HALL FINDS

OUR HOUSE
ROLL ‘TAME’

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Deidre Hall finds her role in
the prime-time series Our House rather tame after 11
years of passion and intrigue in a daytime soap opera.

She stars in the NBC series as.a young widow who,
with her three children, has moved in with her late
husband's father. Grandpa, played by Wilford Brimley, is

ing of a cur to give up his
privacy, yet affectionate and caring toward the children.

The show airs Sundays at 7 p.m. EST, the hour set
aside for news and information shows, such as CBS’ 60
Minutes, or family programming such as ABC's Disney
Sunday Movie.

“I get kissed in an episode in February,” Hall said.
“But it’s not a romance that's going anywhere. It's a
tropical flirtation.

“The family wins a trip to Hawaii, and while we're
there I meet a pilot. For people used to Marlena's
passionate love affairs, it may be mild.”

ON NBC's Days of Our Lives, Hall played psychia
trist Dr. Marlena Evans Brady. She was voted Soap
Opera Digest's Best Actress for five consecutive years
and was voted most popular by Daytime TV magazine for
108 straight months.

FALLS VICTIM

A few years ago, when it appeared her character had
fallen victim to the Salem Strangler, anxious callers
jammed the NBC switchboards on both coasts.

Hundreds picketed the network's studios in Bur.
bank. As it turned out, the victim was her twin sister,
played by Hall's real twin sister, Andrea Lovell.

Hall didn’t leave the soap until Our House was
renewed for a second season.

“I love daytime and I loved my character,” she said.

“But I did want to do nighttime television, too, Until we
were sure Our House was a hit, I didn't want to leave
daytime,

“Then, when we were picked up for a second year,
NBC made the decision for me to leave the soap.

“My feelings were real mixed, I did both shows for a
full season, which was an exhausting schedule. I knew I
couldn't go on much longer.

“It was like leaving home,” she said, “What made it
easy was going to a place I love as much as Our House.”

Marlena was written out of Days of Our Lives by
having her disappear in a plane crash. That, of course,
leaves the door open for a return.

Hall believes most of her fans have followed her to
prime time.

“They are supportive, but miss the constancy of an
hour every da: “They also miss the passionate
story lines Marlena had.

She was also noted for her Lunchbreaks, luncheon
get-togethers for her fans that have attracted up to 2,500
people. She has not yet decided whether to hold another
one this year.

Last year Hall wrote a script for Our House about
the anniversary of her late husband's 40th birthday. It
was turned down by the producers.

She wrote another script that the producers bought
and she hopes it will be filmed as a Valentine's Day show
for next year.

Her script, called She'll Always Be a Girl to Me, was
co-written with Cheri Ingram, who is also one of her
partners in video resume company called Customs Last
Stand.

Mary Hart of Entertainment Tonight is the other
partner,

When Our House stops filming for the season, Hall
said, she will write a movie screenplay.

“It's so odd having time off after 11 years,” she said.
“On the soap we never had any time off.”

She said she has received encouragement in her
writing from producer Bill Blinn, who wrote the
much-honored TV movie Brian's Song, parts of Roots and
produced Fame.

Hall is married to Michael Dubelko, president of
Cannell Studios.

Poltergeist child
star dead at 12

LOS ANGELES (AP) —
Heather O'Rourke, the an
gelic little blonde who ap.
peared in the Poltergeist
movies, died on the operating
table during intestinal sur
gery. She was 12.

The actress was known for
saying “They're heeeere!” in
Poltergeist and “They're
baaaack!” in the sequel.

She died Monday shortly
after arriving at Children's
Hospital of San Diego, her
agent David Wardlow said
Tuesday.

The cause of death was re.
lated toa bowel blockage she
evidently had from birth, the
San Diego County coroner's
office said.

O'Rourke died Monday
afternoon during an opera
tion that was complicated
when she suffered shock.

“Septic shock is not un
common in infections,” said

man for Children’s Hospital
She said septic shock in
volves bacteria getting into
the bloodstream.

O'Rourke was taken to the
hospital after complaining of
abdominal pain, Wardlow
said

She suffered cardiac arrest
and was resuscitated before
being transferred to the hos
pital for surgery, said
Merryman

The adult performers who
marvelled at Heather's pro
fessionalism and early prom
ise mourned her death.

“I'm devastated by the
news of Heather's death.”
said actor Craig Nelson, who
portrayed her character's
father. “It's very difficult
when a member of your
family dies so suddenly. I
loved her very much.”

The actress is survived by
her parents, Jim and Kathy

Danny Morrison says about
the untapped songwriting
talent. Kristofferson is the
writer of hits such as Me and
Bobby McGee and Help Me
Make It Through the Night.

API, formed last fall,
charges clients $180 each
quarter for its services. The
firm critiques up to four
songs per client every three
months and takes the best of
them to record producers in
an effort to get them re
corded.

The company has 100
clients, including doctors,
lawyers, engineers, car deal
ers and others with the
dream of writing songs.

“We're their representa.
tive on Music Row,” says co-
founder Johnny Slate, a vet.
eran songwriter as is Morri
son.

The clients get a kit con
taining a membership certifi:
cate, a booklet titled Song
writing From the Inside Out
and a pamphlet listing 15
steps known as “the hit
formula.”

After the clients mail in

hit, Blaze of Glory.

A recent critique to a client
in Chesapeake, Va., said:
“Try to experiment with
some different tempos.”

Another said: “Try to work
in some minor and seventh
chords into the verses in the
chorus only. It might make
them stand out from each
other a little more.”

A song titled Station to
Station will be recorded by
country music singer Dean
Dillon. It was written by Ian
Kemp of Nashville, a client of
the firm and an aspiring
composer.

Singer Anne Murray is
considering recording I Can't
Say No, written by API
clients Andy Spooner and
Bob Samples of Gallatin,
Tenn.

“We have 12 or 13 mem-
bers (clients) capable of writ-
ing hit songs and another 50
on the fence,” said Morrison.

Songs on API's “pitch list”
includes one titled Uncertain
Hurtin’ and Cold Day in My
Heart.
