Television Emmy awards were
presented last Sunday evening in
a long, drawn-out production car-
tied live by CBS in the U.S. and
CBC here in our country. But it
looked more like a movie function
than a television deal. More and
more movie stars are moving
from the movie screen to.tlie little
bitty television screen. Not only
can they find better vehicles for
their talent amid television
scripts but there are many more
to choose from. And with rising
costs and poorer movies, more
people are staying home by the
toob than are going to film,
theatres; TV stars are more
widely known throughout the
world now than _ movie stars for
TV series are dubbed in several
languages.
Sunday evening's was a big
production with the stars out in
full force, beautiful people like
Ginger Rogers, Susan Hayward,
Connie Stevens, Mitzi Gaynor,
Steve Lawrence and Eydie
(porme, newcomers like Redd
Fox, oldtimers like Gale Storm
and Bob Cummings . ,who look like
they found Ponce de Leon's
Fountain of Youth and are hog-
ging it for themselves! And if I
missed gorgeous Barbara Rush
on Oscar night, there she was in
full bloom' on Emmy night steal-
ing the show; like they say in the
bizness, 'that dame's got class'!
Comedy awards were all taken
by "All in the Family" (best
series, directing; writing and act-
ing by stars Carroll O'Connor and
Jean Stapleton ). Supporting
awards, though, went to Mary
Tyler Moore's.co-stars, the actor
who plays her boss Lou Grant and
the actress who is her best friend
Rhoda (the latter was tied with
Sally Struthers from AITF) . , It
was .a disappointing evening for
Mary Tyle- Moore; • she lost to
Stapleton though her two co-stars
won and her other main co=star
and friend 'Cloris Leachman
earlier won an Oscar. I don't care
what you say; it's still Mary that.
makes the show!
Music -variety awards were
won by Carol Burnett's series and
Sonny and Cher's Hour; with
Dick Cavett taking the award for
best talk show.
In. the. dramatic series class,.
"Elizabeth ' R wakTnamed best
series and its star6Gle,nda Jack-
son was best series actress; di-
recting awards went to "The Bold
Ones", writing to NBC's Mystery
Iviovie; and Peter Falk who plays
a detective on a U.S. series called
"Columbo", edged out `Mannix',
`Marcus Welby', `Iro'iside' and
`Henry VIII' to take best series
dramatic actor award.
Awards are always given to the
best single programs of the year,
whether„ segments from a series
or single specials. The best single
musical was Jack •Lemmof's
special on Gershwin; it also won
for direction and choreography.
Writing of a special went to "The
Trial of Mary Lincoln". The best
performances by actresses . and
actor in a single show, went to
Glenda Jackson and Keith Mi-
chell in single episodes of "Eliza-
beth R" and "Henry VIII";. well
deserved though it would have
been nice to see Patricia Neil
recognized for her performance
in the Christmas special "The
Homecoming". The best single
show of the year was "Brian's
Song", a full-length feature
movie shown on the U.S. series
"Movie of the Week".
Earlier in New York, awards
were given to "Sesame Street"
for, best children's program-
ming; Jacques Cousteau for his
undersea documentaries; ' "The
Doctors" (best daytime serial) ;
Junior Auxiliary
BELGRAVE — Karen Scott led
the games -Saturday morning for
the Junior Auxiliary meeting in
the Orange Hall. President April
McBurney led in the opening
exercises. Roll call was in charge
of Sheila Anderson. Minutes of
the last meeting were read by
Connie Meurs and the treasurer's
report given by Dianne Scott.
Leaders for the next meeting
are games, Alison Roberts; sing-
song, Bonnie Walker; to help with
the -worship service, Cindy
Campbell; clean-up girl, . April
McBurney.
Patsy Scott helped with . the
worship service:. Lynne Haines
and Patsy Scott collected the
offering and April McBurney re-
cited the offertory prayer:
The girls were reminded that
there was a meeting on Thurs-
day, May 25. There will be no Sat-
urday. ' meeting. The seniors
worked on , Bible work and the
juniors on promise and stripe
work.
Sheila Anderson led in the sing-
song.
Living within one's means is all
very well, but I'd hardly call it
living.

and "Elizabeth R" for costume'
design.
As the Oscars once had, the
Emmy telecast had a problem:
too many people who get carried
away with acceptance speeches
and run the show much too long;
as one winner who had to wait un-
til close to the end pointed out, it
sure can create problems and I
guess more for those waiting
there than for the viewer at
home! Basically, though, had
they been able to remedy that
and kick Johnny Carson and
some of his jokes into outer
space, it would have been a good
show. The brilliant piece of film
editing on the medical show seg-
ment, helped break the monot-
ony; though Frank Gorshin's
routine wasn't up to the calibre of
many I've seen him do. One of the
highlights, I suppose, would have
to be Paul Lynde and the Chimp
presenting awards for best talk
show; who but Lynde would ac-
cept a spot like that and could
play the part so well.
Behind all the fun and laughter
that was apparent, there was one
dark cloud over the proceedings,
remembering that earlier in the
day one of TV's greatest stars,
Dan Blocker of "Bonanza", had
died suddenly in Hollywood.
