Hut it didn't work out that way The '.W-mimite (US-TV pro-Jiic lif.n put trKi-'ther somp engaging pirsonulities to tell tli? story of St. Mary's parochial school, its Coublcs with a m-iKhbnrinq mill! onairc and its faith in itself and pi aye". The troubles were many '1 he millionaire, played by Charles Hughes, was a hypo chondriac who wanted the school iat'J for a parking lot; Sister r.ened'ct, played hy t'laudette Col bert, developed tuberculosis; Pat- bert. developed tuberculosis; Pat sy had family troubles; Eddie couldn't fight: the school was falling apart aid, in the idiom of the day, one student took a dive on a quiz. Enough trouble he-e to last through a full 36-episode se ries, I'd say. Because a play of this sort sug ar-ccats life, the troubles, though many, were really superficial l-.ven the tuberculosis was a very mild case. Prognosis: excellent. And the millionaire really had a heart of gold. Since his new of fice building was noticeably lack ing in traffic, it was no surprise when he donated it to the parish NEWS CHUCKLES United Prs International THE DRAFT DODGER SYKACUSE. .Sicily L'PH For the second time in three yen s, the Italian army sent a draft notice Tuesday to Carmelo ( eleste, aged six. SUBJECT TO ARGUMENT WAKSAW I UPI I The official Communist newspaper Trybuna l.iiilu 'rues-day asked that lelevi vision sets, taped music or juke baxes be installed in Poland's coffee houses. It would be better to install record players," the newspaper said, "thaa to listen to the bad musician who plays the piano once an hour." RUN DON'T WALK BANDJAItMASIM," Borneo (UPI I Djuhdi Kusomi, 19, who just completed a two-year walk ing tour through Indonesia, told newsmen the biggest problem during his trek was girls. "So many girls kept falling in love with me," the youth said," "I was worried how I could re turn their love while on the trip." SMALL, SMALL WORLD U.IAKAHTA i UPI I An In do'iesian newspaper, noting re p: its from Singapore that the government there is .planning to force husbands to turn over their salaries to their wives, said this would not mean much here. "In Indonesia," the paper said, "the husband's pay envelope too oflen contains only loan tickets. coffee checks and cigaret re ceipts." for a new school The most genuine performance oi . tne night was turned m oy Marc Connolly, as Dr.' McKay He had an honest, natural ap proai'h while Iho masterful brow wrinkler, Kobert Preston and Miss Colbert was fine in a scene to outdo each other. . . However, Miss Colbert was fine in a scene that had her boxing nnd. later, when she learned of her illness. Otherwise, she was, well Clau dette Colbert, complete with su perfluous hand-waving. Preston s role called for complete, believa ble warm-hand ingenuity. He came over with excessive stiff ness. The labored mechanics of this story have been rendered obsolete by time and I thought the funda mental message dealing with faith rewarded could have been twice as effective if half of the underdeveloped sub-plots were discarded. I saw only the last half of Art Linkletter's NBC-TV Startime spe cial Tuesday night the one in which Linkletter the TV personal ity plugged a new book by Link letter the author, which was pub lished by a firm that Linkletter the businessman is a partner in. So far as is known. Linkletter doesn't own the automobile firm that sponsored him. The inter views with children appeared to have a carefully rehearsed air of unrehearsed behavior about them. The interview with Mrs: Hannah Nixon and hef son. Vice President Richard Nixon, didn't belong on this show. Th Channel Swim: Ralph Ed wards brings his NBC TV Wednesday night show, This Is Your Life, back to New York for two programs In November, un daunted by his encounter with Lowell Thomas during the last visit. Carl Reiner has been added to the guest list - of Dinah Shore's Parisian review on NBC-TV this Sunday because of a postponed appearance by Les Marottes, a puppet act. Metropolitan Opera star Cesare Siepi tippers on the Nov. 5 CBS-TV The Big Party, a show the late Errol Flynn had been booked into. Backstage, Abe Burrows has assumed his duties as executive producer of 'Party,' now that some Broadway direc torial commitments are ended. Allied Artists, a film company that has produced "The Al Ca- pone Story and Friendly Per suasion, will produce two as yet unspecified TV film series for ABC films starting in January.

Sweet-Faced Shirley Jones . Being Cast Off Beaten Path By VERNON SCOTT UPI Staff Writer HOLLYWOOD (UPI Sweet faced Shirley Jones' professional life was being saved this week by actor Burt Lancaster and direc tor "Richard Brooks. Both- men virtually are saving the blonde beauty from movie ob livion. Up to now Shirley has been a bucolic milk-maid who pranced through four pictures in starring roles singing a great deal and acting almost not at all. As star of "Oklahoma!" "Car ousel," "April Love" and "Never Steal Anything Small" Shirley was an ineffective innocent little cutie in typical Hollywood froth. This week she became a sleazy harlot in her fifth film, "Elmer Gantry." East German Women Called 'Ladies' Again BERLIN (UPIl You can go ahead and call them "ladies" again in Communist East Ger many. It no longer means they arc rich capitalists living off the earnings of the poor workers. The Communist newspaper Sax ony Zeitung in Dresden advised East German comrades the word had been purged of its old capi talistic meaning aid no longer had anything to do with the ruling class. "They were idlers who were supported by their husbands and felt superior to working women," the magazine said. "What is the situation today? 'These women have just about died out in East Germany) be cause the workers and peasants have the power. . .so if we use the wcrd "lady' today it does not have an infamous meaning any more." At Lancaster s insistence, the Jones girl ditched her type-cast mold for the role of a prostitute. Ard just in time. -Movie offers had ceased coming her way, and it wouldn't have been long before Shirley was a forgotten little gal who "used to star in musicals." The transformation is amazing. Shirley plays all but one of her scenes dressed only in a clinging slip which reveals more of the ac tress than if she were wearing a bikini. "The first day I was embar rassed to walk out in front of the crew," Shirley admitted, blush ing. "I wasn't wearing a thing un der it. Nothing! But now I'm used to parading around in my cos tume, and they've allowed me to wear a sheer pair of panties un derneath. "If this role hadn't come along I'd probably not be doing any more pictures. I'm a very for tunate girl." Billed Fourth ' Previously. Shirley ' rated top billing. In this part she is billed fourth, behind Lancaster, Jean Simmons and Arthur Kennedy. "The role is nowhere near as big as my others." she went on. "But I much prefer a small, well written role that gives me a chance to act. I started out main ly as a singer and learned to act as I went along." Shirley admits she was a sim ple, honey girl when she first ar rived in the land of oranges and smog to play Laurie in "Okla homa." "I never had to worry about acting before." she said. "I just flayed myself. Now, for the tirst time, I have a chance to become an actress."
