TV in Review By FRED DANZIG United Press International NEW YORK (UPI)—The George Burns show shuffled off-stage after an uninspired run on NBC-TV Tuesday night in order to make room for the uninspired, displaced Western series, The Californians. Before George's cigar smoke fades into the frontier gunsmoke, I'd like to let him know that I, for one, will miss his grin, his unsurpassed singing voice, his calm assurance in the face of be-wilderment, his monologues and, of course, his cigar. Why did his series fail? George's noble experiment in a stage life without mother, Gracie Allen, failed to catch on because he attempted the impossible on TV. A situation comedy needs the secret ingredient — the situation catalyst, or setter-upper. In this case, I mean Gracie. Without her, George was like . . . well, like George Burns without a cigar. Garry Moore was "Oscarcized" during his CBS-TV hour Tuesday night. Like Jerry Lewis at the Academy Awards flasco, Garry was stuck with time on his hands, or as they say in show biz, egg on his face. Garry's surplus was a mere two minutes and he made the most of it by ad-libbing some setting-up exercises for fingers and an energetic rubber-leg dance. The air of honesty he gave these efforts helped the show get off with good grace. Garry's show now can be counted on to come up with an opening number that is exciting, imaginative, elaborate and lovingly executed. Tuesday night's circus number no ex- The Channel Swim: The Voice of Firestone, which begin broadcasting on Dec. 3, 1928, will be stilled after its Monday, June 1, telecast over ABC-TV. An announcement by the sponsor said the withdrawal of the musical series is the result of failure by the three networks to offer a prime evening weekday slot for next season. Jack Benny, Mike Nichols and Elaine May will join Bob Hope and Vice President Richard Nixon as Emmy awards presenters during the 90-minute NBC-TV show on Wednesday, May 6. Naked City, up for an Emmy as the best dramatic series of the season, gets dropped by ABC-TV in the fall. A new private eye series, Philip Mariowe, starring Philip Carey, replaces it on Sept. 29. French comic Fernandel visits the Perry Como Show on Saturday, April 25. CBS Radio's Saturday broadcasts of the Metropolitan Opera Productions have been renewed for next season.

Leases LOS ANGELES — Sunset International Petroleum Corp. has acquired the Shell Oil Co. interests in the Santa Ana and Fresno Land Co. and Properties, Inc., leases in the Raisin City, Calif., Field, Morton A. Sterling, Sunset International president, announced today. The properties, including 110 acres and 18 oil wells, are adjacent to existing Sunset International leases in Raisin City which are presently producing more than 1,000 gross barrels per day. The newly acquired properties produce approximately 90 gross and 70 net barrels per day. Sterling said his company plans to rework 11 of the wells—which are presently idle. Assemblyman Sumner Lauded on Tax Stand Assemblyman Bruce Sumner was commended today by Coalson Morris, Orange County Republican Chairman, for his fight this week in Sacramento to prevent the Democrat dominated Legislature from imposing new taxes on cigarettes and increased taxes on personal incomes. "Sumner is to be commended for accurately reflecting the concern of the people of Orange County for a balanced budget without higher taxes, particularly consumer taxes such as those proposed by the Governor for cigarettes." Morris declared. "And his stand against higher rates for income taxes, which are aimed primarily at the middle class wage earner, will be especially gratifying to thousands of our citizens who are moving into the county daily," he added. "As Sumner clearly pointed out on the floor of the Assembly," the Anaheim civic leader went on, "the governor's demands that the Legislature first raise more taxes before considering the amount of money to be expended through the state budget is most inconsistent with any businesslike approach to government." Although nine conservative Democrats voted to oppose the cigarette tax, Orange County's Democratic Assemblyman Richard Hanna joined the Governor's majority to approve the bill 44 to 45. Hanna also voted to increase income taxes. After-Easter Clearance Special Group of After-Easter Clearance Special Group of I.

Why?" "The stock has gone down 40 per cent since I bought it. What are you doing about it?" "Sir, just what do you do that's worth $150,000 a year to us?" "What is the company's policy about training young men to replace the older men now running it?" In the next few weeks, the presidents of hundreds of American corporations — including world-famous giants—will be asked questions as embarrassing as these in open meetings attended by thousands of intently listening investors and covered by the press. And they'll have to come up with coherent answers, or risk equally embarrassing headlines the next day in financial pages the nation over. For the traditional "corporation annual meeting" season is now under way. And never are so many stockholders taking time off to attend the meetings of companies in which they own shares as during this April. Today the season reaches a spectacular peak with the yearly meeting of American Telephone & Telegraph Co. in the Bronx, New York. Telephone Notices Telephone received notices from 25,000 of its stockholders that they planned to attend. It has prepared seats for 13,000 against a previous top of 2,500. This undoubtedly will smash all records ever for a stockholder's meeting, for Telephone's ranging from box lunches to champagne suppers. In some cases they'll simply applaud and go home, but in most they'll be asking questions such as I quoted above (picked at random by "Business Week" from questions actually asked during meetings in 1957). And, as Business Week adds, "Most management have found it's dangerous to insult, cut off or give a sarcastic answer to any question." Zooming Attendance Lots of developments explain the zooming attendance at these meetings. One, of course, is the spread in stock ownership to an unprecedented total of many millions of middle-class citizens. Another is the fact that in recent years leading stock exchanges have been promoting the idea that a stockholder is an owner of the corporation and he should take an active interest in his company’s activities. A third is that corporations themselves have been going in for lavish meetings on the basis that attracting a large attendance is good public relations. And while a sizable percentage of executives detest the "open" annual meeting as a waste of time, money and talent, the trend is on and nothing is likely to reverse it. One day a year, the holder of even one share in a corporation has the right to assert himself in person as an owner. One day a year, the head of even the biggest company must respond. And, when in these weeks the questions will be truly embarrassing, the odds will be the corporation managements invited them by their own actions last year. Journalism Awarded Planned Tomorrow Highest honors for Orange County prep journalists will be awarded Thursday at the sixth annual Santa Ana College Journalism Workshops. More than 100 certificates, trophies, plaques, scholarships and other honors will be distributed at the Awards Assembly in Phillips Hall at 4:30 p.m. Workshops, panels, exhibits and talks by professionals will round out the program for about 300 delegates. The college will honor four professional journalists. The late Lotus Loudon, founder-publisher of the Anaheim Bulletin from 1823 until his death in 1951, and Mrs. Marah Adams, Santa Ana reporter and a newswoman more than 50 years, will be added to the SC Orange County Journalism Roll of Honor. Alumni achievement awards will go to W. C. (Bill) Kamrath, '41, coordinator of publications at El Camino College and Mrs. Carmela Martin, '53, assistant managing editor of the Anaheim Bulletin.

Telephone Notices Telephone received notices from 25,000 of its stockholders that they planned to attend. It has prepared seats for 13,000 against a previous top of 2,500. This undoubtedly will smash all records ever for a stockholder's meeting, for Telephone's owners are coming to celebrate formal ratification of AT&T's decision to split the stock, give stockholders three shares for each old share owned and raise the annual cash dividend from $9 on each old share to the equivalent of $9.90. Also today, 36 other corporations are holding annual meetings. On Apr. 21, there will be 35 sessions; on Apr. 22, another 28; the next day, an additional 27. And on Apr. 28 alone, 60 companies with shares listed on the New York Stock Exchange will be holding their annual affairs. As recently as a decade ago, only a minor total of stockholders even thought of attending the annual meetings of their corporations, and most company management went out of their way to discourage attendance by holding the meetings in remote, uncomfortable places, by giving them a minimum of publicity, by making them dull, routine. Now, though, the trend is entirely in the opposite direction. Tens of thousands of little investors will be at the meetings in these weeks. In many cases they'll be entertained with product exhibits, plant tours, movies, etc. They'll be given souvenirs and refreshments annually meeting as a waste of time, money and talent, the trend is on and nothing is likely to reverse it.

It's more fun than standing up in a roller coaster. And it sure gives you a gripping idea of what stereophonic sound is like. We hand you whopping discounts on stereo equipment. For instance, we have the famous Hoffman sets starting for less than $200, which is a third below list price. We also cut prices on Audio-Fidelity stereo records.

There is a certain brand of soap that everybody is selling this week on special at 5 bars for 35c. Here at Murray Manor we sell it at 5 bars for 29c. The trouble is, the manufacturer won't allow us to mention his brand name. Therefore we will give you a hint. It is not Lux. It is not Camay, Not Palmolive, or Ivory, or Swan, or Sweetheart, or Dove, or Dial. Nobody sells you soap as cheap as we do.
