pro-f mygram, as through my filmsand concerts, I try tobring about my life-long

goal-of making opera live for morepeople. But this is a gradual processand so I hope that my future andthe future of 'popular' opera willgrow together."

Mario Lanza, who can "sing likeCaruso and sell records like Crosby,"is currently thrilling Sunday after-noon listeners to one of the brightestsummer shows on the airways. He'smaking musical comedy, popularballads and opera live for a coast tocoast audience who seem to be boost-ing his meteoric rise with the sameoverwhelming acclaim that greetedhis films and concerts. And he's ac-complishing all this as an eighteen -week summer replacement for the"Bergen -McCarthy" airer.

New Caruso?The "new Caruso," as many people

believe him to be, bears a real -lifecareer parallel to his famed prede-cessor, whom he so successfullyemulates in the current film. In 1921,when Lanza's voice first issued froma New York city nursery, Caruso'sgolden tones were heard for the lasttime. Both men had an Italian music -loving heritage, and Lanza was toshare Caruso's vocal coach, alongwith his tremendous voice range(Lanza, like Caruso, can sing eithertenor or bass). Even Lanza's impet-uous, bubbling personality has beenlikened to Caruso's-but just how farthis parallel can be drawn remainsto be seen. At the very least, Lanzais aiming for the same high pinnacleCaruso reached.

Like Caruso, Mario was the son ofa poor family. His father, as six -daybike racer until he was incapacitatedby World War I wounds, lived on agovernment pension which his moth-er augmented by working as a seam-stress. Mario inherited a love formusic frqm both his parents. Anyspare money that could be scrapedtogether went for records and concerttickets. "Caruso was Papa's favorite,"and by the time Mario was ten hewas thoroughly imbued with theplots and arias from scores of operas.At family gatherings, the teen -aged

lip POWER OF THE LANZA VOICE IS SO INTENSE that he stands well -back fromthe microphone to avoid distortion. Below, he reaches for a tall tone with

the backing of Ray Sinatra's orchestra.

boy was often asked to "sing likeCaruso."

Stage NameIt was from his mother's name-

Maria Lanza-that Alfred ArnoldCocozza derived his stage monicker,Mario Lanza, as the first step in ful-filling his life-long ambition to be-come a singer. However, in Philadel-phia's tough "Little Italy," whereMario grew up, it was safer to focuson athletics, so while training hisvoice, he also became Southern HighSchool's star baseball, football andboxing champ. This and some post-graduate semi-professional baseballand football account for the sturdyLanza physique, which he keeps intrim today, despite a propensity forpizza pie. The sports life he led sosuccessfully did not deter Mario fromthe thing he really wanted. He usedhis earnings for lessons. And how hebegan his singing career is a storythat, in his own words, "has all theelements of a class B musical."

"My grandfather thought I shouldexercise something besides my vocalchords, and got me a job as a pianomover in a music store."

It was while he was moving a

piano into the Philadelphia Academyof Music that Mario encounteredWilliam K. Huff, director of Philadel-phia Forum Concerts. Huff had heardLanza sing and was enthusiasticabout his talents. He advised Mariothat Koussevitzky was in a nearbydressing room. "The walls are thin,why don't you give him an aria?"

KoussevitzkyLanza recalls that he was half way

through "Vesta La Giubba" whenKoussevitzky burst into the room anddemanded to know his name.

A summer of work with the notedimpresario followed and Lanzamanaged to give one concert-a con-cert highly acclaimed by New Yorkcritics-before another "master" tookcharge of his career. He served threeyears in the United States Air Forceand a great portion of that time withthe "Winged Victory" troupe.

Another lucky break, after he wasdischarged, in 1945, brought Lanza toSam Weiler, a New York businessman with a fervent love for opera.Weiler, today Lanza's closest, friendand manager, took him to EnricoRosati, a famed vocal coach who,

A Ali ildigisto(EDITOR'S NOTE: A few weeks ago,

Hollywood was surprised when Ma!Boyd, an energetic, clean-cut young man,announced he was giving up his lucra-tive and promising association in PRB(Pickford, Rogers, Boyd) to study for theEpiscopalian ministry. A short time be-fore Mal's announcement, he had askedTV -Radio Life's editor if she would beinterested in a story about Buddy Rogers'comeback via TV. Mal had just barelyturned in his yarn when news of his in-tentions was spread. Asked whether hestill wanted his story to run, Ma! re-plied, "I sort of planned it that way.When I wrote the story, I had made upmy mind I was going to relinquish myshowbusiness interests. I wanted to writeit before my departure as an expres-sion of my regard for both Mary Pickfordand Buddy Rogers, and for our associa-tion which I shall never forget. It makesme very glad that you have liked thestory well enough to include it in TV -Radio Life.")

UDDY ROGERS' great show -business comeback in radioand TV, which contributedan item to trade historyduring the past couple of

years, made a lot of people veryhappy. And it made me, standing onthe sidelines, as happy as anybody.

Buddy was the top box-office moviestar in Hollywood in 1930. "Wings"catapulted him to sudden fame andhe scored, again and again, with toppictures. Then, he deserted picturesand achieved equal fame as a bandleader. His marriage to Mary Pick -ford was international news, uniting"America's Sweetheart" with "Amer-ica's Boy Friend." Shortly after PearlHarbor, however, Buddy Rogers dis-appeared from public view. He joinedUncle Sam as a ferry pilot and cameout of service, four years later, as aLieutenant Commander in the NavalReserve.

Groping for the right thing to do,and perhaps a trifle unsure of thepublic's response to him after somany years away, Buddy turned tomovie production. As a partner inTriangle Productions and Comet Pro-

He was tagged "America's Boy Friend," a label whichhas lasted almost as long as the "America's Sweet-heart" accolade granted to Mary Pickford.

Road to Reno," made in the early thirties, where his musical talent was used bythe studio.

ductions, he sat behind the desk andplayed producer on more than a half -

dozen pictures.It was at this stage in his career

that I first met Buddy Rogers.I remember our first meeting very

well. I had been engaged to handleradio exploitation on "Sleep MyLove," one of the films co -producedby Buddy and starring Claudette Col-bert, Robert Cummings and DonAmeche. Working out my masterplan for the campaign, I had comeup with the idea of using BuddyRogers, the co -producer, as a gueststar on some top radio shows to helpplug the film. His response, over thetelephone, had shown interest andsome reticence. But he was game. Ifany shows wanted him, he'd behappy to appear on them.

I was standing outside Earl Car -

roll's, on Sunset Boulevard, waitingfor Buddy to appear for his firstradio guest shot-on "Queen for aDay." I hadn't yet seen Buddy andI wasn't at all sure I could recognizehim, so I was watching doubly hard.

Then, a Chrysler station -wagon slidup to the curb and the driver gotout. It could only be Buddy Rogers.He was well -dressed, possessed greatpoise and his greying hair made himappear most distinguished. I greetedhim, we went over the script togetherand, a few minutes later, he wascalled out onto the stage by JackBailey. The audience went wild.

I knew in that instant that BuddyRogers was still a great public fa-vorite. He needed only the right ve-hicle to come back.

A guest appearance with the late

Tom Breneman on "Breakfast in Hol-lywood" followed a few days later,at Breneman's Restaurant on VineStreet. Buddy was planning to leavewithin a few days on an extendedtour of principal U. S. cities to meetthe press and tell the public about"Sleep My Love." At the last minute,his press agent to accompany himon the trip couldn't make it. Buddywas looking for someone to fill thebill, and I volunteered. At that timeI was running my own exploitationbusiness in Hollywood, but arrange-ments were concluded whereby theoffice could manage without me for

We flew from city to city in Buddy'stwin -engine Cessna plane, accom-panied by a co-pilot who helpedBuddy at the controls. The marathonwas on, and it was really a marathon.Buddy appeared on radio shows everyday in Dallas, Houston, Detroit, Cleve-land, Chicago, Minneapolis, St. Paul,Salt Lake, Denver, San Francisco . . .

THE TELEPROMPTER WHICH IS SHOWN ATTACHED above to the camera,has saved many a performer, even some of the greatest stars, from the

embarrassment of forgetting what comes next.

STRANGE lookinggadget which lookslike an outsized suit-case and is called theTeleprompter, is cur-rently being hailed by

harassed video actors as the greatestboon to television since the inventionof flourescent lighting took the per-formers out from under the blisteringordeal of hot lights.

This robot prompter, which me-chanically performs for TV actors thetraditional duties of the little manin the below -stage box at the operaor the whispering voice in the wings

at the theater, already has made theassorted crude devices and huge,hand -lettered cards as old fashionedas button shoes. With three top-flight video shows, vastly dissimiliarin format, already using the newestgimmick, other programs have in-dicated considerable interest in join-ing the parade.

Gnawing FearAny veteran actor will tell you that

no entertainment medium poses suchdifficult problems to the performersas television. Over and above thebedlam and confusion which existsin the studio, is the gnawing fear ofbeing left alone in front of thecameras without the slightest ideaof what happens next. This frighten-ing mental hazard of going complete-ly blank in the middle of a scenecan bob up in the minds of the mostexperienced actor or the veriest tyrowith but a single line to speak. Theopera, the stage, the movies andradio all protect their performersfrom this natural occupational fearin one way or another. But, until theinvention of the Teleprompter, tele-vision put most of its actors on theirown without any insurance againstfluffs or blowing -up sky-high. Eventhe greatest stage stars, in the stressof a performance have been known togo up in their lines at the most em-barrassing times. There is no ex-planation for it. It just happens inmuch the same manner as it hap-pens to all of us in our daily lives.Ever had to stop and look foolishwhen trying to recall your home ad-dress or telephone number? Or yourmother's maiden name?

The first TV program to realize theinherent worth of the new machinewas the CBS -TV daytime serial, "TheFirst Hundred Years," and now it isused on the Arthur Godfrey Show,"Howdy Doody" and John ConteShow.

Looks LikeKTLA's "Magazine of the Week" is

back, after a well-earned vacation,and is again seen Sunday night at10:30 on Channel 5. . . . Doye O'Dell'sbig birthday party at KTLA marked thepopular cowboy's second anniversary.The doings also came as a completesurprise to Doye, with not even thepress being sipped as to what wouldbe going on. . . . Ronson Art MetalWorks (Ronson lighters, to you) aresponsors of a new and elaboratecomedy -variety TV show, "Ronson'sStar of the Family," in which PeterLind Hayes and wife Mary Healy -darlings of theater, movies and TVaudiences -will be starred, with im-portant names of the entertainmentworld on hand. The CBS -TV offeringwill be showing up on KTSL one ofthese nights.

Another system of color TV hasreared its lovely head and is beingcurrently ona Philadelphia station. WPTZ. ThePhilco system is supposedly completelydifferent from either NBC -TV's or CBS -TV's. . . . Theater TV is under the guntwo -fold. Corgress and an independentorganization called "Fair TelevisionPractices Committee" are both snip-ing at any tying up of special eventsfor merely those of a mind to turnout to the theater to see their TV. . . -

Dinah Shore is to have a TV show,coming from Hollywood, this fall. NBCis the net. . . . Thpre will soon be aweekly bowling telecast to be seen onKTTV's Channel 11.

The pace finally caught up withJerry Lewis who, to our eyes, at least,has more than once supplied all thecomedy of the Dean Martin -Jerry Lewisturns!) and the toothy funnyman hasbeen forced to cancel out the duo'sroad act for at least a month. He re-turns to Hollywood to enjoy what willprobably be one of themost expensiverests of show business WalterWinchell will be seen punching acrosshis bits for Jergens this fall when thebroadcast becomes a simulcast. - . .

Joan Crawford isslated to appear on TV, touting herself -designed and fashionconsultedbrand of wearing apparel. Unmentionables, except on TV! . . . NBC.TV stillhas no definite plans for its sleepercomic, Jerry Lester.... Frank Sinatrawill be opposite Milton Berle on theirrespective TV channels this fall. Wehave to choose between swooning andlaughing?

The Russells, Andy and Della, areshopping for a new husband -and -wifeformat for TV.... Sponsorship for SamLevenson is lagging.

"Faith Baldwin TheaterOf Romanceff

Saturday, 12:30 p.m. (Alt.)ABC-TV, KECA-TV, Channel 7

Any reader death-less and highly romantic prose is go-ing to get just what he expects in hertelevised series. Romantic traumas,plenty of suffering on the part of thelovers, and a happy ending. The Isaw youlast-nightand-got-that-old-feeling theme is as good as ever, andwhen well cast and cameraed, turnsout as pretty good entertainment. Thedialog is always amazingly good, andthis isn't easy when either requited orunrequited love serves unfailingly asthe theme of a half hour.

While we wouldn't deliberately stayhome from the beach to catch theshow, we have a healthy respect forthe production units behind this mush.As long as that is their product, theymake the very best of televisedmush.

Authoress Faith Baldwin narratesthe dramas adapted from her stories,lending the last fine touch.

"Man Against Crime",Friday, 8:30 p.m.CBS -TV, KTSL, Channel 2

Robert Preston has taken over forRalph Bellamy on this half-hour mys-tery roughin'tumble. He plays "PatBarnett," the former private eye"Mike Barnett's" brother. It's a goodtrick, When a star goes on vacation,to run his substitute in on the play bymeans of a brand-new character whokeeps everybody happy.

"Pat" continues to prove there areno perfect crimes, meeting fantastical-ly menacing types and overcoming

hazards by the dozens weekly. Theshow is lively and suspenseful andwell performei, and if mystery is yourdish you can't ask for more. We likeit -a lot.

"Mr. Wizard"Sunday, -4:00 p.n.NBC-Tiz,KNBH, Channel 4

Don "Mr. Wizard" Herbert demon-strates to a small pal, "Willie" (BruceLindgren), what makes the world goround. He may merely take a clockapart to find the tick. He may extendthis to show the necessity for the in-ternational date line and time zonesacross the country, and the workingsof pendulums. Or he may start withsomething simple like salt, a balloon,or a tape measure. Whatever the topicof the {lay's explanation, the Juniorin any watching household isn't theonly one to benefit.

Rare and wonderful things are thebasis of our everyday life, and Herbertpresents them for small fry in a man-ner blessedly free of that sickening"and -so -you -see -sonny" manner thatmany times robs the factual of any ap-peal.

Join Junior at the set -side some Sun-day and see how much you can stilllearn!

"General ElectricGuest House"

Sunday, 9:00 p.m.CBS -TV, KTSI., Channel 2

With panelists and guest performersreading like a roll call at ah equitymeeting, it's little wonder that G.EI'squiz show is tops in its category. Dur-ward Kirby, emcee, handles his choresadmirably, without concentrating onhaving his personality dominate theprogram.

Thespians Wendy Barrie, WilliamGaxton, Barry Nelson and authorMaurice Zolotow comprised the panelof experts. The performers were singerMaggie Whiting, Eadie and Wright,duo pianists. Roland Young, dancerDorothy Jarnac, and, from the Broad-way stage, Marsha Henderson andJack Manning. Clues for the panelistswere provided by the talent's respec-tive performances. This guessing gamesmacks of radio's "Information Please,"with emphasis on show -business ques-tions. Special mention goes to DorothyJarnac for her clever pantomime andto Roland Young, who delivered thelate Robert Benchley's "Treasurer's Re-port" with proper uncertainty and be-wilderment.

"Guest House," in combining infor-mality, intelligence and entertain-ment, is far above the preponderanceof quiz shows.

sticking by Lorraine and the boys inher band for the full hour duringwhich they "entertain." The one goodthing were the strains from that beau-tiful first trumpet:

The band may be all right (we hadlistened to "The Voice of Firestone"the evening before, so comparisonstood in the way of an evaluation!) ;Miss Cugat is better -than -averagegood looking; and the stage was wellset and lighted. But, in our opinion,this sixty m:.nutes could offer much,much more in the way of "talent."

The corned: an fell far short of beingamusing, and the personable leaderherself, oannct, to our way of thinking,be called a singer. Furthermore, shedetracts from her performance by sup-planting poise with sinuous wrigglingsand meaningful glances. The visitingtalent, notw:.thstanding the glowingintroductions seemed mediocre.

Only that trumpet stood out. Ourenjoyment of his passages remainedunalloyed, for by the end of the firsthalf hour our eyes were closed to thetravesty on showmanship passing be-fore us on the television screen.

Ina Ray Hutton certainly startedsomething! If Miss Cugat wants ourlooking, she had better revamp thatshow and slow down the free -wheelingdemonstration.

Lovers of Latin rhythms will findthe hour right up their alley. Plentyof fresh tur.es, well played, providea refreshing departure from many ofthe below -the -border formats throughwhich the same tired tunes by thesame tired Latins are paraded.

After all, tne name Cugat is synony-rnous with this sort of thing -andLorraine dis2lays capabilities for car-rying the banner right along. We hopeshe does.

"/ fEart to Get Married'Tuesday, 9:00 p.m.KTTV, Cha!mei 11

"I Want to Get Married" is, in ouropinion, based on the kind of sensa-tionalistic premise that, in actual pro-duction, can t help but have a falselycontrived ai about it.

Personally, we feel that the idea ofparading people's matrimonial aspira-tions in front of a video camera is badtaste to begin with and, unless han-dled with utmost discretion, is renderedextremely shoddy. We felt uncomfort-ably sorry for the contestants on thefirst program, although our sympathywas lost as the show wore on and thefeeling that this, had not gone unre-hearsed began to permeate our air.

Before a panel of "experts" whichconsisted of Bill Welsh, MGM actressLisa Farriday and Stanley Gordon,four would-be marriageables discussedthe problems barring their respectivepaths to wedded bliss.

Jack Rourke, "Master of Matrimony,"solved the dilemma of a lovely pro-fessional model who needed a job, bymaking her his permanent assistanton the show. The glamour gal seemedto us to be -he most flagrant exampleof pre -show coaching. One obstacleto marriage in her life was, as we

panel with the tale of how he had losthis childhood sweetheart to a mu-sician. Seems he wanted to learn toplay the musical saw and thus offerhis rival some competition, but hespent so much time practicing on thesaw that he lost his gal. He wasstraightforwa-d in stating that hewas looking for a well-to-do woman tomarry, and needed a suit of clothesto further his pursuit. He received anorder for the suit.

Another rniddleaged woman be-lieved that a course of beauty treat-ments, which she was awarded, wouldhelp her to get married, and a Holly-wood photographer, Danny Rowser,felt than dancing lessons would be adefinite help in pressing his search fora mate. Accordingly, he was given acourse of lessons.

Actually, the basic premise of Masterof Matrimony Rourke is not to get thecontestants married off, but to helpthem remove obstacles which theythemselves believe prevent this. A not -at -all unworthy object, but in thiscase, 'we'd say furthered only by badtaste and bad format. However, thefine showmanship which Rourke andothers have exhibited in the pastshould come to the fore beforetoo many more programs have beenscreened, so that both the show's con-testants and its viewers may look for-ward to unusual and rewarding enter-tainment.

"Bachelor's Haven"Monday. 7 p.m.KTSL. Channel .2

This choice time is turned over towhat seemed to us to be merely a poor"Leave It to the Girls" in reverse.

A certain premise is raised fromtime to time, and the men oppose thewomen in deciding such world-shak-ing posers as "Are women gettinglazier?" or "Do women like men whotreat 'em toagh and make 'em likeit?" The panel dig into these, every-one seemingly talking at the sametime and dealing in trivia in keepingwith the original discussion sugges-tion. Unbelievably enough, prizes orsomething are sent to the writers whocontribute the used topics of the eve-ning.

The first night we saw the' "show,"Kay Aldridge, a lovely -looking NewYork stage personality, was on hand,with Hazel Brooks of the moviesabetting the feminine side of the ques-tions. Torn Conway, a well-known ac-tor. and Paul Coates. a top newspapercolumnist, undertook to hold up themasculine v.ewpoint. Through it all.moderator Johnny Jacobs (a televisionpersonality we would like to see more)attempted to keep the contenders fromone another's throats. It wasn't hard.In fact it was so easy that he hadplenty of time to fill in the lapses withthe only interesting gab of the wholethirty minutes.

Mind you, all this is merely ouropinion. We may have had an offnight. Of ccurse it seemed to us itwas the show that had its off night!

In any event, we'll still take "TheGirls' " show!

ton, stars of KTLA's "Handy Hints,"Monday through Friday, 6:45 p.m.

Each week we pick the best HandyHint sent directly to T', Radio Life,6361 Selma Avenue, Hollywood 28, anduse it, with your name and address,in this column as well as on the airover KTLA, Friday evening at 6:45. Alovely gift will, be sent to everyonewhose hint is used here as KTLA-TV-Radio Life Hint of the week.

Here is this week's winner: Mrs.Harry Bougeno, Jr., 10106 Burl Ave.,Inglewood 2, Calif.

Her hint is:If you have small children who

aren't tall enough to reach the washbasin, make a small bench about nineinches from the ground. They can usethe bench to stand on so they canreach the basin. If you put arms on thebench about twelve inches from theground and make it so that it will fitover one of your breakfast chairs, itwill also serve as a junior chair, thuseliminating another piece of furniture.It cah be painted and decorated witha few decals to make it more attrac-tive.

THIS IS A TIME-SAVER FOR YOUBUSY HOUSEWIVES. It's a clothespinjar nailed halfway up on your clothes.line post. Use a three -pound glassshortening jar and nail the lid to thepost. Fill jar, with your clothespinsand screw to lid. There you have yourpins all clean, out of your way, yetstill handy when needed.

NEED A TRELLIS FOR A POTTEDPLANT? If so, one can easily be madeout of a wire coat hanger. Form afigure eight and straighten out thehook, which is inserted into theground far enough to give it balance.

THE NEXT TIME YOU WANT TOPAINT FLOWER POTS, tie a stringor cord around a stick and put cord upthrough the hole in the bottom ofthe flower pot. Then tie it to theclothesline, paint the pots and letthem hang until* dry.

TRY USING PLASTIC MATERIALOR OILCLOTH FOR YOUR CUPBOARDSHELVES; you'll find it's a lot easier

-just to take a damp cloth and wipe itclean than to have to replace eachtime with shelf .paper. In fact, if youhave an old plastic tablecloth, justcut it up to fit the shelves.

Joe Mazucca must be in possessionof Aladdin's Lamp. Golly, he's going toIndia with the Ed McConnell TV show,where Mr. Ferrin, the show's producer,is going to shootsome scenes. Andwhile abroad, Joewill make a side tripto Italy to see hisgrandptrents for thevery first time. Ifyou watch this showor hear the Ed Mc-Connell radio show,Joe is the boy whodoubles in the Afri-can and Indian boyroles. How lucky canyou get?

Little Billy Chapin has been in pic-tures since he was twenty days old.Gee, how old is that? And now, at six,Billy has been signed to play "Kevin"in "Three Wishes for Jamie" and hasalready left for San Francisco with hismother, where the show will play forsix weeks. On September 17, it willopen at the Shubert Theater in NewYork. Brother Michael, who is so proudof Billy, couldn't go along, becausehis third starring picture, "SaddlePals," is already under way at Re-public.

"That Williamson Penny" on "StarsOver Hollywood" last week featuredlittle Sheila James as "Sue," the samerole she played last summer when thisshow was regularly on the air. Buther older sister on the "Stars Over Hol-lywood" show was played by DorothySparks, who is Penny Singleton's real -life daughter. This was Dorothy's radiodebut and she did very well.

Jeri James, who is Sheila's little sis-ter, makes her third appearance on theBurns and Allen TV show, August16. Butch Cavell, by the way, is a reg-ular on this show.

Peter Votrian, a regular on Fantas-tick Studios Ink, is now "Ronald" in"Alias Jane Doe," a CBS summer showwhich stars Lurene Tuttle. We're goingto hear a lot about Peter, because withall his talent he simply can't miss.

Hundreds of little boys were inter-viewed for the boy lead in Abbott andCostello's independent p r o d u c t i o n,"Jack and the Beanstalk," and ten-year -old David Stollery was the win-ner. David is a good-looking blond boywith a lot of TV behind him. Congratu-lations, David.

Carol Coombs and Karen Kester arenew names in this column, and likeall the rest of the new names thatcome in from time to time they arewelcome. Carol and Kester will beheard at voices of some of the mer-maids in the Walt Disney picture"Peter Pan."

NBC's Silver JubileeNBC's news department, as part of the net's jubilee

celebration, is planning a series of twenty-five half-hourdocumentary broadcasts, each of which will deal withthe major news events of one year. In addition to thefront-page coverage, there will be items on the plays,books and films of the year, celebrities' doings, human -interest yarns and other material catching the nostalgicflavor of the period.

Narcotics Rebroadcast"The Truth About Narcotics." a dramatic analysis of

the- nation's dope problem featuring Malcolm Johnson,Pulitzer Prize-winning crime reporter of InternationalNews Service, will be rebroadcast_ by NBC on three suc-cessive Saturday evenings, August 11, 18 and 25 at 4:30p.m. This came as a result of the many letters NBC hasreceived urging another airing of the narcotics series.NBC correspondents around the world contributed infor-mation for the survey of dope from the poppy fields tobig -city "pushers." Fritz Littlejohn of the NBC News andSpecial Events Department spent six weeks talking withpolice and narcotics control officials in nine majorAmerican cities. The three programs include testimonyof addicts,- doctors and top-ranking federal officials.Joseph Meyers produced the series under supervision ofHenry Cassidy, director of NBC's Radio News and SpecialEvents Department. The Senate Crime Investigating Com-mittee has requested a transcript of the series to aid itsstudy of America's narcotics racket.

ing," has accepted the invitation of USO Camp Shows Inc.and will make a three-week flying trip to military in-stallations in the European Theater of Operations beginning August 10 to tape broadcasts for U.

"The Sheriff"Saturday, 5:30 p.m.ABC-RECA, %FMB

Adventure via the mike, tailored especially for teen-agelisteners and yet not offensive to adult set-siders who goin for action radio drama, is wrapped up in ABC's "TheSheriff," which takes care of the later half of this net'sSaturday night story hour which begins with "The LoneRanger." "The Sheriff" is built around the idea thatthe old-time Western law enforcer who has gone moderntoday has some interesting escapades to relate.

Each story line sticks rather closely to the scientific ap-,.proach used in solving the crime. One broadcast entitled"Throw Another Corpse on the Fire" concerned the opera-tions of a criminally inclined firebug. Danny, the guiltyman, was involved in a love affair with his best friend'swife, and tried to pin the crime on him. The script fol-lowed in an elementary way the steps taken by "SheriffChase" to trace the murderer who had set fire to a couplePage Twenty

TV -RADIO LIFE

Radio in Review-Continuedof business houses. Just enough, but not too much, wasmade of the love intrigue, and this part of the story wasin good taste so as not to mislead young listeners andstill 'retain enough realism to be credible. Youngsterswould probably find no trouble following the plot, as itis kept simple and is set in a small-town sheriff's terri-tory.

Adults would be able to discover with little effort allthe weak points in the solution of the crime and no doubtturn thumbs down on the radio story. Youngsters, how-ever, would be able to keep one step ahead of the sheriffat time, but that would only create interest in the actiondrama for them, because they like to solve puzzles of anykind. "The Sheriff" is not up to the finer dramatic pro-ductions aired for adult audiences, but then that is notto be expected under its banner of appealing to youngerfans. They will like it as far as regular adventure storiesgo, because it's interesting and has plenty of fast, under-standable action . . . and what's more parents won'tfrown on it, either.

"Musical Merry -Go -Round"Saturday, 8:00 p.m.

Eloise McElhone, a femcee frequently heard over anumber of radio shows, does very nicely as hostess onthis week -end platter party. There is much that can bedone to give appeal to musical radio as offered by thedisc jockey. Eloise McElhone seemed to use care in select-ing her records, which at times were far off the hit -parade beaten path, but were refreshing to hear.

This is a platter show which aims to offer "musicAmerica loves best with everything from the classics tothe comics." A recent program included, a Hugo Winter -halter arrangement of "Wind of the Seas," a numberwhich, although not spectacular in any fashion, caughtthe flavor of the islands. A new slow-paced Perry Comolove ballad, "Cara Cara, Bella Bella," was also put onthe turntable. In keeping with the sentimental -type"night" tunes on the musical agenda. April Stevens'srendition of "That Dreamy Melody" was also played. Arecord entitled "What Is God?" contrasted with the otherplatters played the same evening, but was a welcomelistening item. It featured Don McNeill of "BreakfastClub" renown reciting and Fran Allison, of "Aunt Fanny"fame, doing the lyrics.

Many platters put on by Eloise McElhone need a littleexplaining or background coverage and that is ably takencare of by the lady disc jockey in this case. She addschatter about the composers, type of tunes played andthe music men responsible for the arrangements withoutin any way detracting from the listening pleasure of thesongs themselves.

Maybe you won't hear your favorite melody every Sat-urday night on the "Musical Merry -Go -Round" (not, bythe way, to be confused with "Manhattan Merry -Go -Round") but you will hear some of the better new tunesin arrangements which might well make them your topchoice for repeat spinnings.

Subs for GodfreyMonday. 8:30 p.m.CBS-KNX

Arthur Godfrey, one of the first men to be caught bycolor TV and the radio man' with one of the largest fol-lowings in mike history, left his "Talent Scouts" in chargeof Hoosier humorist Herb Shriner when he went off vaca-tioning. Herb Shriner, judging from his last week's air -show, stepped into Godfrey's shoes without any fuss orbother and with a fist full of folksy laugh lines.

It was the same slow -timed jokes and casual approachto the serious which have made the feller from Indianaan appealing comic on radio, TV and the Broadway stage,that emanated from the mike last week. He had no troublegetting the laughs with his talk about Congress, taxes,and mostly about the folks "back there in Indiana." Hot

0 weather prompted his priceless remarks about swimmingconditions in the Hoosier state, where, he said, "We hadto boil water before we could swim in it ... and the onlyswimming hole was the mirage at the end of town thatPage Iwpnty-two

TV -RADIO LIFE

'Radio in Review-Continuedwas really a sort of gravel pit" ... and about the vaca-tion resorts where "the girls were looking for husbands-and, of course the husbands were looking for girls."

Once Herb Shriner got' started with his jokes he seemedreluctant to bring on the talent scouts and their talent,but he did manage to point the spotlight on four con-testants. He followed Godfrey's format in handling thescouts and the hopefuls, by kidding them a little andtwisting their serious statements into funny ones. Twoopera singers, a violinist and a young feminine ventrilo-quist were in the entertainment line-up. As usual, theyperformed with varying degrees of capabilities, but at alltimes put on a good show.

Some may prefer Godfrey to Shriner when it comes tocomics, but that is not the question to be settled here oron this replacement series with the "Talent Scouts." It'sa sure thing that whichever one of these casual jokesterstakes to the mike, you are assured plenty of laughs.

"Martin Kane, Private Eye"Sunday, 3:00 p.m.NBC-KFI

This pipe -smoking master of mystery, as portrayed byLloyd Nolan, easily ranks among radio's more polishedPrivate policemen. His are the capers that make a listenerappreciate a nicely turned murder, because he always,gets his man (or woman) and in a logically suspensefulmanner.

A woman psychiatrist, who 'had a somewhat unbal-aneed, though not insane, man patient, was one of"Kane's" recent customers. She called "Kane" in to pro-tect her from the patient, whom she wished to cure of hisfixations. In the process of being cured, the man hadfallen in love with his doctor and refused to take "no"for an answer.

The plight of this woman doctor was not as unplausibleas it appears on first reading, and scripters struck a nicebalance between believable characterization and imagi-nation, in portraying both the doctor and her furiouslysmitten patient. The suitor considered "Kane" a rival forthe doctor's attentions, which brought about some humor-ous byplay. But when the patient was murdered, "Kane"dropped his light-hearted bantering about playing body-guard to an attractive and admired medico, and got downto cases.

"Kane" uncovered the existence of another wife thatthe patient just happened to have, a wife who, it ap-peared, was just as jealous as her mate and who hadmurdered her husband and almost succeeded in killinghis doctor, too. "Kane" drew the case to a fine conclusionand, with humor intact, began thinking about takingpsychoanalysis for himself, naturally from an attractivedoctor.

Nolan's fine acting and an unexaggerated plot are buttwo of the features of "Martin Kane, Private Eye" thatmake it one of our favorite listening habits.

`Marines Pass in Review"Saturday, 9:00 p.m.RECA

People often forget or are unaware of the fact thatmen in the armed forces do more than march, shoot gunsand salute officers. It takes a program like "MarinesPass in Review" to make listeners aware that the menin uniform are very busy making music and generallyputting on a good show.

This particular airshow is backed by the CampPendleton Marine band, which can put any group of popperformers in the shadow any day. The musical arrange.ments are very fine, plus the fact that they have a vital-ity and sparkle to them. When the Marines from CampPendleton take to the bandstand on this broadcast thereis nothing haphazard about their presentations. Suchsongs as "Hullabaloo" and "The Tenth Regiment March"were included in one night's selections. Vocalizing wasdone on "I Apologize" by Sergeant Jack Daley, and a-male chorus offered an interpretation of Jerome Kern's"Old Man River."

Well integrated in the musical programming are dra-, Page Twenty-four

TV -RADIO LIFE

Radio in Review-Continuedrnatie and narrative episodes picturing the military ac-tivities of the U. S. Marines. A recent airshow spotlightedthe helibopter operations presented for the members ofthe press recently during a mock enemy invasion atCamp Pendleton, All the realism and military strategy,used during the actual event were captured on tape forthe listening audience. Each program includes some ofthe history of the men who make up one of the toughestarms' of the nation's military force, as well as timelyfacts on recruitment and advantages of this particularbranch of the service.

There are few spots on your radio dial where you canget as much vigorous music and narrative -dramatic fareas you can on "Marines Pass in Review," and at the sametime be informed on one facet of the nation's defense.

Playbacks Critical )Comment

We Point With PrideTo Ed Begley's fine portrayal of the narrator in the

"American Portraits" broadcast dealing with "Stonewall"Jackson.

"Philo Vance"Tuesday and Thursday, 6:30 p.m.ABC-ICECA

It may be his hectic two -cases -a -week schedule, but webelieve "Philo Vance" is lagging far behind his fellowprivate -eye artists in dramatic impact and suspense.

"Vance" is supprisedly the sophisticated, analytical typedetectiVe whose outward boredom with such trivialitiesas murders actually covers a heart of gold and a brilliant-ly calculating mind. Such a mike -up alone necessitates aplausible crime and solution thereof to spell any sort ofgood mystery drama. But, if recent shows are an example,even "Vance's" methodically clicking mind can't quitegrasp the myriad' weird machinations of plot and counter-plot that have come his way..

A case in point was the very intricate murder of anairline pilot who had been running around with anotherman's wife. The pilot was also supposedly interested ina girl who was in turn interested in another pilot. Netresult: suspects were the husband of the straying wife,although his knowledge of his wife's indiscretions wasnever explained; the other pilot, whose character was sodimly drawn that his motivations were muddled; and,for another unaccountable reason, the girl in whom thepilot had been interested. Confusing? We thought so too,and even "Vance" couldn't convince us that he knewwhat was going on, or why.

"Vance" did manage to come up with the murderer,by a not very ingenious trick of proving that the murder-er's familiarity with the room in which the crime wascommitted indicated that he was the killer. But we Con-fess, even though we know now who dun it. for the lifeof us we can't understand the murder's motivations orwhy "Vance" bothered with the whole case.

We'll tune in on "Philo" again, soon, and see if he's -doing any better in the detecting racket. Better charac-terization, more exciting and plausibly projected casesare what we'll be looking for next time, and we hope"Philo" comes up with them, because he seems to 'le agood character, and we hate to see him waste his talentsvia Mediocre scripting.

TV -RADIO LIFE

Radio in Review-Continueddesignating Friday, July 28, as "Phil Harris DO" through-out the city: And Nashvillians did celebrate. All of thefestivities were for the benefit bf the Kiwanis youthfunds, and Harris headlined an all-star show as part ofthe giant affair.

A commission as a "Tennessee Colonel," presented byGovernpr Gordon Browning, was among honors heapedupon the- popular comedian during his visit home.

In thanking the crowd for their hospitality, Harris re-marked, "Coming here was the happiest note of my life.I've never received such a wonderful reception."

"Horse -Doctor"Don MacLaughlin, "Dr. Jim Brent" on NBC's popular

daytime drama "The Road of Life." is possibly the onlyman in broadcasting who got his start by neighing like

horse. His first network radio role was cut out of thescript during rehearsal and MacLaughlin was assignedto help the sound -effects man by making like a nag.

But that incident marked the first and last exhibit ofs his equine ability. From that beginning he went on to

become one of today's most successful radio actors.Prior to his first mikeside appearance. however, Mac -

Laughlin had chalked up another distinction-he hadactually taken a slow boat to China! MacLaughlin wasborn in Webster, Iowa, but because of his father's pre-carious health his family moved frequently during hischildhood. He spent many of his growing summers at vari-ous jobs-as a timekeeper in a dial -telephone company,as an illustrator, as a designer of miniature golf courses,and once as a butcher.

He majored in English and dramatics while at theUniversity of Arizona and graduated to teach high schoolin his Iowa home town during the depression days. Hethen headed for New York, where he spent another yearas a clerk in a theatrical booking office. This, too, wasunsatisfying so Don decided to visit a cousin in Singapore.He signed on as a seaman on a slow freighter.

A couple of years later he returned to New York, alsoby slow freighter, and married Mary Prugh, a youngmiss who worked on a newspaper.

While an undergraduate at college, Don had made asuccessful radio debut on the Tucson NBC affiliate, sohe decided to try his acting future further. His first radioaudition was for a job as an announcer on a local NewYork station. The audition consisted of reading a news-cast. When it was over, Don learned that he had actuallybeen on the air all the time. "That blessed experience,"he says, "kept me from ever developing mike fright."

Next came a season of one-night stands touring withLittle Jack Little's band, as road manager. After that,the young actor joined a group which did a great dealof unnaid work, for "experience." He and Kenny Delmar.best known as "Senator Clagnorn," were members of aradio stock company which evolved from this search forexperience.

Then followed a year of radio work in San Francisco,from which Don managed to land a solid part in an NBCserial. Besides his role in "The Road of Life," which hehas enacted for the past four years, MacLaughlin playsthe lead in NBC's weekly "Counter -Spy" dramas, and hashad leading roles in fourteen major network series todate.

MacLaughlin's most loyal audience now includes hiswife, and three children, Douglas, twelve, Jeannette, nine,and Britton, six.

Corset History Air edMary. Margaret McBride, who has had many an interest-

ing personality on her ABC programs, found herselfdelving into the history of the corset when she had his-torian Earl Newton as a guest. Mr. Newton. editor of theAmerican. Heritage Magazine. informed Mary Margaretthat Cleopatra was not the first woman to resort to thecorset effect.

"Then came the days when they were made withwrought iron by the same craftsmen who built the medi-eval torture- instruments. Some women might suggest thatthere isn't much difference between a corset and a tortureinstrument," Newton concluded.

Mary Margaret feels that many women from personalexperiences can agree with the above statement.

Modern RomancesPeter Martin, script supervisor for "Modern Romances"

(KECA, 12:30 p.m., Monday through Friday) avoids soap -opera situations in "romance" scripts. "People haveenough to depress them without listening to misery anddespair on the airwaves," claims Peter. "That's why Iask my writers to avoid soap -opera situations and drawon down-to-earth problems that people face every dayand solve sensibly without tearing their hair out or car-rying on in a vale of tears."

The staff of "romance" writers includes Vera Oldham.Michael Sklar and Don Witty, who use no "formulas."Don Witty has emerged as a very versatile writer on thelighter side of life. Vera Oldham and Michael Sklar havedone exceptional scripts, according to Martin, in relatingthe realistic and credible experiences in real -life dramas.Their characters are drawn from people who hold or-dinary working jobs as well as people whose backgroundsare more unusual. Their problems and the decisions theymake are similar to those we all have in day-to-day liv-ing; or their amusing experiences pleasantly remind usof our own or those of friends.

The stories dramatized on the daytime dramatic seriesare narrated by Helen Gregory. As story editor she pre-sents them as a friend would tell of their experiences,and they are enacted by top-flight radio actors. Bill Mar-shall is director of "Modern Romances" program andGeorge Henninger scores the original dramatic music.* *

MechanicalMemory for TV

(Continued from Page 6)back -breaking schedule. Seeking togive aid, comfort and peace -of -mindinsurance to the harried actors, aswell as to insure uniform good per-formances, the producers of the.pioneer detergent drama experi-mented with the Teleprompter andfound it worked. Since the programwent on the air last December, oneof the problems that has vanishedinto thin air is the problem of fluffs,missed cues and anxiety -ridden ac-tors. The thing works and works well.

Basically, the Teleprompter, four,of which are used on a program, isa rectangular box about two -and -a -half feet high and a foot -and -a -halfwide. The entire script, printed ininch -high letters by a special type-writer, unwinds 'electrically on tworollers, the pace being controlled byan operator seated at a master ma-chine in an unused corner of thestudio. This operator, following thedialogue through earphones, regu-lates the speed of the script throughthe other machines by a series ofbuttons, much like working an elec-tric train set.

At Eye LevelJust off the studio set itself, the

other three Teleprompters are placedin the most strategic locations forthe actors. Set at eye level, all actorsin the scene can see at least onescript without having tp turn theirheads or make it apparent to the au-dience that the lines are being read.Two of the machines are mobile, be-ing carried by an operator aroundhis neck by means of a leather strap.The other machine is stationary,placed usually at the side of thecenter video camera. By using themobile machines, the problem ofsetting them up for a subsequent

scene is vastly simplified, the opera-tor or carrier merely moving to theoutskirts of "the new set.

This boon to harried video per-formers was invented by Fred Barton,a young actor, who, as a memberof the cast of the Broadway hit, "Mr.Roberts," noticed that a commoncomplaint that inevitably croppedup in a discussion of the hazards ofvideo acting was the unbelievablefear of fluffing, going blank andgenerally messing up a performance.Surely, he reasoned, there must bea better way to safeguard a costlyperformance than by the usevf hugecards, which never could:. containeverything necessary anyway. Toy-ing with one idea after another, Fredsuddenly hit on the idea of. the en-tire script being unfurled on rollers,paced to the speed of the actors' de-livery. He built one or two experi-mental machines, worked out thebugs, eventually got what he wanted.

The large cast, of "The Firit Hun-dred Years," many of whom are vet-erans of stage, screen and stockcompany grinds, readily admit thatthe Teleprompter has done wondersfor their performances. "It's not thatwe rely on it exclusively," saidRobert Armstrong, former featuredplayer on Broadway and Hollywood,"in fact, we memorize our lines -care-fully each day.' But we always knowthe thing is there when ,we want it,which is only once or twirl' a weekat most. You know," chuckled Arm-strong, "it gives me the wonderfulsensation of having money in thebank. It's there when I need it."

after Mario's first lesson remarked:"I have waited thirty-four years foryou to come along!' Now you aregoing to work'so hard you'll wish wehad never met."

The results of that hard work wereevident in the twelve minutes of ap-plause which greeted Mario's Holly-wood Bowl debut, some fifteenmonths later. The applause fell onthe ears of Louis B. Mayer, who wasin the audience, and he quickly ar-ranged a command performance forthe studios' top producers whichlaunched Mario on a film career tothe'tune of Mayer's extravagant com-ment: "You're going to be a singingClark Gable!"

"Fame Is the Spur"Mario hopes to be more than that.

His ever-growing talents havebrought him fame in films, concerts,and now radio, "where I am grate-fully able to reach an even greaternumber of people." In his broadcasts,as in the other mediums,' he sayshe's "bringing in more and moreopera, spieing each show with atouch of it. But not to the exclusionof other types of music."

With his guest vocalists and RaySinatra's orchestra, Lanza manages

the usual press interviews and meet-ings with exhibitors. But the qualitydf his work never 'faltered. No matterhow tired he became, he kept righton slugging to make his trip as muchof a success as he possibly could. Myadmiration for him couldn't havebeen exceeded. He was a real trouper.

After the trip, and a long. rest, Iorganized a radio package showbuilt around Buddy as star. The prin-cipals involved, including Buddy andmyself, flew to San Francisco to"cut" the audition record at NBCthere. Mary Pickford accompanied us,and made a guest appearance on theprogram. There was intense interestin the show, and sales prospectswere hot, when Horace Heidt wassigned to headline an almost, iden-tical format. Heidt had been workinga long time on a talent format, andneither party had any way of know-ing what the other was doing! Callit fate, or bad luck, or the breaks;but my plans for Buddy came to astandstill.

I lined up a couple of isolated dra-matic guest appearances for Buddyon "Stars Over Hollywood" and"Skippy's Hollywood Theatre," but Ihad no over-all plan in mind.

A year must have passed, and Ibecame interested in, TV (as whodidn't?) and plans were made toproduce a video show with BenayVenuta. But she was suddenly un-able to go on with the project andwe had no idea who could take herplace. I remember, in the middle ofour conversations, that I telephonedBuddy to thank him for a Christmaspresent which he had left for me atthe Goldwyn Studios. He said, "Ifany radio or TV guest appearancescome up that I might be able to do,please call me."

I said I would, and hung up. Atthe same time the phone touchedthe cradle of the receiver, the lightdawned. I dialed Buddy's numberback. Would he consider a regularseries on TV, considering the infancyof the medium? He suggested wetalk about it the next day at hisoffice.

At present, Lanza's family, hislovely wife, the former Betty Hicks(sister of an army pal), whom hemarried in 1945, and their. twodaughters, Colleen, 2, and Elissa,eight months, are preparing for theirrole in Mario's operatic career-atrip to Italy, where they will live forthe next six months, while .Lanzasings with La Scala, Milan-andafter that, he heads for the Met-"to make opera's future my future."

More important to this warm-hearted beauty, who has three broth-'rs of her own in Korea, is that theMore than a thousand letters she re-ceives from GI's every month reflectthe fact that she symbolizes hometo them and that through her they

Into her daily disc jockey sessions,heard by an estimated ninety mil-lion people around the world, Rebelspins the essence of home that is sovitally treasured by fighting men inKorea and those sitting out the so-called "police action" on such remotepowder kegs as China and Berlin.Her fervent hope is that she can con-tinue to do so "as long as there isan American fighting man over-seas."

Morale BuilderAs far as the production staff at

AFRS is concerned, she will. Theyare as pleased with Rebel's morale -building show as are the men on thereceiving end. When they signedRebel to her initial series, in Septem-ber, 1950, as a sequel to the earlier"GI Jill" programs, the AFRS staff,in the words of "Juke Box USA's"writer -producer, Rudi Burns, knewthat Rebel possessed that "indefin-able inner warmth" they were look-ing for.

The lovely miss, who hails fromChicago, is not only unusually come-ly, but has talents equal to herbeauty. She's been seen and heardin over thirty-two films; admired asa cover girl on dozens of magazines;celebrated on billboards and illus-trated in "Esquire" annals as thetypical American beauty. Her col-lection of beauty titles would giveroyalty an inferiority complex.

A scholarship in the Max ReinhardtWorkshop brought Rebel to Holly-wood from Chicago where, in schoolyears, her beauty had already be-gun to register. Classmates at Fore-man high school could look out thewindow at her likeness gracing aCoca-Cola billboard, and she was atop model in that city. Fashion -plate jobs made her seek a model -type name, since she didn't favor herreal one, Alaine Brandes. The Ran-dall portion of her name came froma chance encounter in a telephonedirectory.

Brains and BeautyRebel's brains match her looks-

she paints and writes in her sparetime. Three of her paintings are ina local exhibit and "The Lying Lion"and "Daffy Daffodil" are two chil-dren's books she penned.

All this could not be apparent toher GI fans, but her great sincerityis. And she has had some touchingexperiences which prove it. AFRSpipes her shows to all military basesand hospitals in and outside of thecountry and to all her listeners shehas become known by a title givenher by one of her earliest listeners-"Dear Voice" is the salutation most

often used in letters sent her.A group of eight or nine GI's will

"That sort of thing is what bringsthis war home to me," she explains.

I Defend Sillging Commerches!

At_ JUD CONLON (at right) is anIowa boy who went from piano

to accordion to vocalizing on his wayto musical arranging for top song menand doing singing commercials with his"Rhythmaires," (above left to right, fromtop to bottom) Loulie Jean Norman,Gloria Wood, Jud, Charlie Parlato, andMax Mac McLean.

T TAKES a man in the sing-ing commercial business likeJud Conlon, director of "TheRhythmaires," to justify theclang, clatter and bombastthat frequently accompany

musical plugs. Jud is truly thefather of many sponsor's melodiousmessages. He takes the jingles, forbeer, toothpaste, cigarettes, drinks,bread, or transportation, sets them tomusic and then labors over an ar-rangement that will be music to thesponsor's ears.

Why singing commercials, any -

One Man's Jangle IsAnother Man's Joy

way? dudJud put it very simply whenhe said, aThey pay off . . . singingthe jingle keeps money jangling inthe sponsor's pocket. It's the onlyreason you can get Crosby, GrouchoMarx, 'Life With Riley,' or any ofyour favorites on radio or TV. Wedon't have subsidized radio like theydo in Britain, and somebody has topay the bill . . . so the man behindthe man at the mike or camera cannot go unnoticed or unheard."

Businessman's MinstrelAs a minstrel for the American

businessman, Jud faces only one

problem when he notes the sharpsand flats for pitches . . . that is,"Will it sell?" Sometimes the busi-ness men admit they know littlsabout music and only say, "we warsit pretty" . . . "we want more girl!'voices" . . . or "we want it high atthe end." Singing commercials mayjar your ear drums or your mental.processes, but that's what pleases theman with the bankroll. A musicman, like Jud, who has long ago lostcount of his own musical arrange-ments for some of the hit tunes ofour time, believes in selling by sing-ing because, "it's more alive thanhearing a monotonous moaning of amale voice drooning out the glori-ous attributes of a certain drug storespecialty." But what about the peo-ple who find these tuneful rhymesirritating? "One man's jangle maybe another man's joy. If the listen-er remembers the jingle, he'll re-member the product . . . and maybehe'll go away humming the com-mercial."

Jud added the sponsor's peculiartwist to his musical arranging soonafter the war when he organized "TheRhythmaires." Before he becamepart of this vocal aggregation, hehad raised his bass voice in tunewith the well-known singers, "SixHits and a Miss." No, he doesn'thave a complete collection of all thesinging commercials he has been re-sponsible for, but hopes to put themore than 500 of them on platterssomeday. That would mean diggingup arrangements he has done forsuch airshows as "Life of Riley,"Groucho Marx, Phil Regan show, BingCrosby, "Our Miss Brooks," DennisDay, "The Blandings," and the KayKyser show.

ArrangementsJud said there was little difference

between arranging a jingle for radioor TV. For TV, musical accompani-ment is never used as they are al-most sure of visual help to sell theproduct. His toughest job was work-ing out the plug for "Ice Cycles"into a singing commercial. Everytime he would get "The Rhythmaires" going, he heard a soprano ortenor trying to say "ties" and itwould come out anything but that.Each set of lyrics must have special

WAS a toss-up whether wewere discussing "HollywoodTheater Time" or the meritsf the Carnegie Institute of

Technology, during our in-teresting interview with Bob

Finkel, alumnus of Carnegie and di-rector of KECA-TV's "HollywoodTheater Time." Bob holds a dramadegree from this outstanding univer-sity, which offers a fine arts curricu-lum, as well as its renowned engi-neering courses.

Television's role in the Kathy Fis-cus tragedy inspired Bob to enter thetelevision field. "I feel that my ex-periences in the various entertain-ment mediums, plus my academictraining have been of invaluable as-sistance in my directing 'HollywoodTheater Time,'" earnestly informedBob. "We have twelve hours to re-hearse and prepare a weekly half-hour telecast. Ours is the only localdramatic show viewed on kinescopeAugust 10, 1951

in New York, and we try not to letthe Easterners find any faults withour productions."

Genius at WorkBob is budget conscious and works

out the minutest details prior to airtime. His wife, Janie, and three-year -old daughter, Terry Lee, areobliging props. After rearranginghis living room, he sets the stageand the family fill in as actors ashe puts them through their paces.The salt and pepper shakers arecommandeered whenever additionalcast members are needed.

Bob also memorizes all the cuelines and action to save time. Oneglance at the script might mean theloss of several valuable seconds. Theabsence of a prompter in the wingsinsures memorized parts, as psycho-logical crutch theory is taboo here.

Back StageThat's all there is to the game, but

there's a lot more back of the tele-casting of such fun fare. Its producerclaims that "Movietown" has themost vocal viewing audience of anyprogram-a viewing audience whichsends in an average of 5,000 cha-rades a week, ninety-nine percent of

which are duplicates of others sub-mitted that week or a previous week.This similarity in the charades sub-mitted makes it increasingly hard tostump the experts, especially sinceeach title must have a visual inter-pretation. At the beginning, theseries was called, "An Invitation toMovietown, RSVP," then public usagemade it "Movietown, RVSP," andafter a flood of letters asking whatRVSP meant, it was renamed simply,"Movietown." During its early his-tory, all the video performances wereset in the actual home of a moviestar, but because of high productioncost, lack of suitably located homes,and the complexities involved whenmovie people's contracts were at

One of the experts, Carroll Carroll,laid an egg when he failed to guessthe title, "Baby Me," which hap-pened to be a song he wrote. DickLane was caught napping when hecouldn't make sense of the act whichspelled out "I Can Get It For YouWholesale," a movie which he hadjust finished.

In the producer's office there aremiles of files which record each cha-rade used, its date of entry, the nameand address of the sender, and anyduplicates received. Before any cha-rade is used its origin is traced foraccuracy. When varying quotationsof MacArthur's, "I Shall Return"statement came pouring in, a madscramble ensued to make sure it wasnot "I Will Return" or "I Am GoingTo Return."

When a toughie, "Amphitron 38"came up, the experts were baffled. . . the "Adams" and "Eves" frantic. . . but the viewers were enjoyingit to the hilt.

All parts were rearranged sothat the substitute actor was con-stantly facing the screen, from whichhe read his unrehearsed lines. Thetelecast went off without a hitch andthe audience was none the wiser.

In order to create an authentic set-ting, Bob had cobwebs sprayed onthe set of "The Spectre." The scriptcalled for objects to mysteriouslymove about. This was accomplishedby hands hidden from the camera'seye. However, viewers mistook thefine cobwebby sprays for strings pull-

Bob's weekly challenge of directinga different live dramatic show, vary-ing in pace, has been prefaced byhard work in other entertainmentmediums. As juvenile entertainer,Bobby Blue, he was billed as a tapdancer. Those were the days DickPowell emceed, and the late Joe Pen-ner headlined vaudeville acts. AfterCarnegie Tech, he directed at RhodeIsland's famous Providence Play-house. Giving vent to his frustratedacting desires, he frequently crossedthe footlights to show actors how toread their lines.
