HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Seaforth News, 1960-05-19, Page 7Inside Stuff En Television For a man who has gone through the meat grinder, the Grand Old Man of gag writing, Goodman Ace, looped curiously serene, Sprucely attired in black - and -white hound's - tooth s check Nit, he gnashed on a 6 -inch cigar and dead -panned: "I haven't watched much TV lately. I do turn on Channel 3 occasionally. It gives a little light and we can sit around and read and talk to each other." There is, of course, no Chan- nel 3 in New York, but this sort of whimsical altivity befits Ace's present mood, Next season he re- turns to the warm bosom of the NBC "Perry Como Show." But MIAs • he is still licking his wounds from an experience with CBS's "The Big Party," a 90 -minute big -budgeter that started suc- cessfully this season, then col- lapsed. "The Big Party" was sponsored by Revlon, the cosmetics firm that in previous semesters had backed such suspect quizzers as "The $64,000 Question" and "The $64,000 Challenge." Rumors have been trickling out all season about sponsor interference and spilled blood backstage, and now Aee confirms it. For Ace, reputedly the highest paid gag- man in the business (he once earned $11,500 a week with Como), his stint with Revlon and its cross -grained president, Charles Revson, was a classic case of hamstringing by a spon- sor. Scheduled to do fifteen ('Big Parties," Ace walked out in disgust after six. Shortly after, the sponsor junked the whole show. "I had conceived the show." recalled Ace with a flourish of his cigar, "as a kind of show - business party — a bunch of act- ors -sitting around, discussing politics, show business, anything Then someone would go to the piano and do a song or two. Revson and. I had a couple of run-ins even before the first show. He'd talk about the master of ceremonies, and I'd say: "But there is no emcee.' Then he'd mention the runway the guest stars would come out on, and I'd say. 'But there Is no runway.' I finally told him: `I think they've sold you the wrong show.' "After the first show, the thing became a mess. Revson thought singing and dancing were the Only kind of entertain- ment there is. They cut out the dialogue almost completely. There were actually meetings in Which show business was ex- plained to me. I dont know what they thought — that they had `picked me off the streets, maybe. "At the end, I told them: 'I did the best you could'." Ace, a tall 60 -year-old with a silver thatch, wrote for Como for four years. He and Como parted amicably last June when Goody decided to experiment with Rev- lon. "We'll try to work out a few new things on the Como show. A couple of shows in France and Italy, maybe, Perry and 1 get along just fine," said Ace with a grateful sigh. "I'm not tired or upset. l haven't even seen Revson since the first show. But someday I'm going to write a Broadway revue based on what went on. I think It would make a great show." —From NEWSWEEK DRIVE CAREFULLY — The life you save may be your own. PSYCHOLOGICAL WARRIOR — Just the sight of this soldier, dressed in chemical, radioactive protected gear, could send the enemy running in fear. The practical, but not beautiful, costume is seen during maneuvers in Germany. One Time The Clown Played it Straight Max Baer's career remains one of the greatest enigmas of the fight game, Possessed of a tre- mendous physique and a master of scientific boxing strategy, he never wanted to fight. In fact he hated it. He preferred to clown his way through the ring, in- stead of proving his ring great- ness, The clue to his failure to live up to his potential was his atti- tude after his powerful blows killed Frankie Campbell in 1930. After that he just toyed with his opponents and clowned through his fights — that is until the night of June 8, 1932, when he met Max Schmeling at New York's Yankee Stadium, In his fight with Schmeling, Baer reverted to his old form and the 60,000 cheering fans saw a raging tiger with the killer in- stinct of the jungle, stalking his German opponent. And the rea- son was that the Jewish blood of Baer's veins was boiling at Hitler's progroms and be vent his spleen on Max Schmeling, of Hamburg, the symbol of Nazi Germany's ring might. Before a wildly cheering, jam packed stadium Baer virtually slaughtered Schmeling. For ten action packed rounds, Max Baer, the tamping thumper from Livermore, Calif., threw every- thing he had at his opponent. The result was a decided upset, since Schmeling had been ruled a favorite at odds ranging be- tween 2 and 4 to 1 before the battle. The contest was waged partly for the benefit of the House of Cavalry Cancer Hospital in the Bronx, The gross receipts were $250,000 and the institution re- ceived 10 per cent of the gross up to $200,000 and 5 pgr cent of the receipts beyond that figure, The finish came dramatically, spectacularly, after 1 minute and 51 seconds of the tenth round. In a surprising recovery from an apparent collapse of form after a sizzling beginning, Baer caught Schmeling with one of the hun- dreds of right-hand punches he had aimed at the German's head. The blow Ianded like a bolt of lightning on the chin. As the punch landed, Schmeling's knees REUNION — Chicago airport was the scene of this poignant drama as Mrs. Anne Prunskis, 73, was reunitrd with her fam- ily for the first time in 20 years. She was given permission to emmigrate from Uilhuanio by Soviet Premier Nikita Khrush- aihev. Here, she kisses the hand of her son, Rev. Joseph Prunskis. buckled, his body started to sag and he began to crumple to the floor. But, with that courageous- ness for which he has been noted, Schmeling instinctively forced himself erect against his infuriat- ed foe. It was typical of Schmel- ing, but what Baer did was not typical of the usually clowning Baer. He blazed away at his stagger- ing foe, a helpless figure, an un- protected target. Baer battered Schmeling around the ring under a shower of pile -driving rights to the jaw until, finally, Schmel- ing collapsed under a terrific right to the jaw, which dropped him in his tracks, The German lay motionless for a brief spell after he hit the ring canvas. One, two, three, four seconds were tolled off before he pulled himself together. Around and about Schmeling the scene was a veritable bedlam. Men and women were frantic, some for Baer, who towered over his prostrate foe, ready to strike him down again should Schmel- ing arise. The cries of thepopulace were combined in an ear-splitting clin that was lost on Schmeling. Six, seven, the count proceed- ed, and Schmeling was getting up, Eight, and he was on one knee about to rise. Nine, and he was on his feet, swaying crazily, arms dangling at his side, his eyes glassy, but his face was to the foe and his instinct led hint forward to his own ruin. Baer, with the urge for victory surging within him and the op- portunity of a lifetime at hand, leaped at his foe. He piled into Schemling and drummed savage rights to the German's head and jaw in an effort again to beat down the former world's champ- ion, Crazily Schmeling careened about the ring, helpless and in- capable of protecting himself. Finally the German backed to the ropes near a neutral corner. Baer then punched and punched to the head and Schmeling in- stinctively threw up his leaden arms in an attempt at protection. Finally Referee Arthur Dono- van, convinced that Schmeling was helpless, stepped between the gladiators, signaled the end of the battle and gave Baer a technical knockout victory over a fighter whom many had picked to defeat him. There could be no criticism of Referee Donovan's intervention, because never was a ring arbiter more justified in leaping to the rescue of a helpless boxer. An- other punch to Schmeling's jaw or head might have proved of serious consequences, Schmeling was beaten and through. He was as thoroughly knocked out as ever a man was. although he was standing on his feet at the finish. "I have no fault to find with the referee for stopping the' Sight," Schmeling said in his dressing room after the fight. "The punch that put me on the floor hurt and things might have resulted seriously if Donovan hadn't intervened. "Until the tenth round I wasn't bothered much by Baer's right. What did trouble me was his backhand punching, which threw ale off my stride continu- ally. And I was not my normal self after the fourth round. I felt tired and couldn't put any snap in my punches." Baer snatched his victory from what looked like imminent de- feat and scored as many ilacl pre - dieted in advance he would if only he would be serious long enough — by a knock -out, Even Joe Jacobs, Schmeling's manager, said before the strug- gle, that it would be a hard fight for eight or ten rounds, Nobody had advance warning of what was to happen. Baer started like a human tornado and petered out, as if the intense heat from the over -head ring' lights, the plodding set burning pace of S'hEmiing,'and the ]at- ter's sheet, p'twcrful punches, t,: ere all exacting Miser toil, and CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING BABY CHICKS BRAY has Ames for ecortonrloal, high epee(' white or brown egg production, dayeid, some started.
