ITEBALD AMD NEWS, Klamath Falls, Oregon Monday, May 27, 19M PAGE J A Shirley Booth, E. Marshall Win Second Emmy Awards HOLLYWOOD (UP1) - Shirley Booth and E. G. Marshall, two; old pros from Broadway, shared television's top awards today asj the best actress and actor of the 1962-63 season. Miss Booth and Marshall both won Emmys at Sunday night's 15th annual awards presentations as the best performers in regu lar series. It was the second year in a row tor both stars. ine midoie-aged actress won her golden statuette for her role as the doleful housemaid "Hazel." She won a motion pic ture Oscar in 1!)52 for her per- tormance in Come Back, Little Sheba." Marshall's second straight tri umph resulted from his portrayal as the straight-laced defense at torney on the highly rated "The Defenders" series. Another Broadway veteran, Kim Stanley, won the best single per formance Emmy for her role as a drug-addicted lawyer in a two- part segment of the "Ben Casey' scries titled "A Cardinal Act of I Mercy." English star Trevor Howard was voted the Emmy for best single performance by an actor for his title role in "The In vincible Mr. Disraeli" which was beamed as a segment of "The Hallmark Hall of Fame." But it was a documentary, "The Tunnel," which carried away the best program of the year award as well as best documentary laurels. A grim and true account of the digging of an escape tunnel from Last to West Berlin beneath the infamous wall, "The Tunnel" ac tually was filmed during the event itself. The controversial show was delayed in being televised for two months because of the Berlin, crisis. Sunday nights awards were presented to star-studded audi ences in New York's Hotel Am ericana with Arthur Godfrey as host, in Hollywood's Palladium with Joey Bishop in charge, and in the Sheraton-Park Hotel in Washington, D.C., with Chct Hunt ley at the helm. Popular Winner One of the most popular awards was to Carol Burnett, who was with five awards, including the best dramatic show of the year. Other multiple winners were Walt! Disney's "Wonderful World of Color," "The Tunnel" and "A Cardinal Act of Mercy." j Newsman David Brinkley was a double winner for his "David Brinkley's Journal" (best news commentary) and for the Hunt- ley-Brinkley news report (best news program I. Television Critic Blasts Emmy Awards Program By RICK DU BROW HOLLYWOOD (UPI) Sunday night's Emmy awards show on NBC-TV, despite its flatness, of fered one gorgeous moment of justice. Out came three of "The Beverly Hillbillies" cast, taste lessly in costume, to take part in handing out the prizes for best comedy and none of the awards went to their series. The Dick Van Dyke Show, in stead, captured the Emmys for top comedy program; writing and direction. And there was higr irony in the fact that the "Hill billies." whose series is built around the way they outslicker city folks, were by all odds the ones who appeared the most lu dicrous when faced by the real- life situation. Hillbillies execu tives already have adopted the Dinah Shore Married In Quiet Rite REDLANDS, Calif.

Italian Film Wins Award CANNES, FRANCE (UPI -"The Leopard." an Italian movie directed by Luchino Visconti, won the Cannes International Film Fes tival's top award, the "Golden Palm." Thursday night. Irish actor Richard Harris was named the best actor for his brash portrayal of a rugby hero in Brit tain's "This Sporting Life." France's Marina Vlady was named best actress for her role in the Italian movie "The Queen Hoe." posture that "nobody likes us but the people," and you know! the intelligence level of that argu ment. Sunday night's audience of in dustry people seemed rather em barrassed when the "Hillbillies" came out, and it js significant that there should be such a feel ing toward television's most com mercially successful new show. Unwittingly, in fact, the awards turned out to be a severe indict ment of the quality of the new series shows that were offered by the networks in the entertainment field this season. For instance The top comedy program, the Dick Van Dyke Show, and the choice for best drama, "The De fenders," are not newcomers. Nor are those chosen as best actor and actress in a series, E. G. Marshall of "The Defenders" and Shirley Booth of "Hazel." It was nonsense that the Andv Williams show should be selected as best variety program: it should have been that good, but never was. And it is equal nonsense that the Carol Burnett-Julie An drews special, "Julie and Carol at Carnegie Hall." was named best music show; the way to get bal lots of New York Television Acad emy members is to give them a chance to vote for something smacking of prestige, and nuts to the content or the fact that the commercials sold tea from a box in Carnegie Hall. It is snob vot ing by those lacking the qualifi cations of snobs. Incidentally, the Emmy show started with brief, charming, pre taped remarks from a British Broadcasting Corp. (BBCI man via a satellite. After that, it was all downhill. The BBC should have handled the whole thing.

"DENNIS THE MENACE" AN' IT AA5 tf077An'Ml I COULD SEE MS 4A(P...FIU.'R LP A6AIN....AM' CACTUS M' ORDKRS INVESTIGATION NEW YORK (UPIl Mayor Robert Wagner ordered an inves tigation Friday into charges that inmates 'at a girls' youth house lived in worse quarters than "ani mals in the Bronx Zoo." Howard J. Ahclc. president of the Bronx Grand Jurors Associa tion, made the charges in a letter to Wagner. Abelc also called an annex to the youth house for girls in the Bronx a "breeding place for homosexuality." V V . , Tliere are slightly more than one million Negroes living In New loik City and they represent about 12 per cent of the city's population. (Ten years ago H was roughly 10 per cent and the in crease is the result of Negro migration from the South as well as the exodus of the white mid die class to suburbia, .since both movements show no signs of de cline, the percentage is expected to continue rising. I Nearly 35 tier cent of New York's Negroes live in Harlem and most of the others live in what might be called subsidiary Harlems in other parts of the city. There is no law enforcing this residential segregation, but to es cape from it is almost as difficult here as it is in communities where segregation has the official approval of local governments. And therein lies the difference between the racial conflict in Now York and the one that now is on the rampage in the South. For unlike the South, the civil rights struggle here is not a le gal problem. Best In Nation "New York City and New York state have the most enlightened civil rights laws in the country," says Stanley Lowell, chairman of tlie City Commission on Human Rights. And Negro leaders would be the first to agree. New York Negroes have no trouble exercising their right to vote: there are no legal barriers to school integration: the housing laws, both city and state, make it illegal for realtors to refuse rental or sale on racial grounds: and it is against the law to re fuse employment to Negroes be cause of race. "The Negroes in New York have won their battle for legal equality," said Lowell. "Now they are demanding true equality and make no mistake about it: They're impatient and angry and they're tired of listening to empty prom ises and platitudes." "The shortcomings of our laws are that they're all negative." Lowell said. '"You can enact leg islation forbidding people to prac tice overt discrimination, but you can't pass laws demanding em ployers to actively seek out qual ified Negroes and you can't pass laws forcing white Americans to accept Negroes as first-class citi zens. And that's what the while community must do. We must in crease our awareness of the Ne gro problem and we must do something about it before it blows up in our faces." Tension On Rise There has not been a serious race riot in New York since til-13 when racial tensions erupted in Harlem and quickly spread- to other parts of the city. Since then there have been a few minor skirmishes, "but these did not originate from racial problems as such," said Deputy Police Commissioner Walter Arm. Arm confirms the recent re ports that conditions in Harlem and other Negro areas have been more tense and hostile in recent weeks. "I don't know if it's a resent ment over what's been going on in Birmingham (Ala.) and other parts of the South or what, but tlie atmosphere is not good. Not good at all." he said. moor-rem) spring out. co.. iouijvuie. n BOURBON 7J years old The success of the "Ages" f J WOULD YOU BELIEVE THEY'RE MOVING.TODAY?
