Kenny Baker, the “timid tenor” day laborer on Boulder Dam, has ust received a new long-term contract for the Jack Benny Sunday night series that begins next

| month.

“Kenny really can thank his timidity as much as his splendid voice,” says the comedian. Last winter Jack discovered Ken-

ny Baker singing in a Hollywood | night club and signed him up for

a broadcast. Once Kenny read

| lines into the microphone in his timid but eager voice, Jack knew | he had found the “singing stooge” |
