The Passing Show
Miss Corne|I's PIoy
Lindsoy-Crouse Write on Exciting Blend
Of Romantic Emotion and World Politics
By Joy Cormody

one knows this better than the
authors of THE Prescott Pro-
posals." So they hold to what
they know, and feel safe with.
characters in a play who are
like people in life.
Central among these is Mrs.
Prescott, a dramatic heroine
with not one, but three, dilem-
mas. One of these is her pro-
posals for peace, basically a
suggestion that nations in
conflict try to find the small
things on which they can
agree instead of fighting end
lessly on the large ones on
which they disagree.
The proposals are endan-
gered by a purely personal
melodramatic involvement on
Mrs. Precott's part. An Iron
Curtain envoy, an old suitor
years before in pre-war Eu-
rope. has dropped dead in her
apartment. Scandalously treat
ed in the press as it could be,
the incident could discredit
Mrs. Prescott and her propo-
sails.
The third dilemma concerns
the pursuit of the already ter
ribly busy Mrs. Prescott by a
reserved radio commentator
captivated by her womanli-
ness.
Difficult Fusion
Any one of these conflicts in
itself is ample to the require
mentS of play but Lindsay
and Grouse are unfeazed by
the necessity to work them
into a dramatic unity. Nor
are they confused by the fact
that a multitude of the char
acters are anything but COL
lateral. These latter are U. N.
ambassadors, five of them.
They represent England,
France, Russia, Pakistan and
Czechoslovakia.
This representation is any
thing but sketchy, as are the
foreign policies of their gov
ernments and the systems
which nurtured them.
These are closely recogniz-
able counterparts of the U. N.
figures whose words and pho
tographed features have been
on the front pages for years.
One of them, the fiercely un-
compromising Russian, is the
plays next most important
character, the romantic COM
mentator to the contrary. He
is the one with whom Miss
Cornell plays out the major
conflict of the drama, and wins
it not by an expedient piece of
dramatic gallantry but by CIV
ing the Russian an attack of
conscience.
1t is to the credit of the
Messrs. Lindsay and Grouse
that they have not only tack
led the toughest drama-writing
job in a long time but that
they bring it of so deftly.
In a still slightly tentative
condition, 1.-THE Prescott Pro-
posals" is an eloquent play.

.Phonevision is one of the
proposed systems for giving
home television a box office.
1T Needs Income
II firmly believe that to in
sure it's full future promise, he
said, "television needs to set
its economic house in order. I
believe that it must broaden
its financial base to encom-
pass subscription income. It
needs this income to fulfill its
potentiality for public service,
because it seems plain to me
that the time is not far of
when advertisers can no longer
afford to carry the entire
burden.
"Television will have come
of age when it is economically
able to bring to an eager pub
lie the whole panorama Of
entertainment, sports and cur
rent events which it is now
technically able to do"
Supporters of Phonevision,
which uses a scrambled TV
signal on a regular channel
and an unscrambling signal
sent by telephone line, have
petitioned the FEC for a fee
TV hearing. Supporters Of
Telemeter, which uses a coin
box on the set to unscramble
the picture signal. did not
mead FEC approval for their
Palm Springs (Calif) expert
ment started last week. Tele-
vision comes into Palm Springs
homes by Telemeter-owned
land lines, not via the public's
air waves.
Controversy Again
Actually. according to Tel
emeter spokesman, the Palm
Springs venture is not a test
but the opening of business.
Paramount Pictures is a part
owner of Telemeter and exec
utives see it as a means Of
reaching the movies lost au-
dience. There are plans for
extending it soon to some Of
the 220 other communities
where sets are connected to a
master antenna system.
