Road Version Featuring
Dick And Nik Makes Hit
NEW YORK L'IIi This is
the year (or sixalled "talk
shows" on TV. The three net
works used some of their week
end time to run off a spectacular
pilot film showing the newest talk
show to bemuse their viewers.
This road version of keep talk
ing featured Dick and Nik, better
known as Vice President Richard
Nixon and Soviet Dictator Nikita
Khrushchev respectively, in IB
minutes of absorbing give-and-
take that originated at the Amer
ican Kxhibit's color TV studio in
Moscow
It wasn't exactly the Lincoln
Douglas debate, but it still was
a fascinating human document.
The very thought of these two
important world figures haggling
and exchanging cliches about
their deeply-felt convictions made
for an unprecedented, unforgetta
ble TV show
Diplomatic and political reper
cussions aside, this Dick-Nik TV
show was stimulating, vivid and
filled to the hilt with the immedi
acy of today's history. Surely
Khrushchev, looking like a bur
lesque comic with his panama hut
and groovy hipster handshake,
seemed to be having a ball dur
ing the impromptu powwow. Nix
on, apparently uncertain about
I he propriety of arguing in pub
lic with his host, gamely tried to
get the talk back to the subject
of videotape and television.
Since it appears that Khrush
chev enjoys ad libbing on TV, I'd
like to book him into some fu
ture Groucho Marx Show and let
Groucho handle him. Incidentally,
I don't think it was intentional
but CBS pre-empted a program
called the last word to run off
I he tape on Sunday. As in the
July 19 telecast of Russian and
American track competition, the
inevitable question arises about
the talk show: Who won? I'd say
the winner was the manufacturer
of videotape, who started the
whole thing
Short Shots: Operation -Noah's
Ark on NBC-TV Sunday was an
exciting and beautiful photo
graphed documentary about the
rescuing of wild animals from the
Zambesi River in southern Rho
desia. When it comes to smiling, team
ster Boss James Hoffa makes Ar
thur Murray look like a Liberace.
Or so it seemed when Hoffa ap
peared on CBS-TV's Face the Na
tion. Robert F. Kennedy, chief
counsel to the Senate Rackets
Committee, appearing on NBC's
Meet The Press immediately fol
lowing Hoffa s appearance, said
he believed the CBS panel had
agreed not to ask Hoffa any per
sonal questions. This brouctit
from Ted Ayres. producer of the
CBS-TV show, the following re
joinder: "Ridiculous; there was
no such agreement" Kennedy
also was asked how he felt about
lloffa's threat to sue for libel be
cause of Kennedy's comments on
last Wednesday's Jack Paar
show. Kennedy repeated his com
ments and welcomed Holla s law
suit. And so TV goes, weaving It
self more deeply into the fabric
of our life when it feels like it.
Tht Channel Swim: John Aaron
and Jesse Zousmer have agreed
to continue as independent pro
ducers for CBS and present a new
version of Person to Person start
ing Friday. Oct i. Details of the
new format and the choice of a
new host to replace Edward R.
Marrow will be announced short
ly, their statement said.
Both CBS and NBC are going
ahead with plans for special pro
grams about the 1950's. The NBC
TV program, produced by Hubbell
Robinson, is scheduled for Tues
day. Oct. 6. I .eland llayward's
"The Tiibulous' Fifties" will be
seen on Sunday, Jan. 17 over
CBS-TV.
Richard Diamond, Currently on
CBS-TV Sunday night, moves to
NBC-TV in the fall, replacing
Buckskin on Monday nights. Di
nah Shore's first two shows in the
fall season, on Oct. 4 and 11, will
originate in New York.
ABC-TV's new series, Adven
tures in Paradise, has lined up
guest appearances by Ann Kash
fi, Julie London, and Paulette
Coddard, among others.
$300,000 Fire
At Kirby Mill
KERBY. Ore. (UPI Fire of
undetermined origin swept
through mill "A" of the Cabax
mills here early Sunday, leveling
it. Damage was estimated at
$300,000.
The other half of the Cabax
operation here, mill "B," was un
touched. The blaze broke out at
11:54 p.m. Saturday.
Mill superintendent C. R. Piller
said the flumes apparently spread
from a conveyer under an edger
machine. Exact cause of the fire
was not determined.
A filing room and boiler also
were destroyed in the fire but a
quantity of green lumber was
saved.
A firefighting force which in
cluded the Illinois Valley Rural
Fire Protection Department, State
Fire Patrol members and smoke
jumpers from the Siskiyou Nation
al forest battled the flames.
2,000 DEATHS REPORTED
CAIRO, U.A.R. UPI The
Damascus newspaper Al Jama
hir reported Sunday that "about
2.000 persons" were killed in the
"Kirkuk massacres" in Iraq two
weeks ago when Communist, ele
ments rebelled ne.iinst the ''ami.
eminent. The newspaper said the
aeatn figure came from an of
ficial source" and that the fig
ure was arrived at by a com
mission sent to Kirkuk to study
the causes of the uprising. Pre
vious death toll estimates r.inpoH
from 20 to 500.

BLOSSOM SEEL Y IS BACK
IN THE STAGE SPOTLIGHT
LAS VEGAS, Nev. (IPI --Blossom
Seeley, the toast of Broad
way almost 50 years ago, tfwback
in the spotlight in this desert com
munity stopping the Ed Sullivan
stage show in its tracks. '
With husband Benny Fields.
Blossom belts out three or four
songs in a voice as fresh and
youthful as it was when' she
played the Great White Way in
111.
Oldtimers in the audience at the
plush Desert Inn get misty eyed
as the couple turn on the easy
charm, reminiscing about the
days when "the blues" were new
and they were young.
After the show Benny and Blos
som retire to their room to rest.
"This is something of a come
back for me," Fields said. "I was
laid low by a heart attack a cou
ple of years ago. so we didn't
work much. But Ed Sullivan had
faith in uS and put us In his show
despite my bad heart." .
Blossom, a youthful twinkle in
her eye, patted Benny on the
hand, adding, "the future looks
bright again, but we're not out
after a big; career. , We're just try
ing to earn some money."
"I was nothing until Blossom
came into my life." Benny
grinned. "I was just singing in a
cafe when she happened to catch
my act. Two weeks later 1 was
playing the Palace in New York
with Blossom. That was in 1916."
"My success was almost as sud
den as Benny's." his wife put in.
"I was just a youngster work
ing in burlesque in Los Angeles
when I went to Broadway in 1911
to sing 'The Frisco Toddler' in
'The Henpecks.' It ran two years,
then 1 co-starred with Al Jolson
in "The Whirl of Society." By 1915
I was starring for Ziegfield."
As a musical comedy star Blos
som was perhaps the most famous
beauty of her time. After marry
ing Fields, they worked as a team
until 1936 when Blossom came to
Hollywood to star in two movies.
"I struck out on my own for
a while as a single." Benny said.
"Thats when 1 got tired of being
called "Blossom Seeley's hus
band'." "Weve lived in the Warwick
Hotel in New York since 1936,"
Blossom added. "And wc couldn't
be happier. Our love is the most
beautiful thing in our lives."
Benny nodded agreement.
"Marriage is a 50-50 proposi
tion," he said. "I love her as
much now as 1 did 30 years ago.
And we'll quit at the top, too."
Right now the team headlines
Sullivan's show, and every night
Blossom and Benny draw the
longest cheers from the audience
while Ed, whose smile is as rare
as an igloo in Miami, grins hap
pily from the wings.
