Around
Hollywood -
By ALINE MOSBY
United Press Correspondent
Hollywood (U.R) Walt Dis
ney's TV program, "Disney
land," soared "to top success this
season, but the
cartoon master
already is
adding an
other show to
the home
screens a
chil dren's
newsreel.

geniuses might
Aline Mo by be content
with one program that over
night sent its competition to the
showers and pulls 16,000 fan
letters a week. But Disney is
furrowing his brow over a sec
ond TV program from his studio.
"Mickey Mouse Club," which he
calls a "children's newsreel." ,
This will be aired daily from
5 to 6 p.m. which will answer
the sighs of mothers whose
small fry demand to keep awake
until 8:30 p.m. for the weekly
"Disneyland." It starts Oct. 3.,
Will See Other Children
"On the new show children
will see what other children
around the world are doing
their hobbies, their pleasures,
schools, news events," explained
the amiable Disney as he sat
behind a small mound of scripts,
Oscars, letters and models of his
cartoon characters in his studio
office. '
"We are lining up the Welsh
Boys' Choir in Wales and the
Arizona Boys' Choir in Tjicson.
We'll have programs on safety,
health, biology. We'll pick kids
from Europe and bring them
here. We'll take American chil
dren to Europe. , -
"We'll ask children what they
want to be when they grow up.
If a boy's wish is to be a pilot,
we'll film him in the cockpit

English teacher and Malcolm Bershon, 29, Harvard-graduated
medical student, reach Hong Kong after release from Chinese
prisons, expressing complete belief in honesty of Red Justice.
Observers said they were most thoroughly "brainwashed" Amer
ican civilians released from Communist China. (International)
helping fly a plane. A girl
wants to be a nurse . . . she
spends a day with one."
Change Format ,
Next fall even "Disneyland"
will not stick to its current
format because Disney believes
variety is the spice of television.
The current "Davy Crockett"
stories will be released to
theaters as a full-length movie,
and other western yarns will
take their place on TV. Next
year "Disneyland" will feature
"science factual" stories "about
the atomic era and what it will
mean to us." Disney made one
for this season, about a practical
trip to outer space.
; So far, the producer hasn't
realized much of a profit from
his expensive show, "But we
hope to get some of our money
back when 'Crockett goes into
the theaters. The cost will bal
ance out in the long run because
the 'show has a residual value
and is timeless."
I asked Disney for a progress
report on his amusement park,
also called Disneyland, now
rising among the orange groves
at nearby Anaheim.
"The rivers are dug and the
buildings are going up," Disney
beamed. "The foundations were
set last week. The landscaping
is in.
"We hope to open in July but
we may get business a little
earlier. About 7,000 people
have driven over to see the park
so we . may give them a little
tour and a brochure explaining
about the opening."
More trucks in the U.S. are
used for the distribution of milk
from farms to processors and
to consumers than for any
thing else.
