His opening show (CBS-TV, Fri- days, 8:30 p m., r.ui) was not the best that Gleason's fans should be able to expect this sea ron. chiefly because of script dif ficulties. The Gleason girls are as pretty as always. Ray Bloch's orchestra is as smooth as ever, and Buddy Hacketl. the new second banana of the show, holds the promise of winning laughs. Although Gleason and Hackett did not exactly come to grief in the opening Reggie Van Gleason Skit, they tried in vain (o win much laughter from a script that had Reggie being investigated by a congressional committee. The writers' attempt in this one vas as broad as the Sahara and about as arid. As Fenwick Babbitt, however.

Helicopter To Seed High Highway Cut Near Myrtle Creek Something new in the way of roadside seeding will be seen fh Douglas County when a helicopter spreads liquid fertilizer and grass seed over a high, ateep highway cut just north of Myrtle Creek. The planting job will rover ap proximately IS acres of ground which is nearly standing on end. The bank to be seeded to prevent erosion stretches some 4.000 feet and ranges up to 240 feet in height. The work will be done by a con tractor. Dean Johnson. Ink., of Me Minnville, with a Hiller helicop ter. The 'copter will be brought to Myrtle Creek after a similar job is completed 12 miles north of Brookings on a 200-acre slide area. There, 5,000 gallons of liquid fer tilizer and three tons of grass seed will be spread. The area to be seeded on the coast is part of the 27. S mile High way 101 relocation project between Gold Beach and Brookings. Con struction is being carried out in the midst of a section that slid away when undermined and erod ed by heavy rains last winter, sending hundreds of thousands of cubic yards of earth into the ocean. The surface is" still too rough for regular ground vehicles although it has been graded and drained by diversion ditches and pipelines. It will be sowed with a special mix ture of grasses which the Highway Commission hopes will form a soil holding turf before the heavy win ter rains start. The liquid fertilizer will give the seed mixture I boost to speed up growth.
