Harris along as a guest star on
his seasonal opener and there is
not much to say about him. He
has made the role he plays widely
familiar on radio and in the
movies and he played, it with
equal gusto on television.
\ \
Another noteworthy event of
the week end was the return OF
NBC-TV's Comedy Hour" on
Sunday night, launched anew
with great uproar by Dean Martin
and Jerry Lewis. It was an event
mitigated by the welcome if brief
appearance of Rosemary Clooney.
Miss Clooney is a doll who seems
to combine the best qualities of
Doris Day and Betty Hutton and
her singing of Half as Much"
and "Botch-a-Me" was a most
enjoyable interlude.
Before and after she appeared,
however, there was a great deal
of Martin and Lewis, a pair who
seem bent upon setting up new
definition of humor. They are
often referred to as the hottest
thing in show business today. ALI
through their Comedy Hour"
contortions were moments when
the studio audience could be
heard in wild laughter. The TV
editors 10-year-old daughter
seemed to relish their antics.
People who appeared fairly nor
NAL have been overheard saying
"Didja see Martin and Lewis
last night, ha-ha-h -ha-ha?"
This all seems to indicate that
some people find Martin and
Lewis funny. This is their priv
ilege, of course. It's a free coun-
try. The trouble is that Mar
tin and Lewis never do any
thing funny, or at least they
weren't caught in the act Sunday
might. This makes them, If you
must know, a most disconcerting
spectacle in the eyes of a man
who has found something to
laugh at in many things, from
one of Lou Costello's routines in
lburlesque to a witty speech by
Gov. Stevenson. It makes a man
feel as if he were prey to that
old gag wherein, by prearrange-
ment, somebody tells a COM
Ipletely pointless story and every
body but the bewildered victim
laughs uproariously on cue.
It~might be that a coed ad-
mirer of the two gave the Tv
editor the explanation when
pressed to tell just one funny
thing Martin and Lewis did on
Sunday night.
You're of another generation >
she said airily. "This is the vii
fof the new generation.
If this is wit. this is a younger
generation which really demands
some worrying about.

1t would have been much sim
Ipler to take the towards way out
Saturday night. This is obvious
only in retrospect, however-now,
when it is too late. At the time,
watching Jimmy Durante on his
return to NBC-TV's "All-Star Re
vue" seemed imperative. It SEEM
ed. to an old Durante man at any
rate. to take precedence over the
new Jackie Gleason Show" on
CBS-TV at the same hour.
Well, watching Durante was re-
warding, in part at least. He has
in his field something of the same
quality Dinah Shore has in hers.
When Dinah sings. you like her
as well as the singing. When Du-
rante comes into view, you like
Durante. before he makes the first
attempt to make you laugh.
None of our buffoons, old or
new. has this same quality in the
degree Durante has it. You have
a genuine affection for him and
this gives him quite head start
as a comedian. If some of his ma
terial seemed below par Saturday,
this still was the beloved Durante
OF old. strewing chaos in all direc-
tions.
1t was good to have him back
and 1t is good to know that he will
be around once every four weeks
during the TV season.
= r +
The unfortunate aspect of
choosing Durante over Gleason is
that it entails a report on Mar
garet Truman's latest guest ap-
pearance ON television. Durante
who likes to pit his rowdyism
against the aplomb of dignified
women (Helen Traubel, Ethel
Barrymore. etc. chose to have
Miss Truman back for a repeat
performance on his opening show
Of the season.
NOW Miss Truman is attractive
has a warm and pleasant smile
obviously is nice girl. She un-
doubtedly is young woman OF
intelligence and charm and q
treasure to her father.
She has an unfortunate faculty
however, for making any TV show
on which she appears look like
an audience-participation pro-
gram. She seems to be nice girl
from Independence. Mo-, who now
isn't sure it was a good idea tc
get up on that stage but who is
determined to see this thing
through if it kills her.

TINE management of each life insurance CONS
l. pany has the primary responsibility of full
filing all obligations to its policyhoders. Public
supervision, in turn, supplements the response
bility of management.
Recognition by the states of the public interest
in life insurance goes back more than 100 years.
The first general insurance law was adopted in
lS4o. Six years later the first state insurance
department was established to supervise the
operation of the companies.
Today, each company has to meet the require
naents Of the laws and be licensed in every state
in which it is admitted to do business. These
laws vary from state to state.
These laws cover such things as the minimum
standards for reserves and premiums to assure
solvency; provisions in the policies the companies
issue: the way they invest their money-and
many other points.
The affairs Of the company are subject to con.

laws of each of the 48 states

tinuous supervision and periodic examination by
state supervisory authorities. Each company has
to report in detail to these states each year on
forms prescribed by the National Association Of
Insurance Commissioners.
The periodic examinations cover such things
as the general conduct of the business, the
solvency of the company, the type and value of
its investments and the character of service to
its policyholders.
Both the yearly reports submitted by the
companies and the reports of examination made
by the supervisory authorities are matters Of
public record.

NEWMAN'S TRIP

Mr.. and Mrs. Jess Newman of
Mays Head have returned from a
five-week motor trip to the West
Coast and other points. Returning
last Wednesday from their trip,
they reported visiting states of
Nevada, California, Arizona, and
other states on their route. A high
light of the trip was a trip down
the west peninsula of Mexico, see
ing much beautiful scenery, and
collecting many sea shells and
growths. After returning from the
trip down the peninsula, they
travelled deep into Mexico proper,
and found road conditions poor, at
one time spending two days to
travel twelve miles, building a
road as they went. Poor living
conditions were evident, and la
borers work for SO cents a day.
On their return east, they passed
through Dallas and Fort Worth,
Tex, Louisiana, Mississippi, and
down into Florida for a few days.
