Frankly Speaking By Frans Huberts The new television season is well under way and the critics) are rubbing their hands to tell everyone what’s wrong with television. On the whole,! tee-vee critics don’t like tee-vee. Matter-of-fact, sometimes it’s hard to figure out what they do like. Most of us common foik enjoy quite a few hours of tele vision per week. We are look ed down upon as lowbrows. But we’re happy. Well, I was hap py, but now that I’ve turned tee-vee critic, I, too, might wind up sounding like an old fuddy dud. Anyway, a quick look at this new television season. On Sunday nights, “Dennis The Menace,” continues it’s merry way, with a fine cast and a completely happy show; “Candid Camera,” with the welcome ad dition of Arthur Godfrey is, without a doubt, the best new show. Just plain terrific, for obvious reasons; “This Is Your Life” has switched to Sunday night, concentrating on today’s unsung heroes rather than on the more famous of our. citizens. lOn Monday nights the successor |to “December Bride,” has turned i out to be a lot of fun, thanks, l of course, to the talented Harry I Morgan. The addition of Cara Williams as the heretofore un |seen Gladys is a welcome addi tion, surprisingly enough. The 'Andy Griffith show (said he. sounding like all the others) Zm *i j/B lj [tit] j 'Mkj* Inl I * [CmM GENERAL ELECTRIC Filter-Flo® -l '..

That Berle Jackpot' Bowling show is the saddest of; the new entries. I sure wish we; could have the Berle of the early) television days, when it was] “anything goes,” and everybody] had fun. Comes Tuesday and one of the funnier fellas around comes on with a pretty good show. It's the Tom Ewell Show. Garry Moore’s show is, of course, enjoyable but the new gimmick, replacing Candid Cam era, suffers by comparison. Has It's a wonderful feeling! TO B! WEIL AGAIN AND IDE BILLS PAID!

TELEPHONE 6490 something to do with goofs made while making movies. Wednes day has brought forth two big new shows, “Aquanauts,” and tiie already well-milked, “My Sister Eileen.” Haven’t caught either of them yet. Thursday brings a new set of “'Bachelor Father,” adventures and they’re always good fun. Also, Ernie Ford returns. Hooray, hooray. I Friday brings the best new de . teetive series, “Lt. Dan Raven.” A fairly clever new gimmick, exciting stories and excellent acting by Skip Homeier. Re member him as the 12-year-old Nazi brat in “Tomorrow the World?” On Saturday Perry Mason is back with more excel lent stories and a new but equal ;ly harried district attorney. “Checkmate,” another hour-long detective series, follows. Perty good, too. There’s also “Tall Man,” in which Billy the Kid suddenly becomes a hero. Lots of other new shows to be seen, but haven’t caught ’em all yet. Some of the old favorites are back, other old favorites are missing, but all in all, this sea son has started out much bright er than the past few new tele vision seasons. There’ll be some more specials, although not on such a grand scale as before. There’ll be some more political debates, sports, educational pro grams, good programs, bad pro grams, tiresome commercials, some good commercial announce ments. The set will continue to blow tubes; the station will continue to lose its picture at crucial times. There’ll be lots more bad acting. Some more good acting, and by the time this season ends, another juicy scandal or two. Anyway, if it does get boring, set your dial iat channel 12. Nothing comes | in there, so you’ll have no com j plaints. Closing thought; A hundred men may make an encampment,] but it takes a woman to make a home. Lloyd Williams In European Exercise Army Sergeant Lloyd R. Wil liams, son of Mr. and Mrs. Percy L. Williams, Route 2, Edenton, participated with other personnel from the Seventh U. S.
