OF PROGRAMS AND PEOPLE
You probably can count on see
ing Guy Madison become the next
big cowboy star. The sight of all
that loot being counted by Bill
"Hopalong Cassidy" Boyd, Gene
Autry, Roy Rogers and some
others has inspired what may
easily be the biggest entertain
ment deal in history, with Mr..
Madison as one Of the chief bene-
flciaries.
Western stars, as you hardly
need to be told, are big business.
Their income comes not only
from movie, television, radio and
rodeo appearances, but also from
"tie-ins" that range all the way
from comic books to six-guns and
spurs. The present deal is being
arranged by six manufacturers Of
these "tie-in'' products. banded
together in the belief, probably
sound, that they can develop their
own cowboy star and benefit,
without paying royalties, from his
popularity.
Mr.. Madison, a young movie
player, is to be starred in a fic-
tional characterization Of the
famed Wild Bill Hickock in the
projected shows. along with Andy
Devine, a veteran of western Aims.
The Plan-a five-year one-is to
get production under way imme-
diately of So half-hour films for
television yearly and 80 weeks of
daily 15-minute transcribed radio
shows. Motion pictures probably
will follow.
The television and radio shows
will be sponsored. The six manu-
facturers are not sponsoring
them, nor are they entering the
entertainment field beyond pro-
viding the financing and a build.
up toward that day when Junior
won't be able to get along with
