'Kraft' Theater Has Good Performances, William Ewald Says BY WILLIAM EWALD United Press International New York (ITD Views nd reviews: NBC-TV's "Kraft Mystery Theatre," a terribly underrat ed show, pulled some super ior performances Wednesday night out of a medium-cold chiller, "We Haven't Seen Her Lately." The piece was one of those things that combined foggy atmosphere with foggy plot, but it was serviceable enough as a vehicle for George Scott to wheel around in. Scott, one of the most tal ented young actors in our the ater, played a weird-o garden er one of those standard mystery- story types who al ways seems to t be burying bodies, but is really just a good guy muddying the plot and he played it with churlish authority. He's a comer one of those craggy-featured gents who oozes presence. Scott got some fine support from An gela Thornton, Mary Finney, Louis Edmonds and Myra Car ter: Now I have seen every thing: on NBC-TV's " I Could Be You" Wednesday night, a girl won a night on the town in Hollywood with a man dressed in a gorilla suit. And he seemed satisfied with her prize. Even the- repeats of of CBS-TV's "Leave It To Beaver" look good I had seen Wednesday night's epi sode about Beaver breaking a window, but I still found it mildly captivating. Diana Lynn is an attractive, capable gal and it's a shame to watch her frittering away her talents on gummy gudgeon like Wednesday night's repeat, "The House That Jack Built," on CBS-TV's "Johnson's Wax Theater." The camera -work on the .NBC-TV "Jack Paar Show" while the Marine Corps drill team was marching around was pretty shoddy, but that's all right with me as entertainment, i rate drill teams one level below Lib- erace ' The Channel Swim: Elsa Maxwell will check into the NBC-TV "Jack Paar Show" on Glass Containers Big Business Now Chicago (UPD Glass con tainers and closures became a billion-dollar business for the first time in 1957, accord ing to Richard L. Cheney, ex . ecutive . director of the Glass Container Manufacturers In stitute. Cheney also told the In vestment Analysts Society of Chicago that approximately one-third of the dollar value of all glass containers pro duced in the United States come from those manufac tured in 19 plants in Illinois and Indiana. ' The dollar volume of new class containers made by the United States totaled $784,- 000, Cheney added; the value of closures to $284,000. Shipments of new glass con tainers by GCMI member companies, which produce over 90 per cent of all glass "containers, he said, reached n all-time record high in the first three months of 1958. The 3.6 per cent increase brought the total shipments to 4.3 billions units for the first auarter. "Most of the increase In the first quarter was in soft drink bottles, returnable bottles increased 81 per cent and non returnable bottles 14.3 per cent," Cheney said. Section of Turnpike Reserved for Dogs Cleveland, Ohio (CPD A small section of the Ohio Turnpike has gone to the dogs. The Ohio Turnpike Com mission has set up dog exer cise areas at each of the 16 plazas. The runs are about 150 feet long, 15 feet wide, covered with four inches of fine gravel and enclosed with four-foot-high snow fences. Assistant maintenance en gineer Wesley Hottenstein said: "Dogs sometimes get messy, and we thought that giving them an enclosure of their own would make things bet ter for everyone, including the dogs."

Medicine Chests Cause Headache Hong Kong (LTD Medicine chests 98,000 of them and all empty have igiven Shanghai pharmacies quite a headache The wooden cabinets were ordered by the Chinese Com munist government early in 1956 as its contribution to the health of the peasants Each cabinet was to contain an assortment of medicines and first-aid supplies for every conceivable emergency. The cabinets, according to an official report, were to sell for seven dollars apiece. - But in Red China, peasants cannot afford to spend that much money, even to guard against sunstroke and bee stings. So nobody bought. The pharmacies quickly cut the price by two-thirds and offered the cabinets without any medical supplies in them. Vegetable venders found them useful as coin boxes; ac tors purchased them for stor ing cosmetics; factory workers for tools; housewives for sew ing implements. But fewer than 20,000 of the chests were thus disposed of. And the pharmacies were stuck with the rest at a po tentional loss of $88,000. However, they can be thank ful of one thing, Peiping orig inally wanted to sell one mil lion of the medicine chests. The order was cancelled be fore 100 thousand were built. Enterprise Starts On Final Journey New York (UPD The USS Enterprise, one of the most il lustrious warships in U. S. Naval history, began its final voyage today when it was eased out of its berth at the Brooklyn Navy Yard and moved by tug to Kearny, N.J., for dismantling. The 834-foot aircraft car rier gained eminence early in World War II as the flagship of Adm. William F. Halsey and went on to earn 20 of a possible 22 Pacific battle stars. Rapid advance in naval avi ation technology made the En terprise obsolete and the Navy sold her for $561,333. A cam paign led by Halsey to make the "Big E" a national shrine collapsed when the million dollars needed for the project could not be raised. The carrier's record of de struction to the enemy in World War II included 911 planes, 71 ships sunk and an other 192 damaged or proba bly sunk.

Navy Papers Too Much for Young Wife of Sailor Erie, Pa. (UPD Stranded here when her sailor husband was transferred overseas, a young Japanese wife found there is truth in the old say ing, "the Navy takes care of its own." Mrs. Kuniko Kuhn, 25, was close to tears when she en tered the office of Chief Yeo man Al Lambert at the Naval Reserve Training Center here. Dumping a pile of govern ment papers on his desk, she pleaded for help. She hardly knew what her problefc was, much less how to solve it. Lambert sorted through the papers and found out that Kuniko, the wife of a 2nd class lithographer, Harold Kuhn, had not been permitted out of the country to follow her husband to Morocco be cause she was not a citizen. "It's hard ehohgh for some Americans to understand all the red tape that goes into things like this," Lambert said. "Here was a Japanese girl, new in the states, and she didn't know where to turn." . ' Red Tap Cut Chief Lambert got the Navy into action "and enlisted the aid of the Immigration and Naturalization Service in getting citizenship papers for Kuniko. A few well-worded tele grams, a test in American his tory which Kuniko, aided by two years of college in Japan, passed easily, and the red tape was cut. A special section of the citizenship law covering wives of servicemen permitted the waiver of the usual three-year waiting period, and within a few weeks Kuniko now le gally dubbed Kay, in .keeping with her -new nationality took the solemn oath of loy alty to the United . States of America. When it was all over, Kay Kuhn, American 1st- class, bowed politely again and again toward the judge who had administered the oath and toward chief Lambert. "The Navy is so fine," she said. "Please say thank you for Kuniko." 48 Swine, 440 Cattle Imported Into State Salem During July 440 cattle and 48 swine were im ported ' into Oregon for im mediate slaughter.

(UPD Two Rochester youths who started on a shoestring have built up a prosperous bicycle repair business in less than four years. Back in 1954, George Ren nie found that getting his bike repaired took many days be cause there were only a few repair shops available. A newspaper delivery boy then, he decided to try his own hand at repairs. George found he had a knack for repair work, and soon he had his best friend, John Kemp, as a partner in business. The workshop, with his parent's permission, was set up in George's home. "I bought our first bike for $5," the Rennie youth recall ed recently. "We repaired it and sold it for $15. Then we bought three bikes for S5 each and repaired and sold them ..." Business continued to pick up, and the 19 -year -old youths reported their most re cent inventory "showed more than $7,000 in tools, parts and accessories." The youths are using money earned in their bike repair business to finance their edu cation. George is studying ac counting at Rochester Busi ness Institute, while John is majoring in chemistry at John Fisher College. The youths have three rules they go by: (1) Always put business before pleasure; (2) always have 100 per cent co operation between partners; (2) always have a wholeheart ed desire to please your cus tomers. Union Misdeeds Said Spotlighted San Francisco (UPD Cali fornia Attorney General Ed mund G. Brown told the In ternational Typographical Un ion national convention today that "too much of the public view of unions is confined to the spotlighted misdeeds of the Becks, the Hoffas, and the Hutchesons."

He noted that former Team sters President Dave Beck, current Teamster' President James Hoffa, and Maurice A Hutcheson, President of the Carpenters Union are mem bers of the Republican Party.

MAIU TRIBUNE, Medford, Orefon, Radar May Hold Key New York (UPD Huge radars with 40-foot-wide an tennas, mounted on 75-foot-high steel towers, may hold the key to safer and more efficient flights in the impend ing jet age of civil aviation. Steelways, official publica tion of American Iron and Steel Institute, said big ra dars, 73 of them, would scan the skies in circles of 300 mile diameter and give con trollers a picture of en route air traffic in almost every part of the country: Other types of radar would help break the costly present-day bottlenecks at airports.
