TV TolStypSy^CONTINUIO riOM fACI 3 TV is getting to be a snug harbor for a lot of people. Ex¬ bandleader RICHARD HIMBER has signed with NBC as a producer; ex-bandleader BERT DOWN now heads up station relations for CBS on the West Coast; ex-movie writer-producer CAREY WILSON has Joined CBS to help out with the network's 90-inlnute color spec¬ ials; and ex-baseball manager LEO DUROCHER couldn't talk his way past a Burbank studio usher on his first day as an NBC tal¬ ent relations executive. * * * Producers of TV film are getting off the color band¬ wagon for the time being.

Lengthy Demo¬ cratic convention would create a nightmare. * * * Another side effect: San Francisco hasn't enough hotel rooms for the 1500-plus radio and TV newsmen, commentators and techni¬ cians now expected--hundreds more than might cover a cut-and- drled convention. Some may be billeted 20-30 miles away, * * * National Association of Radio and Television Broad¬ casters will fight hard for uniform daylight saving procedure.
