On the Air
The Doctor Rises Above
Filmed TV Drama AVERAGE
By Harry Macarthur

Half-hour filmed dramas on
television are more notable for
their quantity than their quality
One of them, however, has re-
Gently risen above the general
mediocrity of the field with
some regularity. 1t is 1.-The
Doctor" seen on Sunday nights
at 10 on WNBW.
THE Doctor" started last fall
as an uninspired series about
the strange things that happen
to a doctor. Somewhere along
the way, between then and a
few weeks ago. it changed course
and the change was for the
better. $751;.
It still has a doctor, or an
actor impersonating a doctor,
but only as some other shows
have a columnist impersonating
a. columnist, say, to act as host
and occasional narrator. The
link between 1.-The Doctor" and
the medical world Is a decidedly
slim one now.
Last Sunday night, as an
example of how things are going
here, THE Doctor" came up
with a yarn titled "No-Rap
Charlie" which wasn't written
by Damon Runyon but could
have been. Written for tele-
vision by Norman -Lessing. it
was the story of an accomplished
safe-cracker,, whose admiring
cronies had dubbed him NO
Rap Charlie" because he was so
good he never got caught.
Charles girl friend, with a
trunk full of jewelry and three
mink coats, all too calorif1c to be
worn in public, wanted him to go
straight. He promised to do that
the first time he got caught. You
could see the obvious coming the
next time he set out for an eve
ning's work.
The obvious, however, never
came. Instead Charlie engineered
another near-perfect crime,
slicker than his usual work
From a wall safe he packed a
mans gems in his bag. Then he
casually glanced at some papers
in the safe. One was labeled
Top Secret"
Charlie had stumbled across an
atom spy and his life suddenly
was complicated. An atom spy
obviously must be reported to the
FBl. But a safe-cracker, even
a patriotic one, thinks twice be-
fore walking into the FBI, toss
ing a top secret document on the
desk and saying, II just hap
pened to find that in fellows
safe"
This, to be sure, is not a di-
lemma within the experience of
most of us, nor is it likely to be.
1t is a more interesting comic
situation than most half-hour
TV dramas develop, though Mr.
Lessing's screenplay was i'm
aginative and Director Peter
Godfrey treated his television
chore with all the respect he
gave the full-size movies he used
to make. The cast headed by

"The Doctor" is produced by
Marion Parsonnet and is not
another Hollywood entry in the
telefilm field. This may or may
not be significant, but the ad-
dress of Parsonnet TV Film
Studios, Inc, is Long Island
City, N. Y. Life and times there
probably are closer to the Ma
TONS norm than in Hollywood
One of the pitfalls facing a
television reviewer. of course, lies
in the fact that last weeks gem
may be next weeks turkey. AS
saying TV sometimes feels like
trying to pick up a glob of mer-
curry while wearing boxing gloves.
There is a certain elusive quail
ity about the business at hand
If "The Doctor" fails you next

lieve that it has been above par

weeks.
IT'S OPERA-Last Sunday
afternoon when Ollie sternly
pointed out that a "Kukla, Fran
and Ollie" project coming up was
an opera. not an operetta. he
was rebuking the NBC press de-
partment. 1t hung that light tag
on the Kuklapolitan enterprise.
The opera, not operetta, is an
original written especially for
the Kuklapolitans by Jack Fas-
cinato, with lyrics by Fascinato
and Burr Tillstrom. It is based
on the legend of "St. George and
the Dragon" It will be per-
formed on Sunday. June Z, with
Ollie, naturally, playing the

The Role of Books as Mass Media

must settle their hash with those
who deal with mass media in the
robust if irreverent fashion with
which mass media have always
been treated, that there still re-
mains the book. and the book will
never become mass medium: 1t
is still the voice of a human be-
ing talking to listener. He may
be teaching. or preaching. or
amusing. or cajoling. or just plain
lying, but if we let him talk down
to us that is our own fault, and
if we don't like what he says we
can shut him up. Furthermore,
we are always aware that he is
speaking er parte, that his is only
one side of the case. that the
probability is high that he, like
other human beings, is in error
either in major thesis or in minor
detail, and that in any case there
are other and possibly better
books.
The notion that mankind is
corrupted by books, is believe,
a notion held by those whose own
reading has been largely of that
enforced and unselective kind
which the mass media provide.
Books are corruptive only of those
who seek to be corrupted; but
they are already corrupt.
am convinced that the very
appearance of books as mass
media will, by providing greater
freedom of choice and COMPARE
son, provide their own salvation
from this new status. An essen
tial step in this direction must be
the discovery. or the rediscovery,
of what reading-as opposed to
passive and unselective abSorp-
tion-really consists. That is an
other story, to which President
Eisenhower contributed when, in
his Dartmouth speech on June
IA, he said, Don't be afraid to
read every book, so long as
that document does not offend
our own ideas of decency." Mean
while, the events of the past year
show that the book needs all the
help it can get from its friends
tn hasten this process.

QUALITY WON A CLEAR-CUT
decision over quantity in the sports
literary output this year. This
doesn't happen very often, so
1858 might well be remembered
as vintage year for books hailing
the conquering heroes.
AS usual, baseball authors were
in the majority. with volumes on
football next and golf, for once, a
poor third. Baseball also scored
heavily in the book stalls with
successful novel, THE Southpaw,
written by Mark Harris, a frus-
trated ball player with consider
able talent as a writer. At 81, this
was his third book, the others
being novel and biography.
1.-THE Southpaw," published by
BobbS-Merrill. traces the pitching
career and didoes of one Henry
Wiggen from the sandlotS of Perk-
insville, N. Y, to the World Series.
1t got uniformly good reviews and
deservedly so.

Then there was 1.-THE Joe

1947; another volume of Best

On the Diamond

Everybody knew the outspoken
Rogers Hornsby could produce a
lively book if he ever got around
to it. He finally did with the aid
of J. Roy Stockton, veteran sports
writer, and Mckay published MY
Kind of Baseball" several months
before the author lost another job
as manager of the Cincinnati
Redlegs. It made spicy reading,
but Hornsby seemed to devote too
much space to defending himself
against unstated charges.

The Football Pros

Roberts has fertile field in
professional football, for no sport
ever turned out a higher ratio of
colorful figures. The writer makes
the most of it with some new
and old-twistS on stories about
Jim Thorpe, Johnny Blood.
Bronko Nagurski, Cal Hubbard
and the like. Roberts prefaces his
work with a chapter proposing
Hall of Fame for pro football
players and makes out pretty
good case.
The authors candidates from
the Washington RedSkins-he
dominates a group from each Ma
tional Football League team-are
Sammy Baugh, Cliff Battles, Turk
Edwards, Wayne Millner, Ernie
Pinckert, Dick Todd, Wilbur
Moore and Owner George P.
Marshall. Ray Flaherty, the
teams most successful coach,
wasn't included because he's listed
among the Giants, with whom he
served as a star end in his play
ing days. So Andy Farkas comes
to mind as probably the most
notable absentee among ex-Red-

we're making, in this respect, an
unconscious distinction between
books and mass media, although
in other respects the distinction
was lost to sight. On the other

shocked to hear of the burning

A Baseball Giant

One of the most readable of the
years books was 1.-THE Real Nc

McGraw with the aid of the able
Arthur Mann. This was a labor of
love for the widow of baseball's
most famous manager as she de-
picts a side of the hard-boiled
Little Napoleon" that few people
ever knew. A Baltimore belle at
the turn of the century, Mrs. Nc
Graw fhus was able to draw a col
orful picture of the old Orioles.
