SEPTEMBER 2, 1958 PAGE TWO Star Recalls Early Days When Career Began In 7925 HOLLYWOOD (UPI) Myrna Loy just completed 'her second movie in seven years and an nounced that retirement is the furthest thing from her mind. "If the role is right, and if the1 script looks good, I'll be making more pictures, " she said. "But television is something else again. I've been offered a regular TV series, and if it is filmed in New York I might ac cept. But I won't consider mak ing a scries in Hollywood. '".My home and husband are in the East. Both are more impor tant to me than acting." Miss Loy, whose screen career goes back to 1925, co-stars with Montgomery Clift and K o h e r t Ryan in "Lonely Hearts," plays a straight dramatic role, a change of pace from the light comedy parts that built her career.

By CHARLES MERCER NEW YORK (AP) - "There's a dimension to music that needs to be explained with words," says John Daly. This, basically, is why he has agreed to add another dimension to his busy television career by serving as the narrator of the new "Voice of Firestone" program which makes it debut on ABC-TV next Monday I Sept. 8, 9 p.m., EDT). Persuasive in argument, Daly would have you believe he Is not the busiest man in television and radio. But he probably is. as ad ministrator, newsman and per former a description he dis dains I. He is vice president in charge of news and special events for ABC. He delivers live evening news telecasts and five radio news broadcasts a week. He is the host of "What's My Line?" and narrator ol numerous ABC special programs. The 39-week series will be de voted exclusively to one field of music each week: classical, semi classical or popular. Outstanding artists -in each Held have been se lected to carry the theme of each show. Among those who will ap pear on various programs are Jo btatlord, Fatrice Munsel, Fred Waring, Rise Stevens, Kathryn Grayson. Allred Drake. One pro- gram will feature the Philadelphia symphony orchestra. . "Each show is designed to have a comprehensive character," says Daly. Fond of music, though dis claiming any musical abilities personally, he believes that "mus ic in this complex world is more than pleasure. It's one of our sig nificant cultural weapons in the cold war." In traveling about the world Daly has been impressed by the fact that the peoples of new- na tions "respect us for our cultural level as much as lor economic aid. . . . "The fine point of dignity that people everywhere seek is at tained by the appreciation" of cul ture. Too often we are drawn be fore the world as a rude frontier people. We are not. When a Van Clibum makes such a great im pression on the Russian people, as he did in his Moscow concerts, he has accomplished much more than can any form of skillful propa ganda." By WILLIAM EWALD United Press International NEW YORK (UPD-Views and reviews: This is Paul Douglas Week on TV. Monday night he starred in a 60-minute repeat film, Comfort For the Grave", on NBC-TV's "Suspicion" and this Thursday he'll head up another repeat, "The Dungeon", on CBS- TV's "Playhouse 90". And just to keep his hand in, Monday night Douglas starred in "The Lady Died at Midnight", a creditable if slightly shopworn whodunit on CBS-TV's "Studio One." Gary Merrill, Earl Holliman and Larry Dobkin all turned in per formances of merit on the "Studio One" piece, but it was Douglas who gave the play what stature it had. Hunching and bellowing his way through the 60 minutes, his portrait of a choleric cop was Douglas at his standard best wallopy and true. Kermit Kynell, the mustachioed deputy sheriff on NBC-TV's Twenty-One , quit Monday night after running his stake to $25,500 Kynell, in bowing out, gave Jack Barry the greetings of the Los Angeles County sheriff's depart ment and of the New York police department, a rather weird touch in the light of the current to-do over quizzes.
