OBLONG VIEWS
FROM AN EGG-SHAPED HEAD
BY WALDO HUNTER
TELEVISION. IF IT has done nothing else, has laid bare to a
disillusioned public the nasty facts of life as related to that great
American circus called the National Presidential Nominating Convention. We have seen two of them now, through the boring, unswerving and remorselessly candid eye of the TV camera. It has
long been said that "the camera
does not lie." Would that we
could say the same for the politician!
We little people who have so long been in the dark as to what
goes on at the national convention now can see that the thing
is largely a great farce staged in an amphitheatre while, safely out
of sight, the deadly throat-cutting, conniving, vote-swapping
and soul-selling goes on behind sinister hotel room doors where
unholy political alliances are sealed at the drop of a whisky glass.
BUT WHILE these "deals" are

WITH THE BADGE I received no instructions. It was merely a means of admission to the con
vention hall. I attended one session of the convention, but had no earthly idea of what was going on,
but in this situation I felt I was not alone. No one said much to me, and I could find no seat. It would have been extremely em
barrassing, to put it mildly, had my delegate not appeared and they would have called upon me to vote in his stead. But appar
ently he was there to vote, and my services were never demanded.
There was a lot of beer float.

It was your correspondent's extreme good fortune to wangle an alternate's badge to the Democratic national convention in Chicago in 1940. I just told the boss (a good Demo) that I wanted to attend the convention, and he procured for me a handsome bronze badge complete with fancy ribbons.

TV-RADIOLOGIC
'December Bride' Proves Popular Despite Pro-Mother-in-Law Slant By TOM E. DANSON
HOLLYWOOD. — Personally, I don't see a thing wrong with others-in-law. All of them I've met in the past have been real swell. It always comes as a fresh surprise to me when I hear the raucous laughter when the word itself is mentioned on night lab acts, or, on radio and television programs. Therefore, I have accepted Parke Levy's new minichild, "December Bride" as a natural occurrence. A salute to others-in-law it wends its merway through the 30 minutes vacant on CBS by Jack Benoist departure for the summer. It continues to gain new popularity with each airing. Movie star Spring Byington plays Lily Kinkin, the focal character of the series and a mother-in-law. Says in-law Matt (Hal March): 'Look at Lily. I can't tell you my fond of her I've gotten. She's sweet, charming, delightful and kindly...'
responds his friend, Pete: 'At just shows how sneaky she is. She hasn't even got the decency to act like a mother-in-law.' His Pete, of course, who amazes but I ceased to be amazed at the Levy. His name has been being to me ever since I start listening to the radio. That back in the days when I had myself silly at the Baron Chausen's "Vas you dere, lie?" His first job in radio for Jack Pearl, followed up the years by gag writings before the announcement was made. Fact is, I should have known a couple of summers ago when I happened to run into him on Vine st.
"What's new," I asked, expecting all kinds of data on audience reaction, critics, opinions, or at least a tip on who was running at Hollywood Park.
"My mother-in-law has come to visit us," he said.
"Nice," I said. "What's new?"
"You don't get it," he went on. 'I never knew her very well before. Now she's a widow and has come from Philadelphia to stay quite a while. She's only been here a few weeks and I can't tell you how fond of her I've gotten. She's a sweet, charming, delightful, and friendly...'
I left there. A nice mother-in-law is no news to me!

Big stickmen for Bethel were Gus Stark, also the winning pitcher who collected three hits in four trips; George Fowler, Dennis Denny, Lee Mims and Harve Nelson, each with two hits apiece.
The losing Nazarenes went out in front in the first inning with three runs, but were handcuffed the rest of the way. A rally was hit hurling of Jack Pickering last night.
This earned the victor the right to meet the defending champions, Anaheim Merchants, in the final best two out of three series to decide the playoff championship.
Hunts broke into the scoring column in the second inning when Wally Dietrich lifted a towering fly ball triple to deep left field and scored on an infield out. Gene Piantoni singed, with one away in the third, and scored ahead of Chris DeSota as Chris doubled to right and game on in an error.
Art Altheide, the losing hurler, garnered the first hit off Pickering in the sixth inning to break up a thus far pitched perfect game. In the top of the seventh Del Martin was safe on an error, Den Hein struck out, then Dale Wolin doubled, to put them on second and third. But Marvin Fluegge "ko"ed and Paul Altheide grounded to the shortstop to end the ball game.
Pickering struck out 10 of the 24 men he faced.

The Rainbows' next splurge came in the fourth inning with a walk, a single and a fielder's choice than Richard Espanosa stepped to the plate and made a grand slam homerun to notch up four more runs.

The hottest team in the Pacific Coast league right now is the Hollywood Stars.
Manager Fred Haney's club has won 13 of its last 14 games, has just won its third straight from Sacramento, and the week before took seven out of eight from San Diego.
The Stars downed the Sacs last night, 5 to 3, but the game was played under protest from the second inning on. With Gene Handley on second, Dick Cole on first and Pitcher Pinky Woods at bat, Sacramento pitcher Jack Pickart threw a ball that struck the ground, bounded into catcher Vinnie Smith's glove and then rebounded against Woods' bat. Handley and Cole advanced. Manager Joe Gordon of the Sacs protested, claiming interference, and held that the runners could not advance. The umpires ruled against him and on the next pitch Woods belted the ball out of the park for a homer and three runs. That won the game. League President Clarence Roulston.
Mathias shot put was by far the best made by any of the 28 contestants. It gave him 914 points for this event and a total of 2,639. Campbell had 2500 points for three events and Simmons 2229.
Campbell, who led after the two morning events with 1725 points to 1725 for Mathias, got off the second-best shot-put, 45 feet 6.84 inches. Simmons had the third best, 43 feet 2.91 inches, which lifted him from seventh place to third.
Following the three Americans in the scoring were Vladimir Volkov of Russia, 2220 points; Ignace Heinrich of France, runner-up to Mathias in the 1948 decathlon, 2211; Sepp Hipp, Germany, 2204; Kjell Tannander, Sweden, 2192 and Sergel Kuznetsov, Russia, 2192.
Two more events, the high jump and 400-meter run, were to be contested today and the remaining five tomorrow.

Anaheim Juniors Bow to Fullerton
After apparently having victory within their grasp, the Anaheim Juniors folded and Fullerton scored six times in the sixth inning to win a county league game 7-2 yesterday on the winner's diamond.
Anaheim spotted the home team tally in the second frame and tied the score in the sixth Frank Doretti's double, followed by Roy Weaver's single.
The locals went ahead by one the next stanza as Bill French immed a pinch single to left with Rudy Peralta on third. This margin didn't stand long Fullerton sewed of the contest in their half of the sixth with carrage of runs.
