Has TeleviSi0n Grown Up?

You still hear it occasionally said that in pro-
gramming Television is "in its intancy." Signifi-
cantly, such comments are almost invariably made
by people who do not own televiSion receivers.
They form their opinions the basis OF the TV
programs they see in the homes of neighbors who
do not necessarily share their interests.
Actually, todays television logs offer variety of
programs to please virtually every taste. Produc-
tion techniques have advanced with almost un-
believabe rapidity. AS recently as year ago,
production fine Miss Helen Hayes recent
performance of "Victoria Regina" would have
been considered impossible. In dramatics, tele-
vision has definitely achieved stature compar-
able to that Of the theater.
1t is perhaps true that in the field Of good music
television is reaching its maturity more slowly
However, within the next week or so, Campbels
hopes to announce a series of new good music
programs that will, we sincerely believe, prove
an important milestone in televsion's cultural
growth at least in the Washington
Details still remain to be ironed out, but we are
progressing rapidly with these Watch for our
announcement soon.
Meanwhile, If you have delayed ownership Of a
televison receiver in the mistaken belief that
nothing worth seeing and hearing is being tele-
vised you will do yourself favor by reconsdering
your position. Believe me, television has reached

civil service official doubts If
there will be one comparable
to the overcrowded mid-'40S.
He doesn't believe the number
of G-girls will reach the
World War II figure unless
there Is all-out war that calls
veterans back into service or
an unforeseen expansion of
Government agencies. There
is logic In his reasoning.
Remember" he said, "a
high percentage of Govern
ment workers are veterans
and, in addition, it won't be
long until many of them will
be above draft age. A fellow
who was in his early 2Os at
the time of Pearl Harbor al
ready is In his early 3Os and
he isn't getting any younger.
That might be a big factor
in determining the city's G.
girl population"
Evening star., 1951-05-06

The Federal Recreation
Committee keeps in close
touch with the situation and
one official said an incoming
Government worker can set
up almost any living standard
she wants. Rents, 1t was
pointed out, are not largely
different than in the '40S.
For those who prefer to live
alone, rooms can be found for
almost any wage level. Larger
rooms are available for those
who prefer to share their
quarters and eat out. Apart
ments can be found for groups
who prorate the costs and
housework. Others-perhaps
in higher wage brackets-can
lease homes and share the
cost of rent. food, utilities and
domestic help.
Thus far. there apparently
