WllllXM EWALD SAYS:
It Is Time To Rally
Round The Flag, Boys
be back at work on the series in
By WILLIAM EWALD
UPI Start Wrlttr
NEW YORK it'l'li It is time
to rally round the flag. boys. The
network schedules for the coming
season are ready (or posting and
there's still no niche for Omnibus.
I have a sneaking suspicion
that there is something wrong
with a TV system that can't af
ford to carry Its best its week
ly Sid Caesars, its See It Nows
and its Omnibuses. (Or is it Om
nibii. There are all sorts of con
fections in prime time for the
meanderthal set, but except for
an occasional spectacular or Play
house 90, there is little program
ming of substance In prime time.
NBC-TV has carried Omnibus
the past two seasons and last sea
son, dropped a reported $625,000
on the show. There has been
much talk of "Omnibus-type"
shows for next season on the net
work, but it seems to me this
misses the point.
I'm not even quite sure what
an Omnibus-type how is. One of
the chief virtues of Omnibus is
its' avoidance of type. Over its
past seven seasons, for example,
Omnibus has investigated such di
verse matters as football, Les
Paul and Mary Ford, Frank
Lloyd Wright, the biography of a
fisb, a Bchcme, Benny Good
man, Grandma Moses, eapital
punishment, Sam Johnson, Dylan
Thomas, minor league baseball,
Winslow Homer, the yiolin, Jona
than Winters, the Kabuki Danc
ers, the Harlem Globetrotters,
James Thurber and the Yugoslav
Folk Ballet.
It has gone up in the air with
Amelia Earhart and down in the
water with Jacques-Yves Cou
stcau. It has tackled Shaw, Shake
speare and She Stoops to Con
quer. It has provided work for
such relative unknowns as Jim
my Dean, Joanne Woodward,
John Cassavetes, Sal Minco and
Janis Rule. It expanded the per
forming career of Leonard Bern
stein and Joseph Welch. '
From this list, something obvi
ous should emerge. It is this:
Omnibus is important not only
for what It does, but because it's
the last shooting match around
which tries to experiment. It is
a germinal show, a seedbed, a
seminal effort from which the
rest of TV can draw.
The Channtl Swim: ABC-TV
will kill off its new hour musical
show, Music For A Summer
Night, after the Aug. 19 telecast.
It'll be replaced by two filmed
shows. The Big Picture and the
Court Of Last Resort.
"Lucy Goes to Janan" Is the ti
tle of the November CBS-TV Lucy
Desi special. CBS-TV is firming
up plans for a half hour chat with
English philosopher Bertrand
Russell which will be presented
next fall as a Sunday special.
Koger Smith, co-star of ABC-
TVs 77 Sunset Strip, expects to
two weeks Smith suffered a
brain concussion from a fall in
his home about six weeks ago.
NBC-TV signed Chico Marx to a
three year contract which calls
for Marx to caier in five shows
a year.

to chief Nathan Heath of Warm
Springs.

General Motors Earnings May
Up Car Producers Income
NEW YORK (UPI) General
Motors Corp. earnings for the
first half of 1959 to be published
on Thursday are expected to lift
net income for the nation's five
automobile producers to a billion
dollars
Earnings of the first four com
panies to report tor tne nan
year Ford, Chrysler, American,
and Studebaker Packard
amounted to $404,861,075. This
total compared with a net loss
of $13,079,484 in the first half of
1958. .
To brine the net for the- five
producers up to one billion' dol
lars, the General Motors report
must show net income of $595,-
138,925 or $2.06 a share on the
common stock, wall street ex
perts believe that easily will be
attained.
The GM total would compare
with $334,514,236 or $1.17 a, share
in the first half of 1958. "
If GM attains this figure the
five companies will show one
billion net against $321,434,782 for
the first half last year, a rise of
208 per cent.
m Sales Way Up
General Motors first half sales
are estimated at $6,599,000,000,
against $3,031,261,000 " last year.
The four companies reporting to
date had a sales aggregate of
$5,190,560,000 for the first half.
against $3,372,988,000 in 1958.
Adding the General Motors es
timated sales, the total would
amount to $11,690,560,000, against
$8,404,249,000 'in 1958. a rise of
39 per cent.
Ford's first half amounted to
$5.22 a share, against 29 cents
in 1958. Chrysler's was $6.65 a
shard, against a net loss of
$25.5 million. American's works
out at $4.80 against $1.73. Stude
baker s is $1.87 against a net loss
of $13.3 million.
For this picture, American
Motors earnings have been work-
port made the other- day was for
the first nine months of its fiscal
year. That period showed sales
of $688,787,216 and net income of
$49,599,962 or $8.36 a share. These
figures compared with $358,518,
676. $14,583,416 and $2.61 a share
for the 1958 period respectively.
Big First Half
It was a giant first half all
around. The third quarter isn't
going to be as big, say the auto
mobile makers. And their ex
penses will be higher because
they will include new tools to
turn out new compact cars that
are expected to give the foreign
ers a run for their money.
The fourth quarter should be a
big one, say the experts. The
year 1959 will see big earnings
totals, other things being equal
and the steel strike kept' within
reasonable limits. It is expected
the total output will cross six
million units.
Foreign producers aren't apt
to take the inroads of the big
three into compact cars lying
down. They already are whoop
ing up refinements to capture
more American sales.
Renault of France has a new
gimmick to get the U.S. business
a front engine, front wheel
drive light truck. . This rounds
out its line wty'ch includes the '
1CV and Dauphine passenger
cars and the new Caravelle
sports car. ''
