5 Sylvania Television Awards (Awards were presented to George Gobel and the National Broadcasting Company.) * * * * "For the Documentary Program of the year, ’Three, Two, One. ..Zero’: The same team that brought us ’Victory at Sea' reconstructed in film and words and music the entire history of the atom, from its first mention in the days of ancient Greece to the most recent experimentr in harnessing it for peaceful use. The program presented the problem of the future use of the atom vividly and succinctly. The solution, as Dr. Albert Einstein has so aptly stated, 'lies in the minds and hearts of men.'" (Awards were presented to Henry Salomon Jr., producer and co-writer; and the National Broadcasting Company.) * * * # "For the finest original Teleplay of the year, ’Man On Mountain Top': There were many fine plays offered on television this year, but we believe Robert Alan Aurthur's study of an unloved genius who is reduced to the status of an intellectual freak was the best of them all. Arthur Penn's direction showed taste and sensitivity, and the program was blessed with a superb cast and excellent production. This play contained moments of sheer brilliance." (Awards were presented to Robert Alan Aurthur, writer; Arthur Penn, director; and the National Broadcasting Company, Man on Mountain Top" was presented on "Philco Television Playhouse. ) * * * * (more)
