G. Moore Variety Show Contained Fatty Portions But Also Had Some Meat By WILLIAM EWALD UPI Correspondent New York (LTD Garry Moore's new CBS-TV variety show is beginning to shoot off some sparks. Moore's A hour Tuesday night contain- , I ed some fatty A portions, but it also packed some meat. It ran aground on such things William Ewald as a comedy bit aoout movie going that involved William Bendix and Carol Burnett and again, on a HAVE WE GOT ONE, TOO? This is the plaster cast of a giant footprint found in a remote wilderness area of Northern California by a road construction crew cutting a new access road for a logging company. Numerous tracks like this have been seen in the last six weeks, in the fresh dirt of the road. The prints are 16 inches long, 6 inches wide and about 2 inches deep, with ,a stride of about 50 inches long. The logging crew suspects the pres ence of an "Abominable Woodsman."

R. J. Reiser, president of the union, said the shutdown was begun ahead of the Fri day deadline so plant pro cesses could be stopped with out damaging equipment. Reiser said the action was taken after Libbey-Owens- Ford and Pittsburgh Plate Glass failed to agree to fur ther negotiations on a new contract. He 'said the strike covered all of the union's workers in eight states, many of whom stayed on the job since Sept 25 when the old contract ex pired. Negotiations broke down one week ago in a deadlock mainly on the contract issues of manpower and overtime, About 2,000 workers began the walkout Tuesday. In Ohio, about 5,400 L-O-F workers were idled at Toledo and 600 Pittsburgh Plate Glass work ers at Mt. Vernon. Negotiations were under way at Miami, Fla., between the two firms and the union for 17 days before reaching a deadlock. "Unauthorized s t r i k e s' broke out before the walk outs Tuesday at Ford City and Creighton in Pennsylvania, and in St. Louis, Mo. Plants of the two firms are in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Mary land, West Virginia, Illinois, Missouri, Oklahoma and Louisiana.

Schrunk Schrunk said 146 acres at the north end of the surplus property was "extremely val uable" for industrial pur poses. He said it was his un derstanding the city could buy the tract for $101,000 The city has designated the central 318 acres of West Van port for recreational purposes and the mayor said it could be acquired for half of its $175,000 evaluation under a GSA priority program. If 171 acres in the southwest portion would be used as a sanitary fill the city could get the acre age for nothing, he said. Mayor Schrunk said GSA told him the city has the first call for the property but if the land is negotiated for, it would be put up for bid by private developers. Machinery Strike Ends at Portland Portland - (UPD - A four-day strike at Zidell Machinery and Supply Co. was settled here Tuesday but not before picketing metal workers were picketed by another union. Lew Traub of Lewis Can vas Products Co. picketed the strikers in front of the Zidell plant because he said their picket banners were made by a non-union shop. A new contract with the Zidell workers was signed in the afternoon, giving them an 11-cent hourly wage increase and other fringe benefits. They were represented by the Portland Metal Trades council. rendition of "Comes Love" by Marilyn Maxwell. The first was almost torturously un funny; the second stronger on enthusiasm than on singing skill. Chunk of Fluff But these were balanced by a fresh and offbeat chunk of fluff that featured Earl Hall in a song about cows and an other bit that involved a spoof of the "Whiffenpoof Song" as it might be done by a Fred Waring group. The Whiffen poof choral team was made up of such whimsies as Her mione Gingold and Marion Larne and struck me as a pretty delightful chunk of but terscotch. Now that I've seen both of Moore's nighttime offerings, I would say that its most satis fying trait is its lack of pre dictability. It has an air of no formula about it that seems to promise delivery of things other than just songs, dances and jokes. As a result, even when some of its bits fizzle, there's still a feeling of ex pectancy about things to come.

Sludebaker Shows New Economy Car South Bend, Ind.-IUPD-Stude- baker-Packard, catering to the growing market for small cars unveiled its new, small, econ omy car. The 1959 Lark, shorter than the competitor of American Motor's Rebel Six Rambler, was previewed by newsmen here Tuesday. Company President Harold E. Churchill said the Lark was designed to put Stude- baker-Packard in the black for the first time since the merger which created the firm in 1954. He refused to predict when profits would begin mounting. Dealers have already or dered Larks totalling more than half of the company's production of 49,000 units of all models during the 1958 model year, Churchill said." "The new Lark is out to capture an important share of the fastest-growing seg ment of the American auto mobile market," Churchill said. "The demand is there and I believe we are going to get a share. The overnight success of our Scotsman last year con firmed our belief in the soundness of the economy car market." Churchill said with present plant facilities Studebaker Packard could produce 280,- 000 Larks, but he would not predict how many would be I sold. Jury Investigation Of Violence Planned Eugene -(UPD- Lane County District Attorney Eugene C. Venn said Tuesday he plans to ask the-Lane county grand jury to launch a full-scale in vestigation into alleged "law lessness" in the Oakridge area, where the International Woodworkers' of America union has been on strike against the Hines Lumber Co. since June 3. Venn said 20 subpoenas have been issued and are be ing served. Although he did not con nect the "lawlessness" direct ly with the "Hines Lumber strike, he said the acts of vio lence are "apparently directly associated with a pending la bor dispute." Venn said there was a de railment last summer of a yard freight train, that a state police car and logging vehi cles had been "sabotaged," and that there had been re ports of violence threats. He blamed a "small hand- full of men" for the violence and said the investigations were hampered by individ uals afraid to talk.
