[edit] Chronology?
What the heck does this mean? 1931=>1932=>1930=>1934...? "Healy continued to have great success in vaudeville, however. In 1931 he hired a new set of stooges, consisting of Eddie Moran (soon replaced by Richard "Dick" Hakins), Jack Wolf, and Paul "Mousie" Garner. The Howard-Fine-Howard Stooges rejoined Healy's act in 1932, obtaining higher salaries and a promise from Healy to quit drinking. They made one movie, appearing in Soup to Nuts (1930). Healy did not quit drinking, however, and when he cut the Stooges' salary in 1934, they quit again, this time permanently." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 139.72.158.28 (talk) 18:00, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Mannix and the fixers, strickland
Healy died thru hands of Wallace Beery? Who was he and how far was Mannix involved, Fixers book claims.
[edit] don't get it
This is a bit confusing. Was he celebrating the birth of his first son some time after the child was born? Or perhaps the birth was that of twins? Maybe health problems from the injuries persisted and eventually shortened his life a la Warhol?
"Newspaper accounts attributed his passing to serious head injuries sustained in a night-club brawl while celebrating the birth of his first child, a son."

[edit] Ted Healy and His Stooges
Is there a source on the claim that the Three Stooges never went by the name `Ted Healy and His Stooges'? While all other sources I've consulted say they DID go by this name, I'm wary of the way patently untrue movie trivia gradually morphs into accepted fact if repeated often enough, so I've got an open mind on this one (and have left the reference in).
