TV

By MIKE BOOM
Although the show has been on
the air for three weeks, we didn't
get around to viewing CBS's high-
ly-touted "Amos 'N' Andy" until
last Thursday night.
A huge press release extolling
the program showed TV column-
ists across the nation united in
their praise, and Thursday night
we became a member of the clan.
"Amos 'N' Andy" have long pro-
vided a treat for radio listeners'
ears, but the television version
gives the eyes a great deal of en-
joyment, too.
The radio scripts are easily and
hilariously adapted to TV, as
shown by Thursday's episode deal-
ing, with Kingf ish's attempt to
steal a rare nickel from unsuspect-
ing Andy.
The four-year search for a
cast has paid off handsomely,
for they are the exact images of
the radio characterizations.
The situation comedy and dia-
logue seems fresh on the new
medium, and even the kinescoping
is of top quality. Take a look any
Thursday at 7:30 p.m. on Chan-
nel 2.
* * *
AT 5:00 THIS afternoon, a
timely discussion on Korea will
take place on "Mrs. Roosevelt
Meets the Public." Senators Paul
H. Douglas (D., Ill.) and Harry P.
Cain (R., Wash.) will take oppos-
ing views on the program to be
seen on Channel 4.
NBC has come out with two new
mystery dramas, when it appears
to us that there are already too
many of this type being produced.
"Assignment: Manhunt" on Sat-
urdays at 9:30 p.m. and "The Door
With No Name" on Fridays at 8:00
p.m. are the new Channel 4 of-
ferings.
OSCAR LEVANT got the "hook"
from CBS after two weeks as an
insulting host on "Guest House,"
seen on Sundays at 8:00 p.m. on
Channel 2. Durward Kirby re-
ceived a promotion from the net-
work to be the new MC. He's a
personable fellow who should rise
to new heights (besides his own
6'3").
CBS seems determined to
flood the TV and radio scenes
with the tear-jerking quiz show,
"Strike It Rich." They now
have the show scheduled for a
half-hour each Wednesday night
and a half-hour each week-day
morning on TV, with another
half-hour every day on radio.
The show has people with sad
problems as contestants. Forin-
stance, on one show last week
there appeared a little girl who
had lost her dog, a young man
who needed an operation, and a
mother who wanted to erect a
memorial to her son who was
killed in Korea. It's too much to
sit through much of this and have
a happy day.

IFS, ANDS, BUTS:
Experts Say UMTBil
Loaded with Difficulties
By The world Staff of The Associated Press
WASHINGTON-The President's five-man Universal Military
Trainng Commission says it probably will send Congress its plan for
a national security training corps in September.
When UMT finally will go into effect no one knows.
First, Congress must okay it-and UMT will be dynamite with an
election year coming up.
But that may be nothing compared to the merry-go-round of ifs,
ands and buts that UMT must ride after that.
UNDER THE Universal Military Training and Service Law, Con-
gress or the President must reduce the terms of service for draftees
under 19 to six months.
Yet this will be impossible if the armed forces are to be kept at
3,500,000 men.
Defense officials have said armed strength could be reduced-
if a well organized and well trained reserve could be called up
at short notice.
But there can't be any such beefed-up reserve until UMT goes in-
to effect and starts shunting train-
ed men into reserve units. c, :::::><:: ;;<;:<::
And UMT can't go into effect
until world conditions permit a IMPORTED
gamble on reducing the size of the
armed forces. fn
Which comes right back to the ( India Prints
problem of cutting service for un- Suitable for beda

summer plays.1
Translated by Maurice Valency,
"The Enchanted" is a witty, hu-
morous fantasy about a young
French schoolteacher named Isa-
bel who believes she can converse
with a ghost.
PLAYED BY Dorothy Gutekunst,
Grad., Isabel hopes that through
the ghost, played by Ted Heusel,
Grad., she may be able to rid the
community of many of its evils.
The story develops in a fas-
cinating manner when Isabel
falls in love with the handsome
Supervisor of Weights and Mea-
Dean Counsels
On Air Rdates
Prof. Herbert F. Taggart, Ass't.
Dean of the business administra-
tion school is flying to Washington
tomorrow to testify before a Con-
gressional subcommittee.
Dean Taggart, a noted authority
on cost accounting, has been call-
ed to give his opinion on a pro-
posed bill dealing with Air Mail
rates. The bill would make it ne-
cessary to determine the exact
cost of air mail service.
"Such a thing just couldn't be
done," Dean Taggart asserted.
"Planes carry other freight and
passengers as well as mail, and
you can't determine the exact cost
of any one of these items. It's a
technical impossibilty."
Talpy Wins Fulbright
For Study in France
Thomas Talpy, a University stu-
dent working on his doctorate in
electrical engineering, has been
awarded a Fulbright Scholarship.
Talpy will go to France in the
fall to study at the University of
