At any rate, Hackett Joined Gleason for three days recently to discuss the new show. "We played golf for three days," said Hackett, "and we talked golf for three days. As I was coming away, Jackie said, 'The more laughs you get on the (how the better I'll like it. I ad mire you most because you're a good actor.'

"When you're playing second man, you've got to discipline yourself and not appear to the audience that you're stealing lines."

The year after this, if Gleason returns to television, "I don't want people asking what hap pened to Hackett," Hackett (aid.

J CO itarnng ARTHUR KENNEDY leif erickson CHARLES McGRAW ERNEST TRUEX General Sets South Tour PARIS (AP) Premier de Gaulle flew south today on a tour of French African territories to drum up votes for his new con stitution in the Sept. 28 referen dum. The general's first destination was Madagascar, an Indian Ocean island off Africa that is larger than France. Then he will visit Brazzaville, Equatorial Africa, where he pledged local self-government to French colonies in a World War II speech as leader of the Free French; Abidjan, Conakry and Dakar, in West Af rica; and rebellion-torn Algeria. In the relerendum the people of these territories will vote on an equal basis with Frenchmen for the first time. De Gaulle favors letting the territories choose between full in tegration into the French govern ment structure or loose federa tion, but his Cabinet reportedly has abandoned the idea of federa tion. However, talks the Premier has with local leaders on his trip are expected to have considerable bearing on his future plans for France s overseas possessions. De Gaulle is scheduled to re turn to Paris at the end of the month. Vice Premier Guy Mollet is in charge during his absence. County Will Refuse Offer MEDIA, Pa.
