DEWEY Actor Got to By Punching By VEHNON SCOTT UPI Hollywood Correspondent Hollywood -(UPD- There are many roads to movieland in cluding punching a New Or leans cop in the nose. It's not a recommended route, but it worked for Ken Scott. Scott, a towering 6-foot 4 inch 200 pounder, belted his way to a long term 20th Century-Fox contract and good roles in eight pictures. And he owes it all to the New Orleans constabulary. Four years ago Ken, an an nouncer in the Louisiana city, spent his free time around the harbor area water skiing. "I was a member of a ski ing club," he admitted, "but we did more drinking than skiing. One day my buddy steered the boat into a swim- .AMC Advises Buyers To Consider Tone Chicago When buying a , piano, tone is most important, , according to the American Music conference.

Bulgarian Plans For Big Progress Slowed by Russia By DAVID DUGAS United Press International Sofia, Bulgaria-dJPII-BuIgar-ian plans ' for a Tied China style "great leap forward" have been soft pedaled by Soviet master planners, ac cording to western observers here. Emphasis is to be on ex pansion of a budding tourist trade aimed at prosperous Western Europe and on in creased agricultural production. The Soviet decision to do lay drastic industrialization of this Balkan state has come as a disappointment to local party leaders, observers be lieve, although open opposi tion is not considered a pos sible outcome. Agriculture is having its own problems, though. With virtually all of Bulgaria s fer tile farmlands collectivized, Red leaders began moves two years ago toward further combining smaller units into BIG DOUBLE OFFER Send in label from a quart of Miracle Wliip and S.vV:.GET B :; FOR PREEp I TTZZ ' : I I ... .AW -j 7 v FI.J V:v; 7 In What an easy way to make 35!

Chinese-like communes. At the same time there was talk of collectivizing live stock instead of allowing peasants to keep their an imals on small private plots. The result was that last year much of the stock was slaugh tered and present herds are well below pre-war levels. FJmpty butcher shops have forced Sofia families into meatless diets. Meanwhile, Bulgarian econ omists, busy 18 months ago pointing out the difficulties facing a predominantly agri cultural economy have chang ed the subject. Another problem facing Bulgarian economists, west ern observers say, stems from farmers who peddle their pro duce on the higher paying city markets while slighting slate production quotas. The practice has left stale can ning factories with little to can. Stiffened state regulations to counteract the situation are expected to result. On the trade front, Bul garians have shown a new in terest in dealing with the West. Exports, mostly to the Soviet bloc, changed little last year but imports from the West jumped from 14.6 per cent in 1058 to 22 per cent in 1059. A three-year trade agreement with France wont into effect Aug. 1. An other agreement has been signed with the Benelux countries. The United States, which reopened a legation in Sofia last March after a diplomatic absence of 10 years, will par ticipate in the annual Inter national Trade Fair at Plov div in September. Western economists expect no drastic change in the Bul garian economy. With little more than agricultural prod ucts to export, the country's ability to build up hard cur rency reserves is limited. Bul garian currency remains soft. The official rate pegs the leva" at 6.8 lo the U.S. dol lar. Tourists are given 9.5 lo the dollar. But so low is the leva's real value that $10 worth of it purchased outside the country is worth about $60 inside. The discrepancy explains why the Bulgarians forbid the import or export of any local money. College Editors Critical of U.S. Newspapers Minneapolis - (UPI) - College newspaper editors Wednesday criticized the American press for "slanting news stories and refusing to cover in an ade quate manner the major na tional and international issues which face us today." The college editors arc meeting here in conjunction with the United States Nation al Student Association (USNSA). Paul Dubrul, former editor of the Hunter College Arrow of New York City, said that the wire service reporters in the South wore .biased in fa vor of segregation and were not objective in their report ing of sit-in demonstrations in Nashville. Tcnn. The criticism was contained In a release circulated by USNSA, which said that while no resolution to that effect had been adopted, the matter came up in "floor discussion" and it represented the general view of editors attending the conference. Four schools were cited for what the editors considered abridgement of the freedom of the press. They were Brook lyn college and Hunter col lege, New York, the Univer sity of Illinois and Roosevelt university, Chicago. Action against the schools was in the form of a resolution. Hollywood Cop in Nose ming area and was slopped by a police boat. Socked In Eye "I was dangling at the end of a tow rope getting water logged. I climbed aboard the boat and found this cop try ing to arrest my pal. So I socked him in the eye." Ken was thrown into jail wearing his swimming shorts, and caused a mild sensation among his followers in New Orleans. "I left town under a cloud," j Ken recalled. "So I put the top down on my convertible and drove to Hollywood. By the time I got here I was so tanned I looked like Cochise. "After a few days Fox gave me a screen lest and signed me to a contract, and I've been working ever since." Scott's most recent films are "Desire in the Dust" and "Beloved Infidel." He also starred in "Five Gates to Hell." Returns For Premiere Recently he returned lo New Orleans for the premiere of one of his pictures, not knowing what to expect from TV Reviewer Likes Comedy of Claudette Colbert By FRED DANZIG United Press International New York - (UPD - Will Rogers is gone. Mort Sahl isn't very active on network TV. Neither is Bob Hope. So, when it comes to kid ding politicians on Capitol Hill, I'm ready to settle for Claudette Colbert, of all peo ple. Relations between the TV industry and Congress being what they are, this is prob ably not the best time for a producer to sell a TV series that gently, ever so gently, bounces laughs off the hill. Actually, the way they play the game, no time is best. But a few years ago, when we were all more innocent, a pilot film called, "Welcome to Washington" was produced by Miss Colbert. It was side- his friends on the police force. "I was amazed," he grinned. "They treated me like a hero. I was interviewed on TV and welcomed like Gen. Mac Arthur, after leaving town like a defector to the North Koreans. "Best of all, I was made an honorary sheriff. My badge is good until 1964. "Of course, I skipped the harbor area. Those guys around the docks have it in for me. Besides hitting the cop, a bunch of us once sank a police boat in the harbor just for laughs." Originally from Brooklyn, where he drove a beer truck, Ken has worked at maintain ing friendly relations with Brothers Separated After Separation Huston, Tex.-Brothers Hen ry and Arthur Fleece met re cently after a separation that lasted 27 years. They were separated again when a judge sentenced each to jail for being drunk while driving home from their get together celebration.

In the proposed series, Miss Colbert played the part of Elizabeth Harper, a freshman congresswoman , . . party affiliation unspeci fied. Miss Colbert's pilot film reached our living rooms Tuesday night - a one-shot affair, to be sure - as part of CBS-TV's "Comedy Spot." Compared with the hard bitten, sadistic cowboy junk and the hard-bitten, sadistic private eye junk that we ordinarily get - and will con tinue to get - Miss Colbert's effort was as welcome as a glass of ice water in a turkish bath. - Sure, there were treacly bits of the traditional situ ation comedy code - the eter nal honeymooners, the red blooded kids. But the show also had some perky dialogue. At 'one point, Leif Erickson, playing Miss Colbert's hubby, was asked if his next book would be based on fact or fiction. "Half-and-half. It's history," he replied. Not wildly funny or bold but different enough to show an honest, literate approach to the task.
