Desi ArnaZ, to make a film
this summer. And it has per-
mitted contract player, Barry
Sullivan, to try out for q TV
film series OF the lot.
Paramount has noticeably
relaxed it's rules against TV
in recent weeks. Players are
permitted to appear on the
home screens for exploitation
purposes. Among its top stars,
Bob Hope, Bing Crosby, Mar
tin and Lewis and Rosemary
Clooney already have the right
to do TV.
RKO players are allowed to
plug movies on TV out Of
town, but not yet in Holly
wood. There is no change in
the stand-fast attitude at
Warmers, but a new policy is
rumored.
Columbia Is the only big
studio making films for TV.
Its subsidiary, Screen Gems,
turns out half hour shows for
Ford Theater" and "Caval-
cade of America" The prof.
ects repeatedly do not show
a profit, but will do so when
the films are rerun. Columbia
will let its stars make occa-
sional appearances to exploit
films.
A Typical ExompIe
UNIVERSAL international has
the same policy on appear
ances. It also permitted Rock
Hudson to have his life por-
trayed on the Ralph Edwards
show, "T'his Is Your Life"
A U-I subsidiary made a few
films for a TV film series, but
it was reported abandoned be-
cause of costs.
Here is a typical example
of the studios new attitude:

The telecast marked the
start of the studios new pol

other big studios have been
stand -offish, not permitting

most ignoring the existence Of

The next move is for 2Oth-
Fox to permit clips Of it's new

Six pictures have been lined
up for Miniature World Pre-

anne Dance has the honor. and
she wears it with distinction
The dozen songs, among them
some Of the most haunting
ever written, are sensuously
communicated and beautifully
recorded on a London 1O-inch
LIP, with discreet accompani-
ments by Guido Agosti. The
German-EngliSh is included.
Beethoven and Schubert pro-
vide some engrossing listening,
too, in a new recorded recital
by the contralto Elena Niko-
laidi. Six songs to texts by
Gellert COP. 48)-one is the
Well-known hymn Die Ehre
GotteS aus der Natur"-and
the "An die Ferne Geliebte"
cycle make up the Beethoven
quota, while the six Schubert
songs number some Of the best
known. Miss Nikolaidi sings
perceptively, and Columbia's
engineering is exemplary. One
wishes full texts had been in
cluded, though; when will this
practice become rudimentary?
Collie Fare
Quite different is Gallo fare,
which we have on two Lon.
don discs. The singer in each
case is a baritone, Jacques jan
sen. Debussy, Chabrier and
Ravel are represented on a IL
inch disc, the range being from
Chabrier's lighthearted songs of
grasshoppers C"Les Cigales"),
turkeys ("Ballade des Gross
Dindons'D and ducks ("Villa-
nellie des petits Canards") to
Ravel'S atmospheric Chan
sons Madecasses." The De-
busy - "Trois Ballades de
Francois Villon," lie Prone
noir des Deux Amants" and
"Fantoches"-perhaps will be-
relished even more. The Sec
ond disc (1O-inch), more cas-
ual in spirit, is devoted to songs
of Reynaldo Hahn. M. Jansen
has a pleasing voice and uses
it skilfully. Here it's Lon
don's turn to omit the texts.
Admirers of Geori Boue will
be attracted to a new Urania
recording combining Debussy's
"Mandoline" and III pleure
dams mon coeur," three songs
of Faure and two of Duparc
with several operatic arias.
The singing is admirable. On

ton was shrill, though.

When London gets around
to recording another Mozart
opera, let's hope Hide Gueden
is among those present.
The reasons are amply in
dicated in the latest sample
Of this Viennese nightingale's
wares. "Exsultate, Jubilate,"
the Mozart motet whose "Alle-
lula" finale helped make De-
anna Drbin'S the name it
once was, is the major item.
VocaliSm so pure, so effortleSs
and so expressive is seldom to
be heard. Equally cogent evi-
dence on the oversize are
three operatic arias-Pamina'S
wistful Zach, Ich fuehl'S" from
Magic Flute" Susanna'S gay
"Venite inginocchiatevi" from
Marriage Of Figaro" and the
soulful 'L'amero, saro cos
tante" from the youthful III
Re Pastore," the most inter-
esting Of the three because it
is heard less often. The suave
Vienna Philharmonic accom-
paniments, led by Alberto
Erede, have q virtue of their
own. This all on a 10-inch LIP.
The five concert arias which
Magda LaSzlo sings on another
new Mozart disc from Vienna
are rarer Stuff-does one ever
appear on a Washington con-
cert program? The worse that
they don't. One, "Ch'io mi
scordi di te," is especially note
worthy. for 1t includes a piano
sort Of a combined piano
concerto and aria, altogether
delightful. "Ah, 10 previdi"
is an early dramatic aria TX.
272), but all the rest are
mature works, and all five are
among Mozart's most felici-
tous. Miss Laszlo's way is not
quite so beguiling as Miss
Gueden'S, but she, sings ap-
pealingly to accompaniments
of the State Opera Orchestra.

More Mozort'
The thoroughgoing Mozartian
will want to investigate both
III Re Pastore" and "zaide,"
another early Mozart stage
work, both Of which lately
have become available in COM
plete recordings. I'll Re Pas
tore" (The Shepherd King),
written before Mozart was 20
and little more than a series
of recitatives and tarias, seems
pretty tame next to the later
great operas. But besides
"L'amero, saro costante" it
has some other attractive mel
odies, and it bears the un-
mistakable stamp of things to
come, conveyed in accurate
though uninspired fashion by
Stuttgart performers in a two
disc Period set. The recorded
sound is excellent.
"Zaide," a German-language
affair, more definitely suggests
masterpieces to follow. Here
the arias begin to take on more
distinction-there is a laugh
ing aria, among others - and
there are some real ensembles,
to wit a splendid trio and
equally fine quartet. Further
more, the performance at hand
benefits from the presence of
a promising soprano named
Mattawilda Dobbs, whose rem
dition of "Ruhe sanft, mein
holdes Leben" is well worth
noting. This set, from Poly
music, also is well recorded.

Home grown fun has lots of flaw

our cherished institutions. Simple
pleasures, the smiles of parents and
young folks come easily in the

was especially true in Saturday
night when family gatherings held
forth in vast and quiet gripping
pleasure. All during the week, in
the old days, plans for some big
event on Saturday night were car
ried out and every member of the
family, large or small had to be
there. Sometimes it was a trip to
a neighboring farm or a trip to
see the town movies or else an en-
tertainment by home talent. But
anyway all the big times on Sat-
urday night, were the banner ones
of the whole week. Some people
never came out only on Saturday
night, but then they made up for
the dull hours before then.

Al W&L as Turning
Point in Good Year
By George Huber

George Washington'S football
team has lost its last three
games, but it hopes to make the
Washington & Lee game at Lex
ington the turning point in what
yet may be a successful season.
A victory Saturday will put
the Colonials even with three
won and three lost, and with
MARYLAND, Davidson and Rich
mond yet to go. It's practically
guaranteed that the Colonials
will drop their game against
Maryland, but they could take
the others and finish with a
5-4 record.
There is some lineup juggling
going on at the CIV practice
field this week, particularly IN
the backfeld. Coach Bo Sher-
man is shifting players between
his two units and trying new
alignments, particularly on de-
fenSe.
Something must be done to
tighten the pass defense this

shots for 348 yards. His per-

But if CIV has cause for con-
Germ about wills passing. the
Generals can worry, too. They
remember what CIV passes did
to them last year.
The Generals had 21-7 lead
in the third period, but at the
end it was 1928 for CIV. Two
long passes from Ray Fox to
Richie Gaskell went for touch
downs, and both of these boys
are clicking again.
Also still with the Colonials is
