ON THE AIR
BY BERNIE HARRISON

Viewers who regularly watch
a show for several seasons are
usually alerted to a shift IN
emphasis on the program by a
drastic and generally we'll
advertised formal shakeup.
It's the subtler changes
within a formal that remains
fairly pat-that frequently
escape notice.
The viewer goes along Tor
several weeks, or even months
and then. all Of a sudden, a
bell rings. A man finds him
self looking at something he
never saw before.
A Bell Banged
It was just such a bell that
bonged last Sunday as I
watched the CBS-TV Face
the Nation" panel, John Mad
igan of Newsweek, Cabell
Phillips of the New York
Times and Rowland Evans. IT,,
of the New York Herald Trib-
une. question Adlai Steven
son.
It was one Of the most dis
turbing, unsettling half-hour
quiz sessions I've seen.
Mr.. Madigan. a reporter who
was selected because he has
covered Gov. Stevenson's ac-
tivities in Springfield and else
where, gave a particularly dis
treSsing performance. firing
questions that seemed to get
sillier as the program pro-
crossed.
I got the impression that
there was a director standing
of to one side of the camera
gesturing speed up. speed up"
to the panel and Madigan was
doing his best to comply.
At one point. where Gov.
Stevenson was explaining the
change of attitude that caused
him to announce his candidacy
well in advance, he remarked:
The Governors Wish
Eyes. I am no longer Gov
ernor of Illinois. ! am sorry
to say. I wish were"
A minute or so later, Mr..
Madigan picked this up and
asked:
Governor, you wish you
were still Governor Of Illinois
did you mean that face
tiously?"
MR.. STEVENSON: well. I
said-I meant that had / been
elected IN 1852, Governor. I
would still be Governor Of Illi-
noiS."
MR.. MADIGAN: lone Of the
complaints in 50. many times
and not necessarily that I
shared them, was that many
times. with such q remark as
that. you were too flip or too
humorous. Do you intend still
to campaign for the nomina-
ton"
MR.. STEVENSON: II don't

FRANCE SENDS US A MASTER MIME

with Les Brown at Midwestern
college dances.
He regularly appears on
Edgar Bergen's Sunday night
CHS radio program from the
West Coast. In the past year
he's cut more than a dozen
recordings, the most recent
being Get Load of Me" and
a spiritual, Noah Found
Grace" In short. he's a busy
young man.
While primarily a singer.
Gary is also interested in act
ing. When he appeared with
Jack Benny in a live TV dra-
matization Of Time Out for
Ginger" a couple of months
ago several critics greeted his
acting warmly.
II can't say I've never felt
nervous about television-ex-
cept once" Gary recalled. II
always have had a live audi
ence and I play to it and for
get about the cameras. But
this one time, about 10 min
utes before ! went on, l re-
ceived a telegram from Frank
Stanton. the president of CHS.
He wished me best of luck and
reminded me that l25 million
or something people would be
watching me. I'd never thought
of it before. For just a Sec
ond there wanted to Jump
out the window"
Self Confident
Marked by self -confidence,
Gary has modesty. too. Take
the matter of whether he'd
cotton to a high-paying ap-
pearance at one of the Las
vegas nlgnL Spots.
Dads against q Crosby APP
pearing in Las Vegas" he said.
He says he's against using
the name of Gary Crosby to
lure folks to Las Vegas where
they'd lose money gambling
when they ought to be spend
ing it to buy food or pay of
the mortgage.
We'll, I know what he
means. I mean I follow his
moral principle and / think
he's right. The only thing is
I don't think the name Of
Gary Crosby would lure any
body to Las Vegas-yet. I
think there's only one guys
name that could do it-and
that guy is Bing Crosby"
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1956-01-15

consider that flip or humorous.
I don't want to argue with
you. John, but to be Governor
Of Illinois is great honor"
What Was So Funny?
Mr.. Madigan. Of course. had
q perfect right to bring up the
subject Of the Governors
penchant for witty remarks.
The unsettling thing was that
the Governor had really said
nothing this time that could
be remotely construed as hui
morous and Mr.. Madigan, too
eager to make the point, found
himself charging in from left
field to scoop UP a passed ball.
1t will be noted in his reply
(from the CHS Transcript that
Mr.. Madigan stated an opin-
ion. then went on to another
question, forcing Gov. Steven
son to interrupt.
The show was thus turned
into an unseemly shouting
match with Gov. Stevenson
being outnumbered three to
one-thereby inheriting the
viewers sympathy.
Among Mr.. Madigan's other
questions (which quickly fol-
lowed were:
well, why do you want to
be President"
Mr.. Stevenson: II want to
be President only because a
great many people have indi-
Gated to me that they think
should be-"
Mr.. Madigan: Personally,
you don't want to be?"
Mr.. Stevenson: I'd be-
don't believe that the office of
the presidency is anything
that one should desire, to sat-
isfy anyone's personal am
bition."
Difficult to Answer
The candidate had a diff
cult time trying to discover
just what it was that he
wanted to know. In discussing
the state-of-the- Union mes
sage, Madigan asked
Doesn't it follow out
many Of the things the Demo-
Gratis started. and therefore
you would fayor?"
Mr.. Stevenson: IF you
are asking me what l think of
the message"
Mr.. Madigan: Generally,
what do you think of the mes
sage"
A few minutes later, on
foreign policy:
Mr.. Madigan:. We'll. where
have the mistakes been made?
Haven't we missed words
endeavoring now to follow the
same pattern of making friends
around the world?"
Mr.. Stevenson: Well, what
question are you asking?"

MANUFACTURER of the Mcdowell
drain collar says the unit saves effort
and man-hours in the operation of
portable irrigation systems. 1t affords
speedy, effective method for draining
lateral lines and relieving back pres
sure. The drain collar makes it easier
to disassemble the laterals at the
hydrant for movement to new positions

collar, maximum drainage of lateral
