One of the interested parties
in the George Maharis- Route So

features Maharis, along with
Ruth Gordon, Celeste Holm and
Ernest Truck, in a tapped pro-

premiere offering of a new one
hour play series, Command Per-

to syndicate as a showcase for
such writer's as Albee, Brecht,

Congressman Rogers seems
like one of the Houses busiest
and possibly most inconsistent
legislators-until you realize
that there could be several Of
them. For example: Walter
Rogers, Democrat Of Texas,
chairman Of the recent Com
munications Subcommittee
hearing, who authored legisla-
ton to prohibit the FEC from
making any rules on CONNER
Gals. If anybody has such
power, Walter Rogers believes
It is the Congress, not the FEC.
On the other hand, there's
Paul G. Rogers, no relation,
Democrat of Florida, who got
I'D in the House the other day to
attack the TV induStry'S cOntin-
ued reliance on broadcast rat
ing services. Said Paul:
This frantic reaction from
the industry to the same type
ratings as reUealed in the hear
inos is rapidly pointing to the
need for action in the ptLbltc's
interest 1t is past time for
this industry to get out Of the
numbers racket so that tele-
piston programs matched by
the American people are not
artiticially diStored."
Paul Rogers helped inveSti-
gate the rating services six
months ago; it's refreshing to
discover an excellent memory.
Professional Reaction: Mar
ion Chace, dance therapiSt at
st. Elizabeths, was also terribly
impressed by the drama about
the schizophrenic child on The

How can a therapist survive

of each slow accomplishment. "

Suntu Rescued,
But Children
Get His Toybuq

BALTIMORE. Nov. % (AP) .
They rescued Santa Claus
yesterday, but his bag of toys
is gone forever.
The whole thing started
when a mob Of some 100
screaming, shouting children
surrounded the float carrying
Santa as it came to a halt
following the gath annual toy
town parade sponsored by a
local department store.
With a deafening chorus Of
Santa" the children raised
200 outstretched arms toward
the bright red bag with toys
dangling enticingly from it.
A department store worker.
Robert Moore, nUdged his sta
ton wagon through the mob,
signaled Santa to toss him the
toy bag and get in.
Santa managed to scramble
to safety into the sation wagon,
but before Mr.. Moore could dc
the same. the toy bag had dis
appeared in a screaming vortex
Of children.
Store officials said only about
$40 worth Of toys was involved
The bag was stuffed mainly
with paper.

Portraits Of Kennedy

An ingenious teletype portrait
Of the late President Kennedy
has been making the rounds on
police wires this week in the
Washington Metropolitan Area.
Nobody seems to know where
the portrait originated, but it
reveals hours Of painstaking
work by an anonymous artist. "
The portrait apparently came
into the Washington area
Wednesday when the Weather
Bureau at Friendship Airport
received it by teletype.
1T could have come from
anywhere in the country" said
William Conlon, a meteorolo-
gist. He explained that the
bureau receives transmissions
from several teletype circuits
across the United States.
1--WE tried to track it down"
Mr.. Conlon said, but couldn't
find out"
He added that Government
rules forbid transmisSions of
this type because they take up
time and space on heavily used
circuits.
However, he explained that
when the weather is good, tele-
type traffic is lighter and you
have time on the wire to get
it through"
The portrait was sent from
Friendship to Maryland State
