William Frawley Lacks
Young Chick To Chase
In New TV Comedy Role
By VERNON SCOTT
Hollywood - flJPD - It takes
a man's man to wear an apron
and play housekeeper in a
television series, and the sissy
who's doing it is William
frawley.
Frawley, you may recall,
played the irascible Fred
Mertz in "I Love Lucy."
,And he'd better not hear
Local Delegates To
Attend Conference
The Federal Land Bank as
sociation of Medford will send
two delegates to a four-state
conference of FLBA represen
tatives in Spokane, Oct. -25
and 26.
A. E. Stevens, association
assistant manager, said Albert
L. Straus of Gold Hill and
William C. Higginbotham of
Central Point will attend the
Spokane meeting. Straus is
president of the association
and Higinbotham a director.
Stevens said the annual con
ference will attract two rep
resentatives from each of the
64 federal land bank associa
tions in Idaho, Montana, Ore
gon, and Washington. The as

long-term farm and ranch

Prineville, a member of the
Federal Farm Credit Board,
and Dr. R. R. Renne, presi
dent of Montana State college,
Bozeman, Mont.
. A. Lars Nelson of St. John,
Wash., chairman of the dis
trict advisory committee, will
report on the work of that
group, and Fred A. Knutsen,
president of the land bank,
fyill discuss progress of the

loans in Jackson and Jose
phine counties. Directors, in

Roundtree of Williams.
me or anyone else calling him
a sissy.
Bill does wear an apron
and does play house mother
in the new Fred MacMurray
show "My Three Sons." The
comedy role also calls for him
to shepherd three rambunc
tious youngsters around.
But don't think old Fred
Mertz, er . . . Bill Frawley
has gone soft. He's still the
same cantankerous, crusty
codger he always was.
Mean as Ever
I'm bossy and mean as
ever," he grinned over a mar
tini on , the rocks, "but I'm
loved, too. Those three boys
Tim Considine, Don uraay
and Stanley Livingston - are
my buddies."
Does Bill miss Vivian
Vance, who played his wife,
Ethel, on the "Lucy" series?
Only because I don't have
a nagging wife to bounce the
comedy off of," he growled.
"As it is, 1 Berate tne Kias
and a dog named 'Tramp' in
the new show. That dog is
really funny - a big, sloppy
good-natured slob who takes
two or three steps and lies
down right in front of me.
I spend a lot of time In tne
kitchen and cleaning up the
house. I can't fry an egg in
real life. But on the show I
turn out layer cakes and
prune whip. I also sweep the
dust under the rugs."
