New York Secretary of State Dulles, warning America against abandoning spiritual values in an all-out race with Russia for military supremacy: ". . .

(International) 'To Tell the Truth' Said One of Television's Brightest Panel Shows By WILLIAM EWALD ! ist, Polly Bergen, an excep- ; f United Press Correspondent tionally pretty and animated ! - New York (IP) It was the late Fred Allen who observed: "All you need for a panel show is four people and some lumber." Allen was kidding, of course. As one of the plank sitters on the successful "What's My Line," Allen William Ewald knew that a good panel show is almost as difficult to put together as a battleship Right now, there are only three night - time network panel shows around "What's My Line," "I've Got a Se cret" and "To Tell the Truth." all of them in the CBS-TV stable. The last is the youngest of the trio and in many ways, the brightest. Its panel is less shopworn than the other two efforts and it usually avoids the double entendre that too often seeps into the older shows. I would like to make a sidepoint here: I don't think the double entendre stems so much from the questions of panelists as in the calculated selection of guests with occu pations or secrets that will lead to leers. Adds Shine To put this thing in per spective, I don't think "To Tell the Truth" will ever bulk large when the history of TV is written, but it does add a little shine to the mark of Tuesday evening on TV. The reasons for its success, I think, are three: 1. A good bit of skill and sense seems to go into the assembly of the show. If you haven't seen it, I should ex plain that three guests are'pa raded on stage, all pretending to be the same person. Two are dissemblers and it's up to the panel to single out the honest guest. " i Whoever drills the liars each week does an artful job. All the members of one trio this week, for example, pre tended to be Fritz Brickell, a fairly obscure infielder with the New York Yankees. After watching, the trio submit to a crossfire of questions from the panel, I was almost sure Brickell was a lanky gent in the middle. So was most of the panel. We were wrong. 2. The show's emcee, Bud Collyer is genial without be ing overbearing about it. I must admit I don't care much for Collyer when he emcees shows like "Beat the Clock," but he seems more contained on "Truth',' and he snaps off the show at a brisk pace with out getting hubba-hubba. Finely Balanced Panel 3., The show's panel has a fine balance and in one panel- performer. Miss Bergen has a rare combination going for her she has a show business slickness and at the same time, an earthiness that she sometimes seems hard put to contain. She reminds me a lit tle of a carefully coiffed'and clad girl at a dinner party who kicks off her shoes un der the table. To sum up, there is a cate gory in TV known as the "fun" show, a group usually distinguished only by its .un fun. However, I think that "To Tell the Truth" is that TV rarity: A fun show that is occasionally just that.
