Or he may display—and eat— samples of an extinct but memorable product— penny candy—with critical comments on its taste. Or he may interview a naturalist who has brought with him a 10-foot alligator! Once in a while Garry joins the cast in presenting a takeoff on some popular TV show—such as “Arthur Godfrey and His Friends” or “I Love Lucy”—with most of the characters hopelessly but humorously miscast for their parts. All in all, it’s almost impossible to give a true picture of the show, but everybody on it seems to be having a good time—without straining. Garry’s rapidly expanding TV activities leave him little time for his hobbies; golf, sailing and a massive collection of jazz records, mostly old-time New Orleans stars ranging from Bunk Johnson to Louis Arm¬ strong. Now 35 years old with a wife and two sons, Garry is living the American dream with a home in Southern California. He still has one TV frustration to overcome however. Although his bow tie and crew cut are a joy to Housewives, Unincorporated, he still hasn’t won a sizeable male audience via TV. But don’t underestimate the talented Mr. Moore. It probably won’t be long until he’ll have the men applauding him, too. The Garry Moore Show is seen Monday through Friday at 12:30 p.m. on channel 4 (WCCO-TV). When TV came along, Garry quickly latched onto a show of his own. His daytime show (he says it’s Club Matinee all over again, with pictures) spots some playful pat¬ ter between Garry and announcer Durward Kirby, an old standby from Chicago radio days, some boyish clowning by Garry and plenty of music and guest stars. Vocalist Denise Lor, whose singing doesn’t inspire, but who has a very womanly figure, also gets into the comedy. Almost anything can happen on the show, which is conducted about as informally as a picnic attended by a bunch of old friends. Garry may sit on the edge of the stage and go into a lighthearted monologue about find¬ ing a better word for the title “housewife.” on the radio all night, constantly asserting that the latest trends indicated that Dewey was a sure winner. When morning rolled around, a hoarse Kaltenborn was still looking for that trend. The classic Moore comment came a few days later. “H. V. Kaltenborn had to spend election night sitting up with a sick trend.” TV FORECAST AND GUIDE 13
