met a number of performers who havenever gone beyond the audition booth.

One of them was a male singer, anamateur, who trembled so much that MissLatzko asked: "If you're this nervousnow, what would you do on the show?"The boy was candid, at least. "I woulddrop dead!" he said.

Another performer who missed was agirl who appeared for her audition in anextremely low-cut dress. When she sawMiss Latzko, she said: "Oh, excuse me,I thought I was auditioning for a man,"Another reject was the night club come-dian who brought a suggestive routinewith him, forgetting that television is afamily medium.

dancing is one of the oldest. Not sooddly enough, they've made a good mar-riage, and now dancing is one of themost important facets of television en-tertainment.

In his East Avenue studios, localdance master Val Mates is emphasizingover and over again the importance ofthe dance in TV.

A television stage is far more re-stricted than the much larger stages ofthe theatre. Because of the size restric-tions, TV dancing is a very specializedkind of action.

Each movement must be carefully con-trolled and checked to make sure it isalways within range of the camera.

Then-even though it might be inrange of the camera,. it must have ameaning easily apparent to the viewer.

Make-up and costuming help to setthe stage, and when the TV cameras areturned on and the action begun, the mes-sage of the dance is sent forth. Rehear-sal. rehearsal. and more rehearsal beforethe performance, and when it is all over-back for more perfection-making dancerehearsals.

TV Recent winners on Mort Nusbaum's "You Con Be A Stnr " pro-gram are Vol Motes pupils Elaine Dilmterio, Tommy McMahonand Mary Antrobus.

When you turn on your TV set, andthe figure'S of dancing people come onbefore you-it all seems pretty easy andcut and dried.

Well, it isn't. Behind each movement,and gesture, lies long hours of ardous re-hearsal.

TV is the newest of all the arts, and

Work seems easy when a career inshow business may lie in the offing.On opposite page are some of thekids grooming themselves fot a pow-der and greasepaint job with the TVcameras when their big break comes.From top left they are: (1) SharonLutz, Marlene Marciano and AliceKapusta; (2) Diane Duerr, PaulineTuttobene, Patty Ann Cubiotti; (3)Mary Schenk, Kenny Byrne; (4) Fran-cis and Frankie Thompson; (5) KarenHyland, Tommy McMahon; (6) SandyPieniaszek; (7) Joan Grabowski, Mar-garet Jerzak, Jean Schoenig, JoanByrne, Shirley Bell; (8) Marie Kirch-gessner, Cary Koeppel; (9) NancyRinaldo, Cory Koeppel.

ing Association, whose presidential cam-

paign is currently under way with NBC-

TV's Sid Caesar running against in-

cumbent Bobby Benson of the movies,

and Denise Darcel, the French reply to

Dagmar.

The NDA has been described as a non-profit, non-political organization, design-ed to promote good will among dunkers.Although he is not a candidate in thehotly-contested election, Red Skelton wasjust made a life member of the NDA forhis outstandinq contribution to the artof dunking.

When Caesar threw his cruller intothe ring he didn't know that Miss Dar-cell had also planned to enter the race.Somewhat shaken, he said, "Dunking'sfor men, know what I mean- When De-nise starts throwing those curves around,this ball game is going to he tough, evenfor me,"

NBC-TV under Gillette sponsorship. Lastmonth, Gillette sponsored the six-gameWorld Series between the New YorkYankees and the New York, Giants overNBC-TV, in the first coast-to-coast hook-up for the series.

The Army-Navy game will be the firstpart of TV's first double-header footballcoveraqe.

MUSICAL LADDEREach Rung Became A Major Achievemen.t For The YoungMusician Who Was Destined To Become As Famous In The

Quaker State As Wm. Penn Himself

FRED WARING/S

IS THERE ANYONE HERE that can'tremember a time when Fred Waringwasn't around?, It 'there is, go stand in a corner. Mr.

Waring has been on the scene since thebeginning of time. radio time. that is.Records. radio. movies. stage. and nowTV. The Waring organization has beenmarching along since just after music'was invented.

Actually, Waring himself started out50 years ago. -in a place called Tyrone.Pennsylvania. His father. mother, andbrother sang in the Methodist Churchchoir. That must have been the start of

it. because since then the choir and FredWaring have sort of gone together.

No one will ever 'see Waring play aninstrument. yet he's an accomplished musi-cian. Accomplished in getting the mostout of his orchestra.

When Fred was going to college,(Penn State) he decided to form a band.arid naturally got the name before thepleyers=- The Pennsylvanians.

When his fellow students came aroundfor auditions. they had to do three things.Read music. play an .instrument, and sing.The singing routine came from the ChurchChoir days, when Fred joined his farn-

TV GUIDE - PAGE 12

ily on the organ loft.After he got his singing mUSICIansto-

gether, the long road started. And it wasa very long road. No one wanted a bandthat sang as well as played. Most book-ers were satisfied to get a group thatcould just play and shut-up. But Waringkept insisting that the boys sing alongwith the playing, and he found himselfout of one job after another.

But very slowly, very gradually, andvery securely did the idea catch on, andabout 1922, Waring started to click.During the early days of radio, and mostof the big orchestras and bands kept pret-ty close to hotels. Instead of playingband stand dates, an orchestra wouldsettle down to a few months at a hostelry.Eating was regular, and the hotel alwayswanted an orchestra of its own.

Radio pickups were hotel ballrooms,and it was a long, long time before anorchestra moved inside a radio studio toplay.

Fred and his Pennsylvanians waited outthe years, and gradually built up a tech-nique all their own.

A glee club was added-to changemore than a hundred times in the en-suing years as the singers went on tosolo work-and the whole band was sortof put in the background as accompani-ment tothe singing.

Waring then started to realize he hada full scale organization, and in timehe became almost the front man for anestablished group.

He stood up in front and waved hisbaton, and looked like the leader, butactually he was a shrewd manager.

Some of the top musicians were hiredto arrange special music. Top choral di-rectors were trained to take over re-hearsals and thus save time for Waring.

Usually, the shows were' ready to gowhen Waring walked in for the finalrehearsals.

The Chesterfield Supper Club, a topradio show of the 30's, was the site forthe great Waring expansion. During theseyears and broadcasts, he became a house-hold word. Shrewd publicity helped.Some of the choral arrangements made

1J

jJ

for the broadcasts and hotel dates werepublished as "Waring" .arrangements. Af-ter the war, NBC decided on somethingnew in morning shows. Instead of diskjockeys, or soap operas, they tried usinga half hour musical program and Waringgot the nod. The program was enor-mously successful, and went on nation-wide tours, Waring still acting as theringmaster, so to speak, of this musicalcircus.

In each town the group was 00 appear,a special advance man would show 'upand hold choral clinics for high schoolmusicians. (By this time the Waringname was synonomous with choral work.)The name was built up and up, untilWaring got almost completely away fromhis orchestra and chorus and started intalking instead of leading the band. Dur-ing most of the sho';"s he would talk, andtalk, and many, of the cast left. One ofhis top notch arrangers, Gordon Jenkins,struck out on his .own, and made a suc-cess that matched Waring's.

Fred Waring, though, was a versatileman, and when 'TV came he was ready.His shows had resolved themselves intoalmost 30 minute musical comedies, builtabout one or another theme.

NBC lost Waring to CBS-TV, wherehe holds forth Sunday nights.

While we're here, we can't pass byone of the other Waring fame feeders. Ofan inventive mind, Waring set to worka few years back to devise inventions,and one was a smashing success-TheWaring Blender. A few more are stillon the fire,

And Mr. Waring is a smart business-man. Throughout many of his showshe keeps referring to Shawnee, Pennsyl- -vania, as the summer home of the or-ganization, It is, and Waring owns thesummer resort there. Each summer vocalclinics are held for singers and choir di-rectors from all over the country.

You can't pin Fred Waring, down toanyone field. He's a great many thingsall rolled into one, and his orchestra doesas he does-s-a great many things so hisprograms are usually filled 'With a gooddeal of variety. A good show, really.

Radio ISHere To Stay

Continuing study of the results of"Television Today." unprecedented sur-vey of the medium's effect on people andproducts. has revealed significant in-formation concerning the vitality andstrength of network radio. according toEdward Madden. NBC vice presidentin charge of television sales and opera-tions.

According to Madden. the surveydefinitely dispels the opinion. which ex-ists in some quarters of the broadcastingindustry. that. television's entrance intothe home eliminates radio listening.

"The figures show." ,Madden says.that. as one would expect. in TV horriesTV is the dominant medium. But thefigures also show that radio is still a vitalforce. even in TV homes."

These figures show that in televisionhomes. the average adult viewer spends135 minutes per day watching TV. 61minutes per day listening to radio. 47minutes reading newspapers and II min-utes reading magazines. This clearly in-dtcates that radio listening time (61minutes) in television homes is greaterthan the combined time spent on news-papers and magazines (58 minutes).

Expressed another way. the figures in-dicate that the average adult spends84% more time listening to radio thanreading newspapers. and 'as much timelistening to radio in one day as isspent reading magazines in an entireweek,

The survey reveals that the averagehousewife. in both TV and non-TVhomes combined. spends an even greateramount of time listening to radio.

Percentage-wise. the housewife's listen-ing time is 165% more than newspaperreading. and eight times greater thanmagazine reading.

~~OVER TH ETV FENCE"Marguerite Piazza, of "Your Show of

Shows" just turned down a Hollywoodbid. She would have been in a picturewith Mario Lanza, and refused to haveanything to do with it or him. Mr.Lanza is slipping badly on the radio andshe didn't want to go down the drain.If you've been wondering where Dagmarhas been the past few months, here'syour answer. She's doing the Vaudevillecircuit, and is now back for TV guestappearances ... A network offered mil-lions for the Tarzan pictures, and wasturned down, flat ... Has anyone aroundhere been catching that 5:45 P. M. showon WHAM - Ray [;, Bob. At lastthere are some comedians around withideas and humor. Perhaps they'll evenstay off TV to keep some of their originalideas. There's nothing much original onTV any more. Take, for instance, theJack Carson show. As dull, dead, anddisappointing as could be ... RochesterCity Club will go on TV soon, with ashort film of the principal speaker beinginterviewed by an official of the club ...Baseball players are reaping a harvest ofguest appearances on TV now that theFall world series is over ... Getting backto Dagmar, and who wouldn't want to,her ABC-TV show has been delayed. Afilm audition of it was made, and itRopped before prospective sponsors .. So,she's got to wait ... Dorothy Shay willappear with Jack Benny on his first TVshow of the season, Nov. 4. She'll ap-in a hill-billy scene ... The Royal Tourof Canada turning into a big freeze. Toomany officials, not enough chance for thefolks to see Lizzy and her husband. Butthe TV show of their arrival in Windsorwas hailed as expert work in inter-country relations ... Senator Taft madehis first TV appearance in his campaign

for the G.O.P. nomination on the KateSmith program. About time, too. He waswalking along the street to the studioand no one even recognized himMovie producers have "morality" classesin all their contacts. TV producers try-ing to introduce the same kind of highschoolish censorship into TV contracts

Gen-eral MacArthur was being considered fora speech and an appearance in Roches-ter. Everything was going well until thebackers found out the general's fee foran appearance would be $5,000. The ideawas quickly shelved ... The "StudioOne" production of MACBETH wasgood, but muddled. And the sight ofMacbeth's corpse shifting around on theset after his head had been cut off didn'tadd up to much accuracy ... Local poli-ticos seem to be avoiding TV in the cur-rent campaign. Wonder why? All theinterest that could be stimulated is for thebetter. As it is, political pundits wonder-ing whether anyone beside the candidateswill show up to vote " In England, aspeech by Churchill before 8th armyveterans was cut off TV.

BENvs

BOW TIES

When Ben Grauer gets a color televi-sion field-test assignment, he not onlytakes a bow but also wears a bow.

And during the current RCA-NBC ex-perimental color programs being presentedthrice-a-day, with Ben as narrator, he isin a rainbow-hued heaven because he canfall back on his wardrobe of 150 brightly-hued bow ties to wear before the camera.

On all his broadcast and telecast as-signments, Ben wears a bow. The onlytime he ever dons a four-in-hand is onthe Toscanni-NBC Symphony programs.

His favorites in bows are regimentalstripes and polka dots. He has no use forsolid colors and feels that the snap-onready-made ties are the bane of civiliza-tion.

"I can tie a bow in less than a minute,"Ben says, "but only on myself. I'm aHop trying to do one on another guy.Also, I can't do it if I use a mirror. Butit comes out perfectly, all ends matching,when I don't see it at all."

Ben's 150 bow ties are all of thestraight-and-narrow variety; butterfly de-signs only make him hot under the collar.

When Ben heard of his upcoming par-. ticipation in the RCA-NBC field-tests, heshopped the Fifth Avenue sartorial parlorsfor bright sports jackets. He ordered four,but all of them went back when ErnestWalling, director of the experimentalcolor programs, preferred a much-worn,brown-striped nubby tweed that Ben hadbeen wearing to the studio when he wasn'ton special color assignments.

NEW

NEWSTHAT'S

IFor the first time, the National Broad-

casting Company is making availableto television stations a fully scored dailynewsreel. Francis C. McCall, director ofTV News and Special Events said.

The seven and one-half minute news-reel on-the-spot words and sounds, plusnarration and music.

Cued scrips and spot sheets will ac-company each newsreel. ,To cover thedelivery interval, the NBC-TV news-room in New York will wire up-to-the-minute script revision each day, enablingstations with small news staffs to presentcompletely scored newsreels with mini-mum effort. Stations can run the filmsilent or with sound, at their discretion,and they can readily splice in local news,commentary and commercial announce-ments. Among the many advanages ofthis new NBC-TV newsreel is that itwill increase local station film librariesby 40' stories per week.

Films for the daily newsreel will besupplied by more than 100 NBC camera-men stationed round the world. Exclu-sive film services from outstanding for-eign film organizations will supplementfilm reports from such frontline cameraexperts as Charlie and Eugene Jones.NBC-TV news films have proved theirexcellence year after year on top-ratedprograms like the "Camel News Cara-van,"

NBC cameramen hit each story hard,catching both its significance and itshuman side.
