LOS ANGELES — (UPI) — Singer Eddie Fisher, perspiring and suffering from a high temperature, kept a personal appearance date last night at the Los Angeles Press Club but refused to discuss his marital problems.
Eddie Fisher Sings at Club
The boyish-faced crooner, whose dates in New York with actress Elizabeth Taylor were blamed for his separation from Debbie Reynolds, sang several songs before a capacity audience in his first public engagement since the breakup of his marriage.
Fisher entered the club just before he was scheduled to go on although he had been at the Ambassador Hotel for more than an hour, waiting in a private room to see if Debbie would appear
He said he wanted Miss Reynolds to enter the club first. When he became convinced Debbie was not going to appear as expected, he kept his five-week-old date to sing.
"I was told I wouldn't have to answer any personal questions. I'm just here as Eddie Fisher."
Immediately after finishing the last of five songs, Fisher left the hotel. He has been suffering from mononucleosis, a recurring blood disease, since his recent return from New York.
Asked if he had anything to say about his personal problems, Fisher said:
Feb. 13. The Immortal Garrison.
A 1956 Russian-language film with English titles.
March 20, Marcelino. A 1956 Spanish-language film, without English titles.

The U.S. Public Health Service has renewed an $8,233 grant to KU supporting investigation and development of compounds which have potential use as medicines
Psychology, Chemistry Get USPHS Grants
Dr. William E. McEwen, professor of chemistry, is director of the project, "Synthesis of Medicinal Agents from Reissert Compounds."
Assisting Dr. McEwen are Tsung-Kai Lioa, Formosa, and Eugene Podrebarac, Kansas City, Kan., graduate students.
Quick Money Covers Fees
Overcoming the "fee payment jitters," a Lawrence freshman made enough money in four days to pay his fees.
His job?
The program has been set up by Dr. A. J. Smith, professor of psychology, and will be administered by a full-time psychologist, Dr.Jay Jackson of Michigan University. The grant allows the social psychology program to be expanded and fellowships to be offered for graduate students.
Donald A. Leibengood showed movies in the Kansans for Right to Work booth at the Kansas Free Fair in Topeka, September 8-11. His hours were 10 a.m. to 10 p.m., and he received an hourly wage plus travel expenses.
KU has received a grant of $15.083 from the U.S. Public Health Service to organize a teaching program for research in social psychology.
Marching Band Needs Men
Sound easy? Maybe, but Don, who showed each of two movies favoring the right to work 48 times during the four days, reported that "after about the 30th time, they got a little old." As the movie projectionist, he also became the unwilling target for an argument upon occasion.
Ten to 30 people, depending on the time of day, attended each showing of the movies. According to Don, most people made no comment. Those who did bother seemed to be for the bill, although a few argued "rather emotionally" against it, he said.
As for Don's opinion on the controversial issue, he declared, "I'm neither for nor against. I'll leave that to the voters, come November. For now, I will just take the money."
Three graduate students holding the fellowships this year are Edward Turner, Topeka; Paul Wright, Lawrence, and Richard Lawless, Wichita. There will be five fellowships in future years.
Those who hold the fellowships receive training in research methods by undertaking research projects in social psychology. A project may last one semester or a full year. The grant may be renewed for the next four years.
Russell L. Wiley, professor of band, said yesterday that more men are needed for the University marching band. There are vacancies in the tuba, trombone, baritone and drum sections. Those wishing to audition may call KU extension 385 for an appointment.
No Reserve Books For Western Civ
The 1,085 students enrolled in the Western Civilization program this year will have no reading from books on reserve in the library. All readings are included in the material the students bought.
New instructors and their major fields of study are John G. Clark, Bernard W. Eissenstat, Nelson Hoffmann, all in history; James Graves, law; Constantine Kazazis, James Bishop, Robert James, all in political science; Harald Meyer, business; and Edgar Patterson, sociology.
Western Civilization reading program has been added to the curriculum of chemical engineers. They will take the exam with students in the Schools of Education and Journalism and the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences.
James E. Seaver, associate professor of history, heads the program and is assisted by James Schellenberg, assistant instructor of Western Civilization.
Chancellor Franklin D. Murphy is the youngest man ever to hold the top position at KU.
