Although Toby Robins' name
came up last on the list of cre-
dits on "The Defenders", she
had a good role and she played
it well. She was definitely the
most beautiful of the female
stars, but hardly looked like
the murderess one of the guests
thought she was. The name of
the play was "Poltergeist" and
concerned an evil spirit who
was believed to have commit-
ted a murder. Of course, it
wasn't the spirit at all; it was
the victim's wife! Actually,
it wasn't to hard to figure; she
was the only 'misfit' in the
group, except Lawrence Pres-
ton, and it certainly couldn't
be him!

It seemed odd that the stand-
out act on a variety show should
be a dramatic reading, but
that's exactly what happened
on Jo Stafford's show from Eng-
land, last week. The gorg-
eous British actress, Claire
Bloome, completely stole the
show with her beautiful read-
ings of poetry written by Edna
St. Vincent Millay. Even
Ella Fitzgerald who entertains
so royally and was at her finest
that evening, could not equal
the beauty of this great poetess
and her representative. These
few minutes made the entire
hour worthwhile in a show that
otherwise moved slowly and
begged for some excitement.

In case you thought you had
the wrong show when you tuned
in for 'Perry Mason' this week,
here are the facts, ma'am.
Perry, or Raymond Burr as he is
also known, was a bit under
the weather about a month ago
and entered hospital in Holly-
wood, where he underwent
minor surgery. In other words,
the scenes showing Perry con-
valescing this week, were no
dreamed -up gimmicks. They
were the real thing, shot from
a real hospital room where
Burr actually was spending his
days. He missed four segments
but is back at work now.
Bette Davis, the 'Constant
Doyle' of this episode, was his
first replacement and although
she filled it beautifully and
managed to win her case too,
it wasn't quite like having old
Per around. Among his other
replacements will be former
cowboy star Hugh O'Brian and
veteran actor Walter Pidgeon.
So if you thought, as I did,
that he looked like a very sick
lad on his latest show, it wasn't
imagined. By the end of Feb-
ruary though, he'll be back to
his old brilliant self, and the
ratings should be back at the
top once again.

Speaking of ratings, did you
know that the 'Beverly Hillbil-
lies' ratings which oppose Perry
Como's in the U.S., are so
high that Perry may be left at
home next year? It's true and
I feel sorry; I miss Perry and I
wish he were back on Canada!
He's trying to win by inviting
some of the biggest names in
Hollywood as guests, but I'm
afraid even that isn't going to
pull him out of the quicksand.
Unhappy news from Holly-
wood this week — Nelson Rid-
dle's young son Christopher is
in critical condition from being
hit by a car near their home in
Malibu, Nelson Riddle is a
composer, conducter, and ar-
ranger and about one of the
biggest names in big -band
sounds these days. He has
never been too successful as a
composer; none of his works
have become hits. Where he
really shines is conducting his
own band and writing most of
the great arrangements you hear
behind such singers as Rosemary
Clooney, Nat 'King' Cole, and
Frank Sinatra. Last year he
made a guest appearance on
CBC's 'Parade' with Miss Cloo-
ney and played some of his ar-
rangements. The entire music
world will be watching and
praying with him throughout
this anxious time.

Another news item out of
Hollywood flashed the news
that movie producer John Far-
row, 56, had passed away as a
result of a heart attack. His
name probably doesn't mean a
thing to you; he never became
as great as DeMille, Adler,
Kazan, or many others. Per-
haps this was because of the
fact that never a breath of scan-
dal touched Farrow, his lovely
wife Maureen O'Sullivan or
their seven children. In fact,
the only time I even remember
of them being in the news was
in 1961, when a tragic plane
crash claimed the life of their
eldest son, 18 -year-old Mich-
ael. Despite his quiet exis-
tence, he will be missed in
Hollywood, if for nothing else
but to show that happy and res-
pectable people still do exist
there. Miss O'Sullivan is now
appearing on Broadway in a
fine comedy "Never Too Late";
she is being replaced for a-
while. When she returns, peo-
ple will swarm to see the play
and to show their respects to a
fine show business family.

Noticed that Paul Kligman
and Don Francks followed their
roles as 'Mule and Abner Cart-
wheel' to New York on Sunday
evening, when Wayne and
Shuster repeated their 'Bonanza'
skit for the American audience.
This is the first time that the
leading roles in a W -S skit
have all been taken by Cana-
dians; it's a step up for Klig-
man and Francks, even if it is
on someone else's ladder!
Hon. Earl Rowe

Local readers of Liberty magazine were interested to find in
the February issue, a picture of Bob Lewis, former Provincial
Police officer in Wingham and now a member of the staff of
CFCH-TV at North Bay.
The caption beneath the pictur: in Liberty said: "In North
Bay, Ont., one of the more popular regular programs put on by
CFCH-TV is Northern Guide -post, which deals with the out-
doors. The 30 -minute co -hosts c.., tuhn Size and Bob Lewis,
and guests include sport stars and Lehi -and -stream experts from
