Double Jeopardy
If They Don't Get You on TV
They'll Get You With An Album.
If
Washington (UPD Double
jeopardy is unconstitutional
but one form of it has been
i 1 1 flour ishing
lately. Let me
give you an
example. As I
jjflBi &xfl was driving
-j nome ' r 0 m
if I work the oth
er evening, I
turned on my
"U r ramo Just
-in time to
weit hear someone
making a shambles out of
"I'll Get By," one of my fa
vorite tunes.
Curiosity overcame my
dial-switching impulse and I
held on to the bitter end to
ee if the disc jockey in
charge would identify the
culprit. He did.
Jle said the recording had
been committed by a fellow
from the television program
"Bonanza."
Now I lead a rather shel
tered life and that program
had somehow escaped my no
tice. I assumed from its title
that it was some sort of a
giveaway.
Bui when I got horn I
learned I had leaped to the
wrong conclusion. My teen
age daughter, who es all,
knows all and tells all
where television is con
cerned, told me that "Bo
nania" ii a Western.
Furthermore, she said the
chap' I had heard undermin
ing "I'll Get By" plays the
part of a ranch owner. That
astonished me.
Judging from his voice, I
would have guessed that he
played the part of a stampede.
Anyway, this is what I
mean by double jeopardy. If
you miss 'em on television
they will get you with a rec
ord album A
All sorts of wanderers of
Newton Minow's wasteland
are cutting records these
days. Ben Casey sings and Dr.
Kildare sings, to mention a
couple. Their albums have
helped popularize laryngitis.
Another singing television
actor is George Maharis, late
of the program "Route 66." A
record-plugging tour brought
him to Washington recently
and I took the occasion to
examine this peculiar cul
tural manifestation at close
range.
In cashing in on what
ever it is that prompts a
television fan io buy an
actor's vocal album, Ma
haris had to overcome a
rather severe handicap. He
once took singing lessons.
Generally speaking, only
an actor whose voice is un
sullied by musical training
can expect to produce a hit
record.
To make matters worse,
Maharis was earning his liv
ing as a singer before he took
up acting. This could have
been fatal to his career.
Fortunately, he developed
a throat condition that
forced him to stop singing.
His croaky voice was ideally
suited to the "method school
of acting, however, so he
turned to the theater.
Being both an actor and a
non-singer, he could have be
come a big recording star.
But unfortunately, his voice
came back.
Maharis hasn't done badly
considering his handicap and
I wish him well provided
that he lays off of "I'll Get
By."
Resolutions Deal
With Game Laws
Four resolutions dealing
with game laws in the state
of Oregon, passed at a recent
meeting of the Jackson Coun
ty Chapter of the Oregon Fish
and Game Council at Centre!
Point, were approved last Sat
urday, when presented to the
state meeting in Bend.
The resolutions recommend
ed that the positions of sttte
game commissioners be
changed from appointive to
elective: that validation of
deer and elk tags of every
hunter be made mandatory;
that the annual report and
recommendations made by the
state game biologists to the
state game commission be
made public and that funds
allocated by the legislature to
the state game commission to
operate state fish and game
manage ment programs be
used for the specified pur
poses only.
Members of the chapter
maintained that validation of
tags would give a more accur
ate count of annual deer and
elk killed. They also express
ed the opinion that the public
has the right to know what
the county biologist recom
mends for the county in which
he lives.
The Jackson county chapter
of the Oregon Pish and Game
Council will hold another
meeting May 16 at the Central
Point Sportsman club, Walter
Craig, president, announced.
