Quigg Sees Return of Miss Coca, Sid Ceasar to Television Program By DOC QUIGG United Press Correspondent New York OF Unrest is grip ping our midsummer manners ill over, marked by numerous partings of parties long joined. In New York, Tammany Hall and its publicity man resigned from eaci other after the publi cist took on the Dominican Re public as a client. A conflict of client and viewpoints was in dicated. Also in New York, an adver tising firm known for short as BBD&O resigned from the Read er's Digest advertising account because of a "conflict of inter est" between the magazine and another EED&O client which is engaged in largescale manufac ture of cigarettes. In London. Prof. J. B. S. Hal dane, a leading geneticist, re signed from England because it had "foreign troops all over the place; yes. I do mean the Amer icans."

School officials said no one red and that none of the boys escaped. Four Held in Jail However, four of 19 youths who barricaded themselves on the upper floor of the cottage were being held in the Lewis county jail. State officials were ripridinz whether to file crimi nal rhareos against them. All are minors and a court order would be needed to remand them to a juvenile court. "The not was started by about five or six toughies that the school wasn't built to hold," Van R. Hinkle, supervisor of the Division of Children and Youth Services said. Plumbing Ripped Out The cottage held 29 boys, but only 19 were involved in the rioting. They caused water dam age with a hose, ripped out plumbing and broke windows and equipment. State officials said they had not yet estimated the damage. It was the first trouble at the Greenhill academy since Elmer G. Lindquist took over as acting superintendant two months ago. Lindquist said the riot started at 6:37 a.m. and was halted at 8:30 a.m. No reason for the up rising was offered, he said. Leona Ennis Starts Video Rehearsals Hollywood HP Maryland's Miss USA for-a-day, Leona Gage Ennis, today began rehear sals for her acting debut on a nationwide television show Fri day. The 18-year-old beauty Mon day returned to the scene of her brief triumph. She was dis qualified from the Miss Uni verse contest after it was reveal ed she was married and the mother of two sons. The tall brunette will appear on NBC's "Matinee Theater." She said she also has been sign ed for a four weeks' singing en gagement at one of the swank resort hotels at Las Vegas. Nev. "I'm tired but happy at the way it all turned out," she said. "I don't know whether I'd do it all over again, but I can tell you' that "Little White Lies" won't be among the songs I'll sing in the future." Miss Gage, or Mrs. Ennis, told Miss Universe officials a Cin derella story. She said she had come to California with only $45 and didn't plan, to marry until she was 26 years old. Her "fibs" backfired when her hus band confirmed her true identi ty after she had been named Miss USA.

Comes Bright News In the face of these and other reports of cleavage of unions of long standing, comes the bright news of a prospective reunion after dreary years of separation Imogene Coca and Sid Caesar probably will get together again cn television. For this TV onlooker, the pros pective return of Miss Coca to the national living room with the proper framework for her re markable talents is the happiest news since the invention of air conditionings. I must confess to a certain overflow of heroine worship in her direction for many years. , In the ancient teys before television, I used to go to any nightclub at which she was ap pearing just for the privilege of sitting there and watching her roll those billiard-ball eyes. She had one skit in which she rol led the audience is the tiny DON'T BUY Smooth Hftini imfliiiil in in ifn II tfwwriltf&fofrrft , - . jjfg.

Has Outstanding Equipment To the business of bein a fun ny person. Miss Coca brings some outstanding equipment. Her face is so arranged that her leer is the finest in the comic world today, bar none. Her voice can range from a splitting squeak that would startle a rat, down through the roller-coaster of coloratura into a husky bass hodel which can be described only by remarking that it has undertones. 9 She has a pretty fair knact at ballet, too, if she wants to travesty that dance form. And as a mimic and pantomimist from femme fatale to wispy hobo-she is tops. Caesar is a fine comedian. It is to be hoped that if he brings Miss Coca back on a show with him, he will turn her loose un reined on-stage and let her ramble. CHEVROLET BEST IN TRANSCONTINENTAL ECONOMY TEST!
