10 MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, Oregon, Tuesday, August 5, 1958 'Masquerade Party' Has Embarrassing Moment In Monday Night Debut By WILLIAM EWALD United Press International New York CTD "You know how bad this TV sea son is?" a friend said the oth- M tell you I'm actually look ing forward to the summer debut of "Mas querade Par ty." Well, Mon day night -was the night wishes came true. "Mas querade Party," a show that pops in and out of TV with the regularity of little liver pills, popped in again. Over the past couple of seasons, the show has been on NBC TV and ABC-TV. About the only outlet left is the Siamese booth at the Brussels World's Fair. Painless Panel ' Monday night, "Masquer ade Party" weighed in with emcee Robert Q. Lewis and a painless panel made up of Jonathan Winters, Pat Car William Ewald Vesf Virginia To Pick Senators In Primary Vole Charleston, W. Va. UPD Two Democrats bid for polit ical comebacks today as they seek nominations for U. S. Senate seats in West Virginia primaries. West Virginia is the only state in the union electing two United States senators this year. The prize plums are the unexpired two-year term of the late Sen. M. M. Neely and a full six-year term, both held by Republicans facing no par ty opposition for reelection. Also at stake are West Vir ginia's six seats in the U. S. House of Representatives, our of five incumbents have no primary opposition. The only incumbent with party op position is veteran Republi can Will E. Neal, who is fa vored. Seek Short Term Former Gov. William C. Marland and one-time Cong. Jennings Randolph aim for the "short term Senate seat now held by John D. Hoblitzell Jr. Marland lost two years ago in a bid for the Senate when he was defeated for the unex pired term of the late Harley M. Kilgore. The victor was Sen. Chapman Revercomb, Charleston Republican. Revercomb, unopposed on the GOP ticket, is running for reelection to a six-year term. On the Dempcratic primary Cong. Robert C. Byrd is fa vored over Fleming Alderson, of Charleston and Jack R. Delligatti, of Fairmont. May Be Dark-Horse The Marland - Randolph battle enlivens an otherwise quiet primary in the "off year." Some political observ ers believe Arnold M. Vickers, Montgomery lawyer and for mer State Senate president, may be a dark horse. W. R. Wilson, of Fairmont, also bids for the Democratic nomina tion. West Virginia's Democratic registration is about 200,000 greater than the Republican. Latest figures show 660,850 on the Democratic rolls to 410,929 Republicans.

An Air France Super G Constellation inau gurated the Paris-to-Moscow commercial run Sunday.' roll, Eugenia Falkenburg and Johnny Johnston. It was their chore to guess the identities of celebrities who showed up in disguise. 'Among the celebrities were Louis Nye, Poston and Don Knotts and Peter Lawford, all of them fugitives from NBC TV and very nice of CBS-TV to have them around, I must say. However, their appear ances made for some pretty tame stuff. Embarrassing Moment Not so with the appearance of another guest, Kathryn Grayson, who was dressed as a harem queen. Miss Grayson, of course, is the former wife of panelist Johnny Johnston. This bit of casting may strike you as a rather incredible piece of bad taste, but then the ways of show business are mysterious and unfathomable to lay people. Anyway, Miss Grayson was all ginger and jolliness with the panel until Johnston's turn came around and he gracefully refused to play. After that. Miss Grayson turn ed kind of short and snappish in answer to questions. I would say it was an honest excruciatingly embarrassing moment for the viewer. Not Ready To Pass However, emcee Lewis was not quite ready to drop it. "I'm curious to know why you passed," Lewis said to Johnston after Miss Grayson's identity had been guessed. "Well, when you're married to someone for five years, you get to know their points pretty well," choked out John ston in part. Miss Grayson playfully swatted her former husband on the cheek and flounced off stage in the wrong direction I guess in a way you could say it was the highspot of the television evening. Lawyer's Take Divorcee's Case Indianapolis, Ind. (UPD A father-son team of criminal lawyers agreed Monday night to defend a divorcee charged with slaying her married lover. The first action of the at torneys, Charles and Frank Symmes, was to slap a "no visitors" ban on Mrs. Connie Nicholas, 42, who is recover ing in General hospital from an overdose of sleeping pills. Frank Symmes, the father, said he decided to undertake the defense of the attractive divorcee, who admitted shoot ing drug firm executive For rest Teel, because he believed she had "a good case." Mrs. Nicholas contended she shot and killed Teel, 54, wealthy executive vice presi dent of Eli Lilly and Co., dur ing a violent argument last Thursday morning over his alleged affair with a younger woman." ' "It looks like a case of self defense," Symmes said. "Her eye is swollen shut. Somebody slugged her." Charles Symmes said he be lieved Mrs. Nicholas probab ly will be able to attend a preliminary hearing on the slaying charge Thursday. He said he probably would enter a plea of self defense. CALLS FOR FAST EXIT Vallauris, France (UPD An aspiring bullfighter had an unexpected comedown on his first appearance in the local ring Monday.

Rivalry Becomes Feud The two unions are the Lumber and Sawmill Work ers and the International Woodworkers of America, both affiliated with the AFL CIO. Their rivalry erupted intoa feud in recent months in Oregon as they contend ed in membership raids in plants, and engaged in prop aganda battles. McDonald said "there is room for both, provided they will cease raiding tactics and work for the common in terests of . their respective memberships." Weakens Strength He said their feud weak ens their strength at the bargaining table. He said the feuding and raiding "weak ens the whole structure and effectiveness of the labor movement." McDonald told the 400 delegates at the convention that labor in Oregon has been "fortunate" in having escaped "right to work" fights being waged in other Pacific Coast states.
