Gay Operetta
OF No. Woods
Due AT Strand

The weeks big screen attraction
at the Strand Theatre is "Rose
Marie" M-G-M's first Cinema :
Scope musical starring Ann Blyth,
Howard Keel, Fernando Lamas,
Bert Lahr and Marjorie Main.
Here is picture which literally
has everything - color, action, ro-
nance, laughter, breathtaking set
tings filmed in the Canadian Roc
kies and in California's High Sier-
ras, and the Rudolph Friml songs
beloved throughout the world.
Its triangular romance of a
French Canadian girk of the woods,
a fur trapper and a Canadian
mountie lends itself brilliantly to
the new CinemaScope medium. The
vast panoramas Of the snow capped
mountain ranges, glaciers, pine for
ests, lakes, streams and waterfalls
are presented with a majestic gran
deur and sweep never seen in an
outdoor motion picture before, with
stereophOnic sound highlighting not
only the lovely Friml melodies but
also such VIVID scenes as those of
the hard-riding mounties on the
gallop, the thrill episodes of the
chase of runaway horse and the
Kill OF an attacking puma, and the
spectacular Totem Dance, a spec.
tacle Of primitive savagery involv.
ing hundreds of Indians dancing to
drums and tom-toms.

Navy To Define
Relationship Of
Marine Corps

WASHINGTON R-The Marine
Corps relationship to the Navy is
to be defined in an order now
being prepared in the Navy de-
partment.
Acting Secretary Of the Navy
Thomas S. Gates Jr. so said in let
ters to Congress members who had
expressed concern over published
reports that admirals are trying
to gain more control over the
Marines. Gates said the final draft
of the new order has not been
completed.
Gates sent Sen. Mansfield ID
Mont) and Rep. Bender (R-Ohio) }
copies of a policy memorandum
issued last April by then Secretary
Of the Navy Robert Anderson. That
document termed the Marine Corps
a unique but not separate SER
vice."
The memorandum specified the
chief of Naval operations as the
senior military officer Of the Naval
establishment and gave the Navy
secretary authority to assign that
officer responsibility for certain
Marine Corps matters. The policy
paper also stipulated that the Ma
rine Corps commandant was to be
directly responsible to the Navy
secretary.
The only Marine units placed
under Navy command were those
on duty aboard ships or attached
to Navy shore stations.

On the Air
Justice Douglas Is Calm
As " Takes UpHis Book
By Horry Macarthur

Television, which enriches our
lives In so many wondrous ways,
will let us share an experience
with q justice Of the Supreme
Court tonight.
This is not the first time the
science of electronics has per-
nitted this. of course. When 1t
happened before, however. none
of us was aware of it at the time.
That was when Transit Radio
was belaboring us about the ear
drums with forced feeding Of mu-
sic and commercials.
It was only when this matter
got into the Supreme Court
somehow that we captive listen
ers discovered that Justice Felix
Frankfurter was one of our an
guished number. He felt SO
strongly about this matter. he
declared at the time. that he did
not feel qualified to sit in UNI
biased judgment on any part Of
1t.
Many Of us. though not shar-
ing his judicial restraint. knew
exactly how he felt.
1t will be Justice William O.
Douglas whose feelings we will
be, If not precisely sharing. at
least divining tonight. Justice
Douglas new book, IAN Almanac
Of Liberty" is to be the basis
for the Studio One" drama on
CBS-TV at 10 pm.
Readers of the book undoubt-
edly will greet this news with
quizzical eyebrow raised high.
It is not the sort of thing Of
which most one-hour dramas on
television are made. If any one
Is worrying about how the trick
was done, however. he is doing
a lot more than Justice Douglas
Is doing.
He hasn't the faintest idea,
the justice disclosed in his
chambers the other morning,
what has been done to turn his
book into a TV drama. What's
more, he does not seem to be
overly concerned about it. The
whole thing was handled by a
New York agent and up until
now the agent has proved trust
worthy.
This, Of course, is the sort
Of writer that a producer dreams
about but seldom encounters.
Most of these. less sure than
Justice Dougles that television
can't hurt them, are in there
fighting for every amputated
comma.
But not Justice Douglas. He'll
be sitting at home tonight re-
laxed, prepared to be as sur
prised as any Of the rest Of us
at what happens on Channel 8
when IAN Almanac Of Liberty"
Is televised.

played to the entire network
without a canned laugh track"

WAtllDut d CallIlS0 laugh tIdCk.
The show referred to was tele-
cast a week ago Friday, and since
viewers did not start any boycott
Of the network, or write threat
ening letters to its president. Pat
Weaver, the laugh track on Dear
Phoebe" was dropped again last
week.
This brave, new experiment is
the work Of Alex Gottlieb, pro-
ducer-writer of this filmed COM
edy series starring Peter Law
ford.
Having come to TV from the
movie industry, Gottlieb was APP
palled when informed at the be-
ginning of the season that he
must incorporate canned laughs
on his show.
II was always under the inn
preston that. an audience,
whether it be sitting at home or
in theater, should be allowed
to make UP its own mind about
what is funny" Gottlieb says.
He quickly was disillusioned by
the men in the New York adver-
tising fraternity who never laugh
at anything until the boss does.
Gottlieb had lots of his and
Lawford's dough sunk into Dear
Phoebe" so did not argue the
point. Ad agency and sponsor
people wanted to hear laughs,
and who was Gottlieb to fight
a combination like that?
However, after the show had
been on the air four or five
weeks, Gottlieb surveyed the
mail it was drawing and dis
covered that about 80 per cent
Of 1t contained derisive cracks
about the laugh tracks.
He brought this. to the atten-
ton Of the agency and the spon-
sor, and finally got permission
to cut the phony laughs from a
few shows at least four, he
hopes.
1.-THE arrangement may not be
permanent" says Gottlieh. sadly.
1.-THE sponsor is willing to let the
public decide. Should the re-
Spouse be as great as antici-
pated, then viewers will continue
to be allowed to laugh on their
own"
Frankly. I'm afraid Gottlieh
Is going to be disappointed. A
man being beat over the head
with q hammer will protest loud
" over such treatment, but once
the beating stops. it rarely oc-
ours to him that he should
thank any one for the relief.
= the audience rating on
Dear Phoebe does not drop,
then Gottlieb may win his point
and other producers may get the
courage TO ask sponsors to strike
the laugh tracks.
Unfortunately, the incorpora-
ton OF q laugh track into q half
hour film only costs about 5000
average. II the adding OF laughs
were an expensive process, then
things might be different.
Nobody likes to hear q bunch
of people laughing at his own
expense.

cool refreshments to satisfy
all appetites. So, Nom, leave

this a social attraction which
should be attended by people
