To put it as succinctly as possible, Frankie Lathe is very warm right now. As summer stand-in for Arthur Godfrey and His Friends, Frankie has an eight-figure Wednesday night audience all built-in. In addition, he has his own filmed show (now seen in 81 cities), generous guest offers from a couple of the biggest shows on TV, a file case filled with night club bookings—and contracts to appear in five motion pictures. The Godfrey job came as a big surprise to Frankie. "I knew the line was out," he says. "But I didn't think I had a chance. It's one of the biggest things that ever happened to me."
