NEW YORK,-If you're tired
of looking at routine TV west
erns and family dramas. there's
good news ahead.
Starting in the fall, says NBC
.writer-producer Robert Alar
Aurthur, a new kind of adult
dramatic fare will be offered
1t will be called Sunday Show
case"
Drama on television has
taken on such a tired look that
we've decided to do something
about it," he said. THE public
is sick of formula dramas. all in
the same fixed packages with
love finally conquering all. Fol
that tired look we want to sup
ply a new look"
Aurthur, who will produce
the hour-long, archaeological
series, said he's interested in
new writer's who have q fresh
original point of view about
people and problems.
1.-The writer's will have more
freedom to say what they want
to say" he added. And I'll
work right along with them tc
see that they get that freedom.
We want to go way beyond
those stale personal conflicts
so familiar to the public"
= i
One realm to be explored is
science fiction. One play in the
works is about the world OF to-
morrow, featuring androlds
Synthetic humans. In klrd
of symbolism these anoroids
will illustrate the problems be-
setting actual humans.
There is a psychological
drama, people Kill People
Sometimes" in which a woman
shoots her husband whom she
supposedly mistakes for a
prowler. But subconsciously she
wanted to kill him because he
had threatened to leave her.
And no one. not even the TV
viewer, will be quite sure
whether she is really guilty
or not.
I'VE want to do plays that
will make people think while
they're being entertained"
Arthur said.
Right now we are consider
ing a drama based on the tragic
experience of Margaret Bourke-
White. the world-famous Life
magazine photographer who
was stricken with Parkinson's
disease. Another idea we have
in mind is a play based on the
case of Sacco and Vanzetti, the
two men whose execution was
questioned by millions of
people.

Omnibus Dies,
Person Saved
By CHARLES MERCER
Associated Press Writer

NEW YORK.-A veteran
televiSion program died last
week and another veteran show
was reborn.
Omnibus" will not return to
NBC-TV-or any other net
work-in the new season. The
reason: An advertiser could not
be found to sponsor it.
Bemoaning the increasing
trend of advertisers to pitch
their sponsorship to the So
called mass audience with
filmed Western and adventure
series won't bring back "Omni-
bus" But it's worth remember
ing these things about the pro-
gram produced by Robert Sau-
dek Associates:
Omnibus" lasted seven
years, at various times on each
of the three networks. It's
generally agreed that it en-
joyed its best season last year,
with it's audience % per cent
larger than in the previous
season. 1t had collected rs
national awards for its imag-
NATIVE, distinguished work.
= = 4 4
1t was touch and go for
awhile as to whether Person
to Person" would return to
the air on CBS-TV after Ed
ward r. Murrow decided to
take a years sabbatical. Now
it definitely will return in the
fall, with sponsorship assured,
and Charles Collingwood serv-
ing as interviewer.
Producers John Aaron and
lessee Zousmer have some new
plans for the show, which they
have not yet disclosed in de-
tail. But it appears certain
that the program will go
abroad with tape for some of
its guests. Example: The Duke
and DucheS of Windsor, who
were interviewed on the show
from their New York apart
ment, repeatedly have extended
a standing invitation to the
program to visit them at their
French country home.

oENEvA-More important
Than The Horsepower con-
Nrence Il another internal
tlonal proceeding which has
been going on here for ak
months and which concerns
far more directly the future
peace Of the world. IT'S the
long-drawn-out but fateful
conference between the So
Wet Union and the West over
the question Of whether the
testing OF nuclear weapons
shall be permanently pro-
hibited BY = treaty signed BY
all nations.
On It's face, this means
merely stopping the tests, but
actually IL means more---sib-
aequent pressure TO ban the
use OF nuclear weapons al
together In time Of war.
The sessions on nuclear
tests are for the moment In

ferences 70 be going on stimuli

ministers cannot possibly give

speed toward agreement on

posed treaty as possible. The

are the big ones and will re-
ceive the most careful scru-
tiny later on, with the
chances Of an agreement
within many months being
anybody's guess.
Back Of all this, however,
Is one big and all-pervasive
question. Why do the Soviets
want an agreement at all?
Are they merely exhibiting
that humaneness Of spirit
which has been so con-
spicuously absent In their
attitude toward other inter-
national problems? Are they
worried about the possible
acquisition Of new weapons
by Red China and other ma
lions? II the Soviets already

ARE they Is damaging as
has been claimed2
The most reliable informa-

For the expert scientists on
the Allied side do not agree.
You can ind some who say
that any "fall-out" Is dan

II may be dangerous ten or
Q hundred years from now.
and still others who say
there Is far more danger from
natural radioactivity that has
nothing 10 do with nuclear
tests.
But granting that tests are
mildly injurious-and the
Soviets have been responsible
for initiating the worldwide
alarm about tests. aided and
abetted By some Communist
stooges In the scientific field
In nearly every countryside
question remains as to what
the Soviets hope to gain BY
the proposed ban. The real
answer probably IL that the
Soviets feel they have enough
weapons now to devastate
any enemy country, and they
are well aware that the
United States has three times
more than would be neces-
sary to destroy all Of the
Soviet Union. It becomes
urgent, therefore. TO keep any
other nations. especially the
irresponsible ones. from
getting nuclear weapons.
Can the information be
kept secret? There Is reason
to believe It can be. It Is
significant that the Soviets
do not send as much nuclear
data to their own satellites
