TV in Review By WILLIAM EWALD NEW YORK (UPI)—It doesn't really matter what the calendar says. Summer arrived officially Monday. I saw a good humor than and pantomime quiz on the same day. Pantomime quiz is, of course, De Bermuda shorts show of television. It is unmothballed as the hot weather months approach and is tucked away again when the first TV vice president lets loose the first sneeze of September. Monday, Pantomime Quiz, jockeyed for its 12th season by emcee Mike Stokey, returned on ABC-TV as a five-a-week daytime offering. Its format — based on charades or "the game" as it is called by the complicated people — has undergone a slight change. Now, customers from the audience play along with the usual celebrity contestants. It's a piquant idea — throwing pros like Howie Morris, Dick Van Dyke, Jeff Donnell and Cliff Norton in with Mrs. Emma Glutz of Brooklyn — but I'm not quite convinced that it'll work very well. For one thing, Monday's group of amateurs were not too skilled either as performers or guessers. For another thing, Pantomime Quiz was a provocative show because its celebrity - panelists unloosened a little. They were trapped in pressure situations and tended to unbutton their masks on occasion. It's always interesting to glimpse the face behind a carefully built celebrity mask. For a third thing, the mixture of pros and amateurs Monday tended to slow down the show. It had a stop and go quality. One of the principal attractions of ROYAL VISITOR — King Baudouin of Belgium and Pres. Eisehower chat in back seat of limousine following the young man's arrival at Washington International Airport. The king in the U.S. for a 20-day tour. Reid Nominated For Envoy Post WASHINGTON (UPI) — A 34-year-old former newspaper executive will tell the Senate Foreign Relations Committee today why should be approved for a sensitive diplomatic post. He is Ogden R. Reid, former president and editor of the New York Herald-Tribune. President Eisenhower has nominated him to be ambassador to Israel. But he faced stiff senatorial questioning on his qualifications for the job.

They were trapped in pressure situations and tended to unbutton their masks on occasion. It's always interesting to glimpse the face behind a carefully built celebrity mask. For a third thing, the mixture of pros and amateurs Monday tended to slow down the show. It had a stop and go quality. One of the principal attractions of Pantomime Quiz in past seasons has been its trantic pace — its half hour flipped by with the speed of a good fight. And lastly, I'm not sure I want to look at Mrs. Emma Glutz of Brooklyn anyway. My favorite panelist in the past on Pantomime Quiz always has been Dorothy Hart, a lovely morsel who used to swivel through her charade assignments on the show with the motion of a happy honeybee. Miss Hart is not a member of the current panel. Take away, Mrs. Glutz, Pantomime Quiz, and bring back Doothy Hart. And I'll forgive everything. Short Shots: CBS-TV's Desilu Playhouse got some solid performances Monday night from Lee Marvin, E. G. Marshall and Peggy McCay, but its play, "Man In Orbit" was an in-and-outer. It has some gripping moments, but its basic gimmick — the unauthorized launching of a man into space — was difficult to accept. And its closing sequence was an improbable cup of togetherness. The Channel Swim: CBS-TV's Ed Sullivan is trying to land Russia's Bolshoi Ballet for his 11th anniversary show June 21. ABC TV will add a nighttime version of Pantomime Quiz to its schedule starting June 8 in the slot now held by Voice of Firestone. CBS-TV's Arthur Godfrey has received 107,000 pieces of mail since his illness... Also in the mail department, spokesmen for the Jimmy Dean Show say they have received 54,000 pieces of mail during the past week protesting CBS-TV's decision to yank the program in July. Doris Day, afflicted with mononucleosis, has pulled out of Wednesday night's CBS-TV I've Got A Secret Show. Antimissile Missile Tests by Army Seen WASHINGTON (UPI) — A 34-year-old former newspaper executive will tell the Senate Foreign Relations Committee today why he should be approved for a sensitive diplomatic post. He is Ogden R. Reid, former president and editor of the New York Herald-Tribune. President Eisenhower has nominated him to be ambassador to Israel. But he faced stiff senatorial questioning on his qualifications for the job. He was regarded as the first "test case" of the committee's new policy of rigidly screening non-career diplomats. Other congressional news: Strauss: Sen. Clinton P. Anderson (D-N.M.) defended his role in the Lewis L. Strauss hearings against Republican charges of "usurpation." The partisan wangling brought new turmoil to the Senate Commerce Committee's heated sessions on the nomination of Strauss to be commerce secretary. Schools: Sen. Herrman E. Talmadge (D-Ga.) sail the South "will neither accept nor submit to the forceful implementation" of the Supreme Court's school desegregation decision. He testified before a Senate judiciary subcommittee in behalf of his proposed constitutional amendment aimed at halting desegregation attempts. Jobs: Republican resistance to Democratic spending proposals stiffened following issuance of a government report showing a sharp drop in unemployment in April. Democrats, however, contended the seasonal improvement did not end the jobless problem in areas of chronic distress. In major congressional developments late Monday: Appropriations: The House ignored the recommendation of its appropriations committee and voted to add $9,559,000 to President Eisenhower's budget requests for various veterans programs. It endorsed the boost in passing by voice vote a $6,457,637,000 money bill to run the Veterans Administration and several other independent government agencies in the fiscal year beginning July 1, a cut of $126,530,200 below the President's budget estimates. Lunik: Three congressmen suggested that an American writer who thinks the Soviet "Lunik" was a hoax may himself have been "snowed" by Russian rocketeer who withheld information from him. Lloyd Mallan, who labeled as phony Russia's claims of having sent a rocket into orbit around the sun Jan. 3, appeared before the House Space Committee. Mallan testified he concluded "Lunik" existed only in the imag- Antimissile Missile Tests by Army Seen SAN DIEGO (UP1)—The Army is planning tests of antimissile missiles in the Central Pacific, the San Diego Union reports. Military editor Rembert James wrote Sunday that Nike·Zeus weapons would try to blast Jupiter rockets in the tests. He reported that construction facilities for the tests would be built starting July 1 on Kwajalein Island in the Marshall group. James reported the Army would attempt to shoot the Jupiters down with the Nike-Zeus rockets at an altitude of about 100 miles. Men Old at 50 or 60! Recharge Body’s Batteries — Feel Younger Fast!

Firms Urge Step Up In Polio Immunization NEW YORK (UP1) — America’s health insurance companies have joined the drive to promote preventive polio vaccinations, stepping up educational and community service programs. The Health Insurance Association of America acted after a report from the U.S. Public Health Service showed that polio increased in frequency in 1958 for the first time since the introduction of salk vaccine in 1955. The total number of cases was slashed from 29,000 in 1955 to just under 6,000 in 1958, but the reversal of the direction last year has indicated that public apathy threatens the progress already made.

Appointments Accepted Owner P.Hospect 6-2300 Carl Peters Jobless Drop Stiffens GOP Fight for Thrift WASHINGTON (UPI) — Last month’s sharp drop in unemployment stiffened Republican resistance today to Democratic spending proposals and Senate Majority Leader Lyndon B. Johnson’s jobless study plan. Senate GOP Leader Everett M. Dirksen cited the government report issued Monday showing that unemployment fell by 735,000 in April to 3,627,000, the lowest point since December, 1957. Dirksen said the decline “obviously means diminished interest in setting up an unemployment study commission” for long or short term use. He said it “shows confidence in the country’s business structure.” But Assistant Senate Democratic Leader Mike Mansfield said “the need is still there” for the Johnson study idea, except that it should now be on a “continuing, long-term basis.” Johnson’s proposal, now bogged down in the House, calls for a report on unemployment in 60 days. Both Democrats and Republicans applauded the falloff in unemployment. Labor Secretary James P. Mitchell, in a Miami speech, hailed the report as “very good news” but said there still remain “valleys” of unemployment. The Democrats contended the seasonal improvement did not end the jobless problem in areas of the state will not have the of eminent domain to co-water rights of the North to fulfill contacts to deliver to the South,” he added. “especially important in times short shortage such as we may this year.” A final northern demand indicated, would be to provide no project such as the FRP be deemed completed under tributary streams were fully. Regan added he thought North position would be eased by at least 23 senators, more enough to block action on theFRP’s compromise bill. Sen. John A. Murdy (Ana), a southern spokeswoman in past sessions but this time only for himself, dictated the North’s amendments would be unacceptable. He said a southern committee agreed Monday Brown’s proposal was “out of imum position.” “We’ve made concessions these years, and this is our mate concession,” he said; more changes would make unacceptable. Both sides will hold closeings within the next 48 hours firm up their position and votes. The real test is scheduled day night when the Senate Committee holds a second Johnson's proposal, now bogged down in the House, calls for a report on unemployment in 60 days. Both Democrats and Republicans applauded the falloff in unemployment. Labor Secretary James P. Mitchell, in a Miami speech, hailed the report as "very good news" but said there still remain "valleys" of unemployment. The Democrats contended the seasonal improvement did not end the jobless problem in areas of chronic distress. Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey (D-Minn.) called this "temporary improvement" which should not hinder proposals like his for creation of a youth conservation corps. Mansfield told a reporter Congress "should not operate on a spur-of-the-moment basis but make long-term plans to meet unemployment that comes with an increasing population and automation." He stressed that more than a million new workers will enter the picture next month when high schools and colleges dump graduates into the labor market. Regan is chairman of a five-man committee of northern senators drafting major changes to the governor's compromise bill. The governor also proposed that 20 million dollars of the bond issue be set aside for development of local projects, mostly in the North. Not enough, said Regan. The third major proposal by the administration was to guarantee water contracts made by the state and public agencies to export northern water would be good for the life of the bonds or at least 50 years. Regan said his group would demand more than that. "The North will want assurances that such contracts do not abrogate the county of origin law and watershed protection act," he said. "We want a provision that all contracts will recognize the existence of all Northern California water rights."

"This is especially important in time of water shortage such as we may have this year." A final northern demand, Regan indicated, would be to provide that project such as the FRP would be deemed completed until allributary streams were developed fully. Regan added he thought the north position would be endorsed at least 23 senators, more than enough to block action on the governor's compromise bill. Sen. John A. Murdy (R-Santa Ana), a southern spokesman on water in past sessions but speaking this time only for himself, predicted the North's amendments would be unacceptable to his southern colleagues. He said a southern steering committee agreed Monday that town's proposal was "our minimum position." "We've made concessions all these years, and this is our ultimate concession," he said. "Any more changes would make the bill acceptable." Both sides will hold closed meetings within the next 48 hours to mum up their position and count them.

Unifying Armed Forces Via Buttonholes Slated WASHINGTON (UPI) — Defense planners are toying with a new scheme for unifying the armed forces: standardized buttonholes. This move was disclosed today in testimony made public by a House appropriations subcommittee. The project isn't sewed up yet. But officials of the agency which buys military uniforms told the subcommittee that buttonholes may be one of the next items they will standardize. Presumably they feel the armed SMILEAGE B. F.

Most car manufacturers recommend longer change intervals for consistent highway driving. But they all agree, for short-trip driving you need more frequent oil changes.
