Besides, any one who can talk
some one into doing the baby
sitting nowadays when there is
no televiSion available deserves
something more than somebody's
else's television Set-something
like the Shoreham Terrace, say.
So, here is the secret opera
tive's report on the historic re-
turn of Arthur Godfrey. God
frey, as every one must know by
now. is at his Leesburg (Va.)
farm recuperating from an op-
Grafton. The remainder of the
cast of his Talent Scouts" show
was performing in New York.
Through what is referred to as
miracle of modern science, view
ers were able to see both at the
same time on home screens.
Godfred appeared, the report
says, seated in a chair on his
lawn, before an effective back
drop of white fence and trees.
He was clad in a loud sport shirt,
shorts and was barefooted. He
hasn't, he informed the devout,
had pair of shoes on since he
entered the hospital.
He also. the secret operatives

haircut. administered that day
by a man who came over from
the nearby garage. 1t appar-
emily made him a bit uncom-
Portable after he got a look at
himself on T'V monitor.
He carried on in much the
usual fashion, however, COM
menting on our life and times,
thanking Garry Moore, his "Tal-
ent Scouts" substitute, and
thanking the faithful for their
good wishes and prayers. He
even made the usual pot of tea
for the sponsor. And the techni-
clans brought off the interviews
quite effectively on the split
screen. At the end, Godfrey had
his usual close call, barely get
ting the weeks winner intro
duced.
The secret operative sums 1t
up: He seemed a little uncom-
Portable and not quite himself.
but he was the same. old God
frey. Precisely what that means,
secret operative does not say.
Whatever 1t means, Godfrey
continues to be unique in all
things. He now has become the
first entertainer ever required
to make q comeback while at

On the Air
He Was Not Quite Himself,
But the Same, Old Godfrey
On the Air
By Harry Macarthur

It was a momentouS occasion
in the television world. AS
Broadcasting- Telecasting Maga-
zine phraSed it, the devout could
attend services on Monday night
at $3.50. Arthur Godfrey was
returning to his CHS Talent
Scouts" show. It was front page
news to the CHS press depart
ment, third or fourth page news
to such less-biased sources of
information as newspapers.
Unfortunately, pressing busi-
ness elsewhere precluded first
hand observation of this widely
publicized return, being made by
way of the costliest microwave
relay ever employed solely to
allow one red-head to commune
with millions of devoted fol-
lowers. It was necessary to i'm
press a secret operative into
service.
The pressing business else
where, if you're going to harp
on that, was visiting the Shore
ham Terrace to watch the dane
ing of Carolyn Ayers and the
Escorts and the juggling -atop-a-
unicycle act of Payo and Mai.
This is a most enjoyable type
of pressing business. A summer
night on the terrace beats a
great many summer nights on
TV.
Furthermore, deponent has a
high-type mitigating circum-
stance to set forth. The televi-
sion set. while not an RCA model
sympathetic to NBC, had broken
down right in the face of Mr..
Godfrey's date with. his faithful.
It is just barely possible that it
became awe-struck and sue
cumbed to stage fright at the
thought of Godfrey'S return.
Anyhow the set worked fine
for the baseball on Saturday. 1t
developed electronic jitters Sat-
urday night during Meet Millie"
and was unable to carry on. 1t
was up to the latter half of the
ball game Sunday, but collapsed
again that night. On Monday,
G-Day, it just lay there gasping,
it's eye glazed and blank.
Going out to witness this mo-
mentous event on somebody
else's television set was possible,
but seemed silly. Television is
supposed to bring it right into
the living room, whatever 1t is.
If it won't bring it into the
living room, the heck with it.

ly. She represented the United

States and in some foreign coun-
tries.
There is Eugene Kinckle Jones,

outstanding in the field of human

tional and international problems.
A. Philip Randolph, organizer
and international president of the

izer in the American labor move
ment. He organized the porters in

American Federation of Labor
since that time.
DR.. Mordecai w. johnson, pres
ident of Howard university, is
distinguished educator and min
lister. AS the first Negro president

mental in bringing about the

sity. And he is also closely iden-

man relations.

coined the stranger to their table,
may it be at any meal during the
Sabbath holidays or week days.
There was no such thing that
she was too busy in the store. The
year around, the stranger was
made to feel at home. Beresh
Solomon brought ''Orchem" from
school after orthodox services,
and if strangers came during the
week, a visiting maggid, a rabbi
or one collecting funds for worthy
causes, and even those looking
for work, they were directed to
Beresh Solomon's home.
Norma Rae is the namesake of
two women personifying the
finest of characteristics becoming
the women of Israel. Norma Rae

NBC Promises to Bring
Mountain Climbing to TV
By Harry Macarthur

Now it is the National Broad
casting Co. which has caught
the Notwithstanding fever. It
has purchased the television and
radio rights for the third Ameri-
can Karakoram expedition, which
will have a go at K-2 shortly.
A series of filmed programs on
NBC-TV in the fall will report
the complete story of the at
tempt, success or failure. There
may also be a program or series
of programs on radio.
This will be the fifth attempt
to scale the peak, which domi-
mates the Karakoram range in
Northwest Pakistan, about 800
miles west of Mount Everest. Also
known as Mount Goodwin Austen,
K-2 is the second highest noun
tain in the world. The closest
any climbers have yet come to
it's %, 8,250-foot peak is the 10000
foot level, reached in 1888 by the
second American expedition.
The third expedition from this
country, sponsored by the Amer
lean Alpine Club and headed by
DR.. Charles S. Houston, will be
starting its climb next month.
It includes eight Americans, one
Briton, 100 native porters and
three tons of equipment.
The Americans left New York
on May 25 for Karachi. Pakistan.
From Karachi, the group flew to
Skardu in Northern Pakistan,
then set out on 175-mile march
through rugged country to the
base of the mountain. The
climbers expect to be on the
mountain for about six weeks.
Films taken by DR.. Houston and
others Of the party will be flown
back to NBC in New York every
week.
This will be the first time an
intimate record Of a mountain
climbing expedition will have
been made available to the
American public" according to
Davidson Taylor, NBC director
of public affairs. "K-2 is an
other example of how NBC-TV
is seeking to bring the adven-
lures of an entire planet to all
Americans.
