MAIL TRIBUNE. Medford", Oregon, Thursday, October 30, 1958 Circle Theater Account Of Ghostly Happenings Leaves Reviewer Chilled By WILLIAM EWALD UPI Correspondent New York -OB- Offhand, I can't think of anything that will numb me into narcosis quicker than true- life stor ies about clairvoyance, telepathy, lev itation, haunt ed houses, me diumship and other clutter of the psychic heap. Phony stories about the spirit world and its tenants, I like.' Bring on the ghosts, mummies, ghouls and deck me with wolfbane. But ser ious retellings of strange oc currences I put in a class with headbump readings, lake monsters, dowsing rods and the writings on the great pyramid. William Ewald Wednesday night, CBS-TV's "Armstrong Circle Theater," a drama show that deals with actual happenings, turned to one of. these honest-to-good-ness strange occurrence stor ies, building an entire hour around a Long Island, N.Y., family whose house had the shakes. It was a rather curious spec imen of program, partly dra matic, partly straight inter view, mostly very dull. The family was trotted out and so were some policemen, all of whom dutifully talked about bottles popping, sugar bowls sliding, plastic globes flying and dressers falling and it all sounded like a normal after noon at anyone's house. Some how, I couldn't help feeling that about 20 cents worth of glue would have fixed every thing up fine. t in i m CAMfUS 120 East Mom Si Buy Now Use Our Time Payment Plan 3 o CAMERAS and SUPPLIES Reg.
