Ward. by the way, is director

Phony Boxing Stories

Goldie Ahearn is burning.
I asked him to review the
kraft Playhouse" production
of a fight drama Wednesday
night called "Ir the La Banza"
and he didn't blow his top
once.
He blew it 648 times.
Washington's most colorful
and voluble fight promoter
admitted that the "acting was
terrific, but in the end when
the two kids start to fight,
they put boxing back $50 years.
Wholly cheese, they couldn't
put up their hands"
And why is it, he said, that
every TV fight ends with either
the guy getting killed or TAX
ing a dive?"
"Is it any wonder that the
young fellas don't go in for
boxing any more? If we had a
boxing czar, like baseball or
football, he'd be knocking on
the doors of those knuckle-
heads who write these things"
The story, in case you missed
it, was about a reporter who
overmatches his young broth
er, a fighter with only six bouts
to his credit, with a ring vet
eran of 81 fights. Goldie says
it reminded him of a we'll
known pugilist and his eager
brother. who owns half of
his contract. This fellow
says Goldie, was a pretty good
fighter but he's been knocked
out more times than you got
hairs on your head. His brother
'retires' him, then he's back at
the next good offer"
I asked Goldie what he
thought Of the promoter.
Terrible" said Goldie. "He
didn't even know his business.
If he has three bad prelim-
inaries that end quick. he
should have an emergency
bout ready to throw in"

Other selected flaws:
/. No boxing commission
would have okayed q fight be-
tween q fighter with six bouts
and this veteran, who had
fought twice for the champion
ship.
2. The referee tells the
judges-not the fighter--that
he's taking the round from
him for q foul.

nasiums that Goldie has run
and frequented, has anybody
told one Of the fighters he was
a bum. Why they'd hop out
Of the ring and fix him good.

Howdy Doody is not going to
give up that afternoon time
spot this fail to Walt Disney's

without a fight.
According to NBC. Howdy
will be colorcast from a new
studio (which boasts every
thing from a permanent park
to disappearing walls"
1t adds that "a Doodyville
Park will flourish in the studio
all year round and viii be
spacious enough to permit
Clarabell to meander in his

Another feature is the "Clar-

trick doors; q pet shop with

flee and a general store.
ALI this will take place COM
mencing Monday, Sept. IL, and
you've got to admit that NBC
is being brave about the whole
thing. Not smart. But brave.
No Competing With Him
The wise thing to do would
be to shift Howdy to 4:30 and
forget about competing with
Disney. There is simply NO
competing with that man. Not
for the same audience.
An even wiser thing would
be to program for adults DUR
ing that period and admit
defeat. That would be too in
telligent, however.
II / sound overbearingly posi-
tive in my statements, it's
only because I spent about an
hour and a half last Monday
watching previews of different
segments of the Mickey Mouse
Club at Disney Studios with a
group of about so TV reporters
from all types of publications.
I don't see how it can miss.
We had just finished brief
tour of the Disney Studios
prior to the showing; we had
seen how the artists, writer's
and directors collaborate to
produce the product. We had
visited the busy carpenter
shops where skilled artisans
were building elephants for
Disneyland and the boats for
Davy Crockett's next saga.
. (They were being built on a
platform over the huge tank
where the Nautilus had re-
posed.)
Overwhelmed by Visit
The reporters left the Dis
ney studios in a humble daze.
Here is an incomplete sum-
mary of some of the things
your children will be seeing
this fall, between 5 and s, on
ABC-TV.
The Mickey Mouse Club" is
divided into four 15-minute
Segments.
Three times a week, the first
segment will consist of a chill
dren's newsreel, reporting ac-
tivities of children all over the
world.
Once a week, therell be q
15-minute safety cartoon,
hosted by that debonair crick-
ct. Jimmy. The one we saw
was on the proper way to ride
a bicycle and included a nifty
little song called I'm No Fool"
1t was delightful.
There's a Meet The"
series, which will feature visits
with famous people and places
or things.
There's a II Want to Be"
series. The one we saw gave
a young boy and girl a chance
to wear an airplane pilots and
stewardess' uniform. They
were with their seniors as
they were briefed for the flight
and the episodes were simply
and excitingly handled.
Cartoons to Conclude
There are at least two
weekly serials in the works.
One of them, Hans Brinker
and the Silver Skates" is now
being filmed by a Disney
crew in Holland.
The last is minutes of each
hour show will be devoted to

NEW YORK, July 24.-Just

Cronyn and Jessica Tandy
have received a great deal Of
money and a large amount Of
fame. And, they agree, it
probably helps that they actu-
ally ARE married.

be a welcome addition to any
community. Cronyn is short,
speaks slowly. and smiles
quickly. His wife, Jessica, is
q slender, fair-haired woman
with blue eyes, q pert nose and
a beaming smile.
An Amusing Couple
In 1.-THE Fourposter" the
Cronyns, playing the entire
cast Of two, are also a pleas
ant, amusing couple. The diff
ference is that In the dramas

youth to old age. They unfold,
as Oscar Hammerstein puts
it. "the beauty that lies In
all the married lives of all the
stumbling. bumbling human
beings who try to do their
best with each other"

case" several million more are
likely to see them.
Watching them rehearse in
q bare room without costume
or makeup makes you wonder
If their transition from stage
to television is difficult.
There are differences"
Cronyn says slowly. We've
done television shows before,
of course. But the TV stage
for 'Fourposter' is wider and
deeper. After playing the
parts more than 700 times on
the same size stage, you no
tice a great difference when

surprising how you have to

ing without an audience"
Cronyn continues. Normally
we'd rather work without an
audience on TV, but in The
Fourposter' we grew so used
to the laughs. knowing just
when they were coming, that
the laughs were very helpful
cues"
Yet the lack Of laughs from
a live audience is proving help
full in timing the play. Run
ming time of "The Fourposter"
on Broadway was 104 minutes.
Actual playing time on TV is
70 minutes. Figuring that is
minutes Of the Broadway run
ming time was used up in audi
ence laughter and applause,
the Cronyns found it necessary
to cut only II minutes from
the stage script.
Another problem is that the
Cronyns "age" three times in

had is minutes between acts
for makeup and costume
changes. On TV they have
about two minutes. That meant
