Take Tuesday night's NBC-TV special, A Toast to Jerome Kern. The writer-producer. Bob wells, hired a brigade of singers and dunceri to bat out the tunes by Kern for abovt 90-mlnutes. Re sults: pleasant listening 'most of the time) and attractive viewing 'most of the timei. My qualified praise is due to lapses such as a raucously up tempo and tasteless version ot Yesterdays", the toothy inept- ness of host Bob Cummings and some attempts at jokes that -were, to say the least, superfluous in a show of this sort. Highlights were dances by Bam- bi Linn and her new partner, Klly Brown, to "Poor Pierrot" and "All the Things You Are". And an exciting choreographed 1 Won't Dance." Another pet bit was a 15-year-old film clip of a Gene Kelly ballet from "Cover Girl." It held its own and then some, with the current dances. I was sorry that somehow, a picture of Jerome Kern wasn't shown on camera. 1 along with about a minute's explanation of his life, his work, etc. Since this was a toast to his memory, some background would have given the show a more meaningful, intimate spirit.' : " 1 watched only half of ABC-TV's new hour-long Western, Bronco because I wanted to be on hand for all of the Dennis O'Keefe show on CBS-TV. See what TV reviewers go through at this time of year; how we are continually being torn be tween first one treasure and then another? 1 " What I saw of Bronco, which stars Ty Hardin, came as a sur prise. I'm not referring to my surprise to watching some of the worst acting and directing ever seen on TV, but of the opening scene. Hardin appeared- in a row- boat yes, a rowboat off the California coast after a ship-' wreck. Now, that's the most west ern a Western can ever get. The half I saw seemed to be imita tive of the Maverick style, but Hardin & Co., were way off course. Incidentally, my reference to "worst acting" applies to sup porting players who shall be nameless not to Hardin, who seemed embarrassed by if all, too. The O'Keefe show's problems seem to be that the writers aren't bothering to write real jokes. They must figure the laughter is always there pre-recorded, yoti know so why waste time dream ing up gags to go with it? ' The play is a newspaper col umnist 'for realism, he's a jerk and a madcap) and Tuesday night he had to escort a teen-age girl to night clubs. O'Keefe matched the fatigued characteri zations and dreary dialogue with a comedy style that consisted of bugging his eyes, wrinkling his brow and pursing his lips (some times simultaneously!. But my, how he gets laughs on that sound track. ' The Channel Swim: Art Car ney's appearance in "Our Town" has been advanced to Friday, Nov. 13 on NBC-TV Instead of Jan. 8, which means his originally scheduled November special, "The Man in the Dog Suit." Is being postponed Indefinitely. Arthur Godfrey, noting the good reviews his first CBS-TV special received last week, told a New York audience on Tuesday, "You will never again see me on the TV screen unless I've rehearsed, rehearsed, rehearsed. . .' A series based an U.S. Immi gration Service filea, Port of En try, is being financed by NBC-TV. Desi Arnaz, who plays a dramatic role in the Desilu Playhouse pro duction, "So Tender, So Profane," on CBS-TV this season, has signed Margo and Pedro Armendarez in co-starring roles. Perry Como will have John Payne, Dorothy Collins, German singer Ivo Robic, on his second Wednesday night show for NBC-TV on Oct, 1.. Add to the star-studded guest roster for NBC TV's Oct. 25 "Tribute to Eleanor Roosevelt on her Diamond Jubi lee" now, there's a title t : Har ry S. Truman, Helen Hayes, Ed die Cantor and the New York Philharmonic. Obsarvar, La Grande, Ore., Wod., Sept. 23, IV5ff Page 6 Side Glances is 14 I ( i . AV 1V I'M T M U I. OH. C twit br MA .

Rich ard Neuberger (D-Ore.) has noti fied local officials that a so-called "radioactive" barrel which drifted onto a beach near Port Orford July 4 has been traced to a prank by sailors on a Navy ship. Neuberger said he was told by R. E. Hollingsworth of the Atomic Energy Commission that the bar rel apparently was taken from a dock in San Francisco, . labeled dangerous . by pranksters' a a d dumped overboard from a Navy picket ship at sea oft Port Orford. The barrel was marked "radio active, waste, AEC, dangerous." The discovery came at the start of the town s July 4th celebration. It was found there was no radio activity. Hollingsworth told Neuberger In a letter that "we were unable to determine the identity ot the per son or persons who were re sponsible for this incident which appears to us to hav been the result of a prank.

" 5 30 Mickey Mouse Out Song Shop S:4S NHC Vewa By VERNON SCOTT UPI Staff Writer HOLLYWOOD ' (UPli-Vincent Price, who surrounds himself with great works of art, is making a living acting in movies best de scribed as great works of junk. In the past few years Price has starred in such goodies as "The Fly." "The Return of the Fly," House on Haunted Hill ' and 'The Bat." All were third-rate horror pictures. They all made money, , is Price's simple explanation. I'd prefer to make more artis tic, important pictures. Who wouldn't? But in a period where few people go to see movies at all, it's good to be appearing in films that are well attended. Too many producers make movies for one another saying, Isn't this a great, significant pic ture?' Maybe so, but they are the only ones who see them. Entertaining Films "And the critics make me ang ry when they say my pictures aren't artistic successes. They're not made to be great just entertaining." Actually, Price leads a double life. Almost half his time is spent touring the country on lecture tours. He admits being the highest-paid lecturer in the United States topping Eleanor Roosevelt and President Carlos Romulo of the Philippines. I earn more money making horror movies," he said. "My two yearly yours cover almost every state in the union. I leave this week for 55 dates in 60 days, lec turing on 'Free American artist James Whistler and Tennessee Williams. . ' " "You might say lecturing is my avocation. No one can make a liv ing at lecturing alone. The fact This lea it made up from Information by Television Station and its accuracy cannot be auarantead by the La Grand Obsarvar. that I'm an actor places me in demand." Paintings Ot Unknowns Price's Beverly Hills home ft jammed with some 500 works of art, mainly paintings by unknown artists and pre-Columbian arti facts. "I specialiie in American art because I'm sick of snobs who think all art originates In Eu rope," he said. "And I have no pretentions about art. I simply like those things that I know best." This was a subtle plug for Vin cent's new book on art, "I Like What I Know," which goes on sale later this month. "When I'm out on tour nobody ever questions me about my mov ies," Price laughed. "But starring in horror pictures requires more acting tiian other varieties. "They're fun to make. But you have to be super-serious to pre vent them from being funny. If you go one step beyond, you get laughs in the wrong place.
