Another Of the Chicago contri-
buttons to television entertain
ment becomes part Of the local
scheme Of things video is starting
tomorrow. This will be 'Kukla,
Fran and Ollie" q highly-touted
children's program. which will
occupy q nightly half hour of
WNBW's schedule at Z o'clock,
Monday through Friday.
'Kukla, Fran and Ollie" has
been going in the Middle West
since October, 1947. and has be-
come one of the most popular
things on television's segmels of
the air out there. It seems destined
for equal popularity here. Only a
week ago q young New Yorker
who has no connection with video
or radio disengaged himself from
O highly attractive blonde at a
party to tell us how much we'd
like "Kukla, Fran and Ollie
whenever 1t was made available
here.
The Chicago entertainment is
O puppet show. or at least two
thirds Of one. Kukla Is O bald,
bulb-nosed. philosophical puppet
and Ollie Is q sad-eyed, one
toothed. well hammered puppet
dragon. Fran Is Fran Allison, a
well-known radio singer and ac-
treSs.
"Kukla, Fran and Ollie" appar-
emily is cast in q pattern that al
ready Is familiar to Eastern tele-
viewers. One of the interesting
facets Of the video form is the
development Of children's fan
tastes that turn out to have avid
adult audiences. The two best
known Of these are Lucky Pup"
(WOIC-Daily, $3.50 p.m) and
'Howdy-Doody" (WNBW- Daily,
$50 pm).
Lucky Pup" probably plays to
q larger proportion Of adults, who
no longer sneak furtive peeks at
the kiddies' entertainment, but
watch it openly and admit they
like it fine. It seems to operate
definitely at two levels. 1t un-
doubtedly is much more real to
the young than it is to their par
ents, who follow it for its literate
and inventive script and the Won
derful wild fancies of its fantasy.
''Howdy Doody" Is aimed more
directly at the child audience. 1t
owes q large part Of its appeal to
the fact that Bob Smith does not
play down to this audience. chill
dren resent patronizing more
than any other insult to their in
telligence. Mr.. Smiths manner
with the young continually keeps
parents from feeling that they
have brought a monster into the
house in this big box with the
glowing eye.
Howdy's admirers, incidentally,
include such people as Arturo
Toscanini. Fred Allen and Milton
Berle. DR.. Toscanini turned up
late one day for q symphony re-
hearsal and explained that he'd
become engrossed in "Howdy
Doody" and couldn't tear himself
away. (Our informant doesn't add
what the conductor might have
said If a first violin had turned up
late with this excuse.)
Whether or not 1t is an indica-
ton that we're all children and
refuse to admit it, the Punch and
Judy show in its variations seems
destined to continue forever as a
part of our entertainment scheme.

The addition of 'Kukla. Fran
and Ollie" incidentally, calls for
some revamping of the WNBW
schedule, starting tomorrow.

Family Separation
Only Woy Out in
Perpetual Strife

DEAR MISS DIX: am In my
early 20s. Have been at work for
four years. Pay board at home
and am always buying something
for the house and for every mem
ber of the family. yet no matter
how tired I am. when ! come
home my mother expects me TO
help with the housework. She slsC
expects me TO stay at home and
take care Of a younger sister who
has been something OF an invalid
and who is spoiled 10 death.
Nothing is ever expected OF her.
though she is amply able to do
anything she wants TO do. / often
have to break my dates TO stay
at home with this sister because
mother wants to 60 out I love my
parents. That is why have put
up with being sacrificed to my
sister all my life. but can you
say q word to help me?
PUZZLED DAUGHTER.
Answer: l certainly can, but !
doubt whether you will have the
courage to try it. The only remedy
for the situation is for you TO
leave home for while. Get a job
in another city if you possibly
can. You and your mother and
your sister have got on one an
others nerves and you will end
up hating one another unless you
have the good sense to part.
Probably there is no other one

The story of an English doctors
dream Of one day seeing New

ward realizing this dream was
dramatically told to Washington

which has headquarters in New
York.
Its only been within the last
couple of years that the spotlight
of civilization has been turned on
Newfoundland" Miss Gushing de-
clared. She recalled that DR.. Gren-
fell, with whom she had worked
for eight years. had long ago ex-
pressed the conviction that New
foundland would some day be the
Gibraltar of North America.
When DR.. Grenfell established
his mission for medical and So
cial service work in 1892. he found
the Newfoundlanders without
medical care Of any kind. in poor
health from malnutrition and for
the most part illiterate. Miss
Gushing declared.
