Network TrundIes in Gordon MueRoe
As Its Anti-Ed Sullivan Weapon
By Hal Humphrey

which could be called positively
eruptive compared to the sat-
urnine Sullivan?
First of all, it's pretty diff
ficult to find another Sullivan.
NBC came pretty close to 1t
a year ago last summer when
it had Hoagy Carmichael en-
ceeing Saturday Night Revue" !"
Hoagy is as allergic to smile
as Sullivan, and approached
his chore in almost the same
stiff-necked fashion-but he
bombed" as they say in the
trade. @
He Won't ToIk
So NBC is hoping that Mac.
Rae will overpower Sullivan
with sheer force of PERSONAL
ity. MacRae, himself. doesn't
care to be drawn into a dis
cussion about being a compet-
itator to Sullivan.
''I'm going to just be myself
and try to do a job" he says.
The former star Of MICS
now defunct Railroad Hour"
on radio is not a complete
novice at this emcee business.
He filled in for Sullivan a cou-
pie of times while the latter
was vacationing, and also
subbed for Jackie Gleason
when the comic broke his
ankle last year.
MacRae feels that hosting
the Comedy Hour" The will do
20 of the shows this season.
affords him a slick way Of get
ting into TV without bearing
the responsibility of his own
show.

NBC and CHS, the compete
tive behemoths of the broad
casting world, seem to spend a
great deal of their time and
energy dreaming up answers
to one another's programming.
If one network grabs the
biggest share Of the TV audi
ence on a certain day and
hour, then it's up to the other
to "come up with the answer"
The latest development in
this game of answer" pro-
gramming is coming up to-
night when NBC will shoot
Gordon MacRae at Ed Sulli-
van, electronically, at 8 o'clock.
A CIeor Field
For the past few years Sui
livan and his "Toast of the
Town" hour on CHS have been
clobbering NBCs Comedy
Hour" quite consistently. About
the only Sunday evenings that
Sullivan takes a beating are
those when Dean Martin and
Jerry Lewis are starred on the
COMEDY Hour Since Lewis
has been sick or committed
elsewhere so far this season,
Sullivan has had a clear field.
But tonight NBC is unveiling
Singer MacRae as the answer
to Sullivan. The thinking
Chats what it's called, so
help meD is that the Comedy
Hour" needs a permanent host
emcee Ito pull things together"
Viewers might very well ask
at this point, why choose Mac
Rae who sings, dances a little.
