more hair than the star of 'The
King and l." but this is about all
that can be said. AS a link be-
tween television show and au-
dience at home. Mr.. Brynner can
outdistance Mr.. Sullivan six fur
longs in a seven furlong race.
X X X r
Mr.. Brynner, by concentrating
his attention in the proper direc-
ton, turned "Toast of the Town
into a television show for living
room consumption. 1t turned us
at home from eavesdroppers into
viewers.
It was during this show that
the idea popped up. which Mr.
Sullivan is free to use any time
he desires. In fact, he is urged
to use it. It's very simple.
Since Mr.. Sullivan seems deter
mined to get up in front of that
audience every Sunday night and
since it's his show, let him go
ahead and do it. Let him have his
fun. But stop televising him while
he's doing it.
Instead, install some personable
young man or woman, who knows
about the intimacy of television,
before a camera while Mr.. Sulli-
van is establishing rapport with
the theater audience. This master
or mistress of ceremonies can in
troduce the acts to us at home and
at the same time keep our living
rooms free of the sight OF Sullivan
playing to the theater, which is
pretty dull stuff in the living room.
Ought to keep everybody happy
and make "Toast of the Town" a
show we can all bear to watch.
IN REVIEW-It is traditional
in the theater that audiences
lower their standards and become
a great deal less critical when
visiting straw-hat playhouses. The
assumption that this applies to
summer television audiences, too,
may be dangerous but some peo-
pie seem to be making it. It was
clearly in evidence this week when
Studio One" became Studio One
Summer Theater" (WTOP-TV-
10 PM.
One show does not make sum-
mer series, to be sure, but There
Was a Crooked Man" was hardly
an auspicious beginning for this
one. 1t was a lightweight mystery
comedy teleplay, played with little
conviction and little success at
comedy. Betty Furness, of course,
is still up to her old standard and
could sell a jet engine to a statue.
Unless some improvement is
made in the other portions of
Summer Theater," however, it's
going to be rough sitting through
the pauses between Furness ap-
pearanceS.

There Is a Simple Solution
For the Sullivan Problem
By Horry Macarthur

A golden idea has just popped
up here in the TV department.
like a mushroom or something. 1t
could be the salvation of Toast
of the Town." the cure for the Ed
Sullivan curse.
There are those, it must be ad-
mitted, who think there is nothing
wrong with Toast of the Town"
or with Ed Sullivan's participation
in it. 1t is a fine show, they say.
with a lot of talented people every
week. Mr.. Sullivan is a nice, we'll
hammered man and you're churl
to complain about him. He at
least does not tell bawdy jokes
and operate under a forced head
of steam like some masters OF
ceremonies.
This is all true. '"Toast Of the
Town is a good show. 1t is slickly
produced. directed at lively pace
and performed almost invariably
by people of considerable talent.
And there still are people who
can't bear to watch it because OF
its head man.
Contrary to the belief expressed
occasionally by readers, there is
nothing personal in this dim view
of Mr.. Sullivan as a master of
ceremonies. In person he is a
most agreeable citizen. He may
feel that he is one of the days
showmanship geniuses. to be sure.
You can forgive him, however,
when you examine some of the
things perpetrated by other tele-
vision showmen. There's no COM
plant at all about Sullivan the
man. ~4
~ 4 4
The complaint is that he seems
obsessed with the notion that he
is a television performer while he
continues to be as frightened Of
television cameras as any one is.
BY his own admission, he freezes"
when he looks at a TV camera.
There are those. of course, who
think he appears frozen to begin
with and wonder how you could
tell the difference.
Anyhow. Mr.. Sullivan is not
comfortable in the presence OF
the camera. Consequently, he
ignores them and directs his at
tention squarely to the theater
audience. When the show is all
over he eagerly asks those present,
"D'ja enjoy yourselves?"
It is respectfully submitted
herewith that not more than four
people in the television audience
of millions care a hoot whether
or not that theater audience had
a good time.
The difference Sullivan makes
