- <p> Just when it looked as if the world's most lovable frog
- might be put out to swamp, KERMIT has a new voice and a new
- lease on life. The amphibian will join the rest of his pals to
- salute their creator, the late Jim Henson, in a CBS-TV special
- to air this week. For 35 years Henson had been Kermit's voice,
- and after his death last May many feared Kermit would never
- speak again. But, says Cheryl Henson, Jim's daughter, "we found
- the kids really wanted to keep Kermit going." So an
- unidentified Muppet player was called upon to croak for Kermit.
