The next pre sentation concerning this dance craze will be “Hey, Let’s Twist,” | filmed right in the famous: Peppermint Lounge in New' York City. It’ll be at the Tay- j lor beginning the 14th. Two | vears ago Frank Sinatra started i his own record company, Re-| prise Records. Last year he 1 started his movie produc- j tion company and their com-j mendable first effort, “X-15,” j will be at the Taylor Theatre in another week. Part of the! movie “Back Street” consists of nothing less than a sloo.ooo j fashion show.

I j The famed folk-singing group, I The Weavers was barred from iappeaiing on the ’Jack Paar show recently because its mem i bers refused to take loyalty oaths, as demanded bv NBC. I Speaking of NBC, its board chairman, Robert Sarnoff, has recently taken the press to task for the rather incongruous act of urging the narrowest possi ble concept of freedom of the . press. It seems that the editor I of the Wall Street Journal, Ber nard Kilgore, is concerned about the weakening of freedom of the press and feels that media should be handled in somewhat | the manner the FCC licenses 1 broadcasting media. I j Montgomery, Alabama, voting ■ registrars are still demanding an apology from CBS which, on one of their newscasts, depict ed the voting registrars as using trickery to keep Negroes from registering . successfully. CBS said the voting registrars were I derelict in their duties: The I registrars demanded an apology, got one, but not to their satis faction. Veteran radio and television newsman, Howard K. Smith, has left CBS to join the staff of ABC news. There was a dis-, pute over his interpretations of | news events. Don’t think the owners of Time, and Life Magazines don’t get j around.
