The retread selected by the CBS-TV drama show was a Sum ner Locke Elliott piece. "Wish On The Moon." last seen on TV back in 1953. That original starred Eva Marie Saint and Phyllis Kirk, two ladies who have since gone on to headier projects. Wednesday night's offered Peggy Ann Garner and Erin O'Brien, two ladies who may go on to headier things, but not on the strength of Wednesday night's outing "Wish On The Moon" is not a very sturdy vehicle or original one. It deals with two young girls one questing for a career, the other for a -husband whose paths cross and who wind up clutching each other's dreams. It is a predictable little excursion which takes the path of least re sistance in its dramatic course, is stuffed with cardboard characters and sapless talk. Conceivably, two strong lead players could make the proceed ings bearable but Wednesday night Miss O'Brien kept the hour anchored in the slush. Miss O'Brien is a pretty slice of cake,' but her knowledge of the acting trade is weak. Her lacks made things difficult for Miss Garner, a capable actress, who was un able to bounce her part off her teammate. As a result, the hour sagged amateurishly. In minor parts. Biff McGuire and William Gaxton dodged in and out of the action with rather embarrassed circumspection. In a minor minor part, Gerald Hiken as a cukey boy director was beau tifully obnoxious. Short Shots: Mrs. Patricia Mc Carthy, a 30-year-old housewife who was forced to withdraw tem porarily as a contestant from NBC-TV's Tie Tac Dough this week, gave birth Wednesday to a six pound, nine ounce girt. ABC TV's Music For A Summer Night has loosened up its stiff bones considerably since the start of the summer season and Wednesday night's episode was an agreeable clambake. For social historians: Wednesday night a lady won a St. Bernard dog complete with brandy flask on NBC-TV's The Price Is Right NBC-TV's Jack Paar ticked off his second anniversary Wednes day night with a disappointingly so-so show. Dody Goodman, mak ing a return visit, contributed a memorable addition to the list of TV's boo-boos when she tripped over the phrase "butter makes a wetter batter" and wound up with something moderately unprinta ble. The Channel Swim: CBS-TV is Power Project Coordination Is Sought WASHINGTON UPIi Wit nesses from the Pacific Northwest testified before the Senate Inter state and Foreign Commerce Committee Tuesday and urged members to approve legislation which would coordinate all power projects in the Columbia River Basin. The legislation provides for vol untary coordinating agreements, which, when approved by the Federal Power Commission, would obligate payments and establish annual charges for downstream benefits. Proponents of the measures contend each comprehensive use of projects would result in an in crease of between sno.nno and one million kilowatts of firm power without additional capital invest mcnt. Fishing Boat Found Drifting Without Crew MONTEREY, Calif. UPI A 50-foot Seattle fishing boat was found drifting aimlessly off the coast near here Tuesday with its two crewmen missing. A Coast Guard spokesman in San Francisco said the boat. Am ple II, was discovered by other fishing vessels. The cutter Gresh am towed the boat here after finding no life aboard. The spokesman said the boat's nets were out but there was no indication of what happened to the two men who had been aboard. The missing men were identified as A. G. Graseahl. own er of the boat, and crewman Fred Anderson. The Ample II was last heard from Monday afternoon. The spokesman said there was no evidence that the missing men had fallen overboard. However he said it was possible one of the men fell overboard in Tuesday's rough sea and the other was lost in an attempt to save him.

No Problem For Salmon ' Army Claims PORTLAND i 111 i ine liw- foot head of Washington s Ice Harbor dam is the steepest of any other dam on the Columbia river but the Arrpy Corps of Engineers feels migrating salmon should pass over it with the greatest of ease. The corps- made the prediction on the basis of steep ladder tests during the last three years con ducted at tlie Bonneville dam lab oratory by the V. S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The fish in the tests showed a minimum of fatigue in climbing the steeper fishway. . On the north side of Ice Har bor's 100 -foot head, the fishway will ascend one foot for every 10 feet of length as compared with the normal ratio of one for 16. Because the new fish ladder is steeper, it also is shorter and will save the corps at least $500,000 in construction costs. At other Columbia river dams, migrant fish climb 66 feet at Bon neville. 88 feet at The Dalles and when John Day dam is finished, the climb will be 95 feet, still five feet short of the uphill pull at Ice Harbor. The Ice Harlwr ladder experi ment is the first of its kind, the corps said. The dam is due for completion in 12.
