last night.
They were right.
Joe Flynn, last seen work

well with Bishop in q crisply
written sketch revolvin g

quence. Joey Everybody on
the show Is named joey For
man, who works with Mickey

the Alan Funt type. There were
nothing but pros surrounding
Bishop, come to think Of 1t.
An acting comic, Of course,
Mr.. Bishop amt. (Ain't even
close.) He has two expressions,
sour and sourer. This could be
limiting in a lengthy series
and in one scene, when he
chewed out his hrother-in-law,
the mood. dangled dangerously.
He'll probably work into it,
though, worse luck.
We like Mr.. Bishop almost
anywhere in preference to a
filmed series. He's been twice
as funny without writer's on
any Paar show. But at $500 per
appearance, as against the real
loot, the trip to Desiluland
was inevitable.
Mr.. Danny Thomas TV
comedy empire has expanded
into another slot. In case you
have forgotten, Mr.. Thomas
also has a hand in the Real
McCoys and the Andy Griffith

Tractors Committee To Return Unopened All Mail to Contributors

DETROIT R - The Tractors for Freedom Committee have de- cided to return unopened all mail from contributors to the ill-fated project to swap 500 farm tractors for 1,197 Cuban invasion prison CTS.
 Nearly 10000 letters have piled up at the Detroit post office, and most of them are thought to con- tain contributions.
 The committee, which has dis banded, said in a statement:
 Since we could not conclude an agreement with Dr. Fidel Cas- tro, those who have contributed to this cause are entitled to a return of their total contributions to the Post Office Box Freedom in Detroit The only practical method is to have the Post Office return them unopened"
 The committee was headed by Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt, honorary chairman, Walter P. Reuther, and Dr. Milton s. Eisenhower, and Joseph M Dodge.
 Mrs. Roosevelt had suggested that each contribution be return ed with a note of thanks and an explanation why the deal with Cuban Premier Castro did not come off.
 But the committee decided it would be unnecessarily compli- cated and costly to reply to each donor individually.
