The most curious aspect of t whole bust ness, however, is the sponsor's angle. When I - look at repeat shows, 1 set the feeling the com pany backing the show Is a dull, uncreatlve outfit' whose product soap, ? cigarettes, autos is just about' like everyone else's. I feel an extreme unexcitement for:.'a sponsor sleepy enough to' pitch 'a dreary-' ferun at me. . ' Backing a TV show Is 'an'ek pensive proposition, "but there's no reason why' ; the networks 'and sponsors can't slice budgets 'and, experiment with .-new comics,; singers, writers 'and with young actors In semi-proples's plays.' . iTIicre are dotens'of folk song and jat.i and 'opera festivals in this nation' during the summer. There are Shakespeare festivals at Stralford, Conn., and Cam bridge, Mass.

Esqtiire 'Flogs7 Hagerty But Whip Xieeps Breaking ,' WASHINGTON (UPI) Back stairs at: the .White House: Jim Hagerty, President Eisen hower's press secretary, may end up -as a . deep-dyed villain of this administration if he continues to attrack -the attention of . passing magazine .writers ! whose know ledge of the . White House . tends to be third or' fourth hand. ; . . ; Jirn .currently is a pretty, dan gerous fellow in Esquire magazine. Esquire, flogs old Jim with vigor, but Us whip, seems to break re peatedly. Without doubt, Hagerty has .his faults and drawbacks but the magMinc makes the whole thing, a bit ridiculous by calling him "dangerous.". r ; - . Hagerty may be annoying, and, at times; officious, but, hardly dangerous. There have been occa sions when he threw aH sorts of roadblocks between reporters and some fairly high members of the White 'House staff. But , at , heart, Jimi kncwt tactics Mike .this were bound to lose In the long run. 1 Esquire tells about "a top Wash ington analyst'.' -presumably news and hot psychiatric. .'who tried manfully for a, moitth during the 19S8 recession to get to see White House officials -who were map ping the' administration's' economic moves, poor fellow,' according to the magazine, ran afoul of a black and evil wall of silence Hagerty threw around his staff. 'REDS DETAIN dlt BERLIN UPI) Three Ameri can soldiers drove into East Ger many illegally and were held tem porarily by Communist authorities the East German news service ADN reported Monday night. The agency said' the soldiers, two sergeants and a corporal, were turned over to West German bor der "police after "checking of cir cumstances." . . ' i ; This is in truth a sad talc: This "top analyst" must have been a real sufferer because during the recession, the key economic offi cials on the. White House staff held literally, hundreds of. interviews and background - briefings for re porters, who came in individually and in groups without so. much as nodding to Hagerty. . '. ; -' Esquire claims its piece about Hagerty is the "(op untold story out of Washington." It may be right. I-, t- '., ,' . For example, it rips aside the curtain of secrecy . covering a clever Hagerty .maneuver of keep ing reporters around him - happy by making sure that typewriters and , telephones are available" when the President is on the road. We don't know how Esquire does it, but most professional newspa permen carry their own typewrit ers and can manage finding their own telephones. Disappointing but true this is the way White House reporters have to struggle -along, too; carrying their own typewriters,- getting their own telephones. Magazine: , "Hngerty , has . consistently-refused to give put the names of the President's guests at White House stag dinners." ,-. ,.. Facts:- -Complete - stag dinner lists, sometimes two a week, were Issued for the, better part of two social seasons covering more than a year. Publication of the names brought so. .much pressure on the White House from unabashed American males who wanted to be invited, too, that Hagerty stopped issuing the lists. " :. (Esquire's writer may be too young to know that Presidents Roosevelt and Truman had scads of stag dinners without ever dis closing the simple fact the events were held, much less - releasing names of the guests.)
