Jamie's folks have spent about a dollar a day for worms to feed Thomas, who, although able to fly now, refuses to rejoin his feathered friends. Around Hollywood y ALINI MOSBY Uititad Press Corrtspondsnl Hollywood W Now that VthI Mwlf ia livinff npyt rionr to thp Ricardon only once every l w o monins, she's branch i n g out to e v e r y t h ing from dramatic r o 1 e f to a dude ranch. Ethel and husband Fred, known on their heavy in- Ahn Mossy come tax forma as Vivian Vance and Bill Frawley, won a breather this TV season when "I Love Lucy" graduated from a weekly stint t five one-hour extravaganzas. Pert Vivian still will be Lucy's neighbor but only because the tot-rated program goes into its seventh year on an occasional sUsis. "I had just about had it," con frssed Vivian at her Pacific Pali sades hame. "I toyed with the thought of playing some other i character. I know how Art Car ney feels since the Jackie Gleason show is off Art is happy as a clam working on dramatic shows. Wanlad Naw Scsnsry -I wanted to break out and do something else. But. you know, you just can't quit. Oh, I got let ters, all wanting to know if Bill id I would be on the new show. "I would have quit if it had been a hauf-hour show again. But now it's wonderful, going "to work for two weeks and hav ig two and a half months off. It's opened up a whole new dream for me." Vivian and her husband, sfctor-writer Phil Ober, spend much of their time now on their 15-year-old four-acre "ranch" between Gallup ad Albuquer que. N. Mex. They also cherish a plan to buy a large guest nnch and then live there, com muting to Hollywood for act jog jobs. "And this year 111 do some dramatic shows. I have time tow," the blonde actress added. Vivian is back in town as the Dcsilu Company is getting ready to film the second episode of the new -Lucille Ball-Desi Arnaz" show (the first bows on .CBS-TV in November). Format Virtually Sims The format of the new pro gram is virtually the same as the half-hour version the same characters in situation comedies. But each show now is a com plete story and produced in more elegant style with expen sive sets, guest stars and more music. The first program, which Viv ian calls "just like a short movie musical," concerns the meeting of Lucy and Ricki. Rudy Vallee, their alleged idol at the time, plays himself in the story. Gamma Globulin Lack May Bring Infection Pittsburgh IW Two Univer sity of Pittsburgh scientists warn that children with bone defects may be suffering from a blood condition that lowers their resistance to infections. Drs. William .1. Kuhns and Ir win A. Solow have discovered that persons with bone and skin defects may have a shortage of gamma globulin in the blood. Since the gamma globulin (GG) .contains most of the anti bodies that fight disease, such persons are easy prey to all sorts of infections. The condition may be re lieved by ""monthly shots of gamma globulin. "When we filmed the first show it was like a New York opening," said Miss Vance. "We shot on three stages so our studio audience had to move three times. I'm sure this pro gram will be as popular as the weekly series and this way we all have a chance to slow down and breathe." Barbados Native Has Musical Note To His English Bridgetown, Barbados ftfl The girl leaped for the side walk, and the taxi barely missed i her. The driver grinned good naturedly, and she yelled after him: "Pore soul, don't lick me down." Roughly" translated, that meant: "Good fellow, don't knock me down." The expressions used by the Bajuns local name' for Bar badians serve to enhance the never-never quality of life in this British West Indian tropical paradise, where many people work five month a year, go fish ing the rest. There is a special lilt to the language of the native, so that his English comes out with a musical Scots overtone. But the caffuffling (confusing) words and phrases he has come up with over the past three cen turies is enough to hag (worry) a visitor to death. . London's Cockneys have a bewildering collection of terms, and some of their influence may have crept into the Barbadian speech,- since this is a little bit of Old England in the Carib bean. To help the uninitiated over the hurdles of Barbadian speech, S. Roger Wolin, spokesman for Pan American World Airways' Wilbur L. Morrison, executive vice president in charge of the Latin American Division at Miami Fla., came up with a glossary of terms. Some Samplts A typical bit of advice to a visitor might run like this, Wo lin said: "Don't be a grumpus-back just because every Sam Cow and Duppy seems sawney malawney. They can be as pranksious as a guinea-man at crop over." The translation: "Don't be a surly person just because every Tom, Dick and Harry seems lackadaisical. They can be as frisky as a big flying fish at harvest, festival." . So, go get you ping-pong, come to Barbados, and avoid being gypsy. Translation: Gath er up your passport picture. visit this island, and avoid being officious have a good time. If you get hungry, you might try some cohobbleopot (a stew composed of a variety of ingredi ents). Or, if you get thirsty, blend (share the cost) of some fire (rum) or falernum (a local liqueur) with a mattie (bosom friend). To shake hands with some one, you break fives. And if you chat-chat down, it means to engage a girl in flirtatious talk, usually with the idea oi making a date. But if it's the latter, better make sure you're just a "play play" (make-believe) wolf. Oth erwise, you might find yourself a "sitting breeches," or a caller! who has outstayed his welcome.
