Of the 1853 season the program
was on IS TV stations with an
estimated audience Of nearly 10
million.
The program started origin

CORRESPONDENCE Your
ra adio- TV commentator may
think he knows all there is to
know. but there are a lot of
folks who'd prefer Midwestern
Hayrides to such stuff as pro-
duced by Berle, Shelton, the
Arnaz half of Lucy, and many
more that could be mentioned.
We and our friends have sent
in several cards, and they
weren't anonymous. Well sign
a few names right now. Incl
dentally. why limit Phil Spitalny
to Is minutes, Fred Waring to
80. or kick Liberace onto the
late hours, when people who
work have to take shut-eye?"

does not know the cube root of

happened to Ambrose Bierce
he does not know Marilyn Mon

feel to be a TV program director
who had to please everybody
Wenzel, Lee and Tullis and the
people who prefer Berle to Mid

who prefer to listen to Liberace
at 10 pm.
He does know that he had
nothing to do with limiting
Spitalny to IS minutes, Waring
to 80 or with kicking Liberace
onto the late hours when people
who work have to take shut-eye
He also knows that nobody will
put Spitalny on for an hour

sympathy. After all, you get

.NBC Signs Leland Hayward;
1872 Stations to Garry Sheen
By Harry Macarthur

Leland Hayward, whose debut
as television producer was one
of the arts historic events, has
been lured further into the TV
fold. The man who turned out
the sensational two-network
50th anniversary television show
for Ford has been signed by the
National Broadcasting Co.
Mr.. Hayward will act as both
a television producer and as a
production consultant, according
to the announcement made by
John K. Herbert, vice president
in charge of networks for NBC.
It was not announced what spe-
cif1c shows Mr.. Hayward will
have a hand in.
The producer, who started out
as a newspaperman, also has
been a movie press agent, a
! talent scout and a literary agent.
AS a theatrical producer he has
brought to the stage such noted
works as South Pacific" Call
Me Madam" "Mr. Roberts" :"
Estate of the Union" and wish
You Were Here"
AS a television producer his
record is equally bright, if brief.
That one Show-the two-hour
Ford anniversary program-was
a triumph which won paeans
from professional and non-pro-
fessional critics alike. It has
him marked now the way South
Pacific" marked him in the
! theater. He is a television pro-
ducer who will have to produce.
Nothing but the best will be ex-
pected of him.
Mr.. Hayward's association
with NBC-TV apparently will
not alter some of his other
plans. He has production of the
new Howard Lindsay-Russel
Grouse play. THE Prescott Pro-
posals," scheduled for fall. He
also has a movie production OF
Ernest Hemingway's novel, THE
Old Man and the Sea-" sched-
uled for sometime in the near
| future.
CIRCULATION - Bishop Full
ton j. Sheen's sponsor, Admiral,
is insuring a wide audience for
him when he returns in the fall.
It has ordered the largest tele-
vision network yet assembled
! for a regular program - 1872
stations-to carry the bishops

moval job is to determine how
large a ball Of earth must be
kept on the roots.
Generally. nurserymen fig
ure the ball should have a
diameter in feet equal to the
diameter of the tree trunk in
inches. In the case of trees
having an IL or IL inch
trunk, however, this yatio is
cut down a bit. allowing the
ball to have a diameter of, say,
eight to 10 feet.
Next step is to dig a trench
to separate the ball of earth
from the surrounding site.
That's a pick and shovel job.

TranspIanting
Tree Is 3-Day
Job for s Men K
It's Eosy to Have
Reudy-Mude Shade;
AHYouNeed Is Gosh
By Robert J. Lewis

Oy NODSGC }. LEWIS
The customer went to the
tree nursery and said:
'I'll take the red oak"
The red oak was about IS
feet high, 80 years old and
weighed-with a ball Of earth
protecting its roots - about
nine tons.
To buy it and have it trans
planted cost the new owner
$500 just about the same
amount it costs a builder to get
rid Of the trees on a full acre
Of woodland.
To handle the transplanting
Job meant three days work for
SIX men and use of two trucks,
wincheS. pruning shears,
spades, .Shovels, rope and steel
cable, backhoe and tractor,
bolt-cutters, fence wire, burlap
and a wooden platform.
A cheaper way to own a red
oak is to let one grow from
Seeding or sapling size. But,
in this speedy age, people who
can fly to Europe in a couple
Of hours often don't have the
patience to wait 35 years for a
shade tree to grow IS feet. For
this reason, the tree trans
planting business is one to
reckon with.
It's not everybody who can
lift a tree out of the ground,
haul it to a new site, plant it
again and guarantee it will
continue to grow. Therefore,
the experts are being kept busy
by tree-loving citizens in this
prosperous era.
Which brings us to the topic
of the day. How do experts
move a tree that weighs nine
or 10 tons?
In the case Of the red oak,
we watched the process, talked
to few people. and now have
a rudimentary idea of what
happened. After all this, we
have more respect for tree
transplanters than we've ever
had before, and our respect for
them always was Of the first
magnitude.
If you want to move your
own tree. go ahead. But if the
job is unsuccessful, don't
blame us. The books say it's q
Job for an expert and, in our
opinion, the books are right.
Before getting down to the
actual work, you must decide
when the job should be done.
Trees usually are moved when
they are dormant-generally
in the late fall. winter, or early
spring. If you want a tree
moved in midsummer-leaves
and all-it can be done. But
that's a job for a real expert,

the trunk is tipped back hori-
zontally to the bed of the
truck the ball of earth will be
kept firmly attached to the
wooden platform.
To haul the tree, it's neces-
sary to tip the trunk back hor-
izontally with the bed Of the.
truck so that it can be taken
under bridges and telephone
wires, II necessary. After being
tipped back with a cable at
tached to another truck, the
tree is securely lashed to the
truck on which it rests and the
spreading limbs are tied in so
they do not extend beyond the
width of the truck.
Evening star., 1953-02-21

Strictly speaking, the earth
left on the roots is not shaped
like a ball at all, but more
like a deep-dish pie.
When the earth on the roots
is shaped, the projecting roots
are cut of with a spade or
pruning shears and the slant
ing sides are. wrapped in bur-
lap. at1 s4as4 n.
The burlap is then wired
snugly to the earth, so that
when the tree is moved the
earth will not be loosened from
the roots.
AT this point, the tree Is still
firmly fastened to the site by
Evening star., 1953-02-21

and even then it's risky busi-
ness.
The first step is to inspect
the new site. Does it have
enough drainage? If it doesn't.
you may have to install drain
tile at strategic points so that
the roots don't become water
logged, }.
Also, can you bring the tree
to the spot by truck? Do you
have easy access to the site?
Sometimes trees must be lifted
over houses by a crane if the
proposed site is otherwise in
accessible.
First step in the actual re-

the roots at the bottom Of the
ball. To break the ball loose
from the base, a cable is at
tached high up on the trunk
and the tree is slowly tipped.
When the ball is entirely
freed, it is tipped still further
and a wooden platform is in
serted under the base. With
the tree securely laShed to the
platform, the heavy tree. earth
encasing its roots is pulled
from the hole on rollers and
planks, and thence to a trailer
or truck.
At this point. the tree trunk
is yoked to the platform, so
that when, in the next step,
Evening star., 1953-02-21

(See LEWIS. Page B-5)
Evening star., 1953-02-21

In that position, the tree is
ready for hauling.
: Meanwhile. workmen at the
new site have dug a hole to ac-
commodate the ball of earth.
The bottom Of the hole is just
the depth of the ball. The dia-
meter Of the hole is two feet
greater than the ball.
When the tree is placed in
the hole and positioned, the
top Of the ball should be on
grade with the rest of the site.
The foot clearance around the
circumference is then filled
with topsoil into which some
natural fertilizer has been
mixed.
Evening star., 1953-02-21

AS the topsoil is being filled
in. it is watered to help settle
the earth and to supply mois-
ture for the thirsty roots.
