 crash, which wiped out his savings, the bulbousnosed Juggler pyramided his taste for drink into a world famous career as funnyman and a million dollar fortune. He made enough wisecracking about his thirst to ftiruish a luxurious Hollywood home in the style every married man just dreams about. "I've been on a 46-year diet of (dives and alcohol,” he often said. ' The latter I consume. The former I save and use over again in more alcohol. In my lifetime. I imagine, Roy S.
