'The'fdrinatvdf this weekly

was altered Friday to permit

The "Ev and Charlie
Show,? as you may know,, is
the i name applied - by local
Journalists to the . joint news
conferences 'conducted', by
Sen.' Everett-M. .Dirksen (R
111.) and Rep. Charles A. Hal-
leck (R-ind.).. :' :
VTher'two Republican con
gressional' leaders have been
appearing before the cameras
once a. week: to expound the
GOP : liner, oni legislative , is
sues: and "thus, they hope, pre
vent a. stampede, to the New
Frontier;- , i -,' ..;';' i
hew'e Hit 1 , '
. - The show was a hit from
the beginning but, like a lot
of other-r TV r. regulars, the
Dirksen-Halleck team at. times
runs short of fresh material.
' To -combat, flagging interest,
K; Obviously needed a quick
transfusion, and this was sup
plied by : the announcement
that Nixon would be present
for; last: week's episode; -. -t
' The erstwhile GOP- presi
. deritial candidate -hadn't been
seen around these parts since
he was nosed out at the polls
last: -November. There - was,
consequently, flllup of 'drama
in - his return.

Peace Corp Said ',.
Frightening Reds
J'Jtompton,: Va.,.-'- iwj .-. As
sistant Secretary of State for
African. .Affairs ,G. Mennen
Williams said Saturday the
Kennedy', administration's
Peace Corps has captured the
imagination of most Africans
to 'such an. extent, that the
Communists are afraid of it.
"Africans like the way peo
ple are coming in to live on

newsmen- at-Hampton- Insti

tured speaker in a seminar on

Sheriff Returns
Wanted Man Here '.

county Saturday. -. -
-The : sheriffs department
said. the man is being held on
charges .of abducting a local
' haut six months ago.
He -will be arraigned in dis
trict i court early this week.
Further details were unavau
able at press time.
preme Court Chamber in the
Capitol, , which. Dirksen. and
Halleck use for a studio, was
crammed to the rostrum, with
reporters pnd photographers.
The host performers came
on first and .went into .their
usual -opening; routine. Hal
leck read, a statement setting
forth, the . party's views -on
unemployment. Then- Dirksen
read a statement setting forth
the . party's - views -on unem
ployment.' "' " ' " ''.' '.'
Talk About Cuba- .-- -.; ' -?';';
, Next they - answered ques
tions about the crisis in Cuba.
Halleck' said it was a matter
of ."great concern." - Dirksen
said it was a matter of "grave
concern." . ;-. -.;. .". .' i -.
This . might i sound- i a :bit
repetitious, but , it .. keeps . the
two political thespians from
upstaging each other .
After about .25 minutes,
Nixon emerged from the
wings and began juggling
questions. He was, I thought,
in fine form. . , .
Some of the inquiries were
rather s'uarply angled, but he
demonstrated that he can still
handle them with aplomb.
His only mishap was knock
ing over the water glass that
Dirksen had left on the lec
tern. . ( '
. For what it may be worth,
I got the impression that Nix
on . is thinking ahead-possi-bly-
to. around 1964.....,,... '
'In any event, he may have
convinced Dirksen and Hal
leck that, the one-shot guest
.technique, can be a valuable
adjunct to their program. It
will . be interesting . to . see
what they do for an encore.
