Iry fiYN CONNEULT
T HERE is a Strange turn in the
rivalry between television and
movies these days ... As TV
quality increased, so did the mov
ies; then the movies went a step
further and decided to make screen
spectaculars of 3%-4 hours long
... So television decided to do
90-minute plays for the first time
... 90 minutes used to be the
length of an average film playing
the country . . . We still prefer
its length ... It has made a world,
of difference in TV plays, especi
ally on tiie new “Playhouse 90’’.
Since the program started this
fall we have yet to see one bad
play . . . Most of them have been
outstanding with really meaty
characterizations . . . Noteworthy
are the performances of Jack Pal-
ance as the punchy fighter who is
through in the ring but can't do
anything else for a living, and the
one of Ralph Bellamy as the hard-
driving tycoon who made his for
tune on the blood of others and
who struggles to save his business
for his sons, neither of whom have
any interest in it . . . The plays
were powerful, the acting superb
... So both TV and movies have
increased the length and quality
. . . what comes next?
PLATTER CHATTER
CAPITOL:—It was little more
than a decade ago that Frank Si
natra was the swoon king just as
Elvis Presley is today . . . Like
Presley, Frankie suffered through
the critics' scorn . . . “He won’t
last,” “he has no voice,” etc. were
some of the more common re
marks.
Today, Frankie is the hottest
act in show business . . . He has
proved that he does have a voice
and It’s better than ever . New
singers constantly seek to emulate
his style, and—in addition, he is
a terrific actor . . All of which
brings us to his latest album,
“This Is Sinatra!” A real must,
with Frank doing all the songs he
popularized along the road to the
top.
■\X7HEN I returned to my home
' ’ town for a visit after a few
years I looked at the sleepy rail
road station with the strange feel
ing of never having been away.
Bin Harper, the ticket agent, shook
my hand and began pointing out
the changes: modernized store
fronts, a new traffic light, some
freshly planted trees. Then he said
casuaDy, “Another big change,
too—Laura Wade’s married. Fel
low named Paul Shephard—just
moved in a year ago.”
“No!” I was amazed. She had
been crazy about Carl Reed. He
was a real catch. The expensive
presents he used to bring Laura
had been the talk of the town.
I knew Carl well, having worked
as his assistant when he took over
the factory that practically fed the
town. He was a tall, good-looking
man with a driving manner that
everybody admired. But person
ally I’d never cared for him. I’d
felt that there was buried deep in
him a Certain coldness, a lack of
feeling. At any rate, he was a fine
efficiency expert and had im
proved production with time
studies and elimination of waste.
“Paul’s just a plain guy,” Biff
continued. “Nothing like CarL
Works as a clerk and makes
sixty bucks a week.”
At my hotel I was determined
to get to the bottom of the mys
tery. I gave Laura a call, and she
invited me out to meet Paul.
Laura’s greeting was a pleasant
surprise, for our long-standing
friendship had suddenly cooled
when I had expressed my lack
of enthusiasm for Carl Reed.
She led me into a small, inex
pensively furnished living room.
Paul, she told me, had not yet
come home from work. “He’s
wonderful,” she said softly. And
then suddenly, “You were right
about Carl, you know. You and
I are probably the only ones in
town who know the coldness be
hind that genial front.” ,
I stared at her, wondering what
was coming. “One afternoon
Carl’s mother asked me to tea.
When I stopped to hang my coat
in the hall closet, I noticed it was
filled with packages—all marked
with my name. Also a date:
birthday, Christmas, engagement
anniversary—with a notation as
to contents. One had an expen
sive shawl, another a bracelet.”
Laura’s eyes were cold. “All Carl
had to do was reach in and pick
out a package for the right date
when it arrived . . . The efficient
Romeo!”
At that moment Paul walked
in—a more ordinary guy I’ve
never seen. “Heard a lot about
you.” He grasped my hand and
then handea Laura a small flor
ist’s box.
She took out a bunch of violets
with a gasp of delight. “Darling,
what a lovely surprise!”
“I coludn’t resist them,” he
said, smiling. “They’re the color
of your eyes.”
On her way to the kitchen for
a vase, she paused, gave me a
wink, and murmured. “Flowers
and love are perishable—they
can’t be stored in closets.”

W HEN you’re serving toasted,
buttered buns for the
“bread” in a meal, give them a
dash of Parmesan cheese Just be
fore they come to the table for
that extra flavor.
Open-faced hamburgers are
easily made. Simply spread bun
halves with mustard, then spread
on seasoned hamburger all the
way to the edge. Broil until done.
If you’re making ham loaf out
of leftovers, give it a dress-up
treatment by studding with red
cherries, brown sugar and whole
cloves. It’s wonderful for flavor,
too.
Diced cooked potatoes are really
delicious if you place them in al
heavy skillet with butter and
