Bulletin Tells How to
 Stop Water Damage in Tightly Insulated Homes

Routed framing, ice dams, water spots on ceilings and paint dam- age may appear as a result of moisture condensation in tightly built and well insulated Alaskan homes.
 Home builders can avoid some of this damage.
 Agriculture engineers C. I. Branton and C. R. Fahnestock ex- plain moisture condensation and it's control in Extension Service Bulletin 800, "Condensation Con- trol for Alaskan Homes and Farms" Research for the bulletin was done at the University of AL aska agricultural experiment sta ton in Palmer.
 Control of condensation includes use of vapor barriers to stop the flow of moisture from warm in teriors to cold outer walls. Insula- tion and ventilation also enter the problem.
 Bulletin 800 is available with out charge from the university office at College.

1.-THE Royal Family" what
ever you think of This Is Your
Life" was up against one Of
the latter's most dramatic pro-
grams. the widely advertised
story of Lillian Roth's return
from the jungle of alcoholism.
1t also was up against the un-
deniable If not exactly cheer
ing fact that the one-hour
dramas, while they give tele-
vision many of its best hours,
are not among its most pop
ular shows. Only rarely does
one sneak into the top 10 in
the ratings.
There was, though maybe a
man should hesitate to bring
it up, an extraneous factor at
work when Lady in the Dark"
was televiSed, too. It was on
from 9 to 1890 a week ago
last night and there must have
been a great deal of dial
twisting at that 8 o'clock sta
ton break. How the color show
would have Jared an hour ear
lier is moot, but not very.

his old Saturday -night-at-8

Right Program Won
These audience-rating fig
ures, of course, mean more to
sponsors than to any one
else. For this reason they also
mean more to broadcasting
network executives than to
almost any one else. So.
whether you are watching the
"Spectaculars" on that old
monochrome set, a new color
receiver, or over the mahogany
at the corner bar-and-grill,
you can count it fortunate that
Lady in the Dark" was the
rating winner.
These first three big color
shows, curiously enough, rep
resented three distinctly diff
ferent program types. "Satins
and Spurs" was a colossal bore
on home screens: those who
saw it in color were so di-
verted and deceived that some
thought it delightful.
1.-THE Royal Family" was all
right in color, but it soon be-
came clear why Hollywood
has never made the full switch
to color for all films. Color
just didn't make the comedy
of "The Royal Family" any
more or less funny. One
viewer, who made the expert

most night clubs are air-con-
ditioned. This artificial COOL
ing is murderous on a singer.
1t must be particularly trying
on an older singer"
Caruso and the opera giants
Of his day had many things
to contend with, but air-con-
ditioning wasn't one Of them.
In the golden. era of Caruso,
opera stars sang perhaps one
performance a week, made oc-
casional records and that was
that.
Different times call for diff
ferent tunes. It is safe to as
sumo that were Caruso alive
and at his peak today. you'd
find him certainly appearing
on TV. Whether or not he'd
yield to the siren appeal of
Las Vegas silver dollars Is open

Now Come Meet That Other Imoqene Coco
But There's Still

called me a comedienne." A
comedienne she remained on
the stage. and continued
through five years on TV
teamed with Sid Caesar on
"Your Show of Shows" Her
new show is her first on TV
in a starring role.
Appropriately, Miss Coca's
favorite entertainment is tele-
vision "but I don't like comedy
shows-I always watch murder
mysteries and dramas"
She and her husband, a
record company executive, are
seldom seen in night spots and
when they do go out IT like to
get home in time to see the
late movie"
Wrapped up in show busi-
ness, Miss Coca says she
doesn't have many hobbies
have a dog and two cats and
I'm going to get another dog"
"I'd love a race horse-one
that could win-that would be
a hobby"
She makes no pretense of
being a whiz at homemaking,
admitting that "I can't cook
oh, I suppose I could prepare a
charcoal steak or eggs"
Whom has she admired most
in the entertainment world?
Helen Hayes long has been
my ideal, and Gertrude Law

gives a strikingly different i'm
preston. There you see a
somewhat shy, sensitive, pen
sive Coca. Her mannerisms
and conversation are in
marked contrast to those of
the brash Imogene of the TV
screen.
The difference may be ac-
counted for in large part by
Miss Coca's own career and
personal life. Her father was
a Philadelphia orchestra lead

actress, so she was born in a

their voices are losing vocal
luster or they want to make
some money. Miss Traubels
voice is till a magnificent in
Strument. so you can assume
that she wasn't content to get
along on opera fees.
Merrill's voice Is just ap-
preaching its greatest timbre,
so here again you have an
opera star who wants to grab
some of the extra loot SO cas-
lily available.
Just how these great voices
will stand up to the strain Of
two performances q night re-
mains to be seen. Both Miss
Traubel and Merrill, at Las

as pop" singers do, so this
certainly spares their vocal
chords.
